Your last meals\final request
Malc I am a little disappointed you are not sharing traditional Caribbean food or maybe some Caribbean dishes as " Best 5 ", I understand you cant assume someone from a region enjoys the local cuisine but I always enjoy learning about other peoples food interests because for me its part of understanding other peoples culture and or interests But I understand if you prefer not to go into detail

I must tell you whenever you mention stories of heading off to Cold Creek or getting away from society and camping with the dogs I am always envious....you sometimes mention you cook fish you have caught....it seems like a such a sense of freedom and connecting with nature. Do you know I have never been fishing in my life....its sad and unusual because many people in my family fish a lot but no one in my direct family So I have this possibly naïve vision of fishing and being one with nature where its .....good fun? Relaxing I imagine But I love the idea of catching and eating my own fish Just to add I have friends who have offered to take me fishing and I must take them up on the offer

Firstly thats very honest, candid, emotional and loving things to say about your marriage, please tell your husband how lucky I think he is to be married to you However I realize my original objective of this post has been misunderstood and thats my fault for how I framed the first post. This was supposed to be a good news post where you post your 5 favorite meals but in order to really think and post " well what are my 5 favorite meals " its harder than many people think especially when we are surrounded by such great food and variety ...look just how Gfted1 and myself changed our minds in the beginning So these types of questions normally get framed with an emphasis that allows our minds to focus on that thing to get the " best 5 " meals instead of procrastinating which is easy to do So in other words, this is not about the final days or end of the world scenario that you are thinking about .....its about your 5 best meals I hope this makes sense and Im sorry for the confusion.....you not suppose to take it so literally but I am glad you did because now I can clarify what I was asking

You right, Im not suggesting Covid is the end of mankind at all. Once the vaccine is out our lives will definitely start returning to normal and I cant wait But dont you have favorite meals you love and would want to eat if hypothetically you had 5 days left on the earth?

Thanks, I did some reading on this and it discusses UK military intervention in numerous ME conflicts But its not covert military intervention or what the Anonymous article suggested that the UK is involved in " military crimes ". The UK parliament officially supported Operation Shader as a legitimate UK military intervention. https://www.forces.net/news/three-years-op-shader-1500-airstrikes-against-islamic-state I also see there are small groups of UK soldiers deployed to Syria so I was wrong to say " the UK has not deployed military " But my point was really how Anonymous has mischaracterized the UK global role it has played in legal military intervention

Sup All Without sounding morbid the pandemic has changed many things for the world and despite the important advancements mankind has made we are still globally impacted by things that none of us can control....like Covid The pandemic has reminded me of the brevity of life and how sometimes we take things for granted like going to a bar and restaurant, freedom of movement and spending with family and friends and the significance of relationships If you had one day left on this world what would be your favorite 5 " last meals " ....its hard because most of us love our food and there is so much food I enjoy but I have made the list below A good Sunday roast, Pork or Beef and all the relevant side dishes like Yorkshire Pudding or roast potatoes with gravy Pork Spare Ribs A full English breakfast Pizza ...yeah, good old Pizza...you cant go wrong Cheese Fondue What would be your 5 favorite " last meals "

You right I am afraid, its a terrible time to be a Socialist ....what dont you switch sides? And its easier than you think. It starts with something incredibly simple but symbolic....you change your forum name to " CapitalistMaster " , personally I think its got a nice ring to it ?

Malc have you heard from volo recently, he has been conspicuous by his absence ? I hope he is okay, I know he didnt believe in wearing a mask so I hope his silence isnt related to the virus

The stupidest rpg companions.
Im not sure, there is a Mod that silences there comments and general noise if you find that annoying https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectandromeda/mods/745 But I am not sure why you would want to, outside of your criticisms, remove your squad from planet deployments because sometimes there are quests and missions dependent on a specific squad member being in the squad and commenting ? And you will undermine any Romance arcs if you didnt have a squad in deployment IMO So I would contend your squad is an intrinsic part of the overall Bioware RPG experience ....I doubt I would play any of there games if there wasnt this gaming mechanic

You really must use Mods, I am currently playing MEA and that is not my experience at all..my squad plays an effective part in all combat Here are some good " squad " Mods that should address your issues https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectandromeda/mods/359 https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectandromeda/mods/812

Also there is no forum rule that says people have to comment on any topic they feel is repetitive or banal...if you dont like a topic thats okay but other people may want to comment

Links ? I particularly want to read how what you mentioned is an example of " Law-abiding British taxpayers continue to sponsor dozens of military crimes committed all over the world"

Politics 2020
Several reasons but based just on the conspiracy theory link Dark provided it talks extensively about British troops being active in Syria British troops werent deployed to Syria, there was no reason for the UK to do this so if you can find me just one credible link discussing this from any international news network website, like Al Jazeera if you dont trust other media houses, I will definitely read it and possibly change my opinion on this The only information I can find discuss possible deployments in 2019

Nah, no real issues with companions that are significant or long lasting. My party companions always have a purpose and function that matters in my RP journey I simply dont chose people in my party that are annoying and or stupid

I read the general summary and I find it hard to believe, whenever I read a generalized statement like " Law-abiding British taxpayers continue to sponsor dozens of military crimes committed all over the world " I become very skeptical about anything after that in this type of " exposé "

You make some reasonable points and I agree with some of them But just to share something with you around the global immigration problem and how regions and countries deal with it. There are different levels of abuse and sometimes not much abuse of immigrants as the immigrants also benefit For example you mentioned the ME and countries like Saudi Arabia and Qatar, this region has been notorious for unfair labor practice for years in certain economic sectors like construction and house keeping, I have travelled many times to the ME and this is true. But this is not the same reality as citizens in countries like USA, EU, Australia or SA face around illegal immigration The ME brings in laborers and workers but they fly into the ME and only once they start working or sometimes at the airport there passports get confiscated and they have no choice but to accept certain work contracts which can be very unfair However with the other countries I mentioned immigrants dont fly into these countries because obviously the fact they dont have papers would be determined at the airport and custom checks and they would be refused entry. So the difference is illegal immigrants arrive at borders and enter the country illegally...but they are not prevented from working for different companies or taking daily jobs because there passports aren't necessary but the work is all in the informal sector in the example of the USA or where companies break the law and hire people without papers But the good news is the ME countries are changing slowly and committing to fair labor laws and recognizing workers rights https://www.bwint.org/cms/qatar-bwi-welcomes-important-progress-for-workers-rights-1997
