Are we ourselves when we dream?

Bruce and CRT.

I think I've reached a point where IPA's are no longer good for me. I mean, I think I've known this for awhile, but I just spent a week in Vegas drinking mixed drinks and didn't have amy of the stomach issues I typically have. I know IPA's are gut bombs, but I still tend to drink a few a week with friends or with dinner. So if they are off the menu, I gotta decide what type of booze hound I will become. Bourbon? Rum? Tequila?

Is that the girl from Starship Troopers?

People don't like change, even if it is at the expense of progress. Maybe it's an Amish thing?

Electric and hydrogen.

Petrol cars suck, though.

It probably works better in black and white, but I don't get it. Is it supposed to be making fun of The Munsters?

Just got back from 4 days in Vegas. We stayed at The Circa in downtown. It was fancy drinks, good food, and some very warm workouts.This one was called Paint the Town Red: One of the highlights was swimming at the UNLV pool. You can get a guest pass for $10, and it is a super nice campus and facility to check out: I peed on the Berlin Wall at Main Street Casino: My wife really wanted to make the run down to the Vegas signs near Stratosphere one morning, but it was about 97 degrees by 7 AM, so she was struggling. It is about 2 miles there and 2 miles back, but in the heat it can be a real grind. Heat doesn't seem to bother me as much. There is a beautiful memorial in the Arts district to the people who died in the 2017 shooting. I always like to swing by Oscar's steakhouse and order these meatballs. They remind me of my Italian grandmother. Art: It was a great trip. Now back to real life!

I started playing Sea of Thieves with my son. He's much better at it than I am. Basically I get to steer the ship while he runs around doing the important stuff. It's a strange game.

It will be interesting if they manage to incorporate the satirical nature of the original Robocop. At first it looked like a pretty bland shoot 'em up, but the CEO stuff was spot on. Considering Spec Ops: The Line is the only shooter I've bothered with in the last couple decades, I'm slightly intrigued if they can make it more than a murder simulator. Cheesy satire at its finest.

It was a lot easier to adjust finances in my 20's than it is in my 40's while supporting a household with kids and a wife. For example, skipping a season of hockey for myself as an adult is fine, but it is a lot harder to tell my kids you can't play because we don't have the money. I'll be managing debt until they are grown up, most likely.

Today's day and age is way less censored, so I'm not sure what you mean. Steam is loaded with explicit games.

Is it Judge Dredd? He is in WH40k, right?

I did the same about a year ago and have yet to play it. *fistbump*👊

But what if KD joins Jokic in Denver?

We just got back from a family trip to Universal Studios in LA. We stayed at the Safari Inn, which is kind of a little historical icon that also is a fairly affordable family motel. Universal Studios was fun. We've visited before and it just tends to be a much more chill park than Disney. But it was pretty hot and we didn't spend too much time in the park itself. Instead we spent a fair amount of time exploring Burbank, which is a pretty interesting movie studio town. My daughter really wanted to visit the Hollywood Museum. I took her, but I told her it is a rough part of town compared to Burbank. It is right on Hollywood Blvd along the walk of fame. My kids are pretty good at navigating San Francisco and they understand how dense cities can dramatically change street to street, but my daughter's words were "I'm glad we went to the museum, but now we don't ever have to go back to that area." I think we will do the Warner Bros. Studio Tour next trip.

I am not an expert on jets, but I did crash my parents Saab 900s into a tree as a teenager.

Just like Fallout 3 was Oblivion with guns, I expect Starfield to be like Fallout 4 in space.

To be fair, if the interviewer doesn't understand the albatross metaphor, do you even want to work with them?

As long as they are facing Mecca, it seems reasonable to me. 😉

Despite their flaws, I always end up enjoying Bethesda games and getting a decent chunk of hours into them. The exception is Fallout 76, but Starfield seems light years better than that train wreck, so that's good.

I got hooked on a fun little game called Spellcaster University last night. I had actually picked it up on GoG, but then I noticed I had gotten it for free through Amazon Games awhile back. I always forget about those free games they give through Prime. Anyways, the game is a pretty fun simulation of running Hogwarts.

As GD said, less than 1% of abortions are done in the 3rd trimester, and there are usually extenuating circumstances in those cases. These are women that have probably picked out a name, had a baby shower, maybe even setup a nursery. They have to make a tremendously difficult decision and it should only be between them and their medical professional. No politician or pastor should have say in it.

Kids aren't even cold in the ground from Uvalde.
