Huh, bummer. I wonder how much of an end the game has? It looks like it has a pretty solid foundation. It's surprising they couldn't get someone to pick it up. I don't blame a solo dev for walking away though. There is a reason game development teams are huge nowadays.

I enjoyed that John Candy doc as well. The other doc I watched recently was My Mom Jayne, which is Mariska Hargitay's investigation into her mom. It was phenomenal. I expected a nice feel good story about Mariska learning about her mom who died when she was only 3. But instead I got this incredibly complex family story filled with all sorts of revelations. It was really just jaw droppingly good. I knew very little about the whole story, but it was super engaging.

Starcom: Unknown Space - I grabbed this on GoG for cheap and it has been fun. It is lot like Star Control. Less silly, but still has lots of weirdos to meet and planets to explore. It's good. I never played the first one, I guess this is a sequel, but they don't seem too connected.

There is a story, and it does lead to some conflict with these robot things. But it is mostly exploring and resource management.

I definitely agree with Obsidian being the S-tier games. Bit surprised the Pathfinder games aren't lower, and Wasteland is a bit low for my tastes. But overall I agree with most of it. It would be interesting to see this with the FPS RPG's like Skyrim, Kingdom Come, and Avowed.

Yeah, majestic grudge watches every episode for some reason.

It's a Tyrantifa Rex, be careful.

Rings of Power is great, so you should give it a try.

WoT was less than zero, so I don't know what that does to your math. Negative number x 100%?

It seems overly complicated. I think they needed to release a tutorial, this looked like some sort of mid-game thing.

Judging by the Pathfinder games, it won't be.

I did a teacher training with the Marines a couple years ago. It was surprisingly progressive, and the explanation was we need to constantly recruit teenagers, and we can't afford to turn off young people. That doesn't mean it is easy or the bar is low. Far from it, they were really pushing for the kids that want to further their education, because the military will pay for it. Anyways, I haven't seen recruitment numbers recently, but I would think they are going to take a hit. I'm sure they'll just bring back he draft to compensate. That will be popular.

This made me miss @Krookie

I liked that Superman was weird. The new one really embraced the bizarre, and I thought that was the right choice after the seriousness of the Zach Snyder stuff. Peacemaker is also goofy and weird and I'm enjoying that too.

Looks like Jimmy Kimmel is coming back Wednesday, which is was either the plan all along, or Disney desperately trying to hit the undo button after getting lambasted by everyone that isn't on Team Maga. My guess is the latter.

Wartales has a new expansion coming out that lets you create your own fief. I've been playing through the Pirates of Belarion and enjoying sailing the high seas. I also started a new game of Return to Moria. It has been awhile and they've added a lot, but the big thing I'm looking forward to is the next expansion, which will add other dwarves and exterior areas. So my dwarf has been swinging his pickaxe, singing some songs, and preparing for company.

Tuesday I gave a whole lesson on the 1st amendment and free speech. I addressed the Charlie Kirk shooting, but my focus was mostly on the freedom of religion, speech, media, and protest that the 1st amendment covers. Now the FCC has pushed a network to remove Jimmy Kimmel from his late-night show. He wasn't removed because of costs or ratings, he was removed immediately after the FCC made threatening statements. I'm not sure how to proceed with my lesson. edit: Also what the hell is happening that the head of the FCC is going on podcasts? Like when did that become a thing?

Huh, I read the remark and it doesn't seem to say anything about Charlie Kirk.

Zion is one of my favorites. Hiking the Narrows with my wife and kids was just magical. Glad to hear you are doing well.

Today in class a kid ran up, got really close to my face, and whispered "I feel like I'm going to throw up." Just go to the nurses office, kid. You don't need to throw up on me.

Robert Redford

I'm pretty sure he will be held up as a martyr for longer than a year. Also, the Valhalla thing is super weird. This guy is the director of the FBI? The reality is this was a mentally ill person, but instead of focusing resources on mental health, which has been in crisis for decades, people will just attack each other over identity politics.

I mean, it starts in Mosul during the day, but there are a lot of dark parts. Probably not as bad as the first one.

I've been watching Terminal List: Dark Wolf and enjoying it. It isa very good military thriller. The first series focused on Chris Pratt and was a bit more revengy. This one has Taylor Kitsch and is more spy thriller. I like it better. Also Kitsch is my new favorite actor. I didn't know he played pro hockey. His whole personality changes when he starts talking about it:

Does South Korea know we lost the Korean war?
