I've just resigned myself to the fact that he's going to say a lot of stupid things, and stopped trying to filter for common sense. His close supporters just tend to make up random stuff to fit the sputum, so it's difficult to take serious.

Finished my first play through, which included the first DLC. It was fun, but I didn't much care for the inventory system and having to keep perusing it for better equipment. There has to be a better approach. I also didn't feel like it has high replayability, so I'll wait until more DLC comes out before returning. Finally, choosing talents is awkward because a number of them expect you to know your character build but won't let you examine it. By the end of the game I almost didn't care what talents I chose, so I just picked the next available.

This drug is the 'breakthrough of the year' — and it could mean the end of the HIV epidemic The good news: an amazing drug find that can potentially stop the HIV epidemic in Africa The bad news: almost nobody with HIV can afford the drug

The DJT campaign has already pledged to pardon the J6 participants, so the precedent is pre-existing. Trump reportedly promises January 6 pardons ‘in the first hour’ of his presidency or sooner – US politics live The optics would be much better if Biden targets political people who DJT would intentionally go after, and if Biden does it in a bi-partisan fashion. For example, members of the January 6th committee; people who worked to prosecute DJT in any manner; selected leaders of Congress, the FBI, and DoJ; and key election workers in disputed states. It should probably be limited to the last decade, when DJT was politically active.

I tried watching the original series in dubbed French, but I just found it really annoying for some reason. The English remake is okay even though it's a police procedural, and she has that quirky character going for her.

Finish Rogue Trader after 86 hours. It was mostly pretty good, with almost no bugs. I'm not sure how much replayability it's going to have, so I'll wait for the rest of the DLC before trying again.

Considering that Biden was criticized for (supposedly) choosing DEI cabinet picks over competence, I'm finding it ironic (and amusing) that DJT is now choosing personal loyalty over competence. What goes around comes around.

With a pro-Putin Presidency in the bag, Russia may feel free to slow their operations in the Ukraine and move forces to Syria. Putin won't want to lose that ally.

Presumably when DJT deploys troops to tackle immigration issues, somebody will need to take the heat if and when things go horribly wrong. I'm betting that will be the Defense Secretary. Bump... bump.

I'd be a little surprised if DeSantis accepts the post. Governor of a large state such as Florida is a stepping stone to a future Presidential run. Defense Secretary is a stepping stone to being DJT's lap dog, and a future date with bus tires.

Now if you only let the chimps reproduce when they type out valid words, eventually you might evolve a species that could read and type out Shakespeare's works. Problem solved.

For the chills...

Our power finally came back on after being out for two and a half days. That cyclone knocked out power over a big area of our county. Normally I'm used to a few hours outage during a winter storm, but this is the longest in my memory. My sleep schedule is all messed up now, but at least I can finally have a warm shower. I hope this type of storm doesn't become a regular thing, what with climate change and all.

I wonder what DJT has in mind for MTG? If I had to guess, I'd say Secretary of *COUGH*racial purity*COUGH* Homeland Security.

Probably my favorite indie band, but I always thought they were English. Nope, Canadian.
