Pretty much the title. I’ve been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality....
They ain’t getting a dollar or of me. Didn’t buy D4, what a toxic, problematic company. I miss the classic Blizzard I grew up with, but that comany, it’s talent and passion died in '08.
There’s been a few studios from former Blizzard employees. Just yesterday I got an update about Stormgate which is being made by Frost Giant Games. There’s also Dreamhaven, Gas Giant Games, and notorious studios.
Maybe it’s more about the legal requirement for infinite profit due to being publicly traded. This has led to such fun things like, rising costs, planned obsolescence, the general enshitification of everything.
It’s way over hyped. Especially the fries. Because people think they’re getting a crapload and not the amount they payed for in a tiny container.
I walked into a five guys once cuz I was out of town and ask for a California burger, figuring someone who worked at a burger place would probably know what toppings I wanted. The cashier looked at me like I was stupid. So after explaining what toppings to put on, I got the most disappointing $20ish meal. Dry, flavorless, and way to much salt. I honestly would have been happier if I had just gone to a Burger King or McDonald’s or Arby’s.
I presume at one point it was actually a really good place to go but like any restaurant that lives long enough the quality tanked will the price is went up.
Guessing a named unit that you must interact with is stuck in a particular room. Sorry trying to be very discreet.
Summon up a cat and use meow. Keep moving the cat and meowing until you get to his table, which is next to the flight of stairs. There was a previous tenant there who is gold in color and wore a monocle, who is no longer there. You’ll be able to now interact properly with the quest giver.

I personally am in a phenomenally stable polyamorous relationship. I’ve been married to my wife for 12 years, and she has had the same boyfriend for about half of that time. It’s a really fulfilling arrangement for all of us in various ways. We’re all genuinely happy and satisfied. I’m kind of casually looking for a...
I worked with a married couple many years back. Then they had a kid. So they split their shifts since daycare costs to damn much for 2 Perkins cooks. So they very little of each other. So they went to an open relationship model because “needs”. One of the male managers known for hitting in and fucking all waitresses (because he controlled their schedule…) took the opportunity to start plowing her too. The husband… Thought he had game and thought he could get someone at work. He couldn’t. So that had to be a fun dynamic. The husband and wife’s manager working side by side with both of them and the manager was having a baby with one of his other conquests that also work there. Their marriage quickly fell apart and people’s opinion of her and the manager and the husband took a leap off a cliff. Before all of that they were a very happy couple and great friends to be with. Afterwards they were all insufferable and the child pays for all this.
Knew another couple, married, with for kids. They moved to a open relationship model… Probably for plethora of reasons, Part of me believes that she misses her early twenties party girl that she used to be. Turns out being in mid-30s and having four kids and being married really limits the type of guys that you get. Her former husband moved on with life. And she now has a fifth kid with someone that was a temp boyfriend.
20 years ago I worked as a bill collector. The company I worked for would buy out the accounts that the primary company felt they couldn’t collect on and have basically given up. So we’d buy your debt (at a steep discount) and then try to collect from you.
It disappointed me the number of parents I talked to who not only committed fraud on their own kids but legit did not care, zero remorse. Some of them would even laugh at me and say “well they’re only three so what are you going to do!?”.
I felt so bad for the kids. Those are the kids that are entering college and the workforce right now.
I mean, I’ve been skipping every last one after my Pixel XL bricked itself. Got a Samsung S9+. Waiting for that good Pixel yet. A compelling reason to give up this phone.
It’s the only time I’m not thinking about all the things. Things I failed to accomplish today, what I have to do tomorrow, what I want to do but will probably be to mentally drained to do, the constant stress of work, crippling loneliness. General just so tired.
Once the stuff kicks in, all the noise stops. No longer burdened by it all. It’s the few times I smile and feel somewhat happy. It’s a lot easier to fall asleep.
Sarah Katz, 21, had a heart condition and died hours after she drank Panera’s Charged Lemonade, a large cup of which contains more caffeine than Red Bull and Monster energy drinks combined....
What do you call that thing when you plug it in to the device that’s plugged into the wall and then plugs into the phone what do you call that. And then when that process is done you would say that your phone is fully what…
Also if you don’t know something and you see something new, you do know that you can just ask about it. “This is called charged lemonade what’s in it?”
Drip coffee isn’t kept behind the counter because people can overcaffeinate themselves.
First off tons of places put out drip coffee in crafts. Example Pizza Ranch. Many restaurants will just drop off a craft of coffee at your table if you ask for it.
You can literally fill an entire shopping cart with caffeine at the grocery store.
Because it’s an established thing. That’s your defense. It’s an established thing!
You asked when was the last time you heard of Lemonade with caffeine I gave you an example and you didn’t like it.
I know of caffeinated root beer. Been around for much more than a decade. You going to make a federal case of that too because root beer isn’t any established caffeinated drink.
Also, because so much of your debate is it’s not a thing it’s not established…
Maybe the great is like, DoS2 is like a good store bought cookie. If it’s all you know then you’re good to go. But BG3, is your grandma’s secret double chocolate chip cookie recipe that wins blue ribbon at the State Fair year after year. You just can’t look at those store bought ones the same again. They still good… But…
You nailed it on the head. So few games have characters that really come alive. Through tone and body language. So many games have the NPCs just stand there stiff. When Shadowheart is being a cold snarky b**** in the beginning of the game you can hear it you can see it. And then by the end of the game you can see she is far more warm and inviting again, in tone and body language. Or how Astarion trys to be cool, suave, and aloof. But, drop one building in him and I feel like who he really is comes out in that moment (well very shortly after…)
… Big cap…? What? I was going to guess that it was something spelled wrong or autocorrect got you but there’s literally a baseball cap next to it so it’s intentional.
