No mods. Full stop. On console I play the game as it comes. I just don’t have the energy for mods.
I try to in PC but it takes me so long to search for and install mods and get different versions to work with each other. It gets to the point where I don’t even play.
So yeah. For me vanilla is out of the box.
At the most it’s making the game pretty and nothing else.
Former President Donald Trump’s supporters say they hold him as a source of true information over their family, friends, and religious leaders, according to a new CBS News/YouGov poll out on Sunday.
If you are in enough mental distress self harm starts looking like a real good idea as an excuse to not go to work. Of course it’s not logical or reasonable. It’s a reaction to stress. It’s an irrational intrusive thought.
If I hadn’t experienced something similar I would feel a little skeptical. :(
Gonna get this ball rolling with low hanging fruit... For me, personally, it's gotta be Hokkaido in the reboot trilogy. My favorite aesthetics, I like how compact the level is and the way the outfits work....
I also like the drug dealer level. For the life of me I can’t remember the name. What I do remember is discovering how fucking deep that level goes down! I was just messing around in the level for no good reason. Just exploring. Then I stumbled upon a garage. And it went underground. And the level just kept going down. And down!
I found so much cocaine. I just threw bricks of cocaine at everyone. So fun 😌
Was reminded how Epstien not killing himself was/is so accepted yet it’s still a conspiracy theory. Is there any similar ones you guys believe to be completely true ?
I agree. I think that he knew that Russia was going to attack Ukraine. (It is weird how trump got involved with Zelensky during that infamous phone call.)
Trump tried to get us (US) out of NATO so bad because then we would be free to use our military power in favor of Russia against Ukraine.
I agree! I keep saying the same thing. I think he was allowed to kill himself. They put him on suicide watch as a suggestion to him. That way their hands are washed of him by his own hand.
What is that? I’m not very tech savvy until I am required to be. I have my good old MacBook Pro 2012 or 13. One of those. I haven’t used it in a while.
I’ve been keeping that sucker going for that long, just swapping out parts. Is there a way I can play around with it?
Apparently child-labor is on the rise. More kids, more money to make in their cheap exploitative labor. 14 states have proposed or enacted laws rolling back child labor age restrictions.
Summary: “Beyoncé is selling “listening only” tickets for her Renaissance tour. The seats are behind the stage, so you can’t see any of the set or dancing, but they only cost $157 compared to the ~$900 fans have been paying for regular US tickets.”...
I see the dislike of Beyoncé is as strong here as on Reddit. 🙄 I went to her concert and had an amazing time. She sounded wonderful and was so sweet even when it was pouring out.
Listening only tickets would have been nice for some. I saw people just vibing and some that people that were so high they just had their eyes closed the whole time lol
Of course you are right. I wanted to go to other shows this year but they were too much. I chose the one I wanted most and went for it.
It’s the tone of comments with regards to Beyoncé specifically that I expected on Reddit and I suppose now here. I don’t get that on other social sites or irl. I find it odd.
You know, in reality, there were plenty of cheap tickets still available facing the stage. Thinking about it now I can’t see a real reason to buy these you talked about…
Don’t worry I understand. I agree. I wanted to see Jill Scott but the tickets were nuts. The first time I saw Beyoncé the prices were not like this. Nowadays it’s too many gatdamn fees! I don’t regret my tickets but I’m also mad that Ticketmaster basically has a stranglehold in ticket sales.
Speaking of indie bands I’m definitely going to start seeing and supporting more of them. Small venues, intimate atmospheres, affordable prices.
I know. It was like almost $300! I was already balling out of control buying Beyonce tickets. I couldn’t go any further even though Jill is my girl 😩
I paid $400 for my lovely parents to see Kem and Ledisi! Ticket prices are just crazy right now.
But truly, I want to see people while I can, while they are here. My mother said her biggest concert regret was not paying to see Prince when she could.
I’m always looking for analogies. Even if they don’t work that well lol. This one reminded me a lot of my first level digital photography class.
Most of us had artistic experience before we even walked in. We were expected to all have a good quality expensive camera from the get go.
And we took really good pictures! With time we got so much better using the same instrument we started with.
I would say that analogy is a way of playing that’s valid. It’s especially good for casual or beginner DND player.
On the other hand, our professor had a camera body that they added components to as needed. It was crazy all the cool things they had at their disposal from different places! So a vet photographer might find it a normal and necessary, perhaps, to customize their tools of the trade.
I consider this like a DND veteran or someone who wants a serious experience.

Every time I learn and encounter more of what’s happening, I feel sicker and angrier. Especially for the women. I just done even know what else to say.
That is spooky. Of course I had to go look it up. Contrary to that first part of the Wikipedia page, this is no longer conspiracy. It’s becoming the reality.
A lot of people probably already know this exists, but for those who don’t, there’s an awesome app that tells you what birds are around from their calls/songs. It’s called “Merlin”. You can also give it photos to ID. I usually leave it running in my pocket or hand while I walk around my local RSPB reserve.
I’m seeing bees, and butterflies coming back, lightning bugs. But not enough. Not nearly. I know it’s only cause my block has native plants on purpose to attract them.
Otherwise I barely see anything else. Except lots of dragonflies and damn mosquitoes.
The Peach State lost more than 90% of this year’s crop after a February heat wave followed by two late-spring cold snaps. The triple-whammy inflated prices of the fruit. It also moved much of the local market — in some cases, quite unwillingly — to California peaches.
I’m supposed to be planting a bunch of perennials right now. They have been sitting in their same containers from the store because I’m too depressed to plant them.
And yet they’re thriving. There’s a lesson there somewhere.
That graph showing a sudden massive uptick all at once across so many instances? Crazy.
From the post, it seemed that the intention was not to inflate the numbers alone, but to have the bots sit around until needed. It makes me mad that someone jumped on that so fast to set up all those sleeper bots.
Mine is Silent Hill 3. Its subject matter revolves around the fears of a teenage girl, like death of a parent, puberty, unwanted pregnancy (with a demon fetus, no less), mirrors (THAT ROOM shivers), and stalkers.

Even though I’ve finished the first three at least once, Fatal Frame games are terrifying. I love them dearly, but I literally can only play any of them for maybe an hour before I have to turn them off.
I don’t know if I would be able to finish one these days. My anxiety is way worse than when I was young.
Edit: To be more specific, the sound design in FF games is too good. The atmospheric sound effects, the background music, the ghosts voices. It’s so creepy. The way the ghosts appear out of nowhere, the subject matter of folkloric rituals.
It’s all just the perfect storm of terror. The anxiety gets to me after a time.

We go to a chain called Cinemark and the tickets are far cheaper than AMC. I think for 6 people on opening night with heated D-Box seats (the kind that move and shake and vibrate) directly in the middle of the theater cost me $100. Plus I have a membership so free tickets and no fees too.
If we went with regular seats we would have gotten them at around $10 per person. Heated recliners all around.
