… do I sound like that? I always thought my voice had more of a ‘Clark Gable’ quality…

A treehouse in space is all my inner child has ever wanted.

That’s okay. In a year or two they’ll call it a “cult classic” and make another anyway.

Ideal: “Oh wow! I could hang out with friends in my dreams! Conversations on the moon!!”

Reality: “You’re late”

Bonus: “We don’t have to pay them anything because they’re not physically at work!”

Thanks for saying something because I read it as “Farts Peed” and was concerned.

It’s only been “irrelevant” because of the poor reception to Sims 4. The Sims was the first great “life sim” game, and the 3rd installment added a crazy amount of content. That’s all we wanted. More stuff to decorate with and places for our Sims to explore. Nah, Sims 4 took away the variety and added paywalls and multiplayer and was just generally a poor experience.

For anyone holding out hope for #5, this is on par with Blizzard announcing their smartphone diablo game. EA killed this franchise, and yeah I’m a little sad about it.

The classic Stop’n’Drop! Later than prophesied, but what a time to be alive.

Another vote for the ErgoDox EZ. It’s pricey but very much worth the investment. Makes me hate every other keyboard I use lol

The thing is - there is no evidence of sexual misconduct. He’s been investigated by just about everyone from local cops to the FBI since the early 90s, and despite the outcry there’s never been evidence. Considering how our justice system dealt with another high-profile figure’s history of sexual abuse, I have to believe something concrete would’ve turned up by now.

Inappropriate? Absolutely. Illegal? Pedophilia? Doubtful. I mean, provided we genuinely believe in “Innocent until proven guilty” ideal…

She sells 'em

“Covenant” and “Prometheus” would’ve been killer movies to kick off a new IP.

I might be the old man shouting at clouds, but I’ve been turned off to all franchise “reboots”. Just sick of rehashes and revisits and the cute little “winks” these movies do to the previous installments. Have an original thought, damn.

Well this is neat - I think I found the “zoomed out” cutaway while I was looking:

Is there a key for the labels? I’m curious what all the parts are called.

Gotta brush up on the ol’ powershell

One day I hope to write a “go fuck yourself” email of this caliber.

I wouldn’t doubt if he got a few of them pregnant

Nearly breaking her back to bend the truth. That’s just “rape” with extra words. Her great-grandfather raped his slaves, and instead of just saying “that’s bad” she defends sexual assault. It’s hard to wrap my brain around.

I hear you, but consider it goes well beyond the sticky plant - simply possessing marijuana in many areas of the US can still get you thrown in jail. With many of those same states enforcing “mandatory terms” for drug crimes, we have thousands of people jailed for years for non-violent offenses. We have a lot of huge issues to deal with, but the “War on Drugs” from the start was a thin veil for persecuting minorities, and it’s still going.

I’m hoping for the rest of your list of requests, too, but personally I think federal weed legalization would have a wider-reaching, far more profound impact on our population than forgiving student loans.

is now suspended with pay — her salary is $232,600 a year

For her outburst she’s been rewarded with not having to work & she’s still getting a six-figure paycheck. Must be nice.

Is this some European thing I’m too American to understand?
