And morons who think voting for a third party presidential candidate means anything instead of working to elect down ballot candidates who actually could affect meaningful change.

Someone dressed like that would never go outside

not sure if that first question was genuine or if you are an american eligible to vote, but yes, every single member of the united states House of Representatives has to be re-elected every two years and very few people seem to realize that. meanwhile Jill Stein is running for president becuase she’s a complete asshole and russian operative.

Usually made for dinner these days but a breakfast burrito comprised of either scrambled or fried eggs, cheese, diced potatoes, with bacon or chorizo, smothered in cheese and a NM green chile sauce.

Strider at the Prancing Pony. Bilbo, his guests unexpected. Bilbo, when the thrush knocks! His arm’s raised! Legolas and Gimli; the caves glittering.

Unless they changed it in an update, the fighting mechanics are also a major hindrance. Last time I played you can’t hit stuff that isn’t on the same plane as you with any sort of accuracy. Love the game and have dropped hundreds of hours into it but every time my friends and I went in we got burnt out by the time we reached the plains.

Was trying to think of one recently and this is the one, although I have it on mobile as a train-ride pastime. Still stuck on the puzzle I’m on.

Autopilot will sometimes zoop you into the sun. You have to kinda get into the headspace of orbital mechanics to make it work right. That game is wondrous.

Did they change it from how it used to be where it was either brutally hard or you are immortal? I “played” through it on immortal mode because it is incredibly difficult and frustrating but I would’ve liked mode of “at least a bit of challenge.”

After one piece of the Netflix one piece adaptation I finally hunkered down and watched the anime from start to (the current available dub c. Jan. 2024) which was about middle of the Wano arc. That show obviously was and is janky as fuck but there are some sequences in the Wano arc where I literally was like “that was some awesome and amazing fucking work” Especially when the former retainers did their initial invasion of Kaidou’s castle. (Been a while but that sequence of the three or four samurai’s initial invasion is honestly some of the coolest art I’ve seen in any anime, up there with randomly finding adult swim and watching the Cowboy Bebop opening back when I was 12)

If you meant edgerunners you’re right. If you meant 2077, you are also right. 2077 has some of the most beautifully crafted first person npc interactions of any modern video game. Phantom liberty made it even more incredible. Edgerunners got me back into anime after a good 15 year hiatus and now I have been thoroughly brainrotted. (Everyone needs to watch Kill La Kill and turn off your take-this-serious filter then ride the wave)

The attention to detail they took for such meaningless shots was wonderful. There’s a shot of Frieren crossing a stream then turning around to help Fern up the small ledge in an early episode that was so exquisite and unecessary but also completely necessary for the character development—just not stuff you expect in an anime series. If they had less of a budget that scene would be Frieren and Fern bobbing up and down without any additional movement.

Also the first dragon fight featuring Stark is so beautifully animated. I don’t think many people register how gorgeous that show is.

There would be a rather catastrophic malfunction of a certain golden escalator in 2015.

I heard a tale that that woman was not an actor but in fact some local resident who was waylaid by the filming of that scene so she was compensated by getting to deliver that line. No idea of the validity but an interesting tidbit if true.

You’re gonna shit yourself when you realize an airport is a port for air-vessels in the same way that a seaport is a port for sea- vessels.

She could run for a state house position, for congress, for governor. She is instead making a small amount of noise for a small amount of stupid people who think her candidacy means anything other than bleeding a small amount of votes from the candidate that actually has a chance to win in a race that is between the continuation of American democracy or its cessation.

Yes the two party system is a problem, but the presidential race is not where that problem is solved, local elections are; but there’s no way to grift people at a national level in small elections.

Stein is not ever going to win the presidency and her running is an active campaign for Trump, full stop. If the Green Party was a serious political entity they would be running down ballot candidates before just running one charlatan for president.

That being said; this is a Newsweek article so I question any validity to it. I have been asked to respond to a poll if I would be voting for Harris and I actively chose not to because I didn’t like the sassy bullshit language used in the text. Polls are useless bullshit.

The “I hate the sound of my voice” refrain is the most annoying shit I hear and honestly think most people who vocalize that thought are just acting out their own internalized script of how to not appear self-centered (while actually being incredibly self-centered). Your voice sounds the exact same to everyone else coming out of your fish-hole as it does coming out a speaker.

Edit: I’m not saying that your perceived own voice doesn’t sound different to you when speaking versus when played back initially but after years of doing recorded voice work I can say—you get used to it pretty quickly and the differences kinda blend away into a wash of “that is how I sound.” That is why I find that common refrain to be annoying.

Anyway, no one listening to a recording of you thinks “oh they sound weird.”
