I never played Awakening either. I was really invested in my party and companions, and starting over did not feel good!
Mannheim Steamroller.
My wife, a major Anglophile, was like "Ooh, the blitz! Oh wait nevermind..."
It was a nice moment.
and why I like oyakodon so much...
Yes, it's a ... fine dish.
I approve of this change. "Type B" is insulting as fuck--serves them right.
I’ve made pasta a handful of times. It’s kind of neat, and it does taste good, but I don’t think it’s worth the time for me.
Oyster dressing is in the oven. Some weird 20th century American dishes. It’s basically layers of saltines, butter, oysters, cream, sauteed onions, baked in a casserole. I usually add some parm on top.
I also add a dash of fish sauce or soy sauce to most anything that is savory (gravy, soups, meat, etc)
Yes, I mentioned this in a different post. Chris did everything correctly in fighting back against his false accusers. He had the receipts, he didn't go start blabbing his mouth in public, and he won.
I always had the feeling he was a typical game industry leftist, but being falsely accused like that can be a real wake up call.
PLUS... Avellone got metooed in 2020. He always denied it, fought back hard, sued for libel, and forced a seven figure settlement out of two women AND they had to issue public statements clearing his name.
Since then, he's been a lot less filtered.
WHO WILL CUT MY GRASS??
WHO WILL CLEAN DISHES AT MY FAVORITE RESTAURANTS??
Leave my underclass of slave labor alone, you fascist chuds!!

I don't know anything about Aspyr and Civ6 specifically, but Aspyr has been around since the 90s and they got their start in porting games to the mac. That's their whole reason for being, until recently.
My kids LOVED the Tintin comics. I would highly recommend them. The cartoon is good too. The 3D movie is pretty ok as well.
p.s. I think someone on here actually mentioned it recently, but you may struggle a a bit to find "Tintin in the Congo"
80s/90s kid. I 'member when Bart saying "sucks" was shocking.
My best friend had to play D&D in secret because his mother and grandmother thought it was Satanic.
My sister's Christian school banned Harry Potter for witchcraft.
Before 2019-20, I had never seen pronouns listed in email signature lines. Before 2015 gay marriage was only allowed in certain places, and only for a few years. Until 2011, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" was official policy in the military. In both my southern and midwestern families' hometowns, most stores and restaurants were closed on Sundays and all had reduced hours.
This has to be amongst the fastest societal change in history.
Haha.. a little too close!
Yes, Polynesians widely and commonly practiced cannibalism in all of their territories. It was one of the things that most appalled the Europeans and let to such a missionary influx into the area.
Maori were good foes. They came up with forts and methods of fighting the British that were hard for the Brits to adapt to. The Polynesians in general were great navigators and explorers.The Brits won because of superior technology and supply lines that stretched across the world.
Today the New Zealanders are cucking themselves silly over cultural guilt because bad things happened in the past.
I mostly find it ironic that New Zealand is, and will forever be MAORI land, as the indigenous people who are the rightful stewards of the islands....who got there LITERALLY 300 years before Europeans.
That 300 years mean the Maori have eternal rights.
My god, I love this so much.
"God I need this one--she fucks her uncle AND both of his kids." ... "Didn't you read that already one Kindle Unlimited?" ... "Yeah, but I need the hardcopy."
Look it up on Amazon. "Credence."

The first review:
Ignore the negative reviews. The love story is unbelievably good. The spice is SPICY. It takes a while to finally get to the spice, but once it starts, it’s unstoppably hot. The taboo component is not for everyone so read the trigger warning beforehand. If you’re open minded, you’ll love it. I love this book. I cried when it was over. The epilogue healed my heart. It is sexy, suspenseful, unique, and captivating. This story stayed with me for weeks. I still have not recovered. I doubt I will ever find a book like this one. It is that good. Stop what you are doing and buy it.
My favorite part of the tiktok.
"In this one, he's giving her back shots, while drowning her in shark infested waters!" ... "Why do you look so excited?" .... "I'm not.." furtively grasps at book while walking away
Ok, first I had to look up "back shots". Ok, got it.
Next, look up the book on Amazon. "Does it Hurt"

I liked the girls' tiktok and it was tongue in cheek with more than a little actual enjoyment.
The rest--the twitter shitstorm--is just bitches being bitches to other women and white knights simping.
I'm a member of the third group, but I wouldn't call myself "former" leftists. I'm still a left-of-center libertarian.
I used to be a pretty hardcore libertarian. It was pretty easy in the 90s and early 2000s. Most of us were anti-war, pro-economic freedom, and "live and let live" socially. To this day, I think the Dobbs abortion decision is perfect. Remove it from the feds, and let the people at the state level have a choice.
I've been completely radicalized by leftists who hate me. They hate any devolution of authority from the central government to the people. They hate any kind of "live and let live" philosophy that isn't screaming praise for every perversion and degeneracy out there. They hate any economic freedom as anti-progressive, dogwhistles for fascism, and killing the planet. Leftists hate free speech and view proponents of free speech as nazis. Ironic. And, shockingly, leftists have somehow become the more bloodthirsty and interventionist party.
So, no. I am not a libertarian any more. I am, more than anything else, an anti-leftist.
Correct response to this level of insanity is always “k”
It is too bad, and some strange vote splitting, but strange things do happen sometimes.
When I went to sleep on election night, somewhere around 3:30am EST (Asmongold still have like 180k viewer on twitch), Republicans were leading:
PA MI WI NV
That would have been a massive swing of +7! MI, WI, NV will all go blue now. PA I think still has a chance for a R win.
There's no chance the senate stays blue. Republicans picked up OH, WV, and MT for sure.
Haven’t played since my original playthrough. I would love some mod recommendations.
