They’re going to get sued into oblivion, so that’s one alternative path forward.

They could have bought the game out and lumped it into their existing games. Alternate dimension Pokémon anyone?

Last I read this morning it was still a category 4 and never made 5.

Helene was only a category 4 and did this amount of damage. It’s insane.

There are many more we won’t know about until next week. This is a national tragedy.

We don’t grow our crops in a desert. They grow in very specific regions of the world, often in areas that are suitable due to natural formations and easily obtainable water. Most of Canada is forested land that is uninhabited with no infrastructure such as roads, running water, or electricity - not to mention there has never been a large agricultural presence in those areas, so it would have to be started from scratch, if it is possible at all.

When you say we’ll huddle around the proverbial fires, it might be a very small human population. Our civilization (likely including both of us) probably won’t be around at that point.

Plants don’t grow without light. Plants can’t survive extreme heat and drought.

Once it gets too hot or too dry to grow crops, it won’t matter anymore. Call me a doomer, but we aren’t doing enough to stop that future from happening.

9 MEATBALLS?

We only had three

When I was younger I stopped by QFC and got a cup of chicken noodle soup. For whatever reason, I just couldn’t wait to eat it when I got home. I straddled straddled wheel with my elbows while eating it with a spoon while on the highway going 60. I am not sure if I should be alive at this point.

This seems like a Bojack Horseman reference

I had my gallbladder taken out years ago, so my feces is not as solid as most people’s. The TP is to scrape what the bidet doesn’t get, and the towels are only for drying, not for wiping up shit (I don’t want to put shit in my washing machine). I use about 75-80% less toilet paper than I did before and my ass is cleaner.

I had a fixed bidet and it got water all over. I switches to a wand style bidet and it was a fucking game changer. I can focus specifically on where I want and my ass is clean, even after Chipotle lunches.

I ended up getting a bunch of small towels and a bucket. So I rinse, dry my cheeks with a small towel, wipe with two squares of TP, then dry again with the towel and toss it in a bucket for washing with my regular towels.

I said the same thing the other day. They don’t care. They just want results. It could be a ham sandwich that is starting to mold, and if the ham sandwich got the same results, there would be morons out there wearing ham sandwich hats.

This should be a movie

Citation needed. I know you’re trying to be funny, but there’s actually a lot of evidence going back to 2012 that internet pornography addiction is an actual issue for many people.

There are anecdotal reports of antisocial behavior, erectile dysfunction, etc in many small communities. I think yourbrainonporn.com is a good primer and rebootnation is a forum with people trying and failing to stop masterbating even to their own detriment. Make your own decision though.

Back in the day I used to check out civfanatics.com for mods. There were tons for Civ4:BTS that made it so much cooler. After playing that and then playing Civ5, I was incredibly disappointed. Civ6 is better, but not by much. I still go back to Civ4 when I need my “one more turn” fix.

Hawaiian with jalapeño and red pepper flakes

Born in 1984 and I often use the phrase “one leg in the analog, one in the digital”. Mostly because I had to learn the Dewey Decimal system.
