Hi, neighbor!

I’m partial to “Awaken, my child, and embrace the glory that is your birthright! Know that I am the Overmind, and that you were created to serve me.”

The “dragon has three heads” thing can be interpreted a lot of ways, and I think the assumption that it means three people riding the dragons is simplistic. The “dragon” in that prophesy is probably just the House Targaerian itself.

I found the treatment for greyscale to be quite believable, given the nature of the condition. It’s not just peeling it off, it involves applying a medicated ointment to the skin that may be able to kill the virus. But it does no good to just smear it on dead tissue that has already turned to scales. Got to get…

Agreed. Why does everyone think that because Qyburn showed one to Circe that one is all they have. The blacksmiths and Archers aren’t laboring day and night to make one ballista, nor is the basement of the Red Keep where they are being made. He just had one brought over for his little demo.

That’s a good scenario — I have a preschool age daughter and I dread what will happen when she figures out that she too can tell Alexa to order things. Right now she only uses it to turn lights on and play the same song over and over.

The illusion is not complete unless it occasionally requires me to confirm my identity by saying my surname, a Greek letter, and a numeral.

Contrary to the “lazy” use for it, this will finally make it feasible for me to play video games while using the treadmill. Holding a single controller centered in front of you just isn’t comfortable when the body is in motion and your arms naturally want to swing with your gait.

This is giving me nostalgia for playing Megaman 3 on the NES, with my sister pressing right on the player 2 controller to turn on the “super jump” where appropriate.

Yup. The biggest problem by far is lack of supply. Short chords are a distant second.

Agreed. I feel no guilt, for example, when I use the enchanting/alchemy mechanics in Skyrim that I like to call “ The Ritual of Ascencian” to create items that confer godlike powers. I mean I don’t rush out and do it first thing on a play through, but I consider “discovering” and exploiting that “arcane knowledge”…

Other things that are free include syphilis, a handful of dog poo, and a swift kick to the genitals.

“but, if there were some sort of economic advantage to being gay, while I don’t see individual people just changing their minds over lunch one day (that’s ludicrous), you would see a long-term trend toward normalization of whatever is most economically advantageous, absent other equivalent pressures to offset it. Over…

I always found the book’s comments on sexuality confusingly contradictory. On one hand, they do put the straight male main character into a future where homosexuality is the norm and where being straight makes him the “old queer.”

Great. Looking forward to walking through a Symmetra Portal right into oncoming traffic.

Not sure which console you are on, but on Xbox her glide is already bound to the left trigger by default, in addition to being bound to the normal jump button.

I’m pretty okay with the benign jankiness, wouldn’t be Skyrim without it. I am disappointed however in not being able to transfer my saves from 360 to Xbox One, and in the lack of Kinect support.

All I’ve seen so far is a guard holding one arm as though he had a torch in it, when no torch was visible, and a time when I reloaded my last autosave because a mission critical NPC had just died, and she spawned as a prone corpse but still spoke and slid along the ground on her scripted path. That went away after…

I’m with you. When I find myself imprisoned because of mistaken association, I’m naturally inclined to be pretty pissed off at both my captors and the actual criminals I’ve been thrown in with.

I would like to see just two tweaks:
