Matt Smith as Price Philip is giving me light on these dark days.

You can save a little before you choose your starter but not at the location. There’s probably ~3 minutes worth of cut scenes to endure between a save point and starter selection.

I really need more info on the Switch before I get excited for this. In a multi-person househould, will we be able to have a single Switch base station and multiple Swtiches? Are you going to be able to use any Switch with any base station? How will sharing a console for local multiplayer like Mario Kart work?

I had every intention of SRing for nature until I started playing and saw that you couldn’t save immediately before choosing like you have always been able to previously.

I’ve actually been here in America for the past couple of years and whist I watched Brexit with anger, I’ve had a deep painful ache in my stomach for days now for the wonderful people of this country. We’re only going to take a hit to our economy and lose friends in Europe. You guys stand to lose hard-won rights.

I’m a Brit in America and I saw immediately that Trump was going to be worse. We have a strong culture of self-deprecation and we’ve trained ourselves from birth to believe that we have it the worst, but we don’t. Please don’t take it personally.

I cut a lot of family out of my life after Brexit. 5 months later I see that my life is better without them and I should have cut them out a long time ago because they’re toxic people. It gets better, I promise.

So for the first few months of XY, before Pokemon Bank came out and opened the floodgates, you could go into a random wifi battle and rest assured that you and your opponent would be on an equal footing. It was glorious. With this we’re being denied even a few weeks of that fun again with a new gen.

Not all PPs/GYNs keep IUDs on hand so you may need to wait for them to order one in. Fingers crossed yours isn’t one of those! Take some ibuprofen before the appointment because those suckers hurt going in, but the comfort of knowing that you have secured your own reproductive rights make it worth the pain.

Take it from a Brit who is seeing Brexit crash and burn the economy (until Tuesday I was glad to be over here in the US away from it, though): they will absolutely not be admitting to having made a mistake. They will double down on their ignorance.

Mine is giving me massive, painful ovarian cysts but I’ve tried literally every other method of BC and they all have drawbacks of a similar magnitude. I’ve begged, weeping for sterilization but have been denied because I’m only 26 and apparently I’ll deffo want those BAYBEEZ I’ve always known I don’t want when I’m…

I’m a Brit so I’ve been through almost exactly all this recently. I cut every person who admitted to voting leave out of my life (this includes several immediate family members) and you know what? Five months on, I don’t regret a fucking thing. Don’t let people tell you not to be angry, or to forgive.

I’m getting Brexit flashbacks.

Finance in the Bay Area checking in. The office’s sole Trumpeteer has taken the day off, thank heavens.

I can’t vote on account of being a “nonimmigrant alien” but I have been pestering everybody at work to go out and do so today. At least 3 people went out at lunch to vote who otherwise would have not bothered!

So I’ve gone ahead and replaced my old microUSB chargers with USB-C ones, but I still have a handful of gadgets which won’t be replaced for years and don’t need charging often enough to warrant a dedicated cable which still need a microUSB (Kindle, headphones etc.). Has anybody found a decent USB-C female to microUSB…

Huh? I’ve been talking to him every day since the initial item-giving and the game still saves every single time. This does not happen with other one-off item-giving NPCs like the dude outside the PokeCenter.

He’s definitely up to something as talking to him is one of the only things which will trigger the demo to save, so it’s clearly keeping track of your interactions with him for some reason or another.

I haven’t retrieved any of the mythic Pokemon and other miscellaneous gifts and events they’ve been distributing on XYORAS since February yet so I’m going to go through that backlog. Sounds simple, but I enjoy being able to keep up competitively so I’ll be soft-resetting for beneficial natures...

If this thing uses a proprietary charging cable like the 3DS I’m going to cry. USB-C is here! Use it, manufacturers!
