Does the notion that it’s not offend you?

Well, she is definitely proof-positive that to be a successful politician, you don’t have FIRST to be a geriatric millionaire or a well-connected wealthy scion of already existing political dynasties.

AOC is a goddamned national treasure. Unabashedly progressive, kicked moderate ass in her elections, calls Republicans on their bullshit, skillfully claps back when they try to attack her, and she somehow successfully managed to merge political awareness with Twitch in a way that didn’t feel forced or scripted? In my… Read more

Why are you surprised? Isn’t finding bugs exactly what betta testing is for?

LMAO bruh proof you didn’t read that article. My character was not the thumbnail. It’s a tiefling.

Lamenting? I said the CC was pretty good baring some weird specific choices. Beyond that, this article is saying “Wow since everyone’s making characters that look like themselves, maybe we should ensure that everyone has that ability.” Larian’s doing the bashing, not me.

It still needs to be driven home though. This is an experience that, unlike a Dead Cells or Hades, can be messed up by some bad bugs. We’ve been treated to some very smooth Early Access periods lately, but it’s important to remind people that not all games turn out this way.

it certainly does, and my guess is that Wanda throws a bubble up around an actual town that she more or less takes over, pulling everyone who lives there normally into her delusions.

volunteering with the Honor Society even though my grades weren’t good enough to be a member

My graduating class had an awards night. My friends made me go (they embarrassed me for volunteering with the Honor Society even though my grades weren’t good enough to be a member.) Also I got a small book award. When they announced it, they talk about where you are going to college and everything and the jock in the… Read more

One thing that kills me is places that allow one of a particular item per order, but don’t limit the number of orders you can place.

The only real way to prevent this from continuing to happen is to have laws put in place to make this practice illegal. Because it is illegal for ticket sales but not for merchandise. 

Exactly this. Don’t get on your hypocritical high horse and preach about FOMO. That’s the not the problem. The problem is the damn bots. Customers just wanting to buy a new product shouldn’t have to be competing with bots.  

To stop bots and scalpers on the NVIDIA store, we’re doing everything humanly possible, including manually reviewing orders, to get these cards in the hands of legitimate customers.

Gotta be honest, getting real sick and tired of bots and scalpers ruining any kind of product launch. I feel like we should have come up with a way to stop these ass holes by now. I know FOMO is a big factor and we should all be patient but still, this is bullshit. I’m not even in the market for a 3080 but I was… Read more

I’m not usually cool enough to say that I was a fan of someone before they made it big but I can say that about this guy. Super talented and has quite the range of voices.

I think that interviewer got... the point!

How timely! I’ve followed Yoga with Adriene for years and a week since committing to a daily “class” with her (and Benji!) each morning. She’s pulling me out of quarantine-rock bottom and really is your soothing wellness friend :) Read more

Honestly I think most virtual yoga instruction is like this. I’ve taken a few online classes (including paid yoga classes from a local studio) and it’s hard to follow at times either because of bad video/angles or explanation. I gave up trying to do vinyasa because I feel like I’m going to injure myself.  I’ve enjoyed… Read more

Just re: instructions, personally I find there are some phrases that don’t make sense until I hear them a number of times, or I move differently one day and feel it, or I hear a few different instructors explain something slightly differently and one day it clicks. (For context I’ve been practicing yoga I’d say very… Read more
