Oh 100% I have long maintained, "Screw what other people think, live as what makes you happy" as my way of life- I stand by that If your job does well enough by you and you're fine with it- good for you

Wooow Ohio's about to get brutal for trying to get a driver's license under 21 24 hours of instruction 50 hours supervised driving - at least 10 at night 8 hours of training with licensed instructor Granted, people in Ohio can't drive for shit so perhaps this is a necessary brutality

Jobs are good- no argument there. I just wouldn't brag about $20. Or at least I sure don't do it as I assumed it wasn't worth bragging about. I don't feel particularly special or that the work I do (factory) is unusual or hard. Perhaps I'm wrong. Always room to learn I suppose.

I mean- I assumed it was trying to make HP money when Fantastic Beasts was cutting its return in half with each sequel. FB clearly was failing and it's still one of the biggest brands out there. So the choice was either do something new (points at FB failing) or something old... reboot.

Yo, bookish peeps, may I recommend this fun read, which someone sent to me and is everything a mashup should be. I disliked Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, primarily because SG-S can't ape Austen's writing for crap. But Erwin seamlessly slips her vampire slayage into Brontë's novel. So good.

It's also wasteful. If you spend 10 minutes a day bitching about other people or the games they play- that's an hour a week spent on nothing. 56 hours (or more than two days) over the course of a year. AKA 7 full work days, except you're not even getting paid to not have fun

Huh. Haven't seen the mother feral cat around- but the two kittens (now IIRC 4 or 5 months old) still show up for food. Perhaps in the colder nights- she's gone to another house? That'd be relatively ideal for us because she was no closer to being friendly enough to pick up and get fixed.

While I don't say that about fascism (wtf?)- I do agree that "mere" fascism doesn't account for RFK. Trump bragged about his vaccines and told his supporters they should get them. He likes medicine. RFK's his own brand of bullshit separate from Trump. That doesn't make it any better or worse.

The 1st person part is basically a horror game. Zone Magic's protagonist is a kid (12) that has adults attacking him. No magic for the MC means, at best, it's a pre-teen trying to throw down with full-grown men. The pre-teen doesn't win that. m.youtube.com/watch?v=7t8x...

Zone Magic was originally intended to be a video game. The idea was the more magic you used- the closer the 3rd person camera would get to you (as your Zone shrank with each spell cast) until you were "out" and had to rely on 1st person until you could restore it. I maintain the idea had merit.

Hard to say- though Azure Dreams holds a relatively unique niche I've not seen matched. It's a monster tamer game for the PSX. You have a random generated dungeon tower you keep going in to find treasure and monsters to raise. You use the money gained to build onto the town you live in. 1/
