I am starting a Beta boot camp. We just hang out, play cards, pool and video games while being nice to each other. Just show up in the bay area and kick in whatever you think is fair.
But don't blame me if shit still gets weird
I don't disagree, but...
Spinal Tap Sequel?!!!

Just getting started in Dragon's Dogma 2 and a Pawn from the rift comments
"My master only hires women, what do you think is up with that"
I know enough about the game to know that was some emergent shit talking about another player.
If you are worried about crowning a GOTY in March, I think gaming might be a secondary priority for you.

Why is it a "Boomer" might be the last rational man in this country.
If I may, there’s something I need to get off my chest.
As democracy remains under siege, it has been frustrating to watch how the press covers politics these days.
I am reminded by lessons that came to me during the Nixon years as a CBS News correspondent, which I’ll add here:
1. Enough with Both-sides-ism
When one side lies intentionally and repeatedly, they are no longer entitled to the benefit of the doubt. They should be held to account, right away. Do not simply repeat the narratives they spew.
2. Prioritize Live Fact-Checking
Rigorous and robust fact-checking is the best defense against misinformation, intentional lies, and deflection.
If Trump says the sky is green, the story isn’t that the sky is now green; the story is that the sky is still blue and Trump got it wrong.
3. Ask Lawmakers Hard Questions
Ask about the fundamental principles of democracy. Push them to go on the record that Biden won the 2020 election.
Ask if they support the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
This writing is not to offer any claim of knowing it all. Your correspondent has made his share of mistakes, but after more than seven decades I believe I have picked up a few useful guideposts.
Good journalism is always worth it. Our democracy depends on it.

I bought a quarter ounce of weed today, I think that is the smallest purchase I have done in 25 years.
I did pick up 1000MG tincture and 7 grams of concentrate(max allowable) but a 1/4 seems like I bought the right to feel like I am almost out of weed(it is really fucking good)
I have enough female friends who dated my male buddies who run their mouths to call bullshit on that

Harryhausen was a god damned genius, and Seven Voyages of Simbad is lost in the zeitgeist far too much of the time
My Great great grandmother, with my grandfather below in rural Lithuania.
I have never seen this picture before today.
It is amazing to think I have a picture of my grandmother with Bill Clinton a lifetime or two removed.
