Divinity: Original Sin 2. I played co-op with my wife. The first time, we got most of the way through act 2 before visiting family over the holidays. More recently (starting a fresh game), we made it much closer to the end, finishing several characters’ personal quest lines, before yet another holiday interrupted our game.
Each time, we just never really felt like picking it back up. Maybe we’ll get back to our “current” game at some point. Otherwise, I suppose I’ll play it solo at some point. Of course, that’s how this run started – she just saw me playing and wanted to play again.
I’m hungry and tired enough that this looks absolutely amazing right now
Oh yeah, I’ve got mud daubers, too. They’re cool; they don’t mess with me, and I don’t mess with them. It’s really just those big, red assholes (and the occasional yellow jacket) that are problematic.
I’m fine with bugs that don’t bother me. Around my house, I’ve got a ton of red paper wasps. They’re assholes. My mere existence makes me a threat worth stinging. Same for the rest of my family. They can go fuck themselves.
You’re absolutely right. I meant it was “acceptable” – I don’t recall hearing people judged for saying it, but that was among an immature, high school crowd. It was definitely considered offensive to use as a label, rather than an insult (which was on the same level as f*g; not acceptable, but commonplace).
Except it’s not so much “shiny” that distracts me, as it is literally anything.
There are things that I’ve intended to do for months. Many times, I’ve been on my way to do it, only to have some little thing distract me, and then completely forget about what I intended to do. Maybe a child asks me a question. Maybe I stop to take a sip of water. Maybe I just start thinking about something else in that 10 second walk. The significance of the distraction does not matter; the task immediately vacates my mind. I often even remember that I was going to do something, but I cannot remember what.
I don’t think I’ve used the word once since high school. Had it been generally unacceptable back then, I wouldn’t have done so. I graduated high school in 2004, and it was at least an acceptable insult back then (though not to call a disabled person), I think. I was a jackass in high school, though, so I could be wrong.
Either way, it offends people now, so we shouldn’t say it. It’s that simple. Deliberately offending people just makes you an asshole.
My wife’s job has all of those amenities, too! Well, it didn’t at first, but she’s been 100% WFH since covid. She’s got an office with a window, cats in the workplace, lunch is brought to her straight from the kitchen, and she can even take breaks to go on walks with her family during the day.
But if they don’t understand what mansplaining is (and are the type to use the word despite not understanding it), any explanation you offer is likely to be considered “mansplaining.”
That was also true in 2020. And in 2016 for Hillary.
I think that’s part of the joke. Texas and birth control bullshit.
Why use brain when can ask?
She was ugly before she became a sorceress, if I remember correctly.
As an adult, I don’t feel that I know enough to make an informed decision. Regardless: blue-tailed skink. There are definitely at least two cooler than it, but there are many of them where I live, and they’re my pals.
A serving is often treated as singular a unit in English. Popcorn, rice, candy, etc. “I ate all of it,” not “I ate all of them.” Only when referring to pieces of popcorn does it become them.
I tucked my daughter into bed FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!
You’ve got to remember, they don’t view the BLM reasons as miscarriages of justice. Because they’re morons.
I can’t be pretty in real life, but I have no such restriction in video games.
Eh, we can leave our cats for a week with plenty of food, etc., and they’re still thrilled when we return.
