I was hoping someone would mention the disc launcher!

We used to play the shareware version on the school computers whenever we had free time. Shazbot!

Undeniable classic. Not much more satisfying than hucking a file cabinet at a group of people who don’t see you yet.

Also, the trip mines were fun to use in smaller games (just like the Duke3d ones).

Mercutio from Romeo & Juliet is an all-timer. Just a clown who nobody takes seriously, but is liked by everyone. Then while he’s being stupid playing with swords (but trying to patch up a blood feud at the same time) he gets killed, triggering a revenge murder that spirals into the deaths of the teens. Sorry for spoilers.

There has been a concerted push by reactionary media to demonize it.

The same thing happened with issues like the estate tax, lawsuits against corporations, police reform, etc.

Something I hadn’t know about her:

For her guidance of the raid at Combahee Ferry, which liberated more than 700 enslaved people, she is widely credited as the first woman to lead an armed military operation in the United States.

Reactionary ideology is all about protecting privilege by demonizing marginalized people. They believe in zero-sum rights and privileges: in their view, expansion of rights for another group inherently means a loss of rights for them.

What kind of music are you into and what do you play?

IMSLP has a ton of stuff.

Ich hasse es, dass dies anscheinend die weltweite Wahl ist: moderat konservativ oder extrem.

I don’t think I’ve gotten to that one yet.

My kid and I are really into Bushido Ball, which is such a cool game.

UFO50 is probably my favorite release of last year.

Should have called it the Nintendo Top.

Same, honestly. I’d kill for a remaster or a proper sequel.

Loved Freelancer! Did you try the Everspace games? They’re the closest to a spiritual successor that I’ve played.

Call your pharmacist. They’re an expert in the field, and it is their job to give you advice on your medications. You’ve already paid for this service, even as an American.

What is your budget?

On The Art of Dice by the Roman emperor Claudius would be both trivial and fascinating, I’m sure.

Nice! I’m playing mostly enhanced vanilla, I’ll dig into OpenMW at some point though. I had no idea there was a decent multiplayer mod!

Still going on UFO50. There’s still a couple games I haven’t even tried yet.

Also, doing a modded playthrough of Morrowind, which is a TES game that I missed when it came out due to having an underspec PC. Its magic creation system is ridiculous and a lot of fun to play with. I wish they’d put something like that in TES6, but I’m not gonna hold my breath (without making a spell for it, anyway).

I am due to increase to 60mg from next Wednesday and it is making me nervous. Will the impact of the medication reduce a bit over the next few days or is this what it will be like?

Please talk to your doctor or pharmacist for medical information. It’s potentially dangerous to trust random people on the Internet with your health.

The Steam controller is amazing for Elden Ring and similar games. It makes the camera so much easier to deal with.

Didn’t catch any grenades, but I imagine so?
