I lived with a deaf man for a few months and one thing I noticed is he would often forget to turn off the water in the kitchen.
He didn’t watch TV at all and was not at all respectful when someone was watching or listening to something. Just constant interruptions.
My first CRPG, and my only RPG had been D&D.
My dad ran a campaign for our family when I was seven or so. Original D&D, not even advanced. It didn’t last terribly long but left a lifelong impression.
I recently inserted Creeping Coins to my Curse of Strahd campaign, as a matter of fact.
It was an unpopular twist, despite the group carrying a fortune in cursed money and having nothing whatsoever to spend it on.
Buncha weirdos.
My buddies and I would play on the Playstation (2?) and I got very very good at ninja roping across the map to drop dynamite on someone’s head and swing back to safety in time.
Nothing more I loved than that maneuver, except maybe getting a concrete donkey.
I loved that so so much. He broke all the rules. He told jokes, read them from a book, paced them terribly, and paused for laughter when there wasn’t any.
“Cloris Leachman is here!” checks the book “Cloris, if people say you’re over the hill, don’t believe them. You’ll never be over the hill. Not in the car you drive.”
I think they mean while walking around, like how you can drink booze.
As another commenter pointed out, I was thinking of the 5200. But yeah, I was also doubtful.
Ah, you’re right! Brain failure. Thank you.
The 7800 had a controller with a keypad used for many games.
Is that gone entirely?
Who am I kidding, I wouldn’t have bought one anyway, but it was my first console.
I really dislike when people share news from local news sites like this because they very, very rarely add the context to know where the fuck it happened.
It’s worse than ragebait. It’s completely useless and adds nothing to a discussion.
The core Avengers:
Captain America: Battlemaster Fighter
Black Widow: Assassin Rogue
Iron Man: Armorer Artificer, as others said
Hulk: Path of the Giant Barbarian
Hawkeye: Arcane Archer Fighter
Thor: Pact of the Blade (Hammer) Warlock
Is that the opposite of “Jesus Take the Wheel?”
You have no idea how happy and relieved I was when I saw the term “brain shocks”.
I wasn’t insane, I wasn’t the only one, and it’s a normal thing.
Now what’s really weird is that I had them at a young age when I don’t think I was on any medication. Certainly in the days before Prozac and the like. And I can’t recall when they stopped.
When I had them (on wellbutrin) they weren’t withdrawal symptoms and could happen at almost any time of day.
It’d present when I’d get up or turn my head. I’d feel/hear a high pitched zing sound and my vision would stutter a little. Very disconcerting, especially when driving, carrying heavy items, or using sharp objects.
Went away when I switched meds.
Just off the top of my head, Echo Knight and Pact of the Blade might be fun together.
Shit I didn’t consider Rosa at all.
Article makes it clear this is not Humble Bundle, which was what I had assumed.
She is a woman of color who was a cop and prosecutor when recent events call those first two qualities into question with the latter two.
But this is a time when Democrats, I believe, will say that this is a strong candidate with knowledge of the legal system in a time when we need to strike down right-wing supported terrorism and put the enemies of our nation away.
Let’s see how she campaigns, not that she can lose my vote.
The phrase is Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line.
But I don’t think it’s really all that accurate. It’s more like Republicans fall in line, Democrats come to terms with.
And we will.
Also, Biden was not bad at the job. Few had the knowledge of the levers of power to keep shit running with Republican/Sinema/Manchin obstruction.
But he is four years older, and I hope moving to a different candidate works out. Democrats should love a chance to vote for a totally new candidate who keeps most of the same mildly progressive agenda.
But I will say if she doesn’t stick with the plan to reform the Supreme Court I will be extremely disappointed.
He was an asshole too. But it is easier to forget running water without the audible cue.
