I want a Fun game. Art (graphics) can help and be supplementary towards making a game fun, but it is not the end all be all. Some fun games I’ve played use intentionally shitty graphics to add to it, other games are so unfun because all they do is try to wow you with the images.

I’ve found lately the indie Dev sphere has been more focused on fun games and AAA studios have more focused on graphics alone. I think this mostly happened because early on when (video) games where becoming popularized hardware was increasing at such a rapid pace and graphics genuinely could be made better, not necessarily as just a stylistic choice. You could show off the new hardware capabilities with good story for more appeal. This also made them lazier over the years as those big hardware and software leap allowed them to focus on the consumer draw utilizing showcase imagry over story. As hardware advances slowed and graphic leaps became smaller the gains just aren’t there. And you’ve left many consumers with nostalgia over the fight for when graphic improvements meant something, in a time when good story/gameplay was also pretty necessary.

CNC machining. It’s manufacturing; I work with titanium, inconel, and on occasion steel.

I don’t clean shave but I do shave a fair amount away. Usually every couple days. I use a DE razor, it’s cheap and incredibly effective. It also produced the least irritation for me.

I usually shave most of it blind in the shower, then the shape/touch-up in the mirror after. Total, maybe 15 minutes. It goes pretty fast once you know what you’re doing.

Some family members actually! Though they’ve passed away as of now

I’d donate a lot of bodies to science

No further comments.

Cream of wheat made with whole milk and a dab of salted butter.

Not very sweet but very rich, warm, and filling

When I’m in a relationship, usually I can figure out if they would, would consider, or would be against stuff that I may like/want and that determines whether or not I bring it up.

If it’s not a critical desire than I don’t mind just going without. There’s nothing I would really consider “out there” that I find a critical need for with that stuff anyway. It’s usually just a bonus if they also enjoy the same things I do.

That’s where I recognize it from!

There was also Zheng Yi Sao, a chinese woman who became a pirate who was so unstoppable that she even managed to negotiate her retirement with the Chinese government.

I dream often, usually I am able to remember them if I want to but never really bother unless it sticks out as a great story. It tends to happen when I’m about to wake up and while I’m in that mid sleep twilight zone. (Think of trying to back to sleep after an alarm, that kinda sleep)

I would also like to mention that my sleep in incredibly messed up. I have a sleep condition that causes me to wake multiple times an hour so my rest is awful and I’m eternally exhausted.

Are you telling me the Gatorade commercials LIED to me!?!?

I live in a pretty HCOL area and buy food pretty conservatively. I can look into the BOGO tubs of it though! Mostly I feel its a snack type food and that’s where I pinch on foods. The snack, desserts etc.

If I could find it cheap I could probably look into what meals I could have with hummus

You know, I never actually considered making it myself, I figured I’d need some device or masher etc. To make it, but I’ll look into it!

I’d probably buy hummus, buy a bunch of new stuff I’ve never tried, maybe buy some red meat a bit more often than once a month or so.

I also usually don’t buy orange juice for cost reasons so probably that too.

Nature is way way more vicious than most people think or believe. Rape, infanticide, necrophilia, cannibalism, etc. Are not entirely uncommon out in nature. It’s a vicious race for survival and procreation and anything goes. Raccoons are the same.

Dark mint chocolate, Also black licorice. So so good.

First language was Spanish, English is my daily language, self taught enough French to get by on a trip about a decade ago.

In all reality I could probably only sus out enough in Spanish or French to barely get by if really had to. I do still have all my training material and would like to continue learning. But low on my priority list

Outside of my prepubescent years, I spent roughly 4.5 years being “Single”. I did have some partners here and there but never rose to a full relationship. I was simply a bit of a wreck after a bad relationship ended and destroyed my trust.

Ultimately, I’m a companion orientated person and a bit of a romantic. Being single isn’t the end of the world for me but I miss casual touch and someone to do things with. I make due and am generally happy and haven’t really been in the market searching for about 1.5 years now.

The pros of being single: free time, make plans with whomever, low drama, quiet life.

Cons: free time, lack of general intimacy, lack of hobby sharing, and doing things as I am companion oriented

My partnership goal would be to find someone who has some hobby interests that align with mine and likes the quiet life. At this point I won’t be having kids and marriage doesn’t feel all that important. I don’t need a document to agree to be with someone. I’d just want a place out in a rural area where we can enjoy quiet living, gardening, tinkering, and evenings with fires, jokes and the occasional hosting of people to hang out.

“Next weekend” “Next Friday” etc. Wherein they use “Next” to mean “the one after” rather than “the soonest interval in which it will reoccur”

If it is Wednesday and you say “Next Friday” I will immediately think of two days from now, not 9 days. I also especially dislike it because if feels like on a whim that it’ll change. for some “next weekend” will be in 5 days if it’s Monday, or 10 days if it’s Wednesday! What the heck people??

I agree. My mental health takes huge nose dives when I use dating apps. I’ve had great experience IRL and even use friends and their partners sometimes to curate messages so that I know I’m not fucking up. My longest streak was 16 dates consecutively of being stood up. Each was a different woman, no repeat dates or responses after being stood up. Man does it blow. The rejection just happens so frequently and in rapid succession that I can’t stand it.

I also tick a lot of boxes that people present on those apps but for whatever reason my luck is pretty piss. Usually if I actually manage a date we end up at least seeing each other for some time but getting to that point seems nigh impossible through the apps
