That was a great show

Say hi to your mother

I liked The Happening.

Whether it was intentional or not, there’s a really interesting metaphor for the 24/7 news cycle, the need to blame something, and the state of the world. There’s so much in there to think about but most of the audience just thought “plants make people kill themselves? That’s too silly”. In my mind it isn’t the plants; no one knows, but the need to get the first headline, or feel in control is so great that people get frantic, panicky, and dangerous.

I think it might be connected to that Spiderbait concert and not wearing earplugs at the time.

I miss GameFAQs text pages. Now it’s YouTube videos stretched out to 10 minutes to explain 30 seconds worth of info.

Got it.

That seems pretty cool.

I’m a little confused. It’s this a self hosted program? Following the link I see a monthly subscription cost.

I suppose it didn’t help that I played Stranger of Paradise first, which has a very fun and varied battle system. If that feeling of battle was in ff16 I think I’d rank it much higher.

What’s the name of that plugin?

I’m playing 16 now.

It’s ok. The battle is a touch better, but honestly if you’re going to do a DMC mimicry do it all the way. I’m pretty disappointed that a game about collecting different eikons has zero elemental stat effects. I’m vaguely enjoying it but so far it’s ranking pretty low on the list of FFs that I’m emotionally attached to.

I was one of the people that wasn’t mystified by HL2. It was cool, but it was just a spectacle of good graphics and the gravity gun.

I felt they really mucked around with the story laid out by the first game, it barely felt related. Like, Independence Day 2 vibes.

Final Fantasy XV

I’m a huge FF fan, but felt there was a dip after the golden era of 7-10. 13 was middling for me, 14 was an MMO which is not my area of interest.

FF15 took a long time to come out. And then we find out that you are manually controlling the main character like a hack’n’slash. It just no longer sparked that joyous wonder.

I waited ages before I got a PS4 and then got the Royal Edition. Slowly as I played it a fell in love with the characters. They are flawed, thrust into a journey they didn’t get to choose, and instead of a toxic male fantasy it was a story about brothers, fathers and sons, about love, loss, and sacrifice.

I bawled my eyes out at the ending. The game definitely suffers from feeling like it’s not quite a finished product, but the characters are the star of the show.

I buy from the store the first time and buy online for subsequent items.

They were in power for 9 continuous years, the whole time blaming Labor for the economy, then next election said you should vote for them because they are good at running the economy. How can you be good at running the economy if in 9 years you can’t make any positive change that you can take responsibility for?

They are suggesting that the husband could have been abusive, and that was the motivation to disappear

I remember seeing a bit of Oprah on TV and they were talking about changing the toilet roll. She was saying how she recently discovered it only takes 30 seconds to change and her advice to viewers was that you could even change it while you were on the toilet. A fully grown woman was telling the world that she just discovered changing the toilet roll. How out of touch can a person be?

Wow. A chase so boring they focused more on the incidental pedestrians around the main characters. Look, a C3PO! Look, an R2D2! Look, bop the nose!

What’s a play station?

The benefit of gold is that it doesn’t corrode

Cheers.

Do you recommend tapo cameras? Are they poe?
