80s is my most listened era in general. A lot of people were playing with new sounds in the 80s, which is why I like it.

Lots of "let's just try this out and see if people like it".

Probably They Might Be Giants' first or second album. Or something of Oingo Boingo's.

Then the only thing I can think is your resting calories burned is less than you think.
That could definitely be it. Going to the gym starting this weekend regardless, it's just confusing. I've been consistently and reasonably losing weight for like 3 months, and slowly losing weight over the past 2 years. I actually completely gave up alcohol and fast food recently, so it feels weird to hit this road bump. Eating less than I ever have (not intentionally) because of meds, too.

There's financial incentive for every aspect of life and service under the sun. You don't think euthanasia is a scary door to open in the US? Canada is already letting poor people execute themselves instead of helping them.

I think people should have the right, but I shudder to think of how corporations would try to squeeze money out of it.

How can you truly know how many calories youre burning?
I know how much I'm eating, which is not much due to prescription stimulants making it difficult to eat large amounts of food. Not sure how many calories I'm burning, but my job is fairly active lately. I'm usually moving for about 6 hours a day at work.

Miscalculations and perhaps a bit of water weight or constipation.

Are you factoring in calories from beverage/liquids? Are you getting ebough fiber and water to have proper bowel movements?
I only drink black coffee or water, so that's definitely not it. Maybe it's *too* much fiber?

Still on my human two-handed Templar.

Just finished up the main quests in the Hissing Wastes. God damn that zone is big and empty. Managed to snag all of the mosaic pieces though.

Should I start doing the Oculara and collecting all the shards in the other zones, or move on to doing Emprise du Lion or Emerald Graves?

Or should I do the Descent DLC and unlock even higher tier endgame equipment?

Or do I do the Main Story and unlock the Arbor Wilds?

Descent. Descent is fucking amazing, super cool DLC.

This design looks great but based on the leaked details of the upcoming reboot, the game sounds like it's going to be ass. It's apparently about Lara Croft heading a group of aspiring explorers/raiders and coming to terms with her and her family's past of stealing artifacts and disrupting important locations.

I just want a 10/10 adventure/puzzle/exploration game where Lara is OP as fuck and shoots dinosaurs and shit.
??? Who is asking for a game like that. I won't be surprised if it flops.

I agree, I miss old Tomb Raider. Did enjoy Temple of Osiris, though.

then the person who provided the parties with the guns needs to be in prison. i'm not against gun control, i think straw purchasers and people with guns they don't have a license for should be jailed for at least a mandatory 15 years. because the end result of those situations often end with deaths.

If youre on the younger side you should consider diversifying at least somewhat into a high yield mutual fund with a proven track record. It will be more volatile but youve got time on your side.

that said, nothing wrong with investing in the S&P. Youll get market returns and the only thing you really need to worry about is armageddon.

I mean, it depends...

For most people a good relationship > single > bad relationship

There are unfortunately quite a few who only had the bad. My first marriage was not great and that was all I knew. Being single was better. My current marriage though has brought me a level of contentment I had never known.
All I'm saying is there's no upside to saying that a relationship can't/won't make you happy. Lying about it does nothing for Koga except maybe (MAYBE) act as a temporary salve at best, or discourage them from seeking relationships out in the future at worst.

I'm rooting for Koga, and I think 40 is just way too young to just tap out and give up. Relationships can add a level of fulfillment to your life, and it's an important part of the human experience. He clearly feels anguish about his luck so far, but giving up means it's never going to get better.

Koga, be candid, kind and patient. Make efforts to go out of your comfort zone, pursue your interests with larger groups of people, and don't sweat it too hard. Relationships only develop when you're making connections with people, so getting out and doing things socially is the biggest step you can take. Don't give up, you got this!
