Also on the topic of fitness, what do people think of the peloton bike? Ive been wanting one but my husband keeps arguing with me that its useless and I need to lift weights and a peloton is pointless. I dont think so and Ive heard great things about it. He gets mad whenever I try suggesting getting it.

I think exercise bikes in general can be a good at home workout. I don't think Pelaton does enough to warrant the huge price tag though.

Upon doing a Google search, it took me a second but I actually recognize this show. My roommate is a weeb, and one of his many attempts to convert me into liking anime involved watching this. This shit was so garbage, I didn't care to see anything else after episode 1.

Oh Kitt, you're such a kidder. Let's all laugh with Gojo

Jeez. No, most gyms aren't that pushy. Maybe they're trying to beef up their numbers now that things are opening back up? Either way, I'm sorry you had to experience that. Might want to look into a different gym that isn't so pushy. They shouldn't be pressuring you into anything.

Nothing wrong with not knowing how to work the machines though. Everyone has been at that point before, so I don't think anyone will judge you for it. If the illustrations/instructions on the machine don't make sense to you, try looking up the name of the machine on YouTube. There will usually be videos showing how to do the workout. That way, you can at least feel confident that you're doing things correctly.

Eh, I don't really see them as necessary. They're mainly used to let paramedics know that there's a baby in the back, in instances where you may be unable to communicate. But in most cases, they're going to notice the car seat in the back anyway.

If you really want one, maybe get the ones that suction cup into the inside of the window, so you can remove it as needed.

The epicenter was right on the California/Nevada border, so it was felt in a number of cities in both states.

I dont agree. Sometimes people forget to close their door. Maybe he had just left the door a few minutes ago. When I come back from the grocery store I often leave groceries in the hall and take stuff in gradually and I don't close the door all the way

A slightly ajar door at 9 30 in the morning is not valid reason to invade an apartment

TC was sleep until they got to his bedroom door though. They very likely called out to him multiple times before entering the house.

That said, I can understand being bothered by someone suddenly being in your house while you're asleep. I just don't think it's something that a case can be made for.

I don't have an obsession with her either, but I'd do it because that's a shit ton of money to make in 1 year. Especially since it's after tax.

Well, working for her for a year would mean I'd have to quit my job. And while $750,000 is a lot of money, it's not enough that I could just never work again afterwards. So, yeah that's not worth it for me, long term lol.

That's might point...My yard is overgrown. But it is not illegal to sleep with a door open.
The whole situation seems completely heavy-handed.

Heavy handed in what way? They didn't arrest you, they just made sure you were okay.

Maybe it's normal where you are, but in my city, we lock our front/back doors . So if the front door is just open and no one is responding, that's cause for concern.

I don't see a point in trying to cash it. Even if it works, the odds are very low that they don't make you repay it. Insurance companies make a lot of money, but they're also very stingy with their money.

Unless you live in a city with very efficient public transportation, getting from point a to point b is going to take longer. But beyond that, there's nothing inherently wrong with not wanting to drive. So you do you man.

For me, I live in Los Angeles, so I have to drive to get anywhere within a reasonable timeframe. For example, from work to home, it's about 15 miles. By bus, that's an estimated time of 1 hour, 40 minutes of I were to go home right now. Whereas driving home right now, would take 25-40 minutes.

And if you want to keep the feels coming, I also highly recommend Tokyo Revengers (currently ongoing) and The Promised Neverland (I promise it's not as cutesy as it looks, finish 1 episode and see)

Started playing Ys 8 a few weeks ago. Do all the games feature adol and Dogi?

The Ys games are basically about Adol's different adventures. The only game that doesn't star Adol is Ys Origin.

Ys8 is a great game to jump into (tons of fun). Just know that 2 games actually take place in between Ys 8 and Ys 9, so the time will jump forward a bit, if you play Ys 9 right after.

when is nihon falcom gonna move on from making games that look like they're ps2 exclusive

Hopefully soon. I believe they still used the engine they used for the Vita for this. Ys 8 was a Vita game after all. But Nihon Falcom is using a new engine as of 2020. So we'll have to see how well that goes.

I try to get around 50-60 ounces during the work day, but I don't always reach that. Though I'll bump it up a bit on days I have a lot of sodium.

And I really hope the 3 people that are drinking 5+ litres a day are doing heavy workout routines. Otherwise that's way too much water.

well considering they specifically went after content that they suspected involved human trafficking

Nah, they cast a pretty large net with that purge. Pretty much all videos by unverified accounts, unknown accounts (when the original account got deleted, but the video stayed) and verified accounts that hadn't been active in a while got the axe. Way more than the sketchy videos got hit.
