TopicIf you dont have kids.... why not?

While I'm not opposed to the thought of raising a child, I've never really felt the inherent desire to do so. On top of that, I think that there are already far too many people in the world to sustain in the long term, and that amount is expected to grow for the rest of this century.

And as mentioned before ITT, it's ok to have children. I believe it's even important that people are made a little more aware of that, especially women, since they are socially pressured to have children much more than men.

There's a pretty interesting Ted talk about it:

No single step will somehow fix all environmental problems.

It's definitely an improvement. I'm glad options like these are on the table, and I hope it pushes other governments to take similar action. Even if the exact same change won't be very likely for some countries, like U.S., that doesn't mean there can't be environmental improvements in other areas.

rogue squadron 1 didn't work too well on PC for me. I made it through 3 missions before giving up

camera didn't follow my ship properly in any view outside of cockpit, and NPC ships were really jittery so it made it hard to aim properly

Yeah, this problem sounds familiar. IIRC on PC I used to solve this by switching the camera to front view first, then rear view (F2, then F1, if memory serves).
The camera should be stable now.

Escape from Fest and Raid on Sullust were always the toughest levels. My Sullust tactic was basically taking out the missile turrets first while continuously flying at full speed with lots of turns, then focus on the shield transmitters (still flying at full speed, due to the constant threat of TIE interceptors at my back.

Fest is my least favourite type of level, sine you have exactly zero spare time to explore the level or take your time to make a few extra kills.
Rogue Squadron 2 was full with levels like that, which is why I didn't like that game at all.

Also, it's extremely unlikely there will be humans as we know them around by the time Milky Way and Andromeda collide, because over a span of that much time, humanity will either:
1. Go extinct
2. Evolve into some other form of life/intelligence that is indistinguishable from humans.

If there's one thing the Brithish fear more than death, it's public loss of face. That's why the Brexit has not been dropped so far, because that would be a public admission that it was a mistake, even though literally everyone except Johnson and Farage knows Brexit is a bad idea.

Go to gym, eat healthy, wear nice clothes

Also play video games, and drink alcohol

Coincidentally my ex-girlfriend broke up with me a little over a month ago after a 4-year relationship. Gym, (mostly) healthy food, nice clothes, video games and alcohol are exactly how I'm coping. Lots of karaoke too (but that's just my personal hobby).

One major complication is that we currentlu still live in the same apartment. We both intent to move out and get a place of our own (since neither of us can afford that place on our own, plus living in that apartment in that neighbourhood comes with various downsides). Unfortunately, finding a new home is tough and expensive right now, so we're stuck together for the time being.

You're gonna need to have an excuse ready as to where you were in case your roommate asks when you next see him. In all likelyhood that excuse is gonna be that you were out, in which case your coat should be wet.

I too am quite experienced at this sort of social avoidance behaviour. Sometimes it kind of feels like a sport where I only persist 'staying in my uncomfortable hiding spot' for the sake of not being a quitter and showing my own Truman Show audience how good I am at this.

It's a shame that "I love you" often has a similar weight to it as a marriage proposal, that if the other one doesn't reciprocate right then and there, it's too awkward and painful to carry on the relationship, even if the other one might be ready to reciprocate later.

I haven't watched it since midway of season 3 when my DVR lost the remaining episodes of the season.

Since then, I've only been actively watching Arrow and Flash. Haven't seen season 3 of Legends or season 2 of Black Lightning. I'm so behind, and I want to be in the know for the Crisis on Infinite Earths. If Supergirl isn't as good as y'all put it, I might just read the summaries.


Black Lightning isn't part of the Arrowverse, so you don't have to watch that just to prep for the CoiE crossover.

Personally I don't watch Supergirl or Flash, because they don't interest me. I think it might have to do with the superpower emphasis of them. I don't even read up on their general summaries. So far I can follow along with crossovers just fine. At worst, sometimes a random character shows up who knows one of the main characters and I think: "Huh, who's that? Oh, I guess they're from Supergirl/Flash."

That's an interesting choice. Although I'm a big fan of the LoK series, I would rate SR2 a 7/10 at best. It's major plusses being the story, the handful of puzzles and the sceneries. Aside from that, combat and other gameplay elements aren't very memorable.

If I'd rate any LoK game a 10/10, it would probably be SR1, maybe BO1 as well.
