pair up system and unlimited leveling made the game a joke.

On "hard" (read: normal) difficulty, you could just make a Robin x Chrom tagteam and literally steamroll the game and leave everyone else out of battle. On the backhalf of the game, you can make a Lucina/Morgan tagteam to bolster up.

WODs are silly; the same workout (and the same weight of resistance or same # of reps) for everyone is bollocks. One should want periodization and progression.

Poor technique is rewarded because it's a social, competitive, timed environment which often leads to injury.

Price tag is hilariously high.

Sure, it's good fitness insomuch that it's cardio and lifting. If you stick well with anything and kept at it, you'll see improvement. This can be done in a standard gym with a basic ass routine of full body lifting 3x a week and cardio on off days.

Recently got a new job that involves me sitting in front of a machine with like 6 minutes of downtime inbetween samples and little else to fill in the gap. Internet is spotty, so a game that's always online would be bad.

I'm happy to drop actual money on the thing, too.

Fave genres are turn based strategy/RPGs and puzzle. Might be down for a visual novel. Prime examples of things already played: FFT: WotL, Hoplite, and Favo. Would do Slay the Spire but played the piss out of it on my PC already.

Thoughts, CEople?

There's a 90% chance you're misreading the situation and he's literally just giving you some pants because he's cleaning clutter in advance of his move.

Just because he's gay doesn't mean he's into you. Odds are he doesn't find you sexually attractive or y'all's relationship paradigm has him not think of you in that way. He's passed once already.

Edit now that I've read the topic: Why the hell are you blocking him now?

well, yeah.

downwind locations are the places no one wants to live, so the housing market is pricier elsewhere and cheaper in that zone. Then you get a demographic of people with minimal generational wealth who can't afford to live elsewhere, and here we are.

How is your view on coming out for your partner?


Depends. I don't want to be a dirty secret. I'd like to go OUT on dates and have shared experiences together. I'd like to bring him over to hang out with my family/friends and all their events. If he's scared to even go into a gay bar for fear of being outed, that's too much for me.

If he's a little averse to PDA, I could roll with that. I personally like hand on the thigh or knees touching while sitting. Or a kiss goodnight. I don't want him looking over his shoulder while we're outside of either of our private homes.

If he's not out to his family? I could respect that, but I'm out with mine and he's invited over for christmas and shit.

It's improv for nerds

Basically. It's collaborative storytelling.

CRON posted...
What are the basic mechanics of playing D&D and what makes it fun?

The fun is generally derived from one of the following aspects:

- tactical, combative gameplay. Think Final Fantasy Tactics or a CRPG like Baldur's Gate. You control a single unit with a personality, stats, HP, and abilities. The Dungeon Master will throw enemy units at you in a given arena. Its turn based combat involving dice and robust battle mechanics.

- noncombat encounters are dealt with roleplaying and skill checks. There's an NPC or environmental hazard or something that presents a difficulty to go through. It's up to you and your party to use the tools you have and your skill proficiencies to solve the riddle, get through with minimal harm, by getting the NPC to think you're a swell, awesome guy, or whatever Creativity is rewarded.

Just listen to a DnD podcast and do a lot of skipping around, listening to 1 or 2 minute segments. It's not for everyone and it's very reliant on a decent DM to narrate and create the world for the adventurers to run amok through.

Sperm has about 1 calorie per mL, which the average volume of a sperm vial that's held in a sperm bank.

With some pretty severe rationing (600 calories a day), a sperm bank would need about 500,000 vials of sperm to sustain these 2.5 humans. That ain't happening.

One of the girls is trans and used to be a dude, or one of them had a used condom in her purse, or was one week pregnant at the onset. And they're trapped in a food bank. Final answer.

Not really. Trophic levels are a bitch. Animal food has to come from somewhere. You can get 10 acres of corn to produce one acre of cow... or you can just eat the corn directly and spare not only the cow but 90% of the cow food.

(Granted, many cows eat grass and humans cannot eat grass, so that's about the only time when it's ideal to eat cow instead of cow food directly)
