Is that this week or the nightmare chelation therapy and exploding death chambers to cure 'heavy metal toxicity' from last week?

The child murder episodes are rather hard to handle.

He fit so much disgust and defeat into the delivery of that line. Absolute perfection.

You too :)

I foolishly had dental work done in 2023. LONG overdue.

The tech doing my x-rays had an n95, full face shield and gloves. The idiot dentist starts poking in my mouth with NO gloves and is completely unmasked.

The 3 years of being hyper cautious, getting every damned booster and treating every stranger as a plague vector down the drain. Thankfully only a week of what felt like one of the worst bouts of influenza I've had.

Still getting yearly boosters, still masking and still assuming that every one I run into in public is on a holy crusade to spread mega measles or the like.

It was the magic smoke escaping through the screen.

I never stopped. And I damn well won't be anytime soon.

A large enough proportion of the populace has deemed it their God Given Right to infect anyone and everyone under the doctrine of "It's Just the Flu, Bro".

You have a very good point. Not even remotely remorseful for being motivated by blind hatred, but able to at least consider the babies of a basic ethical framework based solely on pragmatism.

A piece of garbage that has a far better legacy than he deserves.

A 'mooch' is 11 days iirc. So exactly 4 mooches.

With a side hustle in bagel chucking.

Worse than that, he was part of a group that carved out special exemptions for their churches with Hitler. And was a raging anti-semite until his death bed iirc.

So a traditional conservative who only saw evil when it affected him. And only insofar as HOW it affected him.

• Every state in the US (most in the form of being driven through back in the 70s), including Hawaii and Alaska
• Mexico over a dozen times, primarily Laredo
• Canada (for a day as part of a cruise)
• England and Scotland 4 times, including my honeymoon (about a month in total)
• Ireland (part of the aforementioned honeymoon, 4 days, including being in Dublin on St Patrick's Day)
• This part gets a little weird... Italy, Austria, Switzerland, WEST Germany... all before the wall fell
• West Berlin then East Berlin, the latter being the first time I'd ever had a gun pointed at me (polizei)
• Hungary as part of a trip to find where my paternal grandparents had lived prior to coming to the US
• New Zealand for 2.5 weeks to see Hobbiton... as well as a wealth of natural beauty and KORORA
• US Virgin Islands (St John)

EDIT: also France for 6 hours via the Chunnel ;)

One of the weirder BtB's I've heard.

My old standard, 7 Wonders with a couple of expansions (cities and great works).

But I recently started playing Daybreak from the guy behind Pandemic (Matt Leacock) and it's a great cooperative to mitigate climate change. Lots of difficulty setting granularity.

It's also in the Ultima series starting at IV. The second RPG series I played after Wizardry. I also played some Bard's Tale games, but not as much as the former ones.

Damn I'm old.

Bewegen Sie nicht!

Sir-Not-Appearing-In-This-Film

¡impending para un bending!

That movie can be summed up in one line:

"Pass the coke, bro!"

It's such an incoherent, jumbled mess that it makes the garbage Daredevil movie from which it was excreted seem like high art.
