Until we see actual convictions, and appropriate sentences actually executed, none of this means anything.

Stay angry - we haven’t seen justice yet.

Firefox has been my go-to, but I’ve left Chrome installed just to have on hand incase some website fuckiness could be solved with a browser change.

Naw. It’s not worthy of staying around even for that. Time to completely scrub my devices of google.

Idk… I mean sure, the price of literally everything is outpacing my stagnant income, and my benefits are increasingly shit… But there’s a banner outside the parking lot I’m not allowed to use (admins only!) that says “Heroes work here!”

Ya hear that?! I’m a fuckin hero, y’all!! I can’t not be motivated now!

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go shed a single tear while eating a meal of white rice. Again. With some soy sauce packets I stole from the cafeteria.

A FUCKING HERO!

@foggy, @BitSound, @Orbituary, @joshLaserbeam, @ttmrichter, @cokane_88, @watson387, @raptir, @yeetsinfection, @kttnpunk, @Fecundpossum, @Nouveau_Burnswick, @manapropos, @MrJameGumb, @Fump, and at this rate probably a few more just in the time it’ll take to type this.

Holy shit, all.

This thread has been up for like an hour, and I’ve got probably several days worth of back-to-back songs to check out - a whoooole bunch of which is stuff I haven’t seen before.

I did NOT expect this kind of response. Y’all are my hero.

Speaking as a surgical tech: hospital janitorial staff, and sterile processing staff. They are INVISIBLE until something goes wrong, then everyone likes to bitch and point fingers, but they bust their asses constantly to keep us from becoming a giant pathogen cocktail. Hospitals would be fucking disgusting in the scope of like, idk, 2 hours, without those peeps.

Been a little bit since I put one of them in for an award. I think it’s time to flex my keyboard again.

I definitely appreciate games more as a form of self expression

If Enderal isn’t already on your radar, I can’t give that game a high enough recommendation.

Basically an indie dev crew broke skyrim down to its most basic assets, then rebuilt a completely new game using them. AND IT’S SO FUCKING GOOD. Completely new lore / game universe (has nothing at all to do with elder scrolls, tamriel, etc), new voice acting, terrain, music, you name it.

Steers away from common story tropes to the point that there isn’t really an antagonist in the traditional sense - but it uses concepts, emotions, philosophies, etc as the driving force for the main story line and some of the larger quest chains.

This game is an absolute passion project by the devs, which is something we don’t see often now-a-days.

Note: link above is to the version that uses Skyrim SE’s assets (the 2016 re-release). If you have the original version of skyrim, use this link instead. If you own a different version of Skyrim, there might be a compatible version of Enderal here: sureai.net/games/enderal/

Fair warning: the children NPC voice acting is even worse than the kids in Skyrim. The TAI (toggle AI) command can shut them up without breaking them.

Fair warning 2: they redid combat. The OP shit in Skyrim, like the sneaky archer build, will get your ass beat to a pulp in Enderal. Make a save when you get to the point where you can spend some talent points, experiment with a few styles, and go from there.
