This breakdown of voters should be included in every disclaimer on ever poll that’s comes out online, in the news, or on the radio. That’s not a small number of people, but it is a SIGNIFICANT minority and the country needs to not be held hostage by 15% of the population.
Yup…that sucks. But the military taught me “no excuses.” We need to outlast, out organize, and out fight them. Volunteer to help - Teri Kanefield (she’s on mastodon) has some incredible tips - Obama calls it Citizenship.
I just graduated optometry school and I feel like I’ve lost a bit of my identity. I didn’t have much free time to focus on the things that make me happy and now I’m lacking inspiration. I can’t work until my license is approved so I’ve had days of doing nothing since May 7. It’s been great but it’s starting to get...
If you’re going self taught, you can’t go wrong with JustinGuitar.com. He has some great lessons and it’s all free. You can upgrade and he has paid stuff, but I’ve never done them. If you are in the right place and can swing it, take some classes. If you find the right instructor it’ll be awesome. I didn’t take lessons for years but finally sprung for them. I don’t think it’s made a difference that I can tell but my wife says I’m paying much better.

Is it still with buying a PS4 to play TLOU? Is a PS4 worth it if you have never owned one?
I can buy a PS4 local to me for pretty cheap. I do have a decent having PC but my life ATM revolves around kids so I don't get a chance to sit down in the study to play.
I'm thinking if it's in the loungeroom I can at least play it in short bursts.
I have a pc and bought an Xbox series S. The XBOX was so that I can play COD with my brother in law. Everyone was talking how awesome game pass is, but it was underwhelming to me. Lots of good games, but I ended up scrolling through it like Netflix and never settled on anything.
But I’ve been spending so much time lately on my PS4. I’m working through Spiderman. Next I’m going to revisit God of War 2018 or TLOU…I haven’t decided yet. I think if you can get it for cheap, the single player experiences can’t be beat (well, maybe by a PS5). I love my PS4 and and really enjoying it on my 65” Visio. The graphics look good as hell and the sound is fantastic. I don’t feel like I’m missing anything. Eventually I’ll upgrade to a PS5, but that day isn’t coming for a little while yet.
With regards the “short bursts”. I have two kids and COD is my short burst game. TLOU and the single player games are paced out such that you may need a little bit longer session in terms of sweet spot enjoyment, but YMMV.
I’ve been prescribed medical for about a year for chronic insomnia and have been slowly making my way through modern Dr Who before bed. Almost at the end of Calpadi’s seasons and need some recommendations of what to watch next....
I’m late to the party, and there’s only one season, but we just finished Silo on Apple. That show was badass. There’s a second season already filming.
I know you asked for shows, but the Expanse books (especially the first 2) and beyond awesome. The science and the approach to uneven technology distribution and advancement is so cool. I haven’t seen the show yet though so can’t speak to that. I can read after a sesh, but not everyone can.
