This was the way for me. I started carrying around the XTEINK x3 in a little case strapped to my wallet and whenever I'm out and have downtime I just read a few pages. I've read more books in the last few months than the last decade.
Currently reading Leech by Hiron Ennes
There was a brand called Meati that made steaks out of mycelium that were so goddamn good. Closest to the real thing I've had so far. Unfortunately some shady financial shenanigans cost them their production plant. There's a new owner trying to get them up and running again though so fingers crossed there.
This has been in the works for a century and it's just finally happened.
They tried it once already in the 30s when Bush Jr's grandfather Prescott Bush and his pals tried to get Smedley Butler to overthrow Roosevelt.
Fortunately back then they had a general in mind with some ethics and he didn't play along. This time they found Trump.
The ABC national evening show was gargling his balls like he was going to come back and kiss them afterward. It was sickening.
taking us all the way back to the 40s with the War Department eh?
I would like to stop being banned arbitrarily for "ban evasion" when I was never banned in the first place. That hasn't happened here yet lol..
Yes. I actively engage the people I work with to figure out who is and isn't safe to talk to about this sort of thing and to try to get more of them involved in the community.
It's being talked about in places like this where a tiny fraction of the people are aware of what's going on but not between normal everyday people. I can tell you with no uncertainty that only two or three people in my entire workplace of a few hundred people are even remotely plugged in. Hell even the union reps are asleep at the wheel. They're too busy trying to take care of their kids or pay their rent.
Fuck it, bring in Sean Pertwee to play The Third Doctor and give the show to the Midsomer Murders people for a season set in the stranded on earth working for UNIT era in the 70s.
Similar boat here but I'm only here until my parents go, then I'm done. I don't have any intention of continuing this bullshit until I can't anymore. I didn't ask to be here, I don't want to be here, I just don't want to break anybody when I go.
Can they give me the option to permanently remap the system default inputs? My shoulder buttons don't work and I'd really like to permanently remap them to the extra flippers on the back...
Everquest Online Adventures and then City of Heroes.
For EQOA I had 3 CRT tvs and five PS2s with an account for each one going for a couple of years straight. I worked on the road at the time. I was in a different hotel every two months and lugged that around with me. I was in a guild, led raids, powerleveled my and other people's alts.
City of Heroes was similar. Three accounts, I met my ex wife there, was a prominent member in one of the largest Super Groups in the game. I was there from the first couple months of the game until it shut down.
When I found out about the CoH private servers I went back and caught myself slipping right back to the old ways so I haven't touched a multi-player game since.
