RogueProphet brought that up in his most recent video, i guess the devs did a Q&A, and they said something about having separated trials, but it seemed to be in early talks. I need to watch the Q&A, but here's the highlights.

    It was originally supposed to be a coop PvE game, but turned into PvPvE along the way.

    The PvE and PvP lobbies are basically like that already. I have carebear lobbies for solo and trios are pure PvP. People literally do naked runs where of they don't get the right spawn, they surrender and try again until they get the right spawn, then run straight there and loot, throw the thing in their safe pocket and surrender. The only time people fight arc in the PvP lobbies is if they are stopping them from looting the players they just killed.

    Night raids, Hurricane, Locked Gate, etc. are all not eligible for PvE lobbies in the new system, and the loot value is reduced if you do PvE.

    Look up a youtube channel called Mr. Global. He used to work some huge oil companies for decades, and ran his own for a bit. He breaks down a ton of this stuff.

    For one, Iran is blocking a major shipping route for Iraq, Kuwuit, and Saudi Arabia. Even though we don't import that much from there, the rest of the world does, and so supply is down, but demand remained the same. For two, the US oil companies are making record oil exports to these other countries that used to get their supply from the middle east.

    I feed our kitties when i get home from work, usually around 7am. I get to work from home one night a week, and every week, he does this, usually starting at 2am. The other two don't beg, but they are also nowhere near as chonky.

    This. This is something that more Americans should be aware of. State legislatures are generally less corrupt than federal, and more responsive to voters. The framers put a way to make amendments that completely bypasses the federal government for a reason. It's never happened because every time a convention is close to being called, the federal government passes that amendment, seeing the writing in the wall.

    Astarion has the best relationship narratives IMO, and was by far more satisfying than any other. He's been broken for so long, forced to seduce thousands of people, never having any of his own choices. When you finally show him that he has that now, that when the REAL relationship with him starts.
