Time enjoyed is not wasted.

I keep trying to get this through to my wife, who burns herself out frequently with some dire consequences.

Unless things change drastically for their RPG division, I'll repeat what I've said since oblivion. Bethesda makes great modding platforms, the content within the game is a loose theme that modders can play with.

Yes the new Fallouts are just TES in the Apocalypse.

Yes starfield is little more than TES in space.

I buy Bethesda games for mod potential.

If they said no mods to all future games I wouldn't buy another one. I don't play ESO and I have never touched fallout 76 for this reason.

Imagine losing your father in a tragic fashion, only for Hollywood execs to make a marketable facsimile of appearance and voice. If they could store his corpse and make it dance like a marionette they would.

Talk about retraumatizing the poor lady.

I came to, apparently, agree with you. My exact thought.

This is clearly a trick to get into power, and we all know Republicans love power before anything else. Morals, the children, the budget, actual constitutionally protected rights, etc.

I have no say in this, but my vote goes toward any AI generated nudity meant to be arousing.

If you, the poster, meant it to be arousing, then it flies.

You get the government you voted for?

For so many people in this country that isn't the case.

I live in a deep red state. I sure as fuck did not vote that way.

The country has gotten so bad that I'm not looking into moving States any more. I'm looking at other countries.

I would have less of an issue with the DARE program if it was actually educational, and not just progaganda in the drug war.

Face it people, drugs won.

Anything that can hijack the pleasure center of your brain can be problematic. Whether it be drugs, food, sex, whatever.

Balance in all things.

So possibly, in a thousand years or so, we could have parasites that improve our lives in every conceivable way.

Just need to eat an egg salad sandwich from a truckstop restroom coin op machine.

Edit: I'm a little busy at work, so maybe I read the replies wrong - but this was a Futurama reference.

If an attacker has physical access then you're already screwed in most cases.

I worked in a pediatric hospital... attractive ladies were a dime a dozen. All batshit crazy though.

I can understand not wanting to pay a kid for lawn work, I've been broke before. Just say no thank you and go on with life.

That being said, we hire kids in our neighborhood all the time.

We have two girls (9 and 6, I think, never met them, grandma drives and "supervises") who come pick up dog poop, and we've had a kid for a couple years who turned mowing yards in the summer into an LLC and he just hired his first employee to help out with client growth.

I know if he wasn't a white blonde kid who looks halway decent (long hair, which just makes me jealous, but boomers would have a fit) then the Karen's would call the cops.

Someone in the neighborhood called the cops about a black woman going through mailboxes. It was a postal worker, in uniform, in a clearly labeled mail truck. I just don't get it.

Due to my job I was a mandatory reporter for suspected child abuse.

This means I was legally liable to report any suspicion of child abuse or neglect. I could lose my job, face a fine, and/or face jail time.

I had to call CPS for a friend's kid.

The friend was not the problem, her ex husband was.

Long story short, the kid is fine, and the friend now has a different spouse and many more kids with the new spouse, lol.

It was the right thing to do, even though the friend didn't want to involve a government agency to handle it. Just caused a strained friendship for a while.
