I’ve platinumed every version of every FROM Soulsborne game on every platform that has trophies/achievements.

We’re currently in it. Failing to create a clean, renewable, and scalable energy source powerful enough to run a society that is ever increasing in both population and technology without destroying their only inhabited planet has got to be the most common great filter.

Asteroids strikes, super volcanoes, solar CMEs, and other planetary or cosmetic phenomena that exactly line up in both severity and timing are too rare IMO.

Every society that attempts to progress from Type 1 to Type 2 has to deal with energy production. Most will fail and they will either regress/stagnate or destroy themselves. Very few will successfully solve the energy problem before it is too late.

Safely OR legally? Shouldn’t that be “and”?

Ted Lasso. It’s one of the best TV shows to come out in years. Apple TV is easily worth the price just for Ted Lasso, but Foundation and For All Mankind were good too.

The Rookie and Shogun on Hulu. Fallout and Psych on Prime.

The Eye was proven to not be all-seeing or all-knowing. Same with the Ring Wraiths. And Orcs were shown numerous times to be inept guards.

So have an eagle fly Frodo to Mt. Doom on a night with a new moon, above the clouds. There is no way they would be spotted. A curse, while stupid, is the only explanation that really puts this plot hole to rest IMO.

Whenever I am cooking dinner or doing chores during the week after work I have a sitcom on in the background. New Girl, Friends, The Office, TBBT, etc. I’ve seen them dozens of times, but there is something about having them on the TV in the evening that reminds me of childhood. Simpler times maybe, I dunno. But I find it extremely relaxing.

Then every other year or so I’ll go through Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis, because they are probably my favorite shows.

I just created a junk Gmail account that I use for everything that I don’t care about and never login into. Why does it matter “how much you use it”?

I was in line at a convenience store the other day, when the person in front of me bought a dozen or so scratch tickets. Normally, I wouldn’t have gave it a second thought, people gamble. But what made it stand out to me was that the person made the cashier just immediately scratch the QR code square and scan the ticket. Like, the person didn’t even touch the tickets. Just handed over the money, and made the cashier do the work. Not only that, but the cashier didn’t even bat an eye; as this seemed like a normal occurrence to them. And the person in front of me didn’t win anything, they just walked away with nothing.

So not only was it extremely sad to see this person, who is clearly addicted to gambling, waste their money. But, seeing how the industry has made it so easy and fast for someone to piss their money away was quite disgusting. These people don’t even play the game on the cards now. They just scratch off the code and scan it. Just sad all around.
