That reminds me of another time I was making chilli and came up with a great idea of getting frisky with my wife. Needless to say, it killed the mood.

I can see quality of posts getting worse and worse. Bots reposting, comments filled with low effort puns and one liners. I hardly ever got on Twitter and even less now but before I would see interesting tweets and comments but not anymore. I believe Reddit will be just the same.

I have to go way back and vote for the Shenmu trilogy. Open world and RPG.

I agree that Half Life for action adventure.

Definitely Portal 2 and the Talos Principal for puzzle.

Rocket League is awesome and so are the Skate games.

Crazy Taxi and Paradise City belong somewhere too

I have a book written by Kirsten K. and Christopher Shockey called "Fiery Ferments" and one recipe I use quite a bit, green peppercorn mustard. It's on the hot side, it'll definitely clear your sinuses. Green peppercorn mustard

It's been going on since the founding fathers signed the eclaration eclaration of independence. They were all landowners and some even had slaves. The Constitution was written not for equality or the redistribution of wealth but for the rich, landowners to keep it and keep everyone else away from it.

It's become more obvious now as wealth has grown so incremently with the top 3% having more than some countries and are now at the point of untouchable, able to control so much of what's happening should be no surprise.

Europe did it when first colonialized the New World, claiming Manifest Destiny taking land, wiping out civilizations of people all under the name of god.

It's generational with the belief to not trust the government. They're trying to take it from you.

While one side tells you they're trying to take it from you, the other side is telling you, they're trying to take it from you.

The problem is, they are.

I wish I could say that good judgement will eventually win out. The only way that to happen is if Tuberville is out of the picture. For him it's not about his beliefs. He doesn't have any. It's all about the attention he's getting and the power he's wielding.

He's a very small human. Don't forget he was a football coach and just about every football coach has the old Vince Lombardi mantra drilled in their heads, "Winning isn't everything. It's the only thing". It's all about winning. Decency doesn't matter.

I have family deep in Appalachia where education isn't much of a priority there, most drop out to help farming, coal mining and helping the family whatever way they can.

One man I knew who dropped out at an early age was probably the best mechanic I've ever seen. He could fix just about anything, cars, appliances, you name it.

One instance I recall was that there was a boy with either downs or on the autism spectrum. Back then there was no distinction but I digress. This boy had an old, beat up and very cheap 8 track player that he absolutely loved and couldn't ever part with it. The mechanic was able to keep it working for years and years.

I've been listening to Blondie this week.

Very interesting article. I think it's true they that streaming music services tend to make passive listening to easy. I remember the days of getting a new album, playing it while I read the liner notes, checked out the cover art and listening intently to the lyrics. Now it's too easy to play something, anything while I cook dinner, get ready for work...

I do like SiriusXM. I appreciate the curated approach. DJs that spin the music, adding their own take on a particular track and comments. It tends to break up the passive listening and listen more closely.

My tomatoes are finally ripening after a slow start. What could be the best sandwich ever, a tomato sandwich.

A person can only hope.
