Thank you!
- Comment on BREEEEET 5 weeks ago:
If I knew how to attach pictures to comments there would be a picture here of my shelf that has one if these games sitting on it.
- Comment on Do all conservatives hate immigrants? Do I HAVE to hate immigrants if I want to be a real conservative? 1 month ago:
Political affiliation has nothing to do with hate. We as humans are capable of hate no matter our beliefs.
That said the converse is also true.
- Comment on I hate how many people are against russian ancestry 2 months ago:
Who the fuck hates people for their ancestry? I mean seriously that’s one of the fucking dumbest things any human could do!
- Comment on He Did It: Trump Calls for Ending the Federal Income Tax! 2 months ago:
Thank you. That was very insightful.
- Comment on He Did It: Trump Calls for Ending the Federal Income Tax! 2 months ago:
So there is a lot of history mentioned in the article. I was reasonably certain while reading that there is history that can be used to provide a counter argument. Then I read your comment and was sure of it, sadly you were light on details and I would really love to hear them.
- Comment on President Trump has handed his press conference over to victims of Hurricane Helene and is asking them on national television to name the insurance companies that have stiffed them. 2 months ago:
Its easy to find the clip on YouTube.
- Comment on New earbuds - Technics EAH-AZ100 3 months ago:
I bought a pair a couple of weeks ago. I needed earbuds that would connect to more than two devices so I didn’t have to keep re-pairing them. They are fantastic.
- Comment on What's the deal with male loneliness? 3 months ago:
I think there is a lot of wisdom here. I’m old, many of my meaningful relationships were formed before three was an internet. Now I use online tools to stay in touch with friends who are friends I have interacted with face-to-face, not people know solely online.
That’s not to say meaningful relationships cannot be owned online. I have met a number of people IRL who I originally met playing Football Manager or on XBox Live.
But online relationships are not a substitute for real face-to-face interactions.
I tell people that making friends needs to be intentional. It takes work and commitment.

She knows she is in the minority.
I am just sad she’s missing out.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 3 months ago:
Witcher 3 is my number 1 game of all time. My wife won’t play it because she hates Geralt’s voice.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 3 months ago:
We’re playing on XBox Series X, and it behaves reasonably well. We typically split-screen while exploring, and merge the screens during battles.
When playing Divinity:Original Sin 2 we remained in merged screens 90% of the time, but for some reason it feels off in BG3, so we go with the merge only in battles.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 3 months ago:
Baldurs Gate 3 split screen with my wife.
- Comment on Starlink broadband attracting residents to remote West Virginia - West Virginia Explorer 3 months ago:
Very very, heartbreakingly poor. When we first got to Kentucky was blown away by the number of “coal it keeps the lights on” license plates.
My wife hits 30 years in six years. Kentucky is high on my list of places for us to retire to.
- Comment on Starlink broadband attracting residents to remote West Virginia - West Virginia Explorer 3 months ago:
When my wife PCSed from Long Island to Fort Knox we made several trips where we passed through West Virginia and I was always blown away at how gorgeous it is.
- Comment on [Definitely not a weekly thread] Men over 30, how is your week going? 3 months ago:
Great week. Off work and enjoying playing BG3 with my wife.
- Comment on $59 Voice "Preview Edition" adds an offline smart speaker to your Home Assistant server 4 months ago:
I don’t allow voice controls in my home, so this is a welcome development.
- Comment on We have the best shaped states, don't we folks 5 months ago:
In June we moved from the Fried Chicken to the chef’s nostrils. Now we are boogers
- Comment on Fired Employee Allegedly Hacked Disney World's Menu System to Alter Peanut Allergy Information. 5 months ago:
A while back a woman died after eating at a Disney restaurant and being assured that the food she was ordering was allergen free. Disney responded very poorly to the husband’s suit, but I wonder if the Disney employee believed things were allergen free because of one of these hacked menus.
- Comment on Paradox think there's no point competing with XCOM after their Lamplighters flop - it's "winner takes all" in the "tactical gaming space" 6 months ago:
This is so disappointing. I am a huge fan of Harebrained. Battletech is fantastic. I’m unsure why Lamplighters was unable to do what it needed to do.
- Comment on Nolte: CBS Corruption – Anchor Shamed for Coates Interview, ‘60 Minutes’ Rigs Kamala Interview 6 months ago:
So, definitely not conservative, but the first part of that headline is absolutely accurate. The man who asked Coates difficult questions has been publicly criticized by the network.
The second part of that headline is absolutely bullshit.
