Case

My mistake, thank you for the correction.

I picked up Veilguard because I enjoyed Origins and Inquisition. The second game... at this point, I don't think I took it right and its my problem and I need to give it another chance.

I'm still very early into the game, but the only "woke" thing I've seen so far is variable gender identity during character creation.

You want to play a "woman" who looks masculine, with atypical male traits, even a penis, and a deep voice? You know what, I'm glad the option is open to people. It doesn't vibe with me personally, but I'm glad that people I care about can make a character that is "them," because who hasn't made themselves in an RPG at some point in their life, best they were able.

Again, I'm early to it, but that is all of the "woke" shit I've seen.

For the record, I have friends and family in the LGTBQ+(whatever, doesn't matter) that I support.

I don't want hate in my heart, and I've worked very hard to overcome some biases that came from my more "southern" upbringing. Hell, one of those biased views from the past is now openly trans, and I was the only family member they talked to because they couldn't talk to anyone else.

I'm imperfect, as all humans are, but it isn't hard to fucking TRY, just a little, to realize that someone else's self image and happiness doesn't affect mine other than what pronouns I use to refer to them. Fuck, its not hard. Just don't be a dick.

My second job was as a "Sandwich Artist."

I'm aware, more so than some others.

Also, if you like tuna fish sandwiches there has been a long standing question of whether or not there is actual tuna in their cans. But what I can say, with certainty, at least when I worked there, that the recipe was 90% shitty mayo and very little anything else.

Christianity, Islam, and Judaism are all Abrahamic religions.

To break it down, essentially, different flavors of the same core "food."

Christianity believes in Christ (Jesus Christ) as the messiah and savior. Judaism does not consider Christ to be the messiah, and are still waiting. Islam believes that Jesus was a prophet of the lord (same lord, god, etc) but Mohamed was the first, and thus best (hearkening back to early internet "first" posts that were utterly pointless).

Its all the same shit, but go on.

Yeah, TNO is absolutely an individual character you happen to be in the shoes of.

Without spoiling anything, the game IS TNO's story.

If that doesn't interest you, best of luck in your refund request.

That being said, I've only gotten around to getting one tattoo in my life - The rune of torment.

Yeah, my first thought was the advertisement probably didn't include anything that was actually food.

Of course, the definition of food seems to keep changing as the decades pass by.

I had a vasectomy 14 years ago.

Even if 100% male contraceptive becomes available it was still a wise decision on my part because who knows many mistakes I would have made in the time before it became available?

And, if 100% male contraceptive becomes available, I still wouldn't want to get it reversed. I've never faltered from my position on not having any biological children.

Donated and became a member for legal protection in a very red state.

I've grown differently from Satanism into other areas, but being able to produce a membership card for a legally recognized religion that isn't Christian has its perks in some work places.

Mainly, the group is LITIGIOUS as fuck. They will go to court for a person's employee rights. It wouldn't be the first time.

Yes, one would normally prefer a fixed blade.

However, depending on local laws, that may not be possible to carry.

That reminds me, I'm moving soon, I need to check out some various laws for the new place.

I don't disagree. I tend to have on shows I've seen before. Its background noise more than anything.

Anything more complex than a sit com or such, and I get lost because I wasn't paying attention. I'm not very good at just sitting and watching a movie without something else to occupy my hands/mind.

As a born US citizen, yeah, our shit is fucked. Especially if the GOP stays in power. Back to the puritan days of Plymouth.

If my wife didn't have such a fear of flying, we'd leave the country.

Even GOT missed the mark by the end, if you believe the media sources.

I watched the first season. It was alright.

Usually when I consume movies/TV I'm also gaming, so I didn't get the full impact. My attention was certainly divided.
