Did you all read the article? This dude is a slimy, Christo-fascist sack of shit, but the article title makes it seem like him and other Republican dick bags are withholding aid to the hurricane ravaged areas, which isn't apparent in the article:

"'Well, it can wait because, remember, the day before Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida and then went up through the states and wound up in Senator Tillis’s state of North Carolina, Congress appropriated 20 billion additional dollars to FEMA so that they would have the necessary resources to address immediate needs,' Johnson said."

"FEMA officials say they have sufficient resources to respond to the pair of hurricanes until Congress returns, but they also indicated nearly half that money (10b) is already spent."

This seems more like shitty political theater to me, though if it gets magats to somehow not vote for a crazed lunatic I'm all for it.

Absolutely - Nolan and Joy are incredible, Expanse is master class. However, (and I hate to defend them after GOT ending) D&D aren't the worst - but they are nowhere near these two. The first few seasons of GOT is still fantastic TV. 3 Body Problem had a few issues of missteps in adaptation, but I thought they largely did a good job with the pacing, tone and changes so far. I'd still say it's a good and entertaining show, just not as tight as Fallout or Expanse, since I can point out a few things that don't make a lot of sense.

Super cool. I love the idea of exploring Indian culture and stories through high fantasy in the west. We get so little exposure besides some Bollywood films.

Columbia called the local police to disperse a situation that was getting unsafe fast

Got it, so they called in backup for the neo-nazi assholes.

That's a great place to get a lot of technical, customer service and project management experience.

If it's getting bad, use it to do a deep clean on your pans. Let the half lemon soak in the pan and scrub with the rind.

Thanks for taking the time to comment. I have not tried those things in BotW and TotK. I got to the water temple in Ocarina of Time and got bored, which I heard was common - sincerely tried to beat it because my childhood friends love the game and were excited for me to get through it. Played 10 mins of Majora's mask and BotW. Watched a bunch of videos of BotW and the new game of people doing cool stuff with bombs and gliders. Just not for me I guess, but I totally see the appeal of them.

I can definitely see your point about modern action RPGs catering to lots of mechanics that other games do better and the genre is saturated now with different souls-likes that lack any kind of innovation but I guess they are safe to make due to their popularity.

This. I think people who enjoy it see every enemy as a puzzle. Even developing your character is a bit of a puzzle, figuring out what stats suit the weapons you like and the play style you're aiming for. Conversely, Zelda is incredibly simple and boring to me. Most of the fights are boop boss on the head 3 times, or throw their own bombs back at them 3 times. The only Zelda I enjoyed was the first one.
