Thats like the oppisite of the issue here.

Remembrance is so deeply ingrained into our society, that a lot of people in power are struggling to even criticise Israel.

Add to that highly emotionally charged discourse and frustration in the general public at these protests plus cops being cops, jumping at an opportunity to bash lefties and you get this bullshit.

Basically the cop felt like teaching that kid a lesson.. Nothing will ever come from this, its just overreach.

Double space + linebreak
for this and double linebreak

For a paragraph.

Doesn't help that thunder seems to eat a trailing space when you linebreak.

I'm not buying the travel didgeridoo they're trying to sell me via insta ads constantly. I don't play the didgeridoo.

Perks of declining cookies and disabling personalised ads anywhere i can.

Same same, i try to be aware of it and ground myself when i do catch it drift into just verbalising anxiety with no real benefit.

Especially when i should be enjoying reality instead, like during a movie, concert or hike

Imo its just a different thing.

Like, 1 or 2 here with sort of moving images like memories, sounds, conversations.

I still listen to interviews despite being able to make up convos in my head. I watch comedy despite being able to make up jokes and funny stories.

I watch movies despite being able to visualise whatever i want.

When i zone out, i can have full conversations with people ive never met in my mind while walking to work.

Basically flying blind through traffic, unless something relevant registers on my "conscious" mind.

Its about the ability to visualize things in your mind.

I'm guessing you're somewhere in the right half? /jk

Not sure who would ever need an SUV, especially in an urban env. Most of the common ones have zero off roading capabilities either, so work vehicles are usually specialised.

Thanks for the link though, I'll forward it :)

Yeah tbh there would be no harm in banning them. If you need a work truck, those are fine. No person in the world needs an SUV or an oversized pickup truck

Even the most reliable drivers overlook something, get distracted by something on the road or in the car. These features absolutely help more than they harm.

Risk of Rain Returns Released! (store.steampowered.com)
submitted 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

The first two are probably in my top 5 games of all time. This one combines both into an experience closer to the first while adding new stuff.

Can't wait to boot it up later!

Edit to add some info:

The Risk of Rain series is now three games, all run-based roguelites. That means you start out with a set amount of characters.. Most of the cast still locked.

You start a run, collect items along the way, kill beasts, slay bosses and get bonkers strong.

Each stage ends with charging and defending a teleporter which triggers a bossfight and waves of mobs.

Depending on how well you do, what secrets (esp. in RoR2 proper hidden puzzles to figure out) you uncover and which challenges you beat, you unlock items for future runs, and characters.

The kicker of the formula to me is the difficulty mechanic: the more time passes, the harder it gets. Regardless of your progress im the run.

Depending on mode/modifiers you might choose to grind out the first stage, rush to a certain point for a basic set of items, or push towards the boss.

This much is true for all of them - though I haven't played Returns yet.

The first one is a pretty old-school 2D sidescroller/plattformer with a steep learning curve due to the limited mobility and static aim.

The second one is a 3D third person shooter/brawler depending on character. It features some more in depth decision making, secret stages, hidden unlocks, more challenge stages, character variations etc etc.

It's more modern style and fantastic movement make it a bit more approachable imo.

The third goes back to the roots. It's a 2d sidescrolling game but much more modern and polished compared to the first one. It features characters and items from both predecessors, as well as a host of new stuff to dig into!

 

No clue if too moist or too little FAE, but I'm here for whatever the fuck this is :)

Left bag is also doing a weird blob which sprouted two separate new growths too:

Already harvested some parts of the left one, as they were getting slightly brownish at the tips.

 

I've been going ot the gym for a little while, using GZCLP on Perseus.
Been making steady progress (besides a longer dip after a nasty cold) but I still struggle with deadlifts, especially now that they're getting a bit heavier.

  1. I got a shit back and inherent anterior pelvic tilt, it's easy to tweak the lower back for me. I put a lot of emphasis on keeping it straight, neutralizing the tilt and bracing the core to support it.
    Still, sometimes I feel the pinch near the sides of the lumba spine. Any advice to help with that would be phenomenal.

  2. I got stupid knees. They're not injury prone or anything, but they stick out. Several times now I bruised them pretty severely, mostly on the way down. The bar slides down the quads - as I learned it should - and then bonk into the tissue just above the patella before continuing around the knee.
    What am I doing wrong?

Here's my form at the moment of impact

The first flush stopped with two pingpong sized fuzzy balls, after low oxy, high temperature thanks to a record summer.

This is the second flush. Probably got too moist and a bit too warm again because of a late heatwave. Any other guesses on why its so deformed?

Will make some battered wings from this :)
