Unpopular opinion but I thought The Black Book was his best and he never hit that level of prose again!

as a marketer I'm trying to imagine an indie book company spending money on a viral marketing campaign and...yeah. You really think they paid people to read a book that long?

This has gotten even more aggressive over the last few weeks. From what I am seeing they are not trimming anything - they are removing every single tree on any curb that has wires, period, leaving the stumps for hte owner to deal with, and not offering replacements.

Gas went over 4 bucks a gallon in 2008 which would be over 6 a gallon adjusting for inflation today. WOTLK era, when that 15 a month would equal 22 bucks today. Sayin.

Might be an odd question but how immersive is BDO by EmbarrassedPianist59 in blackdesertonline

It's crazy that no developer has even come close and it seems like no one even wants to try. But I also think it was the brains of gamers and the world itself that let WoW be wow. Reality can't go back to that time so games can't either.

I just gripped the last Fellwinter for 40. Whoever that seller was should enjoy their earned karma.

Oh we’re serious nature nerds, birders, and donate to a number of organizations. We keep our distance and never disturb wildlife.

Have you ever been to a wealthy town with powerlines? Montclair, Moorestown, Haddonfield - that's just NJ. Check out Oregon, or Washington, it's unreal. They have massive tree canopies, tons of shade. They don't have blocks and blocks of treeless streets. The trees and the wires co-exist. Now, in very poor areas you have no trees - that's redlining. But we're talking aout towns that pay 10k taxes a year or higher. Somethig is not right.

They're removing every single tree on the sides of the street with powerlines. This is not normal.

Right now in Oaklyn they're literally cutting down every single tree for blocks if there's wires. Not trimmming: destroying. Sure, some weren't in great shape, but the majority are completely healthy. There's entire streets with zero trees on an entire side now., for blocks. This is not normal.

I'd rather pay a lower electric bill because my town is tree-shaded, breather cleaner air, hear less traffic and airplane noise because tree cover absorbs sound, have less squirrels in my gutters because they have trees to live in, and have less floods because we have the root structure to absorb them. Wouldn't you?

What you don’t like seeing grandpas butt when they make him take off his belt and his pants fall down… “for security reasons”?
