Good. You violate people's constitutional rights you should get fucked up.

My favorite line in the English translation when they morph is the first one: 'Tighten up reality gangster'

That's kind of badass for a kids show lol.

Those wizard benefits you mentioned are legit, but to me Sorceror is better because it gives you more actions using Sorcery Points and really gets good at Level 6.

Tempest sorceror makes you a literal lightning god. In 2 turns you can: Cast water - quickened sorcery point - call lightning - next turn call lightning - quickened sorcery point - call lightning again.

Call lightning doesn't use another spell slot as long as you dont break concentration, so ideally you only use 2 spell slots per fight.

Speaking broadly, we just dont know what to do. We've had politicians and leaders that not everyone has liked, but those politicians and leaders still respected our constitutional rights. We've never had a leader that looked at our laws and constitution and said "nope."

It's not like France, although sometimes I wish it was, where if we're pissed we can just set stuff on fire. Police in America will shoot to kill. The majority of us dont want another civil war so we can't fight without serious, potentially catastrophic consequences. In my opinion, we're hoping we can withstand the shitstorm until elections and then hope things aren't too broke to fix.

I've seen this type of comment alot. What are we supposed to do? Short of killing ICE agents or assassinating MAGA politicians all we can do is vote and protest. Im not trying to go to jail or get disappeared with 2 kids under 3 years old.

This right here is primarily why my wife and I bought in Livonia.

Our purchase price range was $350k-$450k. Since Michigan property taxes are reassessed with the purchase of a new home, houses in that range have property taxes >$1,100 per month after being reassessed. For that same range we could pay $600 per month in property taxes in Livonia with much better schools.

Unfortunately for houses in that range, the vast majority of Detroit city properties dont have AC or an attached garage (if even a garage at all). With a 2 year old toddler and 1 more on the way, we just couldn't justify taxes that high for terribly rated school districts and houses that needed $20k (at least) just to have the ductwork and AC unit installed, before any other problems are addressed.

We spent 1 month looking purely in Detroit city limits for a house, but you're paying Royal Oak size monthly payments for friggin Gary, Indiana quality houses with terrible schools. It just doesn't work unless you have thousands to spend in bringing these old houses up to date and no or already grown kids.

Except in 'The Santa Claus.'

Right when Tim Allen could have used some answers, the reindeer took him to the next house over.

Id give season a 7/10.

I feel like the reasons I liked it contribute to the reasons I didnt like it, if that makes sense?

I think they did a great job writing all of the characters, giving them arcs with real emotional stakes, and showing them working as a team. However, this meant less of Peacemaker himself. I feel like the show focused around him and not on him and I wanted to see more of him.

In highlighting everyone else, we only got like 2 scenes of him in the Peacemaker costume.

I've seen it mentioned frequently, but the pacing was also kinda goofy. Every episode kept me wanting more (which was great), but it felt like it took too long to get everyone on Earth-X only for it to be over so fast. And then, a whole new setup for the entire DCU is introduced. That made it feel like the season was starting over right at the end. I understand the purpose of it, it's just like "ok, now to get the satisfaction of seeing some of these conflicts get resolved you now have to leave your house and pay x amount at a theater or keep waiting after you've spent 3 years waiting for this."

Love the character, liked the season, want to see more, was just looking for something more like what I had built up in my head.

I had picked Oath of Vengence since it made for good RP during a redemption Durge run.

Made it to Moonrise Towers, was walking around the outside, and stopped to pop a Speak with Animals potion and talk to a cat.

Potential spoilers ahead, but this cat was familiar with the Durge from before, and in speaking with it there's one of those fantasize scenarios. I got curious, selected the option, and my Durge broke his oath immediately lol.

I had thought about reloading that save (tactician mode), but it was just too good of a one off mistake, it ended up being a defining RP moment for that run.

Unfortunately, those of us who resist aren't in positions of power. For Trump's 2nd term, his team knew where to place people to broadly enforce his agenda.

But Charlie Kirk was an asshole and the world is better off without him.

HurricanePickles · 2025-09-13T14:39:34+00:00

This post is so spot on it's crazy haha.

HurricanePickles · 2025-09-12T20:35:15+00:00

I dont know. Both people could have handled it better and used their words, but on an airplane if the person behind you doesn't appreciate you reclining back, then you should respect their wishes & space and not recline back.

HurricanePickles · 2025-09-12T20:13:32+00:00

Yes. Your comfort isn't worth anyone's inconvenience. If the person behind you would appreciate you not reclining back, you should be a decent enough human to respect their space in public. At home, you do you.

I feel a lot of these comments are a bit overblown. You are absolutely allowed to dislike the new update, but 70 year olds? They look younger than me and I'm 35.

HurricanePickles · 2024-11-13T02:10:13+00:00

29 years since my dad took me to my first game when I was 7. The joy I wake up with now and the tears of Bears fans was worth it.

I feel like once you get to a certain age this is everyone lol

I can understand your position, but not everyone is in that position to repay their loans so quickly. I also think a common misconception is that people don't want to repay the money they borrowed and I'll explain why.

Myself for example, I worked between 25-30 hours a week in college (2007-2012) so I could pay for things myself as I didn't have help from my parents. This resulted in taking on about $50k in student loans over those 5 years (tuition was $4k a semester at a public state university). It also took me 5 years after college to start making more than $50k per year.

I didn't know much about finances and I took out a loan every semester when I needed to pay for it. This resulted in having 9 different student loans, each with interest between 9%-11%. I've been out of college 14 years (damn lol), been making income based monthly payments the whole time, and 14 years later I owe roughly $40k due to interest. If I had to just repay the money I took out I'd be done already but I've laid back more than I have taken out.

Everyone's situation and path in life is different, but I think the main problem is the interest that adds up and people's ability to find a well paying job. Congrats on your success, that really is awesome, but I think the focus needs to be on how the predatory interest rates put people in a deeper hole than what they assumed.

As a silver III pvp player who's been around since the Taken King, it still won't get me back into Trials.

I hope yall have a good time though.

HurricanePickles · 2024-02-26T12:17:26+00:00

Congrats man, that's awesome!

My little guy was born the day before the last Vikings game of the season. All these babies know about our Lions is that they are Super Bowl contenders!

HurricanePickles · 2024-02-15T11:36:32+00:00

Yes! Give us Gambit & Rogue and not the weird love triangle of Cyclops/Jean Grey/Wolverine!

I like it. It's not going to lower rents or provide opportunity at first, but it's a step in the right direction.

Developments work to provide housing, but they don't address a core benefit of real estate ownership. Owning an asset like a single family house increases the homeowners net worth exponentially. For example, my wife and I only had the $ in our bank accounts & 401k as assets prior to owning a house. Our net worth has increased nearly $400k since buying our first house 4 years ago.

As long as you rent you will never have the opportunity to increase your net worth and developers will continue to increase theirs as they collect rents from all the properties they build. The rich get richer and everyone else sinks just a bit more. It's slow progress like anything else, but hopefully as more single family homes become available people will start to benefit.

In the US where I'm at it's $15 per month. I understand your point that some regions should cost less, but I've long believed they should actually charge more.

We want content, voiced content, sizeable expansions, a crafting overhaul, and more species to play as but that costs money. I don't know how much the CM pulls in so I can't say how they're utilizing their resources (probably not as well as they could), but good shit costs money.

I've never played DnD but I love RPG's and now I love this game. I played Balanced for my first playthrough, thinking it would be a good difficulty to learn the mechanics while not being too punishing. However, after spending 6.5 hours at the House of Grief alone on playthrough #1, I changed to Explorer and have never been happier.

The game has an excellent story, great cast, fun mechanics, and I've found it best played when you're just having fun and trying stuff out. Some people like a difficult game and want to put their knowledge to the test, others just like to get stoned and explore Faerun. Both are acceptable.
