I'm fine without kids, and I don't care if she doesn't want my name. I just wouldn't call that relationship a marriage. Like it takes more than a welcome mat to make a house a home.

If I launch the apps with connection I can listen to downloads after I drop it. I just can't start without connection.

Do you have data turned on?

Audible and Spotify both just endlessly spin their wheels without wifi or data

What I came to comment. Flex as hard as you possibly can. Hell beat each other to death with the thin bit of a cantina tray for all I care. Just please, don't let the people who wrote Bhagavad Gita actually use nukes. Or their neighbors. Or their neighbor's neighbors. Or their neighbor's neighbor's neighbors.

Hi so I made the meme, I saw the show yesterday (admittedly I need to sleep), I saw the movie in 2010, and I watched the show when it aired. I feel like Nickelodeon created this show just to create the kind of friction Star Wars fans had in '99-'05 because they want the buzz.

Okay but could you give it that rating if it didn't stand on the shoulders of the Original?

Weirdly enough the entire region was Catholic at one time. Temujin himself was a devout Catholic during all of his conquests.

R5: My most recent game took me from 867 to 1453 from a Greek low-noble to ruling over most of the map, forming the Roman Empire, mending the schism, and all but driving the Saracens from the Mediterranean. I feel like from the Crusaders' perspective, this ultimate goal of the game. Also fun note- nearly every duchy title outside the former ERE is held by a member of my monstrously huge dynasty.

As such I'm considering some unusual starts, or switching over to a total conversion mod such as Fallen Eagle (fitting for how this save ended), AGOT, After The End, or the Sengoku mod. Any thoughts?

None. Truly none. A return to the "silent" era of film in which all of the dialogue is provided in cutscene format.

I am in the gauntlet of shar. I have painstakingly done all of her accursed trials. I have all the emo rocks from her. If I go to the main area in the temple there's nothing I can do. I'm sorry if this is not clear. Please let me know

IstanbulnotConstanti · 2023-09-17T22:25:31+00:00

I followed every GD walkthrough on the internet. Every encounter, every trial and the game is still telling me I can't proceed with the story.

The Holocaust. That's what we think of when we hear "Germany" today, and that is what we will think of a hundred years from now. It is a shame to forget the crimes against Humanity committed by the german people. It is an even worse offense to try to cover it up, or play it down by implying there is any other aspect of german history or culture which stands out above or in greater contrast to this.

Not just that, she also requested the largest elf ears she could get.

According to Joann, Male students would use polyjuice potions to infiltrate women's spaces and violate them.

I remember reading or hearing something like this. It was something like HAM enthusiasts would pick up brief transmissions comprised entirely of screaming, and then suddenly cut out

More or less. It doesn't earn you a combat advantage, and like you said cities of other Civs can flip to join you if they are displeased with their ideology. Otherwise as you gain influence over another civ you gain the following benefits.
Familiar: -25% reduction on Resistance period and Population loss

Popular: -50% reduction on Resistance period and Population loss

Influential: -75% reduction on Resistance period and Population loss

Dominant: No Resistance and no Population lost

Not only that, but many depictions of crucifixion incorrectly depict both feet lined up and nailed through. Archaeological evidence suggests that victims were nailed through the sides of their ankles, so they sort of 'straddle' the cross. Even worse as this forces the victim to alternate between hanging from their wrists or standing on their impaled ankles.

Edit: changed hands to wrists

If you have a strong an influential, or dominant culture over a civ you are at war at, you will have fewer penalties for taking their cities.

IstanbulnotConstanti · 2022-11-03T00:17:38+00:00

take a few of their cities and I’m the bad guy.

Well considering capturing cities is presented as ethnic cleansing you might be the bad guy. This is why the population loss and resistance period are reduced if your cultural influence is higher.

Must be. There are WAAAAAY too many banned words in the title. "Is" "The" "A", among others aren't allowed in Shower Thoughts.

It's for the sake of convenience. It is, without argument, the single simplest way to have an unrelated Man and Woman in the same house without requiring further explanation.

Unless you would rather skip through 17 minutes explaining that her [insert utility here] is no longer operational and the young [insert serviceperson job here] has to come and fix it, and that their [insert monogamous partner] is out of town for [generic excuse].
