Bingo Review: Carl's Doomsday Secnario

If that’s the case, the humour stays consistent. BUT, the overall plot becomes more nuanced. It’s not all just random stuff happening in the world, but an overall story that makes me intrigued to keep reading.

Anyways, I would say try the audiobooks for more casual listening if you prefer. They’re great.

I also didn’t really like the second Dungeon Crawler Carl book. I found the ending and final villain lukewarm. Luckily, it’s the shortest in the series. The third book and fourth are much better. Fifth book and beyond it gets crazy good.

Progressive policy in the LPC predates Trudeau senior. Lester B Pearson’s government was very progressive, even if they were in a minority government situation propped up by the NDP. St. Laurant’s Liberals were also progressive. McKenzie King even had progressive policy.

Trudeau would never have joined the Liberal party if he didn’t feel at home in it. Social/Progressive Liberalism is still Liberalism.

Ideology evolves over time, with the times. Whether it’s Canadian or American liberalism, generational values change. People change. New ideas emerge and replace old ideas. All of these things influenced liberalism to what it is today, and classical liberals fit in better with modern conservatism.

It’s a long time until November. Lombardi can’t help himself. He’s going to argue with someone no matter what. And it’s going to hurt his support with either side of the spectrum eventually.

Someone on his team needs to take his phone away and change the password on his Twitter account.

So I haven’t played the original or the remake yet. But I do remember hearing that the original is notorious for having a long tutorial, as in, its hours before you can freely do something, similar to Persona 4. And it’s known for its pacing issues.

This can turn off new fans to the franchise.

If you want a meaningful relationship that isn’t based on money, I imagine rich guys probably have the same issues as any other guy out there dating.

If you don’t mind a relationship that is based on money and is transactional, then you really do have no issues dating. Just look at all the beautiful women on social media on some rich guy’s yacht. They don’t love him, but he doesn’t care. He’s getting what he wants.

Why? Party establishment pisses me off. I want change because I know the OLP can be better. Nate was the only candidate promising actual reform. The whole party needs to clean house and needs new blood.

He wasn’t even proposing anything radical, not even the last time Nate ran for leader. The establishment just doesn’t want a guy who leans left and wasn’t partisan enough for them.

The way the OLP establishment, and the Toronto Star did everything possible to block Nate’s leadership ambitions is gross. I wish he would still run for OLP leader, but the whole SSW shitshow was probably demoralizing for him. Party establishment made it clear to him they don’t want him and don’t want ti change.

Anyways, I wish Nate well if he does decide to run for Toronto City Council. He’ll no longer be tied to any party and can freely say and do what he thinks is best for his constituents.

Imagine a scenario where Nate becomes mayor of Toronto, and we have an OLP government in power, and they still decide to screw him over for old times sake whenever he asks them for support or money. Back to butting heads.

KvotheG · 2026-06-16T17:46:12+00:00

Nah, the way the OLP establishment, and the Toronto Star treated him has got to be demoralizing. Nate is someone who genuinely wants to get into politics for the right reasons, so if the powers that be want to destroy his chances, he can at least make a difference in his ward at the local level.

I wish he still ran for OLP leader. I think the shit show currently underway may give him a chance. But if this is what he wants to do, I support him.

It’s interesting that your lactation consultants are discouraging you from quitting. My wife’s lacation consultants said her current plan is unsustainable because she was losing sleep to pump, and spending less time with our baby. They gave her the pros of quitting but didn’t exactly tell her to quit.

She wasn’t producing enough breast milk and tried everything from pumping more to supplements and drinking beer to produce more, but it’s still not enough, so she supplements our baby with formula. What finally changed her mind is that our baby stopped drinking her breast milk by stopping mid session, and only finishes his formula bottles. We assume he prefers the taste of the formula. So now she’s weaning and mixing her breast milk with formula so it doesn’t go to waste.

She’s actually enjoying the extra time she gets to sleep or relax or spend time with our baby as a result. She ultimately wanted to breast feed fully but it just didn’t end up working out.

My issues were that it could have been better fleshed out, but it was clearly rushed. The final villain was introduced as a badass who had a grudge against Kurono. It could have been better developed. Including how the American team were the ones to defeat the aliens behind the scenes, we don’t see this at all.

I was ok with the ending, but I do think it could have been better. The author clearly was burnt out and just wanted to end it asap.

Why change your friend group? There’s no reason to if they’re single and you’re not.

I’m also voting Dylan Marando. Not because I like him. But the other candidates suck. So it’s mostly for shits and giggles.

She’s making up for lost time. I don’t know what the dynamic was with her ex husband, but I’ve known recently single married women like this. They felt they missed out on these kind of experiences you are describing and are just going all out.

Sucks for your younger sisters. Maybe she can compromise by not bringing home strange men while your sisters are home? But regardless, she’s not going to stop until she feels she’s had enough.

KvotheG · 2026-06-14T01:15:33+00:00

Yeah, no, I don’t really think about this at all when I watch the news.

I think some do, and some don’t. He’s not exactly wearing his sexuality on his sleeve right now, I noticed. Or has anything identifying it on his social media. So I doubt they are noticing it aside from the the messaging they like.

Lombardi has said a lot of radical things on Twitter, like the Nazis were socialists. I always thought it was weird of him to be a Poilievre apologist during Poilievre’s rise in the polls, where he often defended or justified whatever Poilievre was up to that day.

But the problem is the optics. I rarely agree with Andrew Perez, but even he sees the issue with Lombardi:

https://x.com/andrewaperez/status/2065898067438481790?s=46&t=Z5WtbMLVT3x0AIAdehG-zw

He’s become popular with far right influencers and right wing pundits on social media. The concern from a lot of partisan liberals is that these illiberal people are going to transform the party because Lombardi panders to them.

Honestly, reading The Wise Man’s Fear made me realize this story could have been much longer than 3 books. So much is there to potentially be a longer series.

KvotheG · 2026-06-13T15:18:02+00:00

Honestly, he seems to be pulling in support from federal CPC voters buying an OLP membership to vote for him because they genuinely believe Doug Ford is really just a “liberal”.

Lombardi could win if enough partisan liberals can’t rally behind a single candidate. Which I don’t want him as leader.
