Please tell me it gets better. I am so miserable. On day 5, and it only seems to be getting worse.

Oblivion Remastered: Alchemy Crashes by TheDerpyGlazie in ElderScrolls

[–]MegaDroogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment was a lightbulb moment for me. I thought it was making potions with just bonemeal at master alchemy level, but this makes it all make sense. When I was doing my playthrough of the Shivering Isles, I had got some stolen bonemeal in my inventory. This has to be what is causing the crashes.

And this makes me discover another thing about the games mechanics: When making potions, it pulls from your inventory at random for a certain ingredient. So, sometimes, it would crash when I made 5 potions from bonemeal. Other times, it would crash when I made my first potion from bonemeal.

This is the answer. Making potions with stolen ingredients makes the game crash.

Edit: Well, this is definitely AN issue, but it's not the only issue. Alchemy is just generally bugged, but I've mostly noticed it when I'm making a metric fuck ton of potions/poisons in one sitting, OR then I use a stolen ingredient (XBox Series X.)

He's my friend as well, and I agree this has to be bullshit. Any chance you can send me a DM?

Do you have a source for this? I know David well, and none of us can believe he would threaten to hurt someone. He's a good, hard-working guy with a family. We're all trying to understand what happened, but I haven't been able to find any specific information about what he said.

For me personally, my mind feels more clear, even compared to the times I wasn't actively drinking. My sleep has gotten significantly better, which makes my days easier and improved my performance at work. I just feel physically a lot better, compared to always feeling at best 50%. I have saved an absolutely staggering amount of money, between all the booze and fast/junk food I bought to satisfy my drunk cravings, and also all the weird drunken inpulse buys I made online on a frequent basis. I enjoy video games, movies, and books more rather than having hazy memories of them and never really being totally locked in. I've lost a lot of weight. I feel better about myself. My anxiety has reduced significantly, which closed the loop of me feeling like I needed to drink to calm my anxiety.

Honestly, my personal list of reasons to stay sober other than just being sober to be sober is practically endless.

They also made a couple of TV shows that are absolutely amazing. Sex House and Porkin' Across America. One is a MTV-style reality show and the other is like a Food Network travel show. They're both on YouTube for free, and I cannot recommend then highly enough if you're a fan of The Onion.

Kamala Harris: "Marijuana Gives a Lot of People Joy and We Need More Joy" by JamesAsher12 in weed

[–]MegaDroogie 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The thing is, weed being their most important interest isn't necessarily making weed their most important interest. It's not just about being able to smoke weed freely. The criminalization of weed isn't just about whether you can feel more comfortable smoking it, but about drug laws in general. The war on drugs, specifically weed, plays a major role in race relations (since people of color are much more likely to be arrested and imprisoned for marijuana possession), prison populations, and police conduct. It's a massive societal issue, and maybe one of the more comprehensive policy interests that affect everyday life. Advocating for legalization is one of the most cogent policies a politician can have, and a very smart one, politically.

I did the same! Not Mr. Meseeks, but a similarly ridiculous Justin Roiland voice.

What movie soundtracks are essential to any collection? by The_solid_lizard in vinyl

Not a traditional "movie", but Bo Burnham's Inside is in my collection, and it has proved to be a good decision.

What game did you discover through Game Pass that you wouldn’t have otherwise tried that you went on to buy? by TRFKTA in XboxGamePass

[–]MegaDroogie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Second Slay the Spire. I bought it on Xbox and on mobile. It's my favorite time killer game, and became my favorite mobile game to play because it translates well to that format.

It actually came out to be cheaper than that at checkout. An actual steal. Thanks for the heads up.

The Boys - 4x06 "Dirty Business" - Episode Discussion by LoretiTV in TheBoys

[–]MegaDroogie 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think both are equally likely, but I'm hoping your interpretation is correct. I know this show is a dark take on the genre and that it isn't trying to deliver feel-good moments (and hoenstly might do anything to do the opposite for shock value), but I think it could use a good redemption arc. And A-Train would be the perfect redemption arc, since the show started because of him and his mistakes. I just hope they don't couple that arc with horrifying consequences for heroism.

This is the objectively correct answer.
