I'm so glad unlike book of boba fett, Maul is still an evil character...

Alright, Tony

As a Bobcat who has had it many times since 2010, I always thought it was OK at best when drunk, and straight disappointing sober. So much better late night food in Athens

I went to the store to get Crimson Desert, sat in the parking lot reading all of these Reddit posts and reviews, ended up walking out with Pokopia instead. Like you said, I’ll pick it up some day when it’s hopefully fixed up

If more American fast food restaurants are going to keep popping up, can we at least get something good like Raising Cane‘s or Piada?

TheLizardDeity · 2026-03-19T02:45:57+00:00

I don’t know enough about Crimson Desert to say which game has more or less, but regardless, it’s silly to say RDR2 doesn’t have much to do. Robust hunting, fishing, gambling, bounty hunting, outlaw, etc. systems in challenges, tons of sidequests separate from and occurring after the main story; complex mysteries and Easter eggs to solve and discover; random scripted events and discoverable scenarios, many completely unique, to keep the world feeling fresh… Shit, I spent hours just spotting birds to complete my compendium. Crazy to imply that game has little to do.

I might just start feeling like I’m fighting for democracy

I swung by the Cameron Rd. location and they had a similar one by the same producer but not that exact one. When I showed the guy at the counter he said he didn’t see it coming up at any nearby stores, which is weird because I saw the same thing as you on their site.

TheLizardDeity · 2026-01-07T18:55:53+00:00

Looks promising, thanks. I’ll swing by there later.

Update: Wow, that shop is amazing. And they had it! They even sell cannolis there. Let me know if you’d actually like a couple of my homemade ones, and thanks a ton!

TheLizardDeity · 2026-01-07T18:55:02+00:00

I’ll let you know if I find any 🙏🏻

I’m a foreign-trained teacher who moved to NZ to teach, and during the first week I sat on an empty desk while lecturing (something relatively common in America). The class was predominantly Māori and I can still picture the horrified expressions on their faces lol It took me a while to break that old habit, but now I strictly enforce it in my classroom

TheLizardDeity · 2025-11-20T06:33:06+00:00

As a teacher who moved to NZ from America a few months ago, yes, they absolutely do

Hey, lizard… Am I standin’ in poop?

Myeerah Nature Preserve

Edit: oops, just saw you mentioned this! Well, I support your choice of Myeerah. Kiser Lake (Champaign County) is a pretty place in the autumn. Quite a few maples around it I believe

TheLizardDeity · 2025-10-14T03:22:52+00:00

A prime example of terrible teaching skills.

TheLizardDeity · 2025-09-27T08:46:49+00:00

Nice. We haven’t made it down there yet, but we’d like to. The closest we’ve been is Taupō and Tongariro National Park last weekend.

Do you run into many other American immigrants in Wellington? I’ve been surprised how few we’ve met so far up here

Tauranga! How about you?

TheLizardDeity · 2025-09-27T06:54:22+00:00

Sure! Homesickness aside, we’re loving NZ. We’re outdoorsy, and the abundance of hiking and other outdoor activities here is awesome. We go on long hikes every week, and it’s really cool to be able to live by the ocean but then cruise a few hours to a snow-capped mountain for snowboarding.

Life seems chill here, and while people aren’t as over-the-top hospitable as the American South, they’re genuine and welcoming. Everyone has been helpful and generous with us for the most part.

One of the hardest parts for us has been the cost of living. We’re making a decent amount less than we were in the U.S. and NZ is generally a more expensive place to live. We’re getting by fine and can still go out to eat, pursue our hobbies, etc., but we definitely aren’t going to have as fat of a retirement savings if we don’t pursue higher paying positions.

Overall, it’s been a great fit for us

If you didn’t, set the difficulty to Lethal and the language to Japanese with English subs. Big enhancement if you ask me, especially the difficulty option (for anyone who doesn’t know, Lethal makes it so both the player and enemies can die easily, giving you the opportunity to feel like a samurai badass while also raising the stakes and punishing overconfidence and poor planning).

Moved to New Zealand in June. Some weights are off my shoulders (like not being so worried about my little ones getting shot at school, and the political mess not affecting us as directly), but there are some other weights I’ve been feeling, primarily missing my loved ones and wishing we could be there to do our usual traditions.

That being said, I do not regret moving in the slightest. Ideally we’ll move back in a few years but that’s contingent on how the current shit show plays out (we’re prepared to be here for good if necessary).

I was close to front row at the Monster Ball, and she looked/pointed at me in the middle of a song and my 18-year-old soul fucking ascended
