Doesn’t she look tired?

Thing is, I know she knows exactly what she is saying. The context is correct, she knows what the words mean, she just didn’t grow up around people who spoke that wide a vocabulary, and while working in blue collar trades, she was looked down on for all them fancy college words.

She can swear with the best pipe fitters, well, because she was a union pipe fitter.

Language is so fluid, people who get too hung up on syntax and not the substance really annoy me.

When I was in the military, one of the smartest people I knew was from the bayou of Louisiana. To me, a yank, he sounded like a complete idiot, and in fact I often couldn’t understand him when we first met. Once I was able to look past his mode of speech, and actually listen to him, I realised what an ignorant fuck I was being.

This is 100% my girlfriend, and I take great pleasure in never correcting her, I find it charming.

TIL that both Voyager craft are still operating, simply amazing.

Best known for his work as the poet in episode 2 of Lexx.

Subnatica. Every element of this game just fits together perfectly to create an atmosphere of isolated desperate survival.

No, haven’t seen it, but will check it out.

So, the first 30 minutes go like this. Find the stuff to make and craft the knife, scanner, fins, air tanks, and building tool.

You can eat kelp and make bleach>water w salt and coral to stay alive, though it’s a LOT of kelp.

Then head straight to southern island to scan the multipurpose room, indoor and outdoor grow beds, and grab lantern fruit and marble mellons.

You can then build a base and grow all the food you will ever need. I stock up on a ton of bleach and make water as needed, though the food also restores some hydration.

I usually have this done before the Aurora explodes.

Once you have the cyclops you can plant in there as well. Three lantern fruit trees per base is all the food you will need in the game, and marble melons have a lot of water.

The only thing you miss out on really is the emergency air bladder, as that requires a fish. To make up for it I carry a second air tank when diving deep or exploring wrecks. I also build outdoor grow beds w brain corals in strategic places as emergency air supplies.

Honestly, I started it as a lark, and found it so enjoyable because I never get distracted chasing down and catching fish.

It’s one of those I downloaded, played 10 minutes of, and then got distracted by something else. I’ve done a good job avoiding spoilers, I’ll check it out next.

Just finished my first permadeath vegan play through (never caught a single fish, though I admit I ran over a few hundred).

I’m not any good at deck building games, but my girlfriend is pretty close to platinuming it on PS4 and I have to say, that game just gets weirder and weirder.

I hit a wall at trig. Far as I got in math, and I’ve been a programmer for over half my career.

Have always wanted to go back and learn trig and calc, but have never had the chance. Probably at this point would do better just to sit down w a text book and teach myself.

Mass effect LE, first time playing as a renegade and absolutely loving it.

Never played as a biotic before either so it really does feel new. Just started ME3 last night after one hell of a suicide mission.

Killing 300,000 Batarins with an asteroid

It’s real, and you owe it to yourself to watch it.

Playing it now for the first time and just recently did that, and the main story priest mission, two of the more memorable missions I’ve done in a long time and has totally sold me on this game.

The mechanics are different, and may put people off, but once you settle into it I think the controls and various game mechanics are really good.

The Mongols showed up and ruined everything.
