Yes! You’ll see that other parts of the house look dirty and just dust a little, put a few things away, organize…
It’s surprisingly effective to have a little robot buddy!

Oh hell yes.
I work from home, in the basement. Getting a roomba meant I didn’t have to vacuum, but I did have to pick stuff up off the floor.
So now one 15 minute break is tidying and starting the vacuum. The next is cleaning the vacuum out and organizing dishes, while a third is doing the dishes and sometimes minor dinner prep.
My wife gets to come home to a clean house and I get to do it all on the clock so it’s done when I’m done with work. Total life changer.
You can make stupid outrage news anywhere, out of any number of issues. It does not escalate to world news.
This shit is not world fucking news.
It still wouldn’t be WORLD NEWS.
Anything with George Guidall.
He has a deep, resonant voice. I don’t know how else to describe it, but it’s very comforting.
He has done probably hundreds of audiobooks but one series I remember him doing was The Cat Who… line of mysteries. Very lightweight but fun books.
I was on a MUD (old multi-player internet text rpg) called Three Kingdoms when Princess Diana died. Over a hundred people online at the time from all over the world.
It was a huge shock for everyone, followed by a strange communal grieving for a well-known and liked international figure.
I totally get where you’re coming from but wanted to put the counterpoint, as obvious as it was.
She was caring for those who nobody else could for at that time, and to generally good effect day to day.
I’ve worked in group homes and know of the challenges you face in serving those who aren’t all that stable.
Just would never have advocated for that solution for anyone really. All that is said with historical knowledge and such.
Yours was a good post.
She was trying her best with that she had and knew at the time, even if she overreacted in the end, to terrible effect.
And forced a sane but disruptive man through a disabling procedure?
No. She went way the hell too far so she could protect her little kingdom and stay in power. She was not concerned with helping her charges improve their lot in life.
I do block them, but I will still call it out when I see it.
Go the fuck away, fascist.
Yes, but the warning was included in the subject. Also there’s no more obvious twist than that.
Knights of the Old Republic.
I’d heard for many years how amazing they were, so I finally tried them.
Each game has a major plot twist. Both are obvious enough but if you google anything the spoiler in the first game is ruined.
The one in the second I was assured was a better game but apparently only if you download the unofficial patch that finishes the game, and it still can’t save the game from the obvious fucking fact you’ve been carrying around the BBEG since the goddamned beginning while everyone tried to pretend otherwise.
People want remakes of these games primarily for nostalgia, and they do not hold up.
And what’s the word in German that means everything you just wrote?
I’ve done a lot of self-forgiveness in recent years, so a lot of the simpler and sillier ones I don’t think of as embarrassing anymore.
Could be the time I flipped a guy off after he cut me off and I missed a light. He saw me in his mirror and started freaking out and swerving, almost hit a curb.
I didn’t mean to ruin his day. Just letting off steam.
Either that or the time I drove on the shoulder to avoid a car stopped in the middle of the road. When I merged back she had started to move and we collided. Totally my fault.
I only realized later that due to her age, location, and stickers on her car from a nearby Catholic University that I’d probably hit a nun.
I will have to try and use it. I am running Curse of Strahd now so cursed money would be spectacular!
You are older than me, I suppose. I was playing it at 11 years old or so. My first CRPG, although my dad had run a D&D game for the family a few years prior so I had a reference point.
I remember my cousin telling us about the Creeping Coins and my imagination went wild, assuming you could loot them and they’d attack you later from your inventory.
Nope. Just normal randomly spawning encounter.
It meant my Dad never played Scrabble with my mom ever again, that’s what it meant.
Across two Triple Word tiles, no less.
I appreciate you trying to attribute the artist. That’s a good instinct to have, glad to see it in practice!
Love that skit. “Ocean in the Desert”.
