bandcamp.com is a good place to buy music and download digital copies to keep forever.

If you are patient and wait until a "Bandcamp Friday" then Bandcamp waives their cut of the revenue share for that day and the artist/label/whatever gets 100% of the money!

I complained about the lack of GBA and Pokémon games in my response.

I told them I blame Gamefreak for the Pokemon games not being there though.

I did HIIT for a while. It is short, intense, and the workouts change frequently. Each workout is like 90 seconds tops and you do a bunch for like 15 minutes.

Having a dog is awesome because you can just hang out and talk to “yourself” in your back yard and everyone looks over and goes “oh dog, got it ”

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

As an example: WA state is a very liberal state (in comparison to others). Pretty sure we were the only full state to go *more blue* in the 2024 election.

That being said we have a huge, huge population of hunters. Hunters typically use guns. Lots of guns in WA, a very blue state.
