I think they often forget that King Herod tried to have Him killed by murdering every child two years old and younger in Bethlehem and the surrouding area.

Jesus started his life as a refugee whose king wanted him dead.

Dick Van Dyke is 100.

Couldn't have happened to a better person. I'm so glad that he's still around.
To Dick Van Dyke: I send the warmest of birthday wishes. Happy 100!! You and my father Colby Carter went to high school together in Danville IL!! I'm afraid this is the closest thing I have to a picture of us together, but it will have to do. ❤️

I don't have a ton of follwers, but for those of you who are not American...

Don't come here.

We need to sort out shit out. I don't know if it's even possible. I'm going to do my best, but the history student in me doesn't like our odds.

Alright, one more game, and this one falls into the "fantastic writing" category: Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines.

There's a reason this game shows on practically every "Greatest RPG" list despite its many, many flaws. It's a genuinely compelling story with lots of twists, turns, and branches.

I really want to gush about Katawa Shoujo for a bit, too. It's a VN, but for the low, low price of "free", it's worth checking out.

It's shocking that something this heartwarming and sweet was born from 4chan of all places. It'll make you laugh, it'll make you cry, and everything in between.

1: Don't wake the Daemonhost.

2: Don't pick up the fucking ammo/healing boxes if you're not going to use them.

3: Make the area safe before you rez me or anyone else.

4: Please play the objectives. I hate being the only one resetting syncronisitors.

Pinkwater just seems like a really on-the-nose name for a security agency.
Imagine a Pinkwater Security recruiter contacted you and invited you to work aboard Pinkwater 4 station. Would you agree? And if yes, what would you take with you to live and work in space?

I’ll save you a click:

The Atlantic is trending because they put out an article saying that it’s “anti-worker” to fire the white woman at Cinnabon who screamed slurs at Somali customers and yelled at them to “suck it”.

Intravenous II has an incredible soundtrack, but it would be remiss of me not to also bring up another of my favorite game soundtracks: Crypt of the Necrodancer.

While I enjoyed the game itself (until I tried to beat it with Aria, at least), this game has a fuckin' banging soundtrack.

I also do want to bring up some honorable mentions that I didn't get to plug, starting with Starsector. It was between this and DA2 for my underrated game, and I really want to see more people play Mount & Blade IN SPACE!!!

The website looks like it should give you malware, but it's legit.

Whew! Day 30, everyone; we made it to the end.

If you ask me about my GOAT every day over a week, I'll probably give you seven different answers.

But for today? Bloodborne.

If you know, you know. If not, go get some PlayStation hardware and play it. But be warned: it's not for the faint of heart.

Like, it's a net gain. You no longer have to put into your employer's healthcare, you don't have to pay for your own plan, and your taxes aren't going to increase by as much as your old plan's cost.

Governments may be incompetent, but they're not incentivized to cut corners and costs.
Now we see the filthy rich Mark Cuban appear. He stands to lose profit from his drug business and investments so he's pulling out all the Republican propaganda.

Socialized Medicine works everywhere else.

Yeah, taxes go up, but your insurance payments go down, and everyone is covered.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.

What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?

Who in the USA gov runs the program?

R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

Day 29!

I love Stardew Valley and think it's a better "game" at the moment, but Fields of Mistria just has a much better cast of characters. It's not done yet and won't be until next year, so it still feels like it's missing content.

But the characters run laps around SDV's.

One of these days, I'm gonna sit down and power my way through Original Sin 2.

It never really managed to suck me in like BG3, and I'm not sure why.

I mean, it works pretty well for 40K.
BORING: Assigning "levels of canon" to Star Wars media.

NOT BORING: Construing all Star Wars media as variously motivated propaganda which actually exists in some notional Star Wars universe, often only tenuously related to real events, and loudly speculating about what "really happened".
