I played both that and the first one. They were both pretty janky games with bad plots, but a lot of fun to play.

Eww fish

Well, I did say you were usually right.
Because this is a bad take here, fish are delicious and nutritious.

I should get one. My girlfriend even noted that it seemed ergonomically conducive to cuddling.

To be fair that's probably not as much money as they're sending to Ukraine

It's probably close.

Beats cold McDonald's, but I'm not sure McCarthy understands the hogs.

I will kindly ask you to stop, like I did 46 times already.

"I say, Jeffrey is trying to eat me again."
"Isn't this the 46th time?
"Verily, 'tis."
"You would think he would have figured it out by now."

I love how completely unbothered the capybara are.

Or the company being plain wasteful.

The amount of perfectly good product thrown out could help a 3rd country if not the entirety of the continent of Africa.

On December 24th, me and my amazing enby coworker pulled losses for the Bakery department: because we were closed on Christmas, we were pulling two entire days worth of losses, literally thousands of dollars worth of product that was perfectly good.

But, since it was the holiday week and no one from a local shelter would be coming by in the morning to pick up said losses, it all went into the dumpster. We weren't even allowed to offer it to team members. Just a fucking insane amount of waste. And Bakery is a relatively small department!

She threw sugar at the customer before the brawl broke out

Anything like that is separation bait. The customer service worker must always be a perfect saint; the customer, on the other hand, has practically free license to verbally abuse us. And that takes a toll on anyone.

I don't fault her for slipping: I've done it too, we're only human. If not for what came next, that would have likely gone unnoticed.

Their policy sucks and I'm glad they're trying to do something better.

Dammit gunpla, now you made me get one as well!

I was totally innocent I tell you.

....a trans pride Blhaj?

She was fired and blacklisted by the company, FYI.

I got called baberooni last night.
Via text, because I'm not in the clear, but her appointment was this morning.

I'm still alive, so that's one victory right there

I'm glad Amber. Just one day at a time!

She usually is, but also shes a trans woman so people get angry about it.

Nurses deserve better pay, health insurance, and treatment altogether. Going on strike is the only way to get management to listen.

This. We call them heroes, but to the hospital execs thats just an excuse not to pay them what they deserve.

Yep, done drag a couple times. I hate em, terribly uncomfortable. Don't like makeup either, very itchy, have to will myself not to touch my face. Dunno how folks wear both every day.

Bras really aren't bad at all as long they're properly sized.

A bra that's too tight is awful though.

Plus, you know, if your tits are big enough, they tend to do a lot of moving around when you move, which is a total bitch if you're, say...on an elliptical at the gym. It's not just a people stare disapprovingly thing, it's also an "Owww, this hurts" thing.

Can't go to the gender store without cracking a few eggs.

Yeah, never buy eggs from the gender store, they always end up cracking.

Meghan will still be blamed for all of this by the UK press. Yes even the Nazi costume and the Taliban he killed.

Real Islamophobic of her to kill brave mujahadeen in Afghanistan.

In any situation where The Bail Project shouldn't bail someone out, shouldn't the court system also not set bail for them?

Shh, don't question the system!

Was STAB a thing in RBY I can't remember

Of course it was.

I once bought a $100 bottle of sake for my birthday.
It was pretty great, but its not something I would do regularly even if I could afford it.

This shit wouldn't be happening if trans people's lived experiences actually mattered to cis society.

I wear nice bras.
Or, at least, my girlfriend thinks my bras are nice.

Not long before they ban it outright.

Also, my favorite examples of actually dumb movepool BS is that Kabutops, Omastar, and Aerodactyl cannot learn Rock Slide in RBY.

Rock Slide is available via TM, so it's not even just learn lists being shit, they went out of their way to not give them a Rock move.

It's worth mentioning that you and your boss were much more likely to be of similar socio-economic class back then.

Its special attack is abysmal, so youre really not missing out on anything.

Probably about 7-8, which is better than it's been since childhood.

Working on getting into a MSW program, so I can better aid and advocate for my community.

And so I can build a life for myself, hopefully with my girlfriend.

I'm sorry to hear about your mom!

....also I'm terrified of childbirth.

I've never felt this vulnerable ever.

I would be terrified in your position too!

And my Mom is hanging in there. It's not hitting her too bad - she was all up to date on boosters. And I remain COVID-free, at least for the moment. Thank you for your concern Amber.

The current form of football is gonna be one of those things people look back on in 100 years and just be confused why the heck we did that to ourselves. Like treating syphillis with mercury. The narrative has already changed so much in the last ten years.

Right? I love the sport, always have, but its basically a blood sport. Itll mess up your body, mind, or both, and you wont know to what extent it will until you do. Maybe you get lucky.maybe you dont.

I'm not sure what happened, did the guy get hit in the chest and collapsed on the spot?

Either way, from what I've seen on Facebook it sounds like he was on the ground for awhile before getting taken straight to the gospel and he's been intubated. If he survives this and recovers he still might need to retire just to be sure he won't end up dying from any future accident. I hope he gets better. And I hope that his toy drive continues to have donations pouring in over the next few days.

My understanding is that he was hit in the chest while tackling Bengals WR Tee Higgins (I really hope he's okay too. I can't imagine how he must feel right now). He got up and began walking, but quickly stumbled and fell backward, seemingly motionless. Medical staff rushed the field, long commercial break. My feed happened to be stuttering when that happened: the first thing I saw was the ambulance on the field, with players gathered around Hamlin. There were many long commercial breaks - at some point Joe Buck mentioned Hamlin had been receiving CPR for nine minutes. It was quite some time before the ambulance left the field - by the end, both teams were on the field, kneeling, praying, crying, looking on in shock, disbelief, and obvious distress. The ambulance left, lingered just long enough so that Hamlin's mom could get on. He was then taken to the hospital, where he remains in critical condition. It doesn't seem he has recovered consciousness.

The players remained in shock, and there was confusion about what should be done - apparently the officials may have told the players to warm up to prepare to resume play (whether this was an official ruling or simply them just following what rules are in place is unclear), but both teams ultimately retreated to their respective locker rooms. The game was postponed soon afterwards. Fans of both teams have gathered outside the hospital.

Yeah, it's important to remember games made during the era of CRT TVs were made with the CRT's scan-lines in mind, so they actually look worse without them.

Protip: Anyone using this as an excuse to post anti-vax bullshit is likely to get heavily moderated for their level of fucking bullshit ignorance. Go fuck off.

Thanks. It's bad enough to see that shit on Twitter.

Really relieved theyre not going to play the game right now. I just hope Damar Hamlin will be okay.

I got violet.

Not so much of a problem for me, either. Hehehehe...

Ugh, my Mom has COVID (huge problem given I live with her) and my girlfriend's health has been worsening: she's certain it's related to a mass in her side, believed to be a mass of adhesions. Thankfully, her long-awaited appointment with this gastroneurologist dude is Friday, so hopefully that sets her on the path to better answers and (some) recovery. There seems to be more wrong with her than just MCAS.

I hate pants

I want kilts to be acceptable and easily purchasable from cheap clothing stores

Just buy skirts dude, I promise they don't bite.

It's in part because bright colors are associated with femininity, and "feminine" expression from men is very much looked down upon in our society, in part because femininity itself is seen as lesser. It's why people hate trans women so much, but it's also why men's fashion is boring - cram yourselves into your tiny box of washed-out or dark colors like a real man and "enjoy" it.

Or tell them to go fuck themselves and dress as you please. That takes a lot of guts, of course.

The voice actor for Doctor Chakwas is one of the best performances in the game.

Dr. Chakwas is a great character and a testament to their attention to detail.

I've been going this way so far. Can't help but feel like after 25 years of presenting as male, I kinda want to go hard in the other direction

Just experiment, and have fun with it! My friend has been a femme enby for years and years, and they told they went three like 3-4 different phases before settling on a comfy, tomboyish vibe. But some remnants of their old directions remain too!
And I hope they're wearing a lot of leggings, these days....

As for me, my girlfriend describes my style as colorful cottagecore. I'm getting better with makeup.
