Greatly depends on where you live. The housing market is terrible right now though, but that might be changing due to the moratorium on evictions ending as there are likely going to be a lot of empty properties soon.

my parents are 61 and 56. it's so weird. I'm going to be taking care of them soon. My mom wants to retire soon with her bf, and my dad is getting old already... but it's weird because my dad lives in another country. he has his family there but I don't know who is going to take care of him. in fact my parents never even mention this stuff to me, I imagine they think I'm not responsible or mature enough to engage with it; my sister probably deals with some of it even though she's younger than me. so i don't know if I'm just kind of absolved of responsibility at this point or they're going to dump it on me when it happens. even outside of inheritance, i don't want to plan a funeral or manage something like one of my parents having cancer (who does), but of course i am willing to if i have to. it's just weird they NEVER mention this stuff to me and i'm 30.


I'm in my 40s & only because of my dad's failing health has my mom started talking about this stuff with me. People don't like to dwell on their own mortality and will put things off until it's too late unless there's a shock to the system.

All I can say is, be careful; I did.

Three years after my dad died, my mother was diagnosed with vascular dementia. It's gradual, it's insidious, it kills you in the end but only after it's robbed you of every shred of dignity and the memories that make you who you are. I tried to take on the whole burden of her care for as long as I could (me: only child; she: no reliable support network among family, friends or neighbours) even though I lived 150 miles away and my wife was ill with multiple sclerosis.

The only way I could blunt life's jagged edges was by drinking. It didn't stop after she died. Not for a long time, at any rate.


I'm really sorry to hear that.

Thankfully, I somehow didn't inherit the alcoholism that runs in both sides of my family as I've never been more than a social drinker. But the last few months it has been tempting to start doing something to get my mind off everything.

Been there, done that, then went through the same thing with my mother. It starts to eat into your own life savings, not only your parents'.


Yeah, it sucks. I've only been working part time this year because I've been having to deal with my dad's crap for the last several months on a daily basis. I'm almost surprised I haven't started drinking heavily after all the stress.

By the time your parents actually die, likely after numerous hospital stays racking up lots of medical debt? Or even worse, if hey have to go to a nursing home for the last few years of their lives? Probably nothing if we're playing the percentages here.

I'm going through such a thing this year with my father's failing health, having to write checks for his bills & watching his life savings dwindle.

Seems like a popular character. He was always one of the first to be safe in this contest, if I'm not mistaken. Really thought he would be a finalist, if not the winner.


He's pretty much my favorite videogame character, so I nominate him for everything that he qualifies for, lol.

Of the potential next topics, I like the city idea, but I'm wondering how we would handle real world cities-- like New York shows up in probably thousands of videogames.

The wards were deactivated because the Wardens wanted to free Corypheus. Janeka wanted to try to bind him using blood magic, while Larius wanted to take advantage of his weakened state to kill him.

Janeka is just clearly an idiot, and Larius reminds me too much of Gollum. He at least has the right idea, though. I'm not sure he could have been expected to know what Corypheus was capable of doing.


All true, but sadly it shows how people around Corypheus are very prone to picking up the idiot ball-- like every single powerful group in DAI.

Because children in the 90s have never tried to pick up an instrument and write a piece of music in their life. These kids dont hear notes, they listen to lyrics. All popular music appeals to the lowest common denominator, and that denominator is simple percussive beats, inoffensive instrumentation, simple melodies, simple bass lines.

It is the same with any other form of media. A person new to anime will watch Pokmon and death note, a person new to scifi will think highly of the new star wars series, a person who grew up eating shitty food will think McDonald's and fast food tastes good, a person who barely rides bikes will think their hybrid is satisfactory


Good take for a grumpy old man. I heartily approve.
