My fiancée has learned the signs of my sleep paralysis episodes. She’ll notice my body I’m twitching and it’ll wake her up. Sometimes I can even manage to get some grunts out.

Originally she would wake up and kind of gently comfort me, and try to wake me up. Lately, she doesn’t even wake up and she just kinda turns in her sleep and whacks me in the face like she’s hitting the snooze button. It’s… admittedly been very effective.

I haven’t invested too much time into it, but you should try Pokete! It’s Pokemon, but with ASCII visuals on a terminal window :)

I guess I don’t know enough European history. Which means that when I say “that makes a lot of sense. You have convinced me” it means very very little and you should not feel like you have won any debate.

Just kidding. The Bipp Republic supports your methods.

I’m currently watching The Office Superfan Episodes (would recommend, if you haven’t. They add a lot of new scenes and jokes that have cracked me the hell up) and I feel like I am progressively moving the “jumped the shark” line up every time I rewatch the show.

At one point I thought it was around the time Andy got on the boat. Then around when Robert California came around. Then, when Michael left. Now I’m kinda feeling like the show has taken a significant change in tone at the point when the original corporate office is bought and cleaned out by Sabre. That’s not to say that there aren’t good episodes forward from here, but I literally feel like I’m not starting to watch the show “waiting for it to end”

Hey, Ludrol. “A bip a shap a slip a tap a eyshioni” [I am from the year 4877 and I speak Bippy, a language of the Bipp Republic of Darkness a country that won’t exist for another thousand years.

But they almost always need to show them playing a shooter because then they get to talk about how hard they are killing everybody while doing their best impression of what their 13 year old nefew talks about on Fortnite or COD or whatever, but as a 30 year old actor. Lol

The distance between the first line in a hopscotch game and where I would put the top line of the [4, 5] block.

I own the book! It’s in the backlog ^-

I’m currently working my way through the Dune series. I’m nearing the end of book 3 and then I’m going to take a break from Dune to read a few other books. Hail Mary may have to be next up

Fucking love this book. Funniest thing I’ve ever read, consistently, from cover to cover

Except that they are talking explicitly about games like Rollercoaster Tycoon and Doom. Full colored games with animations, soundtracks, the whole thing (and aged pretty well too, imo)

That Dead or Alive beach game

It’s all about girls!

Even as a guy, I love the new Hello Kitty game.

My significant other loves it even more. Lmao

Hello Kitty Island Adventure is similar to a very relaxed cross between Animal Crossing and Breath of the Wild. There are elements that depend on time passing in the real world such as socializing, holidays, and getting certain resources, and there are also a lot of very funny and cute storylines featuring all the Sanrio characters. You don’t need to be initiated into them to have a nice time (I sure wasn’t).

There’s no combat, but there are many other systems and areas to unlock that make the game feel deeper than it originally looks.

It also has multiplayer, if that’s something you’d use!

Love music that contains storytelling

Any sort of sequel to the Tribes series. Talk about a franchise that had, at one point, a massive amount of potential that was completely squandered!

It has momentum (the franchise, not just the gameplay mechanic. Lol) and the visuals and world lended itself to be turned into something with great storytelling of they really wanted to make it into a story as well. Plus, it was fun a hell!

Ascend is technically still online, but any sequel that gets “announced” every one in a while is a lost cause from the start

I never played that game, but I was about to… I literally installed it, but didn’t play it, and it got canceled and shut down very shortly after. (I was a bit out of the loop, I guess)

I still have it late in my Steam library, so I think about it a decent bit

I can do this as well. Pretty easily too. It feels like I can pick a direction to look in and then I just look behind the thing my vision is centered at. If I go a bit slow, I can look around the room and keep my vision somewhat blurry

Idk your wife, but I would feel like that’s a very intimate connection to share that you have with her. I could see it going a number of ways, of course. But what’s kept you from sharing with her, overall? If you don’t mind me asking

I remember I was able to hear them as a kid. It’s been a while since I’ve interacted with one, so who knows if it’s even likely that i still have that acuteness of hearing, but I do remember it. Some good amount of years ago I found a crt monitor and turned it on and the dimming and slightly-static clicking sounds sent me back

Fits the archetype well. Medusa is a story often interpreted as one of defuse assault of a person on the lower end of a power discrepancy. She probably hated men and wanted to be by herself in the end

Would have been annoyed in this situation.

Also, she was hot enough to make Athens jealous. The Greek pantheon was vain as absolute Tartarus, but that has to mean something

As a Puerto Rican, I am very upset about all the fascism taking place in our federal government
