Canadian here.

I am not looking forward to this very much. If Trump gets into power, our local politicians are going to crank it into overdrive. They already pander to that demographic, so it’s just going to get worse. Not nearly as bad as in America, but nobody wants to live under bad leadership and have their safety taken from them.

I don’t really understand how we got to this point. But it just seems like all these grifters came out from the woodwork and are just being crazy in plain sight with no consequences now.

I’m sure they were always there, but I don’t feel like it was nearly as bad as it has been. Maybe it’s just recency bias clouding my memory, but like… dang.

I would love to see some sort of ranked ballot voting or other method of voting come into place for every democracy. No vote should go to waste because of having to pick between the lesser of two crappy choices.

It annoys me that we can understand this issue, but yet the people in power just don’t seem to get it? Maybe they just don’t care. It kinda feels like it’s a game to them. Will high-ranking democrats really feel the pain from losing? I feel like people with money always seem to not be burdened nearly as much.

Thank you! I like it too haha. The battle network games are awesome

This made my morning :3

Edit: not a fan of Frank’s new look, though. He looks…different.

Sorry for the late reply! This is an incredibly extensive list, thank you so much! I’ll have to give the game another go at some point here. It seems super charming, so maybe if I go into it with this added knowledge, I’ll be able to get my bearings. Have you tried the new game that just released a while back? I think it was called my time at Sandrock?

I am begrudgingly continuing my NG+ run of elden ring today so that I can play the DLC on Friday. It’s my own fault because I started NG+ thinking I would get through it. But after an almost 200 hour first playthrough, I was done and put it down.

I am not a big fan of how the DLC requires you to get further into the game to play it. But that minor gripe aside, I am quite interested to see where they take us in the DLC. I’m thinking I’ll need to fight my way to be able to respec again and I might go into the game as a spellcaster once more. Not quite sure just yet, but thinking about the possibilities is getting me a bit hyped haha

This was an insightful read. Thanks for sharing!

The first time I tried my time at Portia, I found building stuff took forever. I was trying to build a bridge(iirc?) And I felt like it was just going to be a lot of waiting. Was I playing it wrong?

Stardew Valley is the game that keeps on giving. At this point, I wish there was just more. More towns to visit, more activities, more everything.

The only thing that does kind of suck is that after year 1 I feel like I’ve kind of mastered whatever I was attempting to do. I’ve heard some people say after year 1 is where they enjoy the game the most, but idk I feel like by that point I’m making more money than I need and the only thing left to do is collect stuff or attempt the skull cavern.

But man. That first year is a blast. I’ve been thinking I should try out more mods or possibly a jojamart run at some point

Just trying to get the NRA back on their side prior to election

Honestly, I have no idea how valid/effective the Chinese vaccine is. But stuff like this is bad for everyone, not just the people they were targeting. Short sighted plan, in my opinion.

Even more disturbing if it caused extra deaths.

You’re very welcome, I’m glad! We definitely can get through this. :)

:3 cool beans, well I’m glad then! Thanks for taking a look at my little corner of the internet

This is it here. Please keep your expectations low lol

It’s not amazing by any means. I’m basically mostly just messing around with streams and shorts recently as they’re much faster to make.

(I hope this doesn’t come off a spammy as I mention my channel from time to time. It’s basically just a little hobby right now. My goal is to just currently keep improving. My childish dream would be to eventually just be able to live off of it and just be able to bring together a cool community of people. But I’m not holding my breath haha.)

I’m sooooo close to getting a week off work. Just trying to hang in there. It’s funny how a persons focus wavers when they know a break is coming.

I have been making some small progress with my youtube/livestream channel. I’m up to 54 subscribers, which feels like I’ve moved at a snails pace since September. But I’m picking up some steam, in the past while so that’s super cool. I think my videos are bad lol but given the amount of time I can actually work on stuff during the week, I think I’m actually doing alright. I’m hoping that eventually, I’m able to find a solid direction of where I want to take my videos. But for now I just want to make stuff that is fun/ that can make people happy in even just a small way

I feel the same about my own issues and troubles. Just wana stop by and tell you that your issues are valid. Even though there’s always bigger fish out there. Your issues and feelings are valid and sometimes life is just unfair and fucking hard.

I hope that this can help even a little bit. I try to tell myself this sometimes, but I find it hard to take it to heart unless I hear it from someone else. Hang in there! I hope your week shapes up and gets better

Maaaan I wish I could go to open sauce! Enjoy! That’s going to be a blast

Dammit this is what I was afraid of lol. I started playthrough #2 and didn’t get much further than the second area. It’s fine I suppose. It wouldn’t be the worst. At least I still have all the equipment etc from the first run

Plus, if you don’t live in Vancouver or Toronto, your chance of seeing a non Canadian artist is a lot more slim. And even then, they might come nearby, but then you’re spending either gas money, a plane ticket, plus staying overnight at a hotel.

Idk about everyone else, but I’m struggling to pay the cost of living. Never mind having a luxury like that.

I’ve heard that some of the wealthy are fleeing so that they don’t get affected by the war directly. I assume some are waiting for it to blow over and will return when it’s done. Or some might just set up somewhere else.

Of course, it’s impossible to tell without the whole picture (which we rarely have). I’m purely basing this off of what I have read and the videos I’ve seen. So I could be entirely wrong.
