Seems to be a top seller on Steam if their charts can be trusted. Having played it myself for only an hour or two it seems par for the course for Bethesda games. Same faction wars, same simple / short story. That being said, it is stil

Tangent on this, The virtual cards sound great on paper but in practice if you get a compromised virtual card number you still have to cancel your main CC and start over which is stupid IMO. They told me since the virtual card number was ti

To elaborate further my comment also stems from articles referring to things like this being a $50 billion dollar industry. A lot of services or goods are described as such like we are all just dollar signs. I also play airsoft, walk twice

Having a child myself with an IEP I absolutely agree with how utterly useless it is and how horribly the system works in practice. It's even worse nowadays as accountability has been completely removed from students and parents leaving

Thank you for taking the time to respond and expand. I totally agree with the context you provided as you also see these same types of systems gobbling up many minority groups for profit or puritanical religious reasons. In my personal expe

I was previously on Guanfacine in combination with Adderall for my blood pressure so I don't have experience taking it solely. I did learn I cannot take stimulants at all, it takes my anxiety to 1000 and makes me a complete a-hole arou

Lemmings is a great game! If you haven't seen it yet, I stumbled upon a somewhat modern version / idea of Lemmings called Humanity. I've been playing it on PS5 but it's also on steam and probably others. https:/&#x

Great book so far BTW. Man, Romero had an interesting/rough childhood, that's for sure. The crazy part was also working 2 full time jobs essentially, 8 hours at softdisk then they would use those PCs at night for 8 hours to crank
