I'm rooting for the guy so I'll watch it.

Yeah I watched it like 2 months ago and liked it.

Guess I just didn't like the lore then.

I played the demo a couple of weeks ago but didn't really like it. I know it is a fantasy, but my town didn't feel like a place where people (lizards and beavers included) lived. It felt like some company-town from the 1890s, some rubber town in the Amazon built and lived in by wage slaves.

Looks cool. Will follow and try to stay positive.

My friend just bought this game for me and I've sunk 16 hours into it over 3 days. Lot of fun. There's a good deal of depth to explore and mastering the game is very satisfying, due to the steep learning curve. Once you start killing orcs you really feel accomplished.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe The Hobbit

I played it for 30 minutes. Didn't seem very deep. More flash than substance.

I played around with the farming last night and managed to get a settlement with 52 families and 20 months of food supplies. Needed 6 full time woodcutters just to supply the town with enough firewood. I had six medium fields that required 4 workers. Crop rotation is no joke. Two fields for...

When you set out houses make sure the plot is large enough, it will have a large + (plus) sign. This indicates you can build a garden on the plot. Super helpful, would recommend. If you run the demo and don't get a place that has wild game or good flax fertility, reroll the map. Wild game is...

I drive a manual and have since I was in college in 2011. I was one of like 5 dudes that knew how to do it. This was in Rhode Island. It was like being one of the last Romans who knew how to build a bridge in the Dark Ages.

Dude. Fuck ranges. Every single time I go something retarded happens, like some guy gives me unsolicated advice or a range officer asks, "Did you oil your firearm? It looks dry." God forbid you go to a range that only lets you fire once every three seconds. I deplore ranges. A friend of...

We did work at a guy's apartment and the leak was on the rental property. The cuty was charging him $1000 a month for water that was technically his line but a tree on the rental property had busted the root. Took us three days to cut the roots, dig down to find the pipe and repair the...

Are they stealing from you or from the city? If they are stealing from you, you can call a plumber to come out and document it with pictures and a report. Then you can go to the water department, as long as the plumber is a licensed master, and use that as leverage to lower your bill. They...

I liked the first three episodes. Feels a lot tighter than the original series, which I often thought meandered too much.

Shadow & Claw by Gene Wolfe A very well written book, both technically and in terms of theme. We view the world, strange and alien, through the perspective of a man who seems to be somewhat strange; a lunatic or someone who exists partly in another dimension. It makes for great reading...

I'm subscribing.

Why did you show me this.

Mystic shaman rastafarian warrior... First image was one of the original four that came out. Second image is a variation of the first.

Woke up hearing some scratching coming from the closet. Moved my church shoes and something moved, but I didn't get a good look at it. Went to make coffee and a roach flies at me out of nowhere and lands next to me, on the countertop. I kill it. And then I see another one on the wall...

The One-eyed God: Odin and the Indo-Germanic Maennerbund by Kris Kershaw A little dense but filled with some really interesting things, not only about Odin but also about bands of Indo-European youths, sequestered from their villages and families in order to undergo initiations to become men...

Went with a party of six, mainly my buddies and our wives/girlfriends. i had been working outside all day and had a beer before going in. Got up 30 minutes in because I wasn’t enjoying it and wanted another beer. My two buddies came out with me and we went back in a short time later, carrying...

Iron Kingdom: The Rise and Downfall of Prussia, 1600-1947 by Christopher Clark The first half of this history was much more engaging than the second half, though I don't think that is a problem with the author, but rather the state of the world. Reading about modern problems, such as unions...

Bought it and played it some over the weekend. I would recommend it if you liked Northgard. That being said it plays somewhat different from Northgard. There is more combat; your population is not part time farmer and part time warrior. You can raid and harass nearly from the get go if you...

Movie felt made for me. Berserkers. Mysticism. Some shots look like paintings. No forced identity bullshit. 10/10 would howl at the screen again

Just watched it. Really liked how they showed the situation from three different perspectives. Would recommend.

Good movie. It is essentially the coming of the New Testament into the Old Testament world. The world is full of violence. Needless violence. And then someone comes along who makes a difference through actions of caring for others. No one just 'stands in the background' to be used and abuse...

I liked the first two stories. The one about the painter in prison was my favorite, mainly for his relationship with the girl. The second story, about the young revolutionary, captures exactly what it felt like to be a teenager. At least for me. You are so idealistic you think you got all...

My adventures in the crawl space of fear have come to an end. The Mexican guy I worked for worked it out. I went under with him despite some trepidation. But I didn’t bolt and I count that as a victory.

We got sent out on another job. Easy as pie putting a dishwasher in. We go back today. I’ll report back. Pray for me.

Had to go into a crawl space today. Not a big deal I do it about 3 times a week. The door to this one was 12 inches. That’s fine it opened up a bit on the other side but then we had to crawl 50 feet and the drain we had to reach was on the other side of a beam. Someone or something had dug...

Well Royal Court came out and I spent most of the evening yesterday playing it. Pretty good! Had one game as Haesteinn. Loaded up my Viking warriors on their ships and sailed to North Africa. Took over Morocco and made a kingdom. Muslims declared a Jihad on me so I converted to Muslim, then...

what a dumb fuck

I am still playing and just had a game as the Byzantine Empire. For four generations I fought against the Muslims until I took the Holy Land. Then I invaded Italy. I healed the schism in the church and reunited the Roman Empire along the way. Looking forward to royal court so you feel a bit...

Buy Campbell’s Do it, idiot

Will buy.

Just binged the whole thing and for the most part I liked it. I thought it was a great example of Good Religion and Bad Religion. But the show definitely had some weak points in its theology, most of which have already been written about here. I'll write it out because I just finished the...

Turned it off after the episode with the marbles. Couldn't stand the shallow allegory of anti-capitalism. People keep saying that is it the best show of the year but they won't remember it in five years.

Both are servants of the devil.
