Sulfur lately, it released last week in early access and it's been pretty fun figuring out the way it works. It has a quirky sense of humor which is nice, the gunplay is satisfying and the amount of tinkering you can do is fun.

"Many people are saying that as war becomes dishonored like trash, and its beautiful nobility called into question, those honorable, handsome men who recognize the sanctity of blood will become excluded from the dance. They're saying they're gonna be excluded folks, it's no good! The dance is the warrior's right, and because of these people, the dance will become a fake dance and the dancers fake dancers. And yet, let me tell you, yet there will always be someone who is a true dancer. And can you guess who that might be?"

He holds his finger to his ear so they know to reply:

Hogs: "TRUMP, TRUMP, TRUMP!!!"

For real, lot of bad stuff to feel terrible about but the visible decay of American civic process is personally very nice because I seem less crazy telling people how fucked it all is.

It seems like it's a bit early to tell. Iran doesn't want to escalate, if these attacks are limited they might not up the ante, like last time.

My schedule is tight as hell but I'm interested. If I can't make it I'd still love to see what you all do.

What else can you expect, the man's a professional.

Yeah my dad has become a lib. Which is honestly an improvement over defending Kavanaugh and stuff, but it does get old.

In my experience people in real life don't process this information. You can be super explicit and they'll just forget you said that, they can't internalize that you're more not a lib or a republican. I've had Q- brained people pivot to defending Brandon because I'm "being unfair to him" and then just forget that happened.

I'd say probably not. People really do get really busy, and they are almost never thinking about me when they do something that affects me as much as I am thinking about it.

That said, it's possible that it would be helpful to try and branch out, maybe to a local reading group or something given your stated interests, something to pick up the slack a bit you know. It's probably not good for you to have no human contact for days on end.

The sad thing is that sometimes even people who like you, or who you like, become more distant due to life changes that none of us can entirely control. You don't have to take it personally, but most of us have to find ways to keep making new friends over time, because sometimes people can't stay in your life even if they really want to.

Best of luck with the whole situation though.

I'd like to play music, although that's not job-y. I like cooking, I'd be willing to do menial grunt work. Already do that.

I think they're expecting a response to whatever shit the entity does to Iran, something that requires more oomph than the Iron Dome to stop.
