The artificial lavender smell they put on those scented trash bags gives me migraines :/

Or it’ll be cancelled and never see the light of day, just like that other Sims-like from Paradox.

This city is up a mountain, dude. Some of the people hit hard are in some extremely rural areas, well outside town limits.

I have some friends in Asheville. I’ll be sure to scold them for not doing enough to fix their city.

I just got a deck last week and I’m loving it so far. Been playing Castle Crashers again (here’s hoping the new update comes out soon!) as well as Baldur’s Gate 3 with my wife, which runs incredibly well surprisingly.

If you haven’t played this one yet, I highly recommend it. Very good visual novel.

I am from Greensboro and it really isn’t that bad. I have no clue what happened with these people.

One of my favorites. RIP Trevor Moore.

One of my all time favorite games from a wonderful developer. Haley, my beloved.

Bazzite Linux running KDE Plasma 6. It’s a wonderful distro based on Fedora 40 (I think, still kinda new) and it’s made for gaming.

Metallica spearheaded the movement against the music sharing platform Napster back in the day. Lars Ulrich in general was a big opponent of music piracy. (Although, apparently he has since chilled out a bit).

He’s also just not a good drummer.

I guess he’s not that bad, all things considered. Just don’t like the guy.

Hell, I wish my downloads took money directly from him. He sucks.

“Did not know” is correct. “Knew” generally comes after a pronoun "I knew, he knew, they knew. " Know, however, is also fine after pronouns.

I’m sure there’s a properly defined rule in English for it, but I definitely don’t know it.

The cig is a nice touch.

I live in the US. Last year I had a wisdom tooth removal and was prescribed Hydrocodone, like you.

I took one and it made me sick, so I didn’t take the rest. They’re still in my medicine cabinet and won’t ever be touched, I’m sure. No one has come after me for it.

Gaslighting is the process of making someone question their own beliefs. It’s usually seen in the context of abusive relationships, but any person can gaslight any other person in whatever context (i.e., politics, etc).

I don’t know what smell you’re talking about about, but the extreme temperature might alter how you taste or smell, which may contribute to that.

Come down a little, fella.

I don’t drink hardly anymore since starting smoking. I like a good rum and coke every now and then, but other than that I’ve eliminated alcohol from my life. I also got crossfaded a few times and it ended up causing some pretty awful, uh, “religious experiences.”

Your ISP has bigger things to worry about than trace a user through a VPN service and stalk their fediverse comments for piracy confessions. :)
