A few years back my family and I went to my cousins wedding a few states away, we decided on driving rather than flying due to covid airfare prices. So it was my mom, dad, brother, niece, and myself. My brother and I were both in our late twenties at this point in time so it was kinda weirdly nostalgic.

Anyway, on our way back from the wedding, we were driving through the cornfields of Pennsylvania when we noticed a few oddly parked cars on the side of the road. It was near a stop sign so we had plenty of time to figure out what was going on. A guy on a bicycle was hit by a car and laying on his back surrounded by people on the side of the road.

My mom is a nurse so I immediately asked her if we should pull over, she thought about it for a few seconds and said no we are meeting your sister in Cleveland for dinner and we can't be late. So we kept on driving. A few minutes later, she looks back and realizes how selfish of a decision she just made right in front of my 8 year old niece, so she says we should all pray for the man. Me and my brother just looked at eachother in awe as she proceeds to recite the Hail Mary.

No joke, back in highschool I rear-ended someone waiting in line to get in the school parking lot. The song playing was I Can't Stop by Flux Pavillion.

I feel like most people have a feeling one way or another on this topic because it has become quite political, but the facts are the facts. Most new electric vehicle plants in the US are only working at most 50% capacity due to lack of customer demand. People can blame lack of parts and lack of workers, but one thing I know about this industry is that if people want them then they are going to keep building them regardless of circumstance.

Reminds me of an episode of Love, Death, and Robots. The one with the mech farmers on an alien planet.

Deep Rock Galactic. I kept wanting to toss a flare anytime I walked into a dark room.

Very few times since I switched off reddit, have I had an "opens post and sees my exact thought displayed at the top of comments" moments.

This is one of the those times.

Just got this game called Tunic on PS+, currently the free game of the month. Went in thinking this is pretty cute, wonder how long I will stay engaged with this obviously kid targeted game. Turns out, it is about as in depth with the creepy lore and map memorization as hollow knight. The combat can also be quite difficult, it's an isolated camera so hard to compare to hollow knight there, more dark souls like but much more limited in enemy depth or player abilities.

Thoroughly enjoying it, good progression of skills and unlocks. It has a very unique way of guiding the player through the game, you find these pages throughout the game that when put together slowly form an old school game guide book. Everything from upgrade guides to area maps have to be found, the weirdest part is 98% of the words are in a fictional language and only very specific words are translated like the name of a boss or area. I've reached many areas in the game where I know I need to do something to that alter or rock or whatever and I just give up and wait to find the page that shows a picture of it and try to figure it out from there.

Overall a fun game to figure out, it's the first I've played since Subnautica where I am refusing to look any game guides because I want to figure this out myself.

There was this one game we occasionally played in elementary that had no name, everyone knew what we were doing that day as soon as we walked into the gym, I'll just call it islands. The gym teacher would split the class in half and put out 6 wrestling mats. Each team started on their own mats and had to traverse to the second and then the third without touching the ground. The mats were spaced about 50 feet apart and we were given a bunch of random objects like pool noodles, a wheeled dolly, a plunger, a few stepping stone rubber pads, and I'm sure some other stuff I'm not remembering.

The objective was to be the first team to get all members on the third island, if anyone touches the ground you had to go back to the first island. It was mainly a team building exercise but my favorite part was to play the pirate. I would take the dolly and plunger and scoot over to the opposing teams side of the gym and taunt them from my ship as you could not physically interfere with the enemy.

Definitely my favorite game, I still have fond memories of that.

Funny though, I have no stand out memories of an activity I hated.

Making me feel lucky my public elementary, middle, and high school all had rock walls. They spanned the whole length of one side of the gym and were around 10 to 15 feet high so you really only climbed laterally, still a lot of fun.

How many times does it need to be said. Make Titanfall 3.
