We’re slowly going #nolawn on our small plot of land (around 0.25 acres). Planted lots flowers during covid lockdown. Garden/flowers have grown wild the past three years. We have these wonderful bush like plants with tiny white flowers and we get all the butterflies, moths, and bees in our yard (even some wasps). Eventually we’re going to get the local prairie grass and flowers mixture so our plot can become a mini prairie in town.

I don’t have a useful answer, but I commiserate with you. Last time I went to one the lady in the drive through really REALLY tried to keep pushing that coupon book on me. No. I don’t want it. We don’t come by here that often. I don’t care if it’ll save me money now because it won’t in the long run.

Honestly, it left a really bad taste in my mouth with how pushy she was after I repeatedly said “no.”

Yes

Got a call from the school when my oldest was in kindergarten… “Your child just yelled ‘bite my shiny metal ass’ in the library.” I was proud and embarrassed at the same time.

Brand new to Wave 3 and loving it so far. Still learning as I go, but gamifying walking is helping.

I’ll join in on the obscure movies that defined my childhood and teen years…

Texas Across the River, Warriors of the Wind (horrible cut and dub of Nauiscaa of the Valley of the Wind), Sea Prince and Fire Child (we rented the tape so much that eventually they sold it to us because we were also the last ones to rent it), Anime version of The Little Mermaid, animated Hobbit and Return of the King, Fairies, Mio and the Land of Far Away

… That’s all of the obscure ones I can think of at the moment.

Final Fantasy I-VI bundle

Inside of my left wrist is where I got mine. It’s small enough to be covered by my watch band.

Not mine, but my dad’s that I was there to witness.

It was summer (90s) and we were all camping at a lake. My sister and I were playing with some kids while my dad was chatting up the other kids’ dad. Just as I was getting out of the water I hear the other dad exclaim “you remind me of a guy I used to know called [name]!” My dad laughs and says “I am [name].” Turns out they used to go to school together decades before.

It’s stuck with me all these years, and has somewhat been turned into an inside joke within our family.

Thank you for sharing this! I haven’t booted up my PS5 in months… Can this be used without their monthly subscription thing? I didn’t see that mentioned on the remote play website, so I figured I’d ask the stupid question.

Cult of the Lamb

Bought it right at the end of the summer sale. Been having a blast.

Unsure. From the way they word it on their website it doesn’t sound that way:

Why is it on Epic and not on Steam?

World of Goo 2 would not exist if Epic had not helped us fund the game! We were able to hire artists and engineers for multiple years to help us build the biggest game we’ve ever made. We’re grateful for this! You’ve likely seen similar arrangements with other games, and I imagine ours is comparable.

If you don’t use Epic, that’s ok. You can always get World of Goo 2 right here on this page, DRM-free, for Win / Mac / Linux. Just scroll up there. And if you have a Nintendo Switch, you can get it on the eShop directly on your device.

After your purchase on their site you get directed to Humble Bundle. I did not see it on my list of purchases, but I was able to download it using the link I received right after purchasing via my email.

The Entwives went east to Hobbiton…

I feel called out 😅

I have had whatever number of tabs open on Firefox mobile where it stops giving you a number and you get the ∞ symbol…

Heart. Lung. Liver. Nerves.

Met her briefly at a Sanders campaign rally. Would vote for her in a heartbeat.

I’m in this meme and I don’t like it

I second 8bitdo. I have the ultimate bluetooth model and I love it. That one can switch between bluetooth and 2.4ghz. Unsure how multiple controllers using the dongles would work though.

I clean my Samsung watch with a wet wipe (the kind you use on human skin - like a baby wipe or “flushable” wipe – which isn’t, never flush those things), and dry the face/underside with a smooth microfiber cloth. The band I have is some form of leather, so yrmv.

My skin can’t stand silicone bands so I stick to metal or leather.

I got an email from them on the 3rd, yesterday, and was thankful for their prompt notice. Prompt as in it was days vs months since they discovered it before notifying customers.
