The broadcasters mentioned during the opening ceremony that Norway has the most medals, so I can see why you are pretty excited. I speaking of skiing, Lyndsay Von got hurt just before the Olympics, torn ACL I think. Is talking about still competing! At 41! That made me feel old, because I...

The Winter Olympics are ON! Anybody watching? I'm looking forward to the speed skating, luge, bobsled, skeleton and, of course, HOCKEY! Mexico did send a delegation. Our biggest hope for a medal is our figure skater Donovan Carrillo, young man has skills. Anyone else already watching?

So I had a coffee date yesterday. We met on a Metal board. We messaged a bit during work breaks and we agreed to meet at 10 am at a coffee shop. I didn't know what to expect, she would write in short, dry (could be seen as curt) messages, but she had agreed to meet. When she arrived we shook...

Never, they've been on my bucket list for decades lol

Been meaning to post for a while, bit life's been busy. Anywho, went to Dark Tranquility like two weeks ago and it was awesome. They played a 2 hour show which I loved and hated. I hated it, because it reminded me of when Amorphis only played for 45 minutes. Someone had suggested it might be the...

This is just a personal reflection on what is going on in the U.S right now. Back in high school I wrote a couple of papers on the KKK for a sociology class. My main source was The Fiery Cross: the KKK in America by Wyn Craig Wade. The book deals with the resurgence of the KKK starting in 1915...

I did stand-up for the first time in like a decade last night. A good friend of mine found this great little cafe downtown with really good vibe and really cool comedians with a chill atmosphere and thought it'd be a perfect place for me to get back into it. She was right. It went ok. I didn't...

I've read similar comments in some other forums and articles. My friend and I were also talking about how at least it is different, at least it showed experimentation. It's not a BAD game, it is a DIFFERENT game. Nintendo was experimenting a lot back then. Zelda II, Castlevania II, Mega Man 2...

This past year was a big step forward for me in truly embracing who I see myself to be and not who others see or want me to be. For example, just this morning my mother said that I "wasted" my time in high school in the U.S, because I didn't have a good enough to get into university and had to...

A friend of mine came over to play video games last Saturday. We started Stray and I have to say I really like it. The cat is cute AF, our NAVI stand-in is nowhere near annoying as the actual NAVI lol and so far I feel like I've found a lot of optional side content by accident and being who I...

A legal perspective on the Ice incident:

2 more protesters shot in Portland Oregon by.... You guessed it.

Venezuela was a test, and the world failed. LATAM, France, Spain, Russia and China SAY they "denounce" the actions of the US. Even some republican congress members "denounce" Trump's unilateral actions. Aaand, so what? What have they DONE? Nothing. Just empty words with zero follow through of...

Yeah, that's not happening. Trump has already stated he does not support Machado saying she doesn't have the trust of her people. The CIA reported the best people to run the show are the regime loyalists, said regime has already started violently suppressing protests and anyone pro US. Literally...

Interesting video on neoliberal western politics:

Ah, excellent. I'll check it out. I also got stuck on Lace for like a week, then beat her fairly easily. I don't know what's more frustrating, getting stuck or eventually beating that particular section with ease a few days later.

Is Shadows any good or are people hating on it just because it's Ubisoft? I like New Order and Old Blood more too. Colossus is... uneven in it's balance of seriousness and humor, but I'm glad it stuck the landing. LOL, when I used to do stand-up and the Robocop reboot got announed I joked that...

Rooney Mara, I also don't think the Farmiga sisters get the credit they deserve. One can make an argument that if your name isn't Meryl Streep you're basically underrated lol

I haven't worn a watch in years, but to not rely so much on my smartphone I think I'll start again. I have a Victorinox or whatever the Swiss Army ones are called and a Fossil. They just need new batteries, might get that done in the next few days or before the semester starts.

Finished Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. It's supposed to be "alternate history," let me tell you, sure a as hell didn't feel like it. Had I played it upon release I would've laughed a lot more during game play and especially at Wyatt's speech at the end. Now I just said, "yuup." Finished...
