Hell March was a jam, whoever wrote it hopefully got an award. I got a kick out of how From First to Last eventually remade it too, the song transcended the game.

Grew up in the '90s, really loved Red Alert, loved the movie Clue, and so to see Tim Curry join in was a pretty special thing for me as a kid. Guy was awesome.

Wait, you can secure SSDs and not just kinda push em in there?!

It’s chaos, but Jon Bois is amazing at putting order to even the most chaotic things. If you don’t know him, he’s purely a sports guy, but he has a number of video series on YouTube that are absolutely great watches, regardless of whether you like sports. I hate (American) football, but he has a number of videos I watched intently, because he does a great job of analyzing random number sets and plotting them out in a way that is visually appealing. Guy is a nut, and it makes for great television (obviously not TV but yeah).

What happens when a hyphen is used in a movie title? I think that’s frequent enough, versus an underscore or a period.

Gotta hit shift though. Period, ezpz.

This hits way too close to home. Bruce Willis (just your typical black haired cat) is an indoor/outdoor. Before anyone bites my head off, my wife found him on the streets of Asbury Park. He was probably three when she brought him home. He is beyond where we can be like no dude, you must remain indoors. There would be a breaking point that would end in someone dying, him or me, and probably me. He just needs to wander outside.

Anyway, at one point Bruce just stops eating, drinking, the whole nine, to the point it’s concerning. I know that when it’s my cat’s time, I’ll commit. I’m pro euthanasia in humans, and if my cat is suffering, I will end his suffering. But I will also exhaust some possibilities beforehand. Which I did. To the tune of like $4,000 worth of diagnostic testing and everything. Vets were stumped but tossed him on an antibiotic, which obviously he reacted well too, and so Bruce Willis lives. I’m confident this was a case of his feelings being hurt, because they found nothing wrong with him and the antibiotic was kind of a, well, can’t hurt. He’s soft, but he thinks he’s hard.

There are definitely some best of lists out there, ranging from top 10 up to 50 episodes, which nowadays is 4-5 seasons’ worth, especially considering the episodes are 40+ minutes.

You might search on the goog with the name of a popular website known for lists. This list covers my favorites and a few that I can’t specifically recall. And 25 is a good number.

There’s a few episodes where the show steps outside of itself and takes on a more humorous tone, and they’re must see. Some are more scary. Some filled with solid mystery.

I did this recently with my wife, who’d never seen it. I love the show; I think there’s some fluff. It followed a sitcom schedule of 20+ episode seasons for a while and they can’t all be great.

Eventually I looked up and pulled out specific episodes to show my wife, because there are the classics. The episode with the Peacock family, Home, I recall.watching Sunday night after the Simpsons at 9 years old and being woefully under prepared mentally and emotionally, and my dad questioning his parentening, but the episode was just wayyy beyond anything the show had done. Haunted me as a kid and I don’t recall but I probably ended up taking dad’s spot in bed, maybe a penance for him letting me watch.

It really was, and the last season such a pile of shit. I might even have finished it. Like, I get it, we needed to break out, but let’s maybe end it there.

I’m a little jealous of anyone who listens as opposed to read, mainly because you’re getting the pronunciation of names given to you; meanwhile, I find myself on google constantly spoiling books for myself because I’m like “How do I pronounce Chalced?” or “What does this accent sound like?” or “How does so and so look?” although that last one I think we may be in the same boat.

I guess I just read slow in my old age, took me about 10 months, although generally the only opportunity I get to read is after the kids go to bed and before I fall asleep.

I only read Mistborn 1-3 from Branderson. I intend to check out more of his works, but he needs to finish the one, Stormlight maybe, before I pick that up, I will not find myself in the situation GRRM and Rothfus have put their fans. And what I’ve read and know of Brandon Sanderson, I have faith he will finish, it I’m not one to put stock in faith so I want to see it published.

I picked up Farseer and absolutely loved it, and it’s odd because the first-person was a real change of pace. Name of the Wind was first person essentially, but that series has kinda left me annoyed and so I didn’t have faith first-person could do well, and I’m glad to have been shown it could. The pacing of Farseer was great for me, I felt like it went from slow burn to much happening over the course of the three.

I’m on chapter three of first Liveship, I have a terrible time remembering the names of books. I’ll read the whole trilogy, I don’t think it’ll fail my 10% test, where if I’m unsatisfied at 10% I put it down, and so I’ll just plow through. Definitely feels different now, and any relationships only tangential from existing in the same universe.

Depending how this goes, I either finish up this Robin Hobb series, 12 or 14 books or whatever, and go back to one of the Sanderson series, which name I also cannot remember.

And as to WoT, the last book could’ve stretched it’s legs a little more. Which is crazy because the last three books were technically just one in Jordan’s version of the telling.

I’m currently on the Liveship series, after just finishing the Farseer Trilogy. Prior to that was Mistborn 1-3, and I only mention the chronology because it all started May 2022 with the WoT series, and that’s on the picture up there so I’m lumping the rest of these into science fiction I suppose, despite Mistborn potentially being the only one that you could really call science fiction.

Wow, that’s a title I haven’t heard in years. That book was a rollercoaster for my buds and me back 20 years or so ago. I’d love to read it again, but it’s certainly something.

That’s the one. A general story throughout but each episode essentially a standalone, and so many fantastic episodes (and sure, some not as). D&D needs to get put back on streaming, though.

Yeah, more browse just subs, versus posts on individual subs. Like, just a list of subs.

And I am 90% Jerboa at this point, so if it’s on the browser version, disregard everything, because I’m here now and I’ll probably stumble upon it.

There are definitely more niche subreddits that won’t exist here without their user base, and for those I still pop on over, and more than likely will continue to, except only from my PC now, which is probably good. Lemmy isn’t as active in my spheres as reddit was, and I’ll count it as a blessing because reddit was, for all intents and purposes, a waste of time. Or 90% boredom with 10% something else.

I wish there was even a browse future. Sometimes the mind can’t think of what it wants is called.

Not sure why I’m telling you, but thanks for listening.

For sure. I still pop over there for subs that haven’t seen to have materialized here. I’m not a content creator; I’ll engage in discussion, though. So I’m in Limbo for the time being. Hoping to see Lemmy grow, and at the same time take on some of what Reddit did 10+ years ago that made it great.

I really just miss forums the way they were, but if you want active communities covering a bunch of topics, it’s gotta be home to many, many people. And with lots of people come lots of problems.
