It's hard to give advice when we don't know whether your dad is being a shit or whether you are just having remarkable amounts of trouble keeping track of things in your environment. As it is, you're an adult living with your parents, so at this stage your recourse would be to move out and...

Sounds interesting, I was wondering how it would translate. I don't think it would appeal as much as a game system to the mechanically minded, it would be people more interested in story. Yeah, I cannot say I have played enough computer RPGs in recent years since that time period of my life...

I don't know anything about the computer game adaptation, I'm just familiar with Monte Cook's tabletop RPG Numenera on which it is based (which basically simplifies the character creation process / gameplay process so you can focus on collaborative narrative).

damn you...! wait. actually no one showed up at my house either.

How were the martinis? Just straight or did you have something fun? I usually buy martinis and mixed drinks when I go out (I'm not much for beer, I can only manage about half a bottle of ale if anything), but the price tag can get kind of stiff depending on where I'm ordering from...

Bright: Much more enjoyable than expected, and suggests the failure of "Suicide Squad" rests at the studio's feet (not Ayers) considering the film is tonally similar to expectations for the DC movie and flows perfectly fine. Its main flaw which is also a strength is that it focuses on the...

I went to my friend's / adopted family's Christmas dinner and met the fourth sister I'd never seen yet (she's west coast, we're east coast). I didn't know my friend's husband could cook, but I was kinda blown away -- big thick grilled chunks of asparagus, prime rib with pink center that melted...

I love it when rb talks dirty.

Stuff like "kill your worst enemy" was so freaking on the nose. It was already clear from the first movie that Kylo felt like a slave to Snoke and was regularly abused by the man, and here he just went and rubbed his nose in how stupid Kylo was (where Kylo thought HE was talking to Rey, and...

the 400 number was used in the movie at some point. But yeah, it's still minuscule compared to the population of the thousands of planets involved. The trailer was okay, but I've seen better. The cave sequence was creepy but I'm still not even sure what it means even on an abstract...

When I went to China in 2002 (different cities across the country), i was kinda shocked at how popular KFC was there (along with 7-11). Here KFC was kind of dying, although it's now been making a bit of a comeback I think; but over there it was a big deal. --- My kids can't come down. I...

Yeah, mainly... although TMB wrote some interesting stuff about his band and similar, it just was kind of aimless I suppose. Typically the more engaging you are here in a way that can be discussed reasonably, even if controversial, the far more likely it is that you'll stay around. Not that...

Lucas and now these movies have always been kind of light on a sense of how this works on a galactic level. Like, it's so focused on a few small events, but the universe is huge and apparently there are lots of planets and we never get a sense of everything that could be going on elsewhere or...

you seem fine so far since your posts seem to be more analytical in nature. Kinda hard to define, but he tended to just use the forum/threads as his personal nattering board like sinny I guess. I do agree he provided some variety; I was kind of indifferent to this particular removal.

I am not sure what there is to discuss. It's not even really clear what the final movie of the trilogy will even be about, with the clearing of much of the board needlessly in this movie, some of the fake emotion, and so on. I think the most interesting part has always been the parallel...

It's not NFs, I'm kinda confused why you're going there. It's mostly intjs with strong fi/te. Plus all the people who lodge there who have been kicked off other forums and/or can't function irl and they have spent years normalizing their behavior, like lark and mal. There's still some decent...

I am way behind on 2017 movies, I just kinda petered out in the fall and haven't watched much at all. I did get my ticket for The Shape of Water on Saturday. I hope I enjoy it. This year has been kind of hit or miss for me, especially in terms of franchise and/or adaptation movies. There...

I saw your post on TypC. Yeah, kinda... that's why I bailed. The landscape there is not really of interest to me anymore. It just lodges too many folks who try to dominate discussions with their own pet values without engaging or discussing; the community became very fractured. I realized I had...

Diet Coke, although stuff like this rocks if I occasionally want to splurge:

Shapiro sounds like he's missing a basic understanding of trans issues, and are there really such a thing as "male vs female" cells aside from the 23rd chromosome? When you get a blood transfusion, what if a woman gives a man her blood or vice versa? Oh dear, all those cells that are supposedly...

Well, no one really stole those members from the site. It was all members who chose together to leave. Ptah was a regular member for quite awhile, and the members decided together to abandon ship because they were tired of all the tech problems that Haight wasn't resolving nor allowing others to...

Yeah, thematically the whole film was kind of all over the map. I'm just kind of surprised because all of Johnson's films have been more coherent; it's like once he was given a property to play with, with so much pressure, he resorted to light jokey stuff and/or kill sacred cows without offering...

I saw The Last Jedi as well and was kind of disappointed -- I'm a big fan of Rian Johnson but while the movie is okay, his other movies have been better. There's a number of decent "moments" in the fim but the connecting tissue holding them together feels kind of ambly. There's a lot of attempts...

Thanks for participating to simply promote your videos on our site. We will be eternally grateful for the opportunity.

hahaha you poor bastar -- I mean CONGRATULATIONS! YAY!

Thunks mach!

Justice League: Underwhelming. In fact, rather forgettable. I don't want to say it didn't have any good moments, or wasn't fun in spots -- it was probably a step up in terms of tone. But it also lost a lot of gravitas in the process... Man of Steel and BvS just felt much weightier. Here you also...

Hmmm. My articulations clearly are inadequately blistering from an intellectual perspective and so I have determined I must ameliorate my lamentable effectuation as we move forward in order to bequeath a suitable propensity of phraseology for posterity.

I've heard if you say my name two more times, I actually appear *gargly laugh* http://www.maskerix.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/diy-beetlejuice-halloween-costume-idea-4.jpg ... wait, I'm already here. dammit! :ahh04: -------- I can't imagine what 50K words I posted here, I haven't even...

I agree, although I guess people get confused because as gps notes (I think) it's a notation issue and parens serve multiple purposes (to group OR to multiply) in communication so maybe the notation could be cleaner nowadays. If parens were used to just group, for example, and the...

jesus even logged in Kaspersky keeps giving me 3-4 popups per page informing me about a virus on the link I just clicked and what it's blocking. And I also have to replace Kaspersky since Geek Squad is dumping them as a provider since they are RUSSIAN SPIES SPIES SPIES :storks: * danger...

The Shake Shack franchise is moving in here. I doubt I'll go, it doesn't look like it's my thing + with my diet changes I don't hang out in places like that much anymore anyway. After that fad is over something else will take its place. *shrug*

And so it begins. Life is no longer worth living. Entropy inevitably reigns in a cold dark universe.

not anymore. :( I was sick of the popups. Now I login like everyone else. meh.

Yeah, as the report notes: Respondents who experienced rejection by family and friends, discrimination, victimization, or violence had elevated prevalence of suicide attempts, such as those who experienced the following: — Family chose not to speak/spend time with them: 57% —...

Sorry. :o I kinda used you more as a springboard, rather than meaning to direct a full salvo rebuttal at you in particular. What a great tag team!

It looks like Phantom bailed, but anyway I did watch the season finale last night. Eh. The season seems to have been a bit heavy-handed on the sociopolitical commentary, it's not exactly clear why characters ended up where they did in terms of plots and motivations, and the final minutes...

Saw Thor: Ragnarok over the weekend. I don't think it's nearly what the gushers are trying to say about it (best MSU movie ever? Whut??), but it's easily a huge step in the right direction from the first two self-important, stuffy, bland, boring Thor movies that were released. This is more your...

so i guess the finale is this week. It looks like the whole thing was a spin of a spin... although the last ten minutes of this episode might be another spin. has there ever been a season when much of the cast WASN'T killed off? Maybe Freak Show? (and I haven't seen Hotel, although...

Short-term bursts are hard to maintain. it's that way with anything; energy is a limited resource unless you're hopped up on something (and then it just kills you eventually). You want to get sustainable practices down, usually layered in a bit at a time; those things typically have more chance...

Yeah, I have run across at least one MBTI dating site although the name escapes me. They are meant to avoid all the muss and fuss of blind dating, I think. And depending on the service they can work. My sister used Match, I think, and got paired with three guys, and ended up marrying one of...

I am all for a Hado/Gopher hydra. Although it might also warp the boundaries of time and space, and maybe screw with people's heads.... :confused:

It's a minor thing, but I remember when my food menu was a lot more limited because I had decided what my 'favorites' (or optimal) foods were and then only ate those. And that tended to be the way I did lots of stuff. But I didn't like feeling straightjacketed and have consciously allowed myself...

aw the size of your pness isn't as important as the skill with which you wield it. ... d-d-daddy? http://afritorial.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/girls-dad-knew.jpg

Oh you guys. People will say you're in love. If it matters, I'd be really shocked if you were INFP. You're pretty much not P, and IxFPs tend towards really P.

ah yeah, maybe that's it... my cell, I'm not logged in on and usually am reading Today's Posts outside of logging in. Thanks for the idea, Serac.

I got tickets for Saturday morning for Thor: Ragnarok. I figured it sounded like something that ought to be seen in 3D for the spectacle. I really hated the other two Thor movies, mostly because of bad/boring writing and plotting. Hopefully this is an improvement. --- After the Halloween...

Look, they've been doing surgeries starting in the 1950's and studying this phenomena since before that point in time. In the 60's and 70's, they were still gathering information about surgical viability because there were no long-term results, complicated by the fact that typically transpeople...

People have different levels of risk tolerance. Some need to be in control of their work efforts and workday, others prefer less risk and are willing to accept the tradeoff of less control. Sometimes too there are constraints that impact one's ability to shoulder additional risk (like when you...

I think age level matters. Most of manipulator's complaints seem to be regarding immature / young versions of the type. I've had a lot more luck with many of the "hated" types in my 30's and beyond. I think at that point people have gotten their shit together, hopefully... plus realize that not...
