Is that where they put the chemicals to make the frogs gay?

The Megaman series feels difficult to me too, the Megaman X series feels difficult but it's got a soft spot due to when I was growing up. I highly recommend the Legacy Collection for megamanX, it gives some features the originals were lacking that were infuriating (like remembering passwords in order to 'save').

20xx and 30xx are 'spiritual successors' to the Megaman X series, but it's a rogue-like, meaning portions of it are randomly generated and when you die you do start over and the power ups you get are not set in stone in terms of order or whether you'll see them at all. So if you liked Megaman X but wanted something that's got an 'active' community and even co-op, it's definitely worth a look.

You'd like 20xx and 30xx if you liked the Megaman X style of games, fjeyre all chip tune and in a similar style to what you've played. Also, Megaman X (and Megaman Zero, the continuation of the X franchise) are fantastic.

Music wise, give Spark Mandrill's theme a listen from MegamanX and tell me it doesn't hit just right.

Fuck Modi, fuck his goons, I bet the only reason he's so upset about Canada is that he was secretly hoping to stil get poutine-stuffed by Trudeau.

? You don't mount your rig on the ceiling? Okay, Neanderthal.

What the fuck is this picture though? Who is taking these? What do they mean?

Listening to Patrick Stewart say, with full frustration in his voice "we are not here to have FUN" would have made me laugh him out too. God I would have killed to have footage of that

I think they're saying it's an issue specifically in reference to how employee wages have grown in comparison. If we look at previous decades, you'll see that CEO and other executive level pay has increased substantially, and has absolutely left employee pay in the dust. That isn't to say people shouldn't be paid more for a good or important job, but we should probably be keeping a watch to ensure those with plenty don't take even more from those with little. And if those at the top are taking more, historically, than their fair share, then that needs brought in line.

Most common? Most likely depression or attention based disorders. Most common treatment? Evaluation of physical health factors, recommendation of increased exercise, change in diet, and social structure is usually the first step. If those challenges are daunting or already addressed, then medication management comes into play. If they can't confirm a specific deficit in your hormones, they usually start very low on the medication scale and then begin turning it up after seeing how the patient adjusts. Unless it's ADHD meds, in which case there's so much of a shortage they'll STILL tell you to try all the other things first at least one more time because they can't order you the pills anyway.

I'd back my argument up with a source or two if you wanted it, but it didn't seem like that was your vibe in the other comments. "Community based" approaches like getting people outside more, to see other people in person if they can so they can get some socialization, engaging them within their community so they can feel apart of something, those are all very good and awesome ideas that have legitimate backing from the scientific community to reduce the symptoms of the most commonly diagnosed disorders.

But you know what makes engaging in my local community easier? 5mg of D-Amphetamine for me, so I can keep my squirrel brain in check long enough to say going outside is my plan and that I want to tolerate hearing other people talk around me while I'm trying to think. For some, the added protection of an anti-depressant that stops them from reaching the same "basement" of emotion, keeping them baseline long enough to do their job, get the groceries, and sign a kid's report card until they've gotten themselves into a routine that doesn't lead to as many drops.

Sure, some things are societal, but a very good portion of it is chemical and denying it would be silly. Now, WHY there is a rising number of diagnoses compared to previous generations? My first assumption is stigma, more people are just being honest or feeling more comfortable sharing. But there's also the factor of microplastics, pollution factors, unregulated food industry, etc. that play a large role.

Can confirm, was band nerd, played trombone, have said line (jokingly) to partners. Been circular breathing for all 4 years of marriage so far.

I remember learning it as a semi-historical idiom, that nice white cakes and frostings could be expensive, so poor people would pay to have a pretty looking cake that's mostly for show that's like a prop or for a nice tasting cake that doesn't look grand or large. Old guy could have been telling a tale though.

A Tier? AAA ranging on Universe Killer Tier. The perfect response becomes the perfect negotiator, the perfect social infiltrator, the master manipulator. He casually gets free coffee, he cajoles his way through national secrets, he convinces his landlord that the concept of income through scarce resource stockpiling is immoral and that they should see the property as a shared commodity. Genius

Not a B tier power, my God you just invented the governments secret delivery method. You're planning perfect extraction and invasion strategies, nuclear fall back evacuation routes. You just became a national secret, son.

Damn dude, do you gotta be a cunt on the internet for no reason or is it fun? They've been saying that same "you'll get it when you're older" since I was in school and that's been a minute. Normally it came from some small minded blowhards, but I'll give you benefit of the doubt.

Their effort was to find the sources for you that purport their claim. It's not a big nuanced argument, they presented what they thought, you asked a question about what they meant, they linked you supporting information so you could be aware.

It's not their job to dissect the sources for you, it's their job to present their argument and if you didn't get it then they link you the bits they used. If you still don't get it, stop engaging with the person who linked sources.

When you were in school, did they teach you how to evaluate sources from multiple forms of media? Because the internet wasn't as massive as it is today when I was taking those classes, but they still taught how to go through a magazine, website, book, and video sources to identify the bias and reliability of the source.

If the only conversations you're having a full text and no one is linking to a source when they're making a claim, you're having a conversation, not a discussion or debate. It's why people cite their sources for published pieces, gotta check for plagiarism and you have to identify where you got information you claim is factual, it's just part of having those kinds of communications.

Instead of a bribe, I call it a Bid. I'll give a tip for good service, somebody waiting around an extra 10 minutes at the restaurant because they're giving us BOTH the runaround? Absolutely, have an extra bit of cash, you didn't have to do that for me and I want to compensate that extra effort so they're more likely to go that extra mile in the future without fear of it hurting potential profits they would have made by dropping me and picking up another order.

I'd say you hit the nail on the head. I'd love to be more active in politics, this next election I thought about trying to help organize some rallies or just work with the locals on setting up informational events.

Before this year, I didn't have the time or money to do anything like that. If I didn't live in the cheapest possible place, I'd still not have the money or time. To make it worse, running against conservative in the Midwest, especially places like Indiana, is a surefire way to just about waste your time.

He was giving you sources so you could understand his viewpoint and see if it holds merit outside of anecdotal experience.

Do you think the way you responded fosters good faith conversation?

This would funnel people away from anti-abortion practitioners and locations. They don't want that, they WANT you to come in and be talked down to by a 'Family Planner'. They want people to come into the church run clinics.

Baldness and greediness increased by 12% Year over Year. We saw an overall decline in employee health, for that I want to thank the board and our shareholders, we couldn't have done it without them.

Also, just so we're clear, I don't want to live anywhere near Gaza or Tel Aviv. Locals on both sides seem to have too much animosity for my liking. To be fair, who would want to live in Gaza when it's being bombed all the time.

I wouldn't want to live in Tel Aviv either, crime rate against people who look like me isn't friendly enough.
