God I hate gambling and casinos with a passion. And since I live and work near casinos I have to deal with coworkers either bragging about how much they pissed away that weekend or getting invited to go piss away money at these predatory businesses.

My partner and I play locally with an old PC as a server (we got tired of constantly needing invite codes). Its not bad and they're still adding new content and pals. We stopped for a bit around release because of the rubberbanding though.

To be honest, if I didn't live in Amerikkka and instead somewhere where Ladas were common I'd do it. Aesthetic, simple, cheap, and no built in capitalist spyware.

"Who pays for the guns? The ammo? Pennington says guardians can use the stipend to buy firearms."

What are they going to be using? Hi Point or some cheap .22 hunting rifle? $500 ain't alot for firearms. I mean, it's an horrible idea that either places dangerous armed facists in schools or provides more cranking pressure on schools.

In some places in America they still count if they were 'unexcused' (ie no doctors note, even if your kid was sick) and parents taken to truancy court. I remember some friends growing up that had to fight that because they didn't have the money to see the doctor over every sick day.

CW for work, medication, and mental health.

Men loving men.

Kind of forgot TekSyndicate still existed after Qain and Wendell left years ago.

But yeah, Windows seems to always get worse. Even 11 has gotten worse as it's been out. I hate dealing with it when I help my partner out with her pc.

I used them during covid, not specifically to avoid the virus (because I know it just passes the risk along), but because I was in the beginning of my transition in an unfriendly state so did not want to undo all of my work to boymode and at the time I was more financially stable so I could afford it. Always tipped well too.

For the average situation it doesn't make alot of sense.

Also Capitalism trying to shoehorn AI into every product possible. Why does my work software need an AI built in? It won't help us employees or the company, what would help is to fuck off with the 'do more with less' and pay us more. But no, someone somewhere got paid to add a worthless implementation of AI to our software.

Gin, if you can't handle straight gin then a gin and tonic. I feel like it'd be the right headspace drink for flying. Clean and proper.

Dropping the first в helps alot. Because trying to 'v' right before going into a 'st' was tongue tieing me really bad
