On a side note, I have discovered a Facebook group called "We (fucking) love atheism". Which I do not have time for, but it looks like a deliciously fertile ground.

In truth, it's really that I watch the vids at work, and I pause it every now and then. I suppose I could do it during lunch, but I have a feeling that would be at like midnight or something for you.

Nah, you guys are only 5 hours behind.  Though chances are, I wouldn't start until 7pm or so anyway.  Gotta have dinner and stuff, ya know.  Also, I wouldn't be livestreaming anything important.  Just some Mass Effect, or maybe Skyrim.  As a test run.

I had such a horrible headache yesterday I could hardly see...


....so I cancelled my clients and poured boilernakers on it. Which, did not help until I found, sitting at the spinning bar, knotted fascia on my scalp, which after undoing, freed me from the horrible pain, I have had those headaches for years and could not figure them out.

That was also at noon. I have never had a hangover at 1am before. Fascinating.

Truly, the trick with booze is: do it all in.one go. I would happily never smell a whiskey again.

I am cracking up at how bent out of shape people on Facebook get about being blocked. Also, I accidentally blocked an admin and they threatened to ban me. :lulz:

Control freaks abound.

Hey a flaky gay dude who stands me up. How new and different. I do not know why keep trying.

That's 0/7 in the last 3 years.

Whatever.

If you're streaming some Skyrim, my suggestion is to do a run using the Ritual Stone and the Aetherial Crown, so you have unlimited casting of AoE raise dead. Every time an enemy falls, they join my zombie army until my PS3 crashes because it doesn't like figuring out the AI for 150 bandits, rats, wolves, trolls, giants and vampires every time I encounter an enemy.

Wait a minute, the PS3 can handle more than 10 AI at once?  That is news to me.

As fun as that does sound, extensive modding and remodding and remodding again has made all my high level games as unstable as fuck. When I last loaded my high level playthrough, I was chased halfway across Skyrim by a Frost Troll, who would never die and occasionally stopped to say "Whistle, whistle or a whistle?" at me.

It was....very strange.

The problem is there are so many great mods for Skyrim, but many are incompatible.  So I had the "hardcore" playthrough (combat much more realistic, better AI, more dangerous dragons).  I had the survivalist alternative start hunter in the wilds playthrough (I lasted until about level 7....when I died of thirst), the roleplaying playthrough, the visually stunning but no other mods because c'mon now a laptop is good but this thing is two years old playthrough....and so on and so forth.

Suu

...And in the end, Providence pissed on my bed before I left.



No, really. Here I am, under a brand new roof, in the nicer, larger unit that never leaked, half-packed to move...when the last Nor'Easter ripped the new roof off and my bedroom ceiling somehow leaked, 3 days before I leave this fucking city.

It's no different over there.

I'm beginning to suspect the problem is more fundamental. I think that people are slowly moving away from viewing the internet as an interactive thing. It's becoming TV.

Probably.  It's still depressing.  If I don't find someone to talk with, I'll have to do my job.

Apparently it's Presidents Day or something in the US?  I guess most people are taking advantage of the holiday.

Me, I'm having fun cleaning the house and getting rid of junk.

Nobody gets president's day off, except civil servants and some students.

I was home for 2 weeks.  I was crawling up the walls.  At least here, I can torment stupid people.
