It's worth it, most definitely.

ya the reason i'm not as interested in the older dark souls games is that i really like the mechanics of bloodborne better so im glad the new dark souls kept all those; makes it a lot more appealing, to me

ehhhhhh

It's a pretty different animal to Bloodborne really. Shields being a thing makes an enormous difference just by itself.

oh yeah i know i've seen some gameplay vids (and also some of demon souls and dark souls 1 and 2). BB is still way more offense-focused and all, i just think the speed of the game, item storage, etc of 3 is similar enough to BB to make playing it a lil more comfortable than demon souls/1/2 for me.

Try avocado oil sometime, it's very buttery and it has a higher smoke point. I usually use a mix of avocado oil and butter when cooking mushrooms.

drat that sounds good; i've never heard of avocado oil. i don't think i've even seen it in grocery stores around here or anything.

maybe i'll have to look at a fancier grocery store like whole foods or trader joes or somethin

there is a mocking bird that hangs out on the telephone wires near my new place and it mimics: seagulls, robins, woodpeckers, sparrows, and other poo poo.

huh, didn't know the brocialists who don't believe in identity politics had an opposite

i don't think she was saying that, i think she was saying that 'brocialists' by definition do not believe in identity politics

as in, that's a defining characteristic, of a 'brocialist'

i honestly htink the problem with a lot of these debates is that many people get into them with different working definitions of 'identity politics', so, drama ensues

SCENE � EXTERIOR
WOODEN BENCH, LAKESIDE

"JANE": So, what do you like to do in your spare time?

HOMEWORK EXPLAINER: [producing LITTLE RED BOOK] To let things slide for the sake of peace and friendship when a person has clearly gone wrong, and refrain from principled argument because he is an old acquaintance, a fellow townsman, a schoolmate, a close friend, a loved one, an old colleague or old subordinate. Or to touch on the matter lightly instead of going into it thoroughly, so as to keep on good terms. The result is that both the organization and the individual are harmed. This is one type of liberalism.

"JANE": Oh, um, wow! That's interesting! Do you have any family in to �

HOMEWORK EXPLAINER: To indulge in irresponsible criticism in private instead of actively putting forward one's suggestions to the organization. To say nothing to people to their faces but to gossip behind their backs, or to say nothing at a meeting but to gossip afterwards. To show no regard at all for the principles of collective life but to follow one's own inclination. This is a second type.

To let things drift if they do not affect one personally; to say as little as possible while knowing perfectly well what is wrong, to be worldly wise and play safe and seek only to avoid blame. This is a third type.

Not to obey orders but to give pride of place to one's own opinions. To demand special consideration from the organization but to reject its discipline. This is a fourth type.

To indulge in personal attacks, pick quarrels, vent personal spite or seek revenge instead of entering into an argument and struggling against incorrect views for the sake of unity or progress or getting the work done properly. This is a fifth type.

To hear incorrect views without rebutting them and even to hear counter-revolutionary remarks without reporting them, but instead to take them calmly as if nothing had happened. This is a sixth type.

["JANE" has gotten up and left. HOMEWORK EXPLAINER continues.]

To be among the masses and fail to conduct propaganda and agitation or speak at meetings or conduct investigations and inquiries among them, and instead to be indifferent to them and show no concern for their well-being, forgetting that one is a Communist and behaving as if one were an ordinary non-Communist. This is a seventh type.

To see someone harming the interests of the masses and yet not feel indignant, or dissuade or stop him or reason with him, but to allow him to continue. This is an eighth type.

To work half-heartedly without a definite plan or direction; to work perfunctorily and muddle along--"So long as one remains a monk, one goes on tolling the bell." This is a ninth type.

To regard oneself as having rendered great service to the revolution, to pride oneself on being a veteran, to disdain minor assignments while being quite unequal to major tasks, to be slipshod in work and slack in study. This is a tenth type.

To be aware of one's own mistakes and yet make no attempt to correct them, taking a liberal attitude towards oneself. This is an eleventh type.

i don't know enough about any of it to really have a concrete opinion either way on a lot of what's being thrown about (so far i think i'm siding with the people who don't agree with your solution but mostly agree with your introductory premise), but it's a good and readable debate.

i went to pride today and it was cool and good. met up with a few old friends and hung out all day, a cute butch girl winked at me, i got a hug from another girl. there was a good gay marching band from new york and it made me miss being in marching band even tho i hated it when i was actually in one. A+, overall

there were a few anti-police-brutality (and just anti-police in general) banners in the parade itself and i was right near an actual cop but i was sitll like "YEEEEEEEAH"

despite being a week after orlando the mood was still really upbeat and there wasn't any real fear or nervousness around.
