That’s just the way elections work. There’s no process for changing things midstream and the Democrats are not in power.
Once the election flips the House and possibly the Senate, then we can move forward.
The #1 thing people need to do before November is organize. Get people registered, get people to vote. Make it clear that the Republican party is intellectually, fiscally, and morally bankrupt.
There’s probably money to be made in purchasing the IP of these failed live service games and using the assets and art to make good single player games with an actual story.
I’d play the hell out of an Assassin’s Creed ish game in the Brink universe.
Ask them what they want to do.
Gaming? Windows. SteamOS is great but there are too many games that require Windows.
Creatives? MacOS. Yeah, you can do all that (and more!) on Windows machines, but the creative space is largely all Mac all the time.
Office Productivity? Anything. Libre Office is cross platform.
Want to complain about how you don’t fit in and it would be a better place if the world would just accommodate you? Linux. o
Hey, I survived Spinal Stenosis, Charcot Foot, 2 heart attacks, open heart surgery, congestive heart failure, a stent, 3rd degree full thickness burns and skin grafts, nothing scares me any more… but I am just so very, very, tired. 🙁
My wife says I’m not allowed to buy her the fun shirts:
so I have to settle:
Maybe not affordable and I wonder to if it’s like an anti-biotic. Once you start, you commit to the entire treatment.
We’ll see what the docs say once, you know, I get gutted like a fish. 😉 I already got cracked open like a lobster for the open heart surgery, what’s one more?
Chemo depends on the results of the surgery. Right now, it’s stage 2 which is resolved with surgery. If it gets into the lymph nodes, that bumps it to stage 3 and requires chemo.
So they pull the entire sigmoid colon and the related lymph nodes and send it all off for biopsy.
Hard to say, recovery is going to be a bitch because, get this… 12 days after my diagnosis, 1 day before the CT Scan and 2 days before meeting the surgeon, my wife felt a numbness and tingling in her legs, tried to stand up and fell to the floor.
An infection she had been fighting in her foot moved to her spine and tried to paralyze her(!) She had emergency surgery on her spjne that night, a lower leg amputation a few days later, and has now been in the hospital… (checks math) 14 days.
So there’s a real possibility we’ll both be hospitalized at the same time or, best case, in surgical recovery at the same time. She can’t come home until she completes rehab for the nerve damage and amputation.
0/10 - Cancer surgery in 11 days.
Boxofficemojo has it by earnings:
I would also accept Wilford Brimley.
Depends on what standard of living you’re used to. 😉
My mortgage is $2,200 a month, $26,400 a year.
Add to that other bills, living expenses, etc. I could probably get by on $50K or $60K a year.
Now then… lifespan. If you expect to live another 30 years (unlikely for me, but possible), that’s between $1.5M and $1.8M.
I was at a shop like that, kitty rolled over and showed his belly so I gave him all the belly rubs and picked him up when he started purring. He rubbed my face.
The owners were like “He… he doesn’t DO that!”
Yeah, well, he does for me!
So the plan is to completely remove the sigmoid colon and then attach the end of the descending colon to the rectum.
Fortunately we all have more than enough colon to go around.
March is colon cancer awareness month, wear blue and get checked! If it could happen to me, it could happen to anyone!

They really wanted to sit on my chest and had zero concept of surgery incisions. 😞
It’s going to be tough here in a couple of weeks when I go in for cancer surgery.
Xbox One X is still a better choice than the Xbox Series S.
Let me explain:
It has more RAM than the Series S, so Xbox One titles and backwards compatible titles will run with Xbox One X enhancements that the Series S cannot run.
It has a physical disc drive for backwards compatible titles, DVDs, Blu Rays, and 4K UHD movies. The Series S is discless.
The only downside are newer games that are exclusive to Series S/X, but really, how many are there? Cyberpunk 2077 plays on the One X.
The new Forza won’t run, but the older ones should!
Source: Put the Xbox Series X and PS5 in the living room, moved the Xbox One X and PS4 to the bedroom. Still use it!
Can confirm. Following open heart surgery, it was a competition to see if Rocket or Keanu could get closer to me.
The Cell - Trailer here:
Mine went from zero to stage 2 in 6 months, no family history, no genetic pre-disposition. Surgery 1 week from today.
March is colon cancer awareness month, get checked and wear blue.
Pro-tip, the stuff they make you drink before hand is NASTY. It tastes like salt water and not even GOOD salt water, salt water made with that fake potassium salt.
But if you add Gatorade powder (lime or arctic cherry, green or white drinks only, no orange or red) it’s drinkable. One glass every 12 minutes for 2 hours, wait 6 hours and do it again:
Colonoscopy itself is no big deal, you’re out for the whole thing!
