So I bike to work, and considering the safest route from Pennsport to Rittenhouse, trying to stay on the most cleared routes.

My plan is to carefully take Mifflin to Moyamensing, to Washington, then up to 20th. I'm assuming the bike lanes on Spruce and Pine wont be cleared.

Its a three mile commute, so I can walk it, but that's going to take significantly more time.

Thoughts?

I'm in Sunken Harbor, and there's a musical flair that I swear is 98% identical to something from ATLA.

I really dug this game. The story was compelling, the combat was tight, the pacing was satisfying, and the exploration kept me engaged.

If I wanted a game with a similar sort of overall feel, what would you suggest? I'm not asking about the theme, not necessarily looking for another samurai game, if that makes sense, but the same sort of feel.

A quick search result from investopedia (surely not a rigorous source) says that the to enter the top 1%, a household must have at least $13.7 million dollars in assets.

So the one percent stretches from 13.7 million to Elon Musk, worth $421 billion? The bottom of the 1% is still closer to homeless than he is to being a billionaire. The difference between 13.7 million and 421 billion is about 421 billion.

And were letting them destroy us.

Dudes make 60k a year feel like Trump and Musk are their peers?

Jesus, we're really cooked.

So I had the pannier bags stolen off my bike yesterday while I was at work. Foolishly, I had my rain gear in their, as well, and I'm having a hard time finding a set I can somehow lock or otherwise secure to the bike.

The other option is to just never leave them on the bike, but that's less than ideal.

Middle of the day on Sansom, somebody just ganked me.

...that's fine, you're allowed your preferences.

But it might be time to acknowledge you don't like Star Wars.

I started CyberPunk 2077. I wanted to like it. I love sci-fi, I love the Witcher series, I enjoy shooters, RPGs, and shooter/RPGs.

I could not get into it. Soooo much walking or driving around the city. The gunplay felt squishy and slow, I was a little overwhelmed by the skill tree and cyber augments, it took forever to level up, and I never really knew what quests had priority. I also didn't understand how you can, say, shoot up a major hotel after being suspected of murdering a major crime boss(or corporate CEO or president of some country, I wasn't sure) and then just go back to your apartment and carry on. There are cameras everywhere.

The biggest hurdle was just how dark every int

Spoiler Season 4.

So the Mars strike.

I'm screaming at my TV. Danielle Poole, an astronaut, employed be NASA, not Helios, is the Commander of Happy Valley. Happy Valley is a miltimational base, with Helios employees, Americans, Soviets, North Koreans, Indians, etc, and the literal survival of every person on Happy Valley and every single cent extracted from the planet, and not one single, solitary person on the entire staff even suggests THEY ACTUALLY PAY THE WORKERS MORE!. Not even the Soviets. Not one single person none of whom would be remotely hurt by increased pay suggested maybe the workers were right?

Just grinds my gears.

I realize I should have been more clear, so I'm going to strive to do that here, having finished the second season and gotten halfway through three.

First, I stand by my original post. The character choices I mention still sem put of place and kind of nonsensical, and I'll never not be baffled by the Karen/Danny situation. I still think turning Tracy into a fame seeking alcoholic was an unnecessary choice, and I still think the recurring theme of astronauts being constitutionally incapable of telling the truth about their health is out of place. I get that all of these were deliberate choices, I get that they were done to set up different arcs in the future, and I get there is a full decade

Did they hire a new writers' room? Tracy's heal turn came out of nowhere. I totally understand leaving Gordo, but to just suddenly become a fame seeking alcoholic who sneaks cigs on the moon?

Don't even get me started on Karen and the wholly nonsensical Stifler's mom routine. Starting a sequel relationship with her dead son's best friend? Like, what?

Ed going full toxic masculinity on Gordo.

Karen basically insisting that Ed go back into space, then icing him out and insisting she "can't do it again"

Ellen just deciding "oh, yeah, let's just put missiles on a space shuttle" seemed like an unexplained, dramatic shift in motivation.

Idk, the choices a lot of the characters make don't
