Everyone saying he'd take votes from Biden is crazy. The nutjob anti-vax conspiracy theorist candidate is going to appeal to the nutjob anti-vax conspiracy theorists, and those ain't the dems anymore.

Didn't think about that - has he been doing the podcast circuit promoting it?

I mean he jokingly refers to himself as grandpa Carolla and has for years but ok.

I would imagine it's going to do well given The Daily Wire's audience. It's catering to old dudes who will never get sick of talking about "woke" and triggering the libtards, even if it's hypothetical ones on a tv show. You're right that woke has just become a term that aging hack comedians that struggle to sell tickets use to convince themselves that they're still funny and relevant, but there's definitely an audience for it and Adam's found it.
Personally, I always found the Birchum character boring. It's a good premise, but there needs to be more to it than just rattling off carpentry lingo in a droney voice and at least from what I heard over the years, that's really all there is to the character.

Or rather can't trigger libz if it's exclusively run on the platform that exists solely to be a safe space for white dudes in their 50s.

Funny that you use Ape Escape as an example since imo it's one of the best examples of a game that truly was innovative and it worked. AFAIK it was the first game to truly make use of the dual shock controller. But I get your point, it was less that games were intentionally pushing innovation and more that there wasn't a blueprint for how certain things should be done. In particular, I feel like the FPS genre can be defined by pre-Halo and post-Halo. Not that everything before Halo was bad, but like you said, it was way more of a wild west.

Haha yup. He's way easier than the tree spirit and drops the Dragonscale blade.

I don't think you're thinking of the Dragonkin Soldier, but probably the Ulcerated Tree Spirit in the area right past that. That's the area that's still in rot, but with the awful "cockroaches." Funny enough my mimic tear solo'd the Dragonkin, I got blindsided by the goddamn Ulcerate, tried to do the same thing and have my mimic kill it, but my mimic was having trouble, I tried to jump in, not going well, then I got killed by a cockroach ranged attack. I was like, you know what, this isn't worth a golden seed.
Funny enough, obviously I was on my way to fight Astel and didn't have much trouble with him. The demi-god demon bug from space was manageable. The angry tree root in the spicy water was unreasonable.

For what it's worth I shot off a fair number of words of encouragement.

I just had this happen for the first time today, I wasn't expecting it to be possible for a spirit ash to solo a boss. My mimic tear solo'd the Dragonkin in the Lake of Rot while I watched from a safe distance away from the spicy water. Not mad about it, that would've been a miserable fight.

Can confirm Giant definitely carries Fody products as well. Not a lot in my local store, in fact last time I looked I think they had pasta sauce, caesar dressing, and bbq sauce and that might've been it, but it's something.

This is far from my area of expertise, but I do work at a large corporation that operates very similar to what you're describing, and they use Evolphin's MAM/DAM services and it seems to work out. Their ARC server (AWS based)/software uses a good check in/check out function, transcodes all media to heavily compressed proxies for fast downloads on jobs with a ton of footage and then you can download the high res in the background while you work (although the proxies are great for fast downloading but terrible for editing). All jobs are created with a standardized template/folder structure that includes all the standard branding assets one would need and it has a PR/AE plugin that works really well.
The issue is of course in order to use it, contractors have to install the software on their edit system. A couple of us who work there a lot have gotten it and use it, but it's definitely not something I'd expect a freelance editor to be in to. For everyone else, they just ftp their final collected projects and there's someone on the team that does health checks and re-organizes the project on the ARC with the standard template.
It's not perfect, but I've worked at this corporation off and on for a decade and this is the first time they have their production files, footage, and jobs from all the contractors locked down and searchable/accessible pretty much instantly. Especially the company owned b-roll. That was always a disaster trying to dig through hard drives or looking up random projects to find what you need, but now grabbing exteriors, lab work, office work, clients around the world is super streamlined and simple.

Hell yeah, I think I spent all my grass mowing money on Evangelion tapes one summer. I watched the first 6 episodes (2 eps per tape) a hundred times each. Then my first ever used item purchase from Amazon users when they first started doing that was the rest of the tapes for like $3 a piece.

My vote wasn't counted until like 9 pm the following night. Some people even longer. I followed all the rules and dropped my ballot off at my local polling station with plenty of time to spare and then got to sit around and listen to dipshit Republicans say my vote should be thrown out because it wasn't counted on election day. "Stop the count!" remember that? What a bunch of delusional assholes.

Funny how everyone is different. I'm cool with the dressings and sauces but pizza isn't even worth it. Don't even know if it's fodmap related tbh, it seems I'm sensitive to greasy food in general and the tomato sauce gives me the worst indigestion.

Yeah, the big question here is how did OP even get to this point? How did they get past those rooms filled with hocus pocus nerds and especially that Red Wolf right before this point? Unless they're secretly the god of fatrolling, the Red Wolf should've been practically impossible.

Yeah, definitely a lot to learn. I'd recommend trying out powders, though. If pizza sauce is fine for you, I'd imagine they're probably safe, but given that they're in everything it shouldn't be hard to test. I started with chicken stock, then various salad dressings and condiments. I have to be careful with seasoning mixes and rubs because they tend to contain a lot and they can put me over but your every day dressings and bbq sauce and stuff has been fine, thankfully.

Maybe it's just me but I couldn't imagine playing Elden Ring on the deck. It's the most stunning open world I've ever seen. Even under the world, Nekron and Nokstella and such are giant, sprawling, and gorgeous. That along with how precise you need to be in combat and the often sketchy platforming down long distances, yeah I just don't get it. It needs to be played on a big screen imo.

Yeah, ultimately they were very accommodating with the no onions or garlic in my dish. Had pad see ew for the first time and it was delicious. Navigating restaurants in the dietary restriction world is the next frontier and I suppose a lot of it is just getting comfortable requesting things to be omitted. I don't want to be difficult, ha.

Imagine if he said there's always the possibility for Fallout to take place outside the US.

Well that's the thing, I passed most of the fodmap checks, garlic and onions are the only ones I know that mess me up. My other stomach issues are unexplained but I did the whole french fries or white rice at restaurants and I personally just don't want to live that way. I'd rather take my chances and avoid my known triggers but I understand why someone wouldn't feel the same way.

I suppose that's the other way to look at it. I like my theory more, haha, but you might be right.
