Shadowverse. I've been looking for a good card/deck game that doesn't require playing online and buying cards. So far, this game looks pretty good. I also got powerwash simulator. I thought it might be a good game for when I just wanna zen out and not think too much. hahahaha!

I think her issue isn't that she's paying more via fees and tips. It's that the store is charging her more for every individual item. One would expect to pay the shopper and delivery person for their effort. But realizing that the store is capturing most of that AND charging you more for every item on top of it seems to be the problem. The shopper, delivery person and the buyer are all getting shafted.

I'm at 14% downloaded. 8 more hours to go. Sigh...my internet sucks. Ah well, I'm at work anyway, so here's hoping that It completes without a hitch and I'll get to start playing tonight.

 

There's nothing I can say any better or with more detail that he's already said it. Yikes!

Yep. We rang the alarm bells 20 years ago. No one listened. I left the state, but the fact that this was going to happen was as plain as the nose on your face. People just didn’t want to see.

People don’t want to do the hard work that it will take to live by a new paradigm. It will break the economy for years, but it’ll likely take that to change things. Eventually, we could build back something more in tune with our ecosystem.

I'm thinking about a ranger build. I can't decide whether elf or drow or what subclass though.

I used to live in Florida 20 years ago. I also went scuba diving off the keys. Back then it was shear worrisome that water temps were getting in the upper 80s and there was some occasional bleaching.

It breaks my heart to see what’s happening now. It’s so much worse than it already was when I lived there.

 

I was watching the tv series on Apple TV and got hooked. The pace was a little slow though and some parts of the plot seemed over worked and drawn out. Nevertheless, the premise for the show was so intriguing to me that when the first season ended on a cliff hanger, I opted to jump into the books instead.

I’m half way through the second book and I can say that I find the books much more gratifying that the tv show. It moves at a much healthier clip. I find it hard to put down.

I just wanted to recommend it to anyone else who likes sci-fi.
