Based on getting progressively better each time I played through one of the horizon games even with months or years between them, I’d say yes.

When I first started, I was awful with aiming and stuff (shooters have never really been my thing, I’m trash at aiming, horizon is JUST far enough from a full-on shooter that it piqued my interest and held it solidly), now I’m playing actual FPS/TPS because my skill and muscle memory in that regard has improved substantially. Enough that I got platinum on both horizon games. :)

In my case I like being a healer because it’s the one role nearly everyone else tends to be dogshit with and constantly wiping doesn’t scream “fun” to me. I was the main healer and raid leader for my guild when I played WoW (holy priest, never respecced), and I genuinely enjoyed the constant stream of things to pay attention to. As long as my running mates were doing their jobs adequately, my job was very active-zen. We rarely wiped, and even PUGs went smoothly most of the time because a good healer can make up for a lot of shit from a bad tank or aggro-pulling dps.

I had a couple mods, nothing that automated heals or anything, just UI tweaks to clean up clutter and then add more, but different, clutter, like an extra 3 rows of hotbinds and combo macros so literally everything was easily accessible. Cuz if you think I used keybinds to cast anything, you’d be wrong. Clicky clicky!

Kinda miss playing, tbh, but I stopped liking the sort of people who play it…

The dull process of defragging, cleaning, and optimizing computers was very zen. I kinda miss the ritual. Fixing computers today is a much bigger to-do than debloating and optimizing back in the day that I got paid for while babysitting.

Problems now just seem bigger and are built in. Like the laptop that mapped c to d instead for some reason. Bug of the hardware/software pairing. Cool…

I’d be the guy on the left, just sitting there staring off the side wondering what I’m doing with my life and if I’ll have an opportunity for a career change.

I was reading with increasing trepidation, and was relieved when I got to the bit about them being harmless, for largely similar reasons.

Lies! Lies and slander!

No no, I picked up the sarcasm loud and clear :) Just that it prompted me to look.

And I am one such person, yes. I peel the outside with my teeth so it sort of is sliced, but yeah not really :)

You made me look because food roses are pretty cool.

But now I’ve seen radish tulips, and I think thats possibly even cooler, because they are easy enough for me to do!

Which is a legit concern, birth is a major medical event with possible complications galore even if it goes well, and literally an emergency in many cases. Women die during childbirth all the time even with the best care.

Local dude here stopped running for office due to death threats against them and their family… small, semi-rural, conservative town, the most important decision for which is… idk, tbh. Can’t honestly imagine why anyone would threaten someone here.

Which makes me want to run for that position instead. Fuck you people, I don’t have a family to worry about, and I’m not all that worried about dying myself. Solid chance I won’t even know about them since I don’t use social media, and barely check my mail… they’d have to actually act on the threats for it to rise to a level I’d notice, and boy oh boy would I love that. Talk about publicity for the campaign for doing nothing!

I was about to say this is the tamest work of theirs I’ve ever seen, but then I realized the frame around it appears to be legs and the oval in the middle at the top is where the eggs are coming from, so its just slightly less obviously sexualized, rather than tame. Also distinctly lacking in penises.

I had a very friendly cat for many years who would come to meet new people and would hang out with them over the members of the household. He was everyones friend, even loved the post carriers, but this trick wouldn’t have worked because he was very very insistent upon meeting people as soon as they came over. He’d trot over and beg for attention, stretching himself up for pickups. Such a good boy.

Anyone who stayed over was treated to the absolute best cuddle buddy all night.

Genuinely so many things come from oil, and a lot of them are dyes. Also some antibiotics, and various other useful chemicals.

But yeah, a surprising number of dyes come from oil, and its actually a waste product of refinement. It’s a good thing overall with our current gas dependency, but its a fragile system when oil is one of the most sought-after finite-supply things on earth.

Grocery stores gunna start looking like 1930s movies. Surreal.

Im very excited for that. I love surreal stuff, and the more immersive, the better. What could be more immersive than reality (other than drugs)?

It’s also a stringed instrument, which always gives me a chuckle when I see that mistake

This was fun, and quite amusing. Must have been put out or updated quite recently? Theres a reference to hantavirus, and I can’t actually access that second link to find out more (mostly because I don’t at all consent to all that bullshit they want you to agree to wholesale).

Only gripe is that its not really super clear that you’ve reached the end and are being looped back through the play section, but theres nothing new to do except gain more levels (despite there being some things that look like they might unlock), so doing it again doesn’t really seem to matter. I went through it fully twice, just to make sure, and even looped back into it a third time just to make sure.

Also it felt really gross to play as trump, ngl.

Qr codes are way way way too easy to abuse for me to be willing to scan them. Especially for something as routine as ordering food. I certainly won’t touch an app or make an account.

And thats to say nothing of the other nonsense. Why do you need cookies to show me a static menu? Why are you partnered with hundreds of others to share my data?

Since they have higher income, they pay more taxes.

Citation very much needed, because lol no they don’t. Their propaganda sure worked on you, though.

In fact they hire people to find every loophole they can so they pay as little as possible, often less than us working class stiffs pay. Absolutely less as a percentage of total, if not in absolute numbers, tho usually in absolute numbers as well.

Looks like a cuttlefish, so probably safe as long as you aren’t an easily-hypnotizable crab

The secret is that all diy groups on popular social media are run by contractors. Thats why so much of the advice is terrible pintrest crap and will need to be professionally fixed for more than the original project would have run.

(Probably true)
