    The D&D thread

    Thanks search function! @Lightning Lord Rule Anyway, a long time update on my initial post. She gave up D&D for a while, not really caring because none of her friends were into it. But now a group of 6 kids at her school have started playing. Last week was their first get together, and they...

    As gay and lame as it is to say this, I kinda like Iya, Shinai!!. It's this slice of life show about some kid in high school that starts a business making jewelry and shit. Nothing much really happens in it, but it's a peaceful story. I'm enjoying it as my only show on Friday.

    Thunderbolts* (2025)

    First 3 are Sony movies. They are not Marvel, even if the characters originated in the Marvel Comics. Has nothing at all to do with the movies.

    Thunderbolts* (2025)

    I saw this today and I really liked it. It was way less super-hero type movie, and way more team work type. Yes, there were "some" super hero things that happened, but the majority of it was very normal. I've never been impressed by Yelena before, but seeing how she interacted with Sentry...

    My first concert without parents, IE - Not their music) was Megadeth at the Electric Factory in Philadelphia. I've seen Megadeth there quite a few times since then, but we don't really get bands out here in Hawaii. The largest venue, now that the stadium has been torn down, is the Blaisdell...

    Health Problems

    It's strange. I have had many medical situations in my life, and have been hospitalized probably 15+ times, and covered almost head to toe in that transparent hospital tape. Them a little over a year ago, everywhere that tape touches my skin turns red and very itchy. It's strange to see a...

    Guardians 3 wasn't terrible. Not quite as good as 1 & 2, but you might like it. Deadpool & Wolverine was fantastic.

    I'm going on Friday, because that's the first day my local Regal is doing a 3D showing. I stopped reading that thread a while ago, and only ever watched the first trailer. I'll read it again after I've watched the movie.

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    I get in these Instagram scroll loops every now and then, and there's always a lot of videos about people saving wild animals, and they always have this bullshit "I would die every day waiting for you" song, so I wanted to get it out of my head. I replaced it with old school power man 5000.

    Ender's Game (2013)

    So I stumbled across this and gave it a watch tonight. It was visually, very nice. The movie itself wasn't bad, but it didn't do much for me either. Oh well, I won't have to worry about watching it in the future.

    A buddy of mine shared this strange band called Electric Callboy with me. I'm describing it as a mix between EDM, Marilyn Manson & Ramstein. I'm digging it. So because he shared that with me, I dug into them a little more. They actually did a track with BabyMetal, the Japanese band...

    If it's not on Nyaa, it hasn't come out yet. Sure, some steal from streaming sites and relink on Nyaa, but some people record directly from TV feeds in Japan. If it's out, it'll be there.

    Minecraft: The Movie (2025)

    I've tried Minecraft just because my son wanted someone to play with one night. This game is shit. I pretty much just ran around looking at everything, seeing if I could pick it up or not. My old MMO habits. Ohh, I bet this is rare. "Stop dad, this isn't fun." I did pretty much the same...

    So I don't usually eat fast food anymore. I have my own chicken sandwiches that I make with sous vide chicken thigh & chibatta bread for my work lunch meals. I'll make 16 at a shot and just freeze them until the day I eat one. Then over the weekend I'll have lunch with the kids, which is...

    I work with this minimum wage fat girl that ALWAYS has a starbucks contraption in her hand. It's never just coffee. It's something more expensive. I've told her to stop wasting her money, but she has no interest in doing anything different. So whatever.

    The Fast Food Thread

    I agree. Paying someone to deliver food is fucking pathetic and lazy. Get off your ass and get your own food or learn to make shit yourself. Stop pissing money away on a delivery fee among all the other bullshit. Food shouldn't make up 90% of your total take home earnings.

    Is there any mobile games out there that aren't just money grabs?

    I hear good things about Gailardia Trilogy. It's 11 years old, and still runs fine. Has micro transactions, but not using them doesn't seem to change the game at all. It's set up like early Final Fantasy & Dragon Warrior games for the NES.

    Rick and Morty

    I don't disagree in theory, but at the same time, last season wasn't bad. The final episode of the season got a little emotionally deep as well, with characters coming to terms with themselves. It was a good watch.

    Savage Dragon was my first Image Comics experience. I was away at summer camp and Savage Dragon #1 was in their little trading post thing. I used to go up there any time I was bored and got that. Summer camp was 1-week long, and after getting this book, I started to collect Savage Dragon at...
