I don’t have a ton of time so I love that I can hop on and solve a shrine and find a korok and then call it for the day.

But also so much to dp that it might take me forever, I’m basically just wandering aimlessly solving whatever problems I run into.

Just got back into it myself, what a game!

I'll go ahead and add that as a white guy I'm "Uncle John" to a lot of folks who I have no actual relationship too. This is about the weakest attack I've ever seen leveled in politics.

I got into it late too but it is so good.

I definitely talked to literally everyone between every fight but my understanding was that most of the conversations were entirely optional.

seems useful to produce evidence of normal life to counteract that narrative.

I recently went on vacation in Portland, we had the trip planned for months in advance. There was no discernible federal activity or counter activity aside from a number of posters with frogs on them. It does seem odd to visit a place when we're being told it's a violent hellscape but it also (1/2)

Good? I want my fascists slow fat and dumb.

There’s an untapped market here in tactical sleepwear.

I’d believe they think every country south of the US is a β€œMexican” country.

I’m a little younger but basically in the same boat, when you have a solution and the means to build it you gotta do it!

This tracks, I was deployed to Iraq because the locals were violent against people who were deployed to Iraq.

My twelve year old gaming mouse just died so I swapped in a new one. It immediately prompted me to install mouse management software and I'm not sure this is progress...

The historically apolitical chatter at my local dog park has turned firmly anti-Trump.

Keep it closed. We can re-open it when we take it back.

Anti-aircraft guns are illegal but barrage balloons are not.

I’m fine with not giving Trump any more of my money to commit crimes with. We can start the government back up after the people retake congress.

This seems like it would have the opposite of the intended effect.
