Fuck it I'm buying it now.
Half life 2 was my first "I can't wait to get home and play" game, despite having played so many games from basically 97 onward.

1 it was too expensive to move out and honestly without the added income I provided my parents would have lost their house on multiple occasions
2 I got one the fall after I graduated
3 this one took awhile
4 lol no. Never. Children are the worst. I should know, I used to be one.
The older people I know who vote Democrat complain all the time about how expensive everything is these days and nobody can afford anything.
The bullshit "Nobody wants to work" narrative is absolutely pushed by conservatives.
It seems like every time it goes on sale, I am either between contracts or just not able to justify the unnecessary expense.
Now that I have more stable employment it hasn't gone on sale.
Honestly this by itself might be enough to make me pay full price.
I wonder how long it took, considering they wrote a script to convert the original transcription into PZ usable stuff.
10/10 mod, no pattern buffer for you.
Oh my god so much yes.
Make it chilly enough to wear an oversized hoodie and I will never leave.
To anyone who doesn't want to watch videos, it's a reference to "Beauty and The Beast", specifically the intro where the entire town sings a song containing lines such as "look there she goes that girl is so peculiar, " "yes she's strange, no question" and "what a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle" (her name) the whole time she is walking around town, well within hearing distance.
While job searching this year, I had someone ask "are you okay with me using an AI assistant to record your voice to take notes during the call?"
To which I said no.
She then said "sorry but the position has been filled, we can go ahead and cancel this interview"
Mmmmm. Sweet sweet lead sugar.
I've gone a step up, and am inhaling chunks of metal.
(I operate a saw cutting aluminum and have decided to wear a face mask but should probably wear a respirator instead)
You know those metal benches with metal arches for "arm rests" a lot of cities installed about a decade ago?
A lot of them use standard size bolts and Allen keys. No security, or maybe torx if anything.
Also an adjustable crescent wrench and multi-size Allen wrench tool fit nicely inside a pocket.
A cordless impact driver and associated bits fit in a small backpack as well.
What do those tidbits of info have in common?
Well that's up to the reader.
TO BE CLEAR, in case anyone doesn't understand, I am advocating for people to go out and disassemble anti-homeless architecture as a fuck you to the people who put it there. Being homeless is never a choice (not counting extreme outliers). Life is already shitting on them, denying them even a bench to sleep on for the night is just evil.
They said "stupid", not "evil"
Although I'd argue that any billionaire not actively dumping the bulk of their wealth and influence to sort out world hunger, homelessness, and inequality is being evil.
