Oregonian here. There’s currently over 100 fires burning across our state. 5 of them currently considered mega-fires.

Our state-level firefighters, as well as the federal-level are seriously, seriously underpaid. If you’re the letter-to-politician-writing type, please help advocate for better pay and benefits for our firefighters

Right on, thanks for the info!

Oh damn. Was coolroms part of that too? I’ve used emuparadise and coolroms a bunch over the years. Kinda makes me want to stock up just in case

I’m OOTL, which ROM sites got shut down?

It really seems like my grocery store (a Kroger brand) has been doing this for a bit now.

Prices on certain things vary wildly depending on the time of the month or the day of the week. Plus, with their bullshit, incessant push for everyone to use their app and online ordering, it seems like this will be much more common moving forward.

R.I.P. T-Rex

If you want to cry tears of pain and rage, listen to Dajah’s statement (one of the survivors) at the trial of the shooter. It’s…heavy, you’ve been warned.

Boooooooo

Post your ads on IG or something. Not here.

Headline reads: Millennials ruining the wall industry

I remember that line too

Nothing as profound as what you described there…
But… The Last Of Us was an experience for me…

I hadn’t played a “new” game in about 8-10 years at that point, so the huge increase in development was mind blowing to me.
But really, the intensity of the story is what really did it for me. I legit got teary eyed in the intro, and then the burning restaurant scene made me ball my eyes out…

Phenomenal fucking game

Or, to bring it back to my youth… The Illusion of Gaia was probably the first game I played that made me feel things. That was so long ago, and I was so young when that came out that being specific about it is hard. But I think I really related with the main character, and I remember really feeling things during the lost-at-sea raft scene.

I might need to go find the ROM now…

**Or, to go a bit further back, Dragon Warrior.
That was the first game I ever played that really captivated me. It was the first RPG I ever played, and even tho the storyline is incredibly basic and cliche, it was the first time I experienced a story at all in a video game. It’s definitely the reason that I prefer fantasy RPGs over every other type of game

I have so many questions…

We were having issues with our security system at my work one week, which resulted in the alarm going off a lot. For the next several days we had magpies that were mimicking the alarm’s tone and rhythm almost perfectly.

The author was an absolute wingnut. But in the best way

You should really read Robert Anton Wilson’s Prometheus Rising

You will love it.
