He's running in the primary against one of the most powerful "behind the scenes" senators in the party. This is the Senate Republican political action committee trying to trash him into getting out of the race.

My first thought was Wells Fargo but they’d burn down a rainforest for an extra tenth of a percent.

Nice call on Jade Empire.

Exactly the same here. Loved one. Two was not great.

I knew a very large company that was offered a hundred million dollars if they would build their factory in Louisiana. They didn’t do it because the workforce could not support the factory. Not enough engineers and higher education workers, but plenty of line workers.

Mets is going to take the money and run. They’ll meet minimum requirements then hollow it out.

My 13 and 15 year olds are PC first gamers, then consoles, then mobile. I raised them that way on purpose because I wanted to avoid tablet and phone screens. I could control access better that way.

And yea, also because I’m a pc and console gamer and wanted to play my favorite games with them.

The older one has started playing mobile games more often and yea, it’s Genshin and Honkai. That kid was always in love with Fire Emblem, so Honkai makes sense to me. The stories are all kind of the same.

A friend stayed with us for a few days and they have a 12 and 10 year old. I have every console imaginable, PCs on big screens, and they never left their tablets.

I think once kids get on the tablet/phone/mobile games, they don’t really leave. I don’t know that I would have either.

Joust. Easily understood game for little ones, and you can discourage player killing.

They’re expensive because they’re cover for the executives to make a move. The executives can shield liability and justify any change by saying they did it in consultation with a big firm. It’s virtually impossible to pierce that with a lawsuit.

My youngest just became a teenager. I knew life was coming every day and I’m still shocked. I’m a tired old man now.

I get olds looking at babies wistfully now. Wiping an ass and moving stuff to the middle of the table so toddlers can’t reach it was the easy part.

Little kids, little problems. Big kids, big problems.

Man I loved my tiny flip phone I got in Korea in 2000. It was killer. I wish tiny phones made a comeback.

Aside from this being false, it’s kinda crazy that Steam has had no significant public leaks.

In West Seattle north of the Junction, the best one is Belvedere Park. Great hill length and speed without being too crazy for the little ones. Also Hamilton Viewpoint is a great spot.

Where's your spot?
