I love that it has the Strickland logo on it.

A while ago I sent my friends the covers of the Game Informer magazine that came out the month and year they were born. It was a cool thing to see. Sort like like the cooler version of a Zodiac sign, but only works if you're in your 20s or early 30s.

I don't know, man. Those squirrels are some pretty crafty thieves. You never see them coming, and then they're off to sell their prize at the black market.

I'm already shorter than most women I'm attracted to. What's a couple extra feet?

Just thinking about her for what purpose? ;)

There was a NY style pizza place within walking distance of my high school, and I would sometimes just order the breadsticks because it was cheap.

A lot of the reason I've put off buying a bike is that most of the bike lanes were either nonexistent or painted ones that abruptly ended whenever there's an intersection. I personally knew a little kid who got hit riding through the neighborhood, and whoever hit him sped off. Luckily he survived, but he very easily could have died if they hit him at a higher speed. Drivers just normalize being impatient way too much nowadays (especially after the pandemic) that you can't trust people to obey things like painted lines. You need barriers, even if they're cheap temporary solutions.

So cute :D

I haven't, but I have pulled by shoulder lifting a mattress at a weird angle to put on a fitted sheet that caused me to hear ringing in my ears and made me feel like I was almost going to. That was maybe two weeks ago, but it stopped after I laid down for a bit.

What's become the most deadly wildfire in the United States in the past 100 years, and they still found all of the bodies. 93 people have been confirmed dead so far, but there's at least 100 people missing. They're searching with dogs through the rubble, so those numbers will probably change in the next 24 hours.

It can be funny but it’s honestly more emotional than you might expect. It’s really more of a drama. That being said, the jokes make it easier because the setting is really gloomy.

Also, don’t think about the science too much going in. These are classic zombies that just became more human through medicine. They haven’t even really found out why they came back, only a way to treat it. The medicine hadn’t even been around long enough to know what happens to the patients longterm. Also, the fictional medicine is not very subtle in the fact that it almost sounds like a real antidepressant. (Neurotriptyline vs nortriptyline)

In The Flesh is a zombie show about what happens after they develop a cure for zombism and reintegrate them back into society. Unlike most modern zombie settings, "Partially Deceased Syndrome Sufferers" are your classic "crawling out of the grave" type of undead that aren't capable of spreading it through bites. Instead, if they eat a person, that person just dies. On top of this, they only know how to treat it through an injectable medicine, but many physical effects of dying are permanent and they are capable of reverting back if they go off of their meds or take a drug called Blue Oblivion. Underneath their makeup and contacts, they still look like corpses. This leads people to be very cautious around PDS sufferers because they're unsure if they're taking the meds properly or worse- not absorbing them. There are also a group of people called the HVF who used to actively fight the undead who are now adjusting to both civilian life and also the fact that the enemy is now considered human. They don't get much action anymore with the exception of catching the few untreated undead that still roam around in the wilderness and bringing them in for the reward.

The show follows Kieren Walker as he returns to his family after years of being dead from a suicide at 18. His younger sister, Jem, was a member of the HVF and found him and another zombie eating her girlfriend, Lisa. Jem couldn't bring herself to kill either of them, and this led to them both being able to be treated. However, she struggles with the guilt that she could have done something to stop him from killing Lisa and is initially hostile towards him when he returns home. To complicate things, his old "hunting buddy" finds Kieren and introduces herself as Amy. She's an outspoken hippie who tries to seem like she doesn't care about what people think and believes people should get used to the situation. She also doesn't cover herself up with the makeup and contacts, while Kieren can't stand to look at himself without them.

There is a group called the Undead Liberation Army who are first introduced to Kieren by his roommate while he was still in the facility. They live on a commune like peaceful hippies, but are extremist in their beliefs and want to cause the Second Rising to get revenge on the living. They are also creators of Blue Oblivion, the drug that can temporarily revert the user back into a predatory state before it wears off. They use it to coordinate terrorist attacks on the living, and his old roommate in the facility took the drug to attack the staff.

On the polar opposite side to the Undead Liberation Army, there is a political party called Victus who was formed in opposition to reintegrating the undead back into society. They gain political control over the town, and push an already hostile environment even further.
