Are you suggesting lower cost and some convenience in exchange for incomprehensible risk is somehow a bad deal?

I wound up with a ton of stuff but I can’t go wrong with the good ol fashioned axe

Taunt and whirligig saw were the other level 10 and 9, but I also had high level LHB (fire) and Moon blade, didn’t go too crazy with the church pick but it was still super fun to use and you can’t go too wrong with the saw weapons

Ended with cannon/gatling but never really used stagger so it was just for emergencies

Deciding on a bloodtinge run or a beast run next!

Is part of the reason for a big drop off in “big donor money” because of Biden’s (sudden) age?

Or are the wealthy just accepting that Trump will make them way wealthier than they already are at the trivial cost of democracy that would only affect the poors anyhow?

Seems like democracy in America is already snuffed out and the wealthy rats are happily trying to get the last good spots on the dictator-ship

While I agree with you on how ridiculous everything this person does and believes in, I am not sure how I feel about the “entrapment” part

While I don’t know the specifics of the entrapment, anyone getting entrapped by pedophile bait should be exposed.

It’s absolutely ridiculous to believe pedophiles only exist in one political camp, especially with mountains of evidence showing anyone with wealth, power, influence, and status (politicians, police, religious leaders, authority figures) are more likely to be pedophiles. It seems that politically, more Republicans than Democrats are convicted pedophiles, but it’s certainly not one or the other.

“Hunting pedophiles” rings hollow when you truly believe that anyone who likes the letter R cannot be a pedophile.

I literally beat it for the first time last night!

First time I played was with with DLC but also tried to go in blind.

Surprise surprise I fucked it up (unknowingly doing DLC stuff early, wanted a different build,getting lost etc) and wound up restarting with a guide and did way too much grinding before the game actually ended so the last bosses (ate all the umbilical chords) were pretty easy

BUT I STILL LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT IT!

Started NG+ but am thinking of starting over fresh and doing a bloodtinge build, pretty much played the whole game without really utilizing stagger/guns and visceral attacks so there’s definitely more gameplay to explore.

Absolutely loved this game, and will probably pick up sekiro next time it goes on sale.

And then, I’ll finally play elden ring!

At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump became the next actual Jesus of Christianity in a few hundred years.

They certainly don’t give a shit about OG Jesus anymore, he has a bunch of stupid rules that new OJ Jesus would never endorse

There’s nothing wrong with wanting supporting evidence for claims, but when someone says something that’s very provable and common knowledge and you ask for proof - you become known as an idiot.

They do mention the incubation period for Rabies in the article can be up to two years, and they also mention it being found in seals starting in 2021.

You are correct that anyone bit recently may not be able to 100% confirm no transmission, but if no one bitten since 2021 has had Rabies from seal bites its still an accurate assessment.

Especially if people are bitten in (salt) water. Rabies spreads via saliva which is likely going to have a significantly smaller viral load if the bites happen in ocean water (also mentioned as a possible reason for low/no infection)

Gotta disagree about the Mist.

The monsters absolutely were the point, and something like a storm/flood/fire wouldn’t flip that many people to religious human sacrifice or electing a religious leader to decide who gets sacrificed within 3 days. (the reason she was being believed was also monster related)

The monsters are what caused panic, fear, loss of humanity, and desperation. The movie makes a point to illustrate this when the generator stops working - the people needed something they could understand, and resolve, and refused to acknowledge monsters would be possible until they see part of one and some flip from impossible to act of god/devil, which doesn’t really happen with fire or rain or snow.

The variety, size, and mysterious origins of the monsters are absolutely the centerpiece and couldn’t be replaced by any natural disaster, as the whole point was how unnatural everything became.

I would say that Prey isn’t so much a monster movie as a movie with an ‘ugly’ powerful humanoid. I would definitely put “The Thing” on this list, but it’s not exactly modern.
