Just finished 100%ing Sea of Stars. The combat was fun, and the general story and game play is very much so a nod to Chrono Trigger. Would absolutely recommend if you enjoy that type of game.
Just last night I downloaded and am about an hour into Dave the Diver. So far the game loop seems interesting, but im hoping it doesn't just become a stacked chore game (so to speak).
I assumed it was to sarcastically "twist" there idols. Kind of like the "Jesus being a dick" memes.
Homeostasis is a giant catch-all term for normalizing things in or about the body. In this context, something foreign is introduced to the body (thorn or the tattoo ink) which is affecting the "normal"(equalibrium) state of the body. The body will then do its best to return to this equilibrium, and in these cases, that involves expelling (thorn) or slowly removing (dye) the objects from the body.
I'm going off of memory, but homeostasis also covers our body temperature and chemicals. It's why medical personnel can take blood and learn about issues; there is an expected range for everything to be in. Homeostasis is just that over-all term for "things should be this way". There are dozens of equalizing processes under the term "homeostasis".
I think the difference can be drawn in parallel to cigarettes: an unfiltered cigarette is worse than a filtered one for smoking. Both are obviously bad for you, but if you're stacking carcinogens and other health concerns, eventually you'll reach someone's breaking point. I don't think anyone is claiming alcohol is healthy, but I also don't think the response should be "it's already unhealthy, so this isn't won't stop anyone". Every risk associated decision we make adds to the statistics pool for whether we get sick. Mitigating that might actually worry someone enough to switch to a healthier (not healthy) form of alcohol consumption.
Full disclosure, I agree. I also don't think he's actually going to see jail time. My comment was more along the lines of what I think will happen: we will cut all of these deals to catch him, and then nothing will actually stick. I would give my left nut to see him be sentence and serve time. I'd give my right nut to see it carry the full weight his crimes actually should.
But see, here's the thing. They, like, provided us information so we can really ~~formally convict~~ Slam™️ the Republicans they conspired with. That'll show them they were on the wrong side of history this whole time! That has to be worth, idk like, 500 years in jail, right? Waaay better than actually sending literal traitors to our country to jail.
This week, it's been A Farewell to Arms by Machine Head. The song just builds into something incredible.
I think I kind of understand the term, but what does "hallucinations" in this context refer to? It seems like it might be fabricated unformation?
I live in Florida, surrounded by red and I'm from a red state/area. To be clear, I think it's PERFECTLY VALID to hold the thought "my money and stuff are mine and I should have a say who gets to use it". And to your point about democrats: yeah that's effectively what I mean. Universal health care and paying for college are publicly funded from....other people's money. Most Republicans I've talked to wish we had either or both, but balk when taxes are raised. They would rather be the ones to decide who gets a portion of their paycheck from an understandable hesitancy to have the government be the one to decide who gets the money. Republicans see that prudence as necessary, and most democrats I know see that as an unwillingness to contribute to the "greater good".
I think the defining difference is whether that sharing extends to just friends and family, or if it becomes more egalitarian and extends to everyone. From my experience, Republicans tend to stop at the former, and Democrats tend to stop at the latter. There is also usually differences in what they're willing to share to both parties, namely money.
I think that comment is saying the opposite of what you're saying
I wanted to go for an Adventure Time look and feel. Hopefully this hits the mark.
I'm generally a fan Swift's music, but I remember listening to this song and just thinking it was the feminine version of a white night incel. I get it's supposed to be the song "all of us" felt like when we were in middle school or high school watching a crush date someone, but anyone older should view the song as a "what not to do" song.
