Huh. I wanna say it's wild to claim people from Arizona and New Mexico have Midwestern accents, but I've only just realized I have no clue what the hell they do have. Midwestern accents, I guess?

And a boat on a river you have to cross, but you can only bring one of them with you each time you cross?

And look- people can pull off the skinny elf look but they can't pull off Orlando Bloom.

Hell, I've tried to do both. All it got me were some pants I can't return and a restraining order. C'est la vie, I guess.

Question: what if my Mass Effect ending color doesn't match my gay sex color? Should I be concerned?

So, to be able to transmit packets wirelessly, it needs a medium to communicate them over. If you stick it in the microwave for a while, it should begin to absorb the microwave radiation. Once it's full enough (minimum 20 minutes in microwave, recommend full hour if you have the time), it should then start emitting excess microwave radiation that your devices can pick up, and then you can check your e-mail.

Chocolate Eclair. Nice texture. Really scrapes the sides clean.

A vision of a future for America where everyone's included, everyone's represented, and everyone can join hands in friendship as one? Now that's Thinking Outside the Bun™.

"He lies about so many things! How the hell was I supposed to know he actually meant it this time?"

I can absolutely say I want to live in a castle rendered in early '90s CGI. Just..probably not this specific one.

When you only have so much meat to work with, it's vital to at least learn how to photograph it flatteringly.

I haven't bought into it or anything, but I followed the development for a while in the 2010s because I was really excited for what they showed.

Speaking personally, I just want a game that would let me feel immersed in a spacefaring future human civilization. I'm never gonna live to see that. So, I'd like a game where I can at least pretend.

EvE doesn't work for me. I'm not interested in spreadsheets, and I want to be able to fly my ship instead of just clicking to move (I assume that's still how it controls? I only played briefly in the 2000s)

Starfield is..Starfield. I just appreciate that they tried something, honestly. No Man's Sky seems pretty neat, although I don't really know what you do in that game outside of just collecting resources. I need to try it sometime.

Elite Dangerous is great. It comes the closest to scratching the itch. Zooming through the galaxy looking for different astral phenomena and sights to see is a really chill way to spend an afternoon. But, it only really gets so deep. The space legs (I mean, the Odyssey expansion) only do so much to make you feel present. Space stations and outposts really only consist of two or three different layouts of one big room with the same shops. Settlements mostly only exist to be mission objectives. You get 8 guns and 3 pistols to choose from. That's about it. Not super immersive once you step outside of your ship (personally speaking).

But, pretty much the main thing they've been trying to accomplish with Star Citizen is to make it the most immersive experience they can. It's right there in the name, isn't it? You get to play at a citizen of an interstellar civilization. That's the idea. I'm not sure if that's the reality.

So, yeah. Speaking personally, I've got a dream I'll never see realized, and (it feels like) no one stepping up to offer a proper simulation. I imagine a lot of folks are clinging to Star Citizen out of desperate hope, since there's not really a proper alternative if it ever goes away.

What the fuck? These assholes stole my catchphrase
