  • You have no idea how much weed I possess. If it gets a human medicated or intoxicated, it’s not a waste to me. I keep spare mediocre weed on hand to give away for free sometimes I don’t like daytime THC, and I don’t smoke and drive, but my wife often wants or needs THC to be in crowded or busy public locations or events.



  • Yeah, if anyone has “replaced” TMG, it’s Diane Cluck. She’s my shaman, and while I never used that phrasing with John, TMG got me through some dark, hard times. Diane Cluck is definitely a better overall shaman, though. I’m gonna cook our decorative balcony pumpkin before it can go bad because she suggested it. She nourishes me mind, soul, and body x_x







  • BG3 is a huge exception. It’s more popular by far than most games of the sort. And still only two of the dozen gamers I work with has played any of it, and they are both done with it.

    all these gamers glowing about how great it is

    Where? If you mean online, yeah, online discussion and gaming publications focus on more complex games that more serious gamers are playing. There’s just more to say about them. And news sites are gonna pay more attention to exceptions to the norm like BG3. None of the many gamers in my life are talking about it. If you’re hearing about BG3 and other huge, complex games regularly, it’s because you are spending time in spaces where and with people who care about them. Because it’s not just everywhere.


  • Oh yeah I know that, it just seems like these type of games are super popular.

    I honestly think that’s just your circle. That does not describe the majority of the gamers I know or have known. I have always been in a minority for wanting to do math in my free time and have to find places online to discuss these games because usually nobody else in my life is playing them. Most of the people I know who played BG3 did so because it is popular, and they avoided as much of the math and homework as possible. And most of them are done with it.


  • There are tons of games that don’t require that sort of knowledge base or study investment. It’s a minority that do. But you’re on Lemmy. This is a self selected community of extra thoughtful nerds. This community is more likely to be excited about games with homework than your average gaming community. I do genuinely love the research part of complex games. I like crafting builds and planning battles. I loved both Divinity Original Sin games and will love BG3 when I get there.

    But sometimes I do just want a game for my hands to play while by brain takes a break. That’s why I spent most of the summer with Earth Defense Force 5, a 9/10 space insect exploding experience. Highly recommend it if you don’t want to fuck with the details.







  • The beans and rice in many taco bell offerings provide more nutrients than your average fast food burger or deep fried meat. The fiber and vitamins both make you feel better and more full longer. You also get spices and heat, which tend to make people feel full faster and provide some amount of nutrition. And it moves through your body faster, so you’re not bloated.


  • Zero calorie drinks and swap all your meat for beans. I’m not a femboy, but I’m a slim, healthy woman who eats Taco Bell at least once a week. It’s the only fast food I eat because it’s the only fast food with meaningful seasoning, and I can just go for beans to make it incredibly light. Taco Bell is the only fast food you should be considering when trying to lose weight.
