Everything on this instance is fantasy. So much so that I legitimately thought it was a fantasy instance for awhile. I find any and all non-fantasy discussion to be really refreshing.

What are you specifically enjoying about TKaM?

Haven't watched the video yet but I'm guessing the reasons are:

  • Zoning - mixed use zoning and medium density housing are notoriously missing in the US.

  • Setbacks/Clear zones - Time and time again, US city planners have widened roads, straightened roads, and removed trees and such, catering towns and cities for driving, rather than building them for humans.

  • Parking

Tattar is unstoppable until proven otherwise. She looked a bit beatable for a round at EO but it didn't matter because she's so good she gave herself a 15 shot cushion. Insane level of play from her and if she stays healthy, she is a lock for Worlds

ISU lost 5 starters to gambling, 3 of which were potentially the 3 most valuable positions on the team. I really don't blame people for picking us to be in the basement.

I actually do think we'll be better than last year if our new OL coach can get the big guys in a good place. Our offense lives and dies by the Line.

Our defense has been top 3 in the conference every year since 2017, so no real concerns there. They'll keep us in enough games that if the offense can even be mediocre (a huge step up from last year), we could easily win 6 games. Even with the brutal schedule the Big 12 gave us.

No bookclubs for men around me. My guy friends don't read books, and all the women are in woman only bookclubs, or just exclusively read YA fantasy garbage that I'm not interested in.

I completely ignore ratings on Goodreads. If anything, a higher rating on Goodreads makes me less interested in it. Harry Potter 5 has a 4.5 rating on there, Heart of Darkness has a 3.5 and that's all I need to know.

That being said, if there's a book I'm interested, the reviews there can be helpful. I'll usually read one 5 star review. 2-3 one star reviews, and like 5 three star reviews.

I tend to read a lot of classics so I generally don't need to do a lot of vetting. If something is still relevant after decades/centuries, it's probably worth my time. And honestly, there are very few books I've hated (other than Walden, dear god was that one bad).

Tbh a good percentage of Americans would turn down a million dollars if it meant minorities didn't get it.

Monopoly can actually be a pretty quick game if you play by the rules. Which literally nobody does.

Boohoo. Your school sold out its athletes and history for more network revenue to go to billionaires and tv executives.

I have the Leaf 2 and would highly recommend. Works great, and is much better for your eyes. I use it every day.

If a trailer doesn't have gameplay you can throw it straight in the garbage. Thanks.
