Y’all are a bunch of lizard people, anon gets it. The sun is literally trying to kill you.

Did you read the whole article? It is essentially saying what you are saying.

And if we’ve learned anything from the past four decades, cheaper loans have only helped drive prices higher.

… which will make it marginally cheaper to borrow and hence temporarily improve affordability. Unfortunately, that could be enough to lure in more buyers, which will push prices higher

Given we’re not building anywhere near enough dwellings to house our rapidly expanding population, real estate is likely to continue rising. Add to that the tax incentives that favour investors, and any interest rate cuts are likely to only deliver a temporary respite to those looking for a first home.

But that rising wealth is likely to be concentrated in ever-fewer hands in the future.

This is obviously not real.

You mean my clan in Battlefield 1942 wing riding on the Bomber to drop onto the far flag on Bocage was historically accurate?!

Kings early books are seminal and iconic. Carrie, Salem’s Lot, The Shining, Pet Semetary and Misery are all brilliant and some of the most influential books in modern fiction.

Thanks for this nuanced and well considered comment.

Nah I’ve made my peace with it, I don’t let it bother me (mostly). I only posted here because I’m super bored at work. I used to be mad about the ongoing death of quality media but I now I mostly don’t even pay attention.

I’m just doing the math.

Statistically speaking… it’s going to suck.

I actually think this is bringing an enormous amount of attention to the issue, especially once this group goes to court/jail for it. Where else should this energy be spent? This isn’t a new issue and it’s only got worse over time. I think extreme measures are warranted.

This movement isn’t suggesting we do away with regulation. It is providing options for people who literally have NO access to life changing medication because of the for-profit pharmaceutical industry.

How simple minded do you have to be to develop a fetish just because the internet told you to.

Not sure if it got nerfed, I haven’t played in a while. The throwing hammer didn’t have great range but usually enough to throw it from outside of an enemy’s aggro range. And the best thing about it was that with a fully charged throw it would knock down a lot of enemies, it was amazing to initiate combat with a knockdown from range and then run in and smash them.

It actually has a really long learning curve, if you didn’t skate as a kid it will take you a long time to even be comfortable rolling around, let alone doing anything more. Kids have an infinite amount of time to practice and can take their boards with them basically everywhere, adults don’t have the same luxury.

And the other part is, you will get injured. You might get lucky and be fine, or you might get unlucky and fuck your knee or ankle or wrist or collarbone for months or life.

It’s a young person’s hobby. If you’re really keen then go for it, but if its an idle curiosity I think there are other things that you’d find more satisfying.

I ran dual greathammers with this and the smith’s hammer that you can throw. One of the most fun builds I’ve ever played, insane damage and surprisingly fast for such a heavy build.

Why are you answering if you don’t know.

Maybe I should start one, I’ll call it Things I Learned From 35 Years of Nihilistic Hedonism.

In terms of impacting your life, weed is an addictive drug like meth or coke. It doesn’t have the physical addictive impact of those drugs (i.e. you don’t go into physical withdrawals) but it can have large impacts on your psychology and day to day to life. For a lot of people it is a massive demotivator and will prevent you from achieving the things you want out of life.

Treat it like an addictive drug. You have a problem, take strong actions to treat it. The good news is that it is much easier to get off than other drugs that have a physical addiction. If you get through 2 or 3 days without smoking the strong urge to smoke should fade. Get rid of your weed, don’t have any in the house when you’re trying to stop. Tell your friends that smoke that you’re trying to stop and not to give you any or smoke around you. Once you’ve gone a a few days without smoking you’ll be shocked how much less the urge is there. Go without for 2 weeks before you even think about smoking again, just to prove to yourself that you can do it.

But it’s very easy to start again, so make some rules around when you allow yourself to smoke. Only use it as a reward for getting stuff done that day. Never smoke 2 days in a row. Every time you go to smoke, tell yourself out loud “I will not achieve any of my goals today”.
