  1. The dogs just roam around the house and yard. The birds are each in their own cage on opposite sides of our living room. One rat is in a cage by himself in our computer room. The others are in separate cages in the living room. The dragons are in separate aquariums in the bedroom. My 4 female rats are kept separate from the males for obvious reasons. The dragons have to be kept separate because by nature they're solitary creatures. The two that I have were kept together when they were young by the people I got them from, and the female bit off part of the male's tail. That was when they decided that an extra aquarium was needed. One of my male rats is mean towards other rats, so we have to keep him separate. He's friendly to people. He's just really timid and shy.
  2. I've been writing more, and getting more involved with TST campaigns. I'm also learning German, as it's part of my heritage. I've also been looking for someone who can help me learn Scottish Gaelic, as Scottish Celt is the vast majority of my heritage, but so far I haven't found anyone. I'm willing to pay for lessons, but no one is taking me up on the offer. I can't afford any of the schools around here as they're like $1500 per semester. So I guess I'm just going to have to keep looking and hope I get lucky.
  3. My pitbull Lady, is entitled as hell. She doesn't ask for attention, she takes it. When she wants me she will just come and climb up on me. She will even use her nose to move my leg out of the way so she has room to climb up. My conure Apple, thinks I'm a jungle gym and climbs all over my head, usually hanging on my glasses and playing with my piercings. My dragons (Edgar and Lenore) love to run. They just run. Everywhere. They're like Forrest Gump on crack. The three chihuahuas bark at literally everything. If I fart in the bedroom with the door closed, rest assured they will bark. Then they act like big babies when they see either of us. My rats think they're monkeys. They climb on every single part of their enclosures, and even hang upside down from the top by their tails. 10 rats many of which think they're monkeys. My girl just got an animal that by its species is the most high strung and panicky creature on earth. A friggin parakeet. The damn thing flips out over EVERYTHING. It drives me nuts. I blink and it's losing its shit. That's 18 clinically insane creatures. I'm one camel away from being able to charge admission.
  4. If they were to do a hand held, then they would have to have every game on it either a DDL, or cartridge. I know the PSP had discs, but that was the main screw up for it. DDL's and carts run a lot better than the discs PSP had. But I don't see Xbox ever touching a cartridge. DDL is fine, but they would have to go into a whole new market alongside their home console. It didn't work for Game Gear, and wasn't the best for Gameboy so I wouldn't recommend they do it, and I absolutely don't see them doing it.
  5. I would love the rumors I've been hearing all year to be true and see Hatred get released on the Switch. I know it's not gonna happen, but a girl can dream can't she? Another that has been mentioned a couple times already is RDR2. That would be amazing to see released on Switch.
  6. If what I've heard all this time about Skyrim is true, then I'm concerned about the next Elder Scrolls game. Is Bethesda going to learn from Skyrim, or are they going to make the same, and possibly even more screw ups this time.
  7. I like the realism. It makes the game more captivating and helps me get drawn into another world and forget the real world for a while. I'm actually living in 1899 and just trying to survive with the rest of the gang. Doing some hunting, some killing, some fighting, and some fucking, it's all the same to me. I'm in another time and place. And it all feels much happier.
  8. I think one of the main problems is developers don't listen. If they see the $ sign on the game at all, they move forward with it, no matter how fucked up the game is. Sure that takes a hit to their reputation, but they think that as long a they make money, that they can handle it. But then you have to remember a little company called LJN. Look at what happened with them. A load of games that were considered to be some of the worst in gaming history, and they disappeared pretty quickly. If developers would look at that, and take a lesson from LJN, then maybe we would get games that aren't an anthill at release.
  9. Doesn't that defeat the purpose and remove the accomplishment factor in the game? Let's see, I can earn my XP and gain that level 50 status, or I can buy it for $5.
  10. If you want it to seem more realistic, keep a can of icing "handy" while you play.
  11. I've been wanting a life size replica of Squall's gunblade for a while. There's quite a few of them on eBay, but I never have the money to spare.
  12. Wanking Simulator Remothered: Broken Porcelain I have them both and quite frankly, enjoy them a lot. Wanking Simulator takes a little getting used to, and is comedy gold, but other than that is kinda useless. Remothered, is a great "creep" style game. If you're into horror or creepy games in general, I highly recommend it. Yes it's buggy, but no where near as buggy as the list makes it out to be.
  13. If I'm remembering it correctly, a blade is just about your best weapon. Or an easy draw quick fire handgun. It's been so damn long since I've played RDR Undead that I honestly don't remember much.
  14. Being a white woman, I grew up with "white privilege" so I can't really relate to a lot of things. Minorities (and I don't like using that word) face things that the white population will either never understand or never experience. For the most part. I'm the part of the population that is usually termed "white trash" because I grew up bottom of the barrel poor. I've experienced a few things that minorities have, but not everything. I don't know how it feels to be called a nigger because I'm not black. I don't know what it feels like to be called a wetback because I'm not Hispanic. I don't know what it feels like to be called a heeb because I'm not Jewish. I do know what it feels like to be called a cracker. I don't like it. The sad thing we have to realize is that racism will never end. It is part of the human psyche. Some can be cured of it. Some never feel it. Some support it 100%. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I've given a bit of insight to my upbringing. Well being taught racism from the moment I was born was a large part of it. Specifically towards black people. You all know the words that were common. Until a couple months ago, those words came out of my mouth more casually than "Hello" comes out of yours. I'm not even close to exaggerating. I learned it for 18 years. I unsuccessfully fought it for the next 20. Then something happened. I collect skulls. This is relevant. I have an ad on Craigslist looking for skulls to buy or trade for. I've gotten a few good ones that way. Well one day I got a reply to that ad. A woman, I'll call her Lauren (not her real name) was just saying that she thought it was neat that I collect, and that she has always liked skulls too. We got to talking back and forth a lot. Gossip mostly. She is mixed race. Her father is white and her mother is black. I don't know how she did it, but Lauren broke that racism. I can only guess that the Great Goddess sent her for that very purpose. Within a couple weeks of talking to her through text, I was over it. I even put Black Lives Matter on the back of my car, and ordered a few car window flags for the movement. Previously I would have added the word "don't" to that. My girl is still shocked, and so am I. Neither of us can figure out how she did it, but we're both over the moon that someone was finally able to pull my head out of my ass and end it. We're still great friends. We hit it off almost instantly. We text daily. I'm even going to her place for xmas. Lauren was a savior that brought me a chance at redemption. She ended the hate one racist felt. I just wish every racist could meet their own Lauren. I was lucky. Not all are.
  15. It's episodes 1-3. Phantom Menace, Attack Of The Clones, Revenge Of The Sith.
  16. Avatar is actually nothing more than a modern version of Dances With Wolves. The same basic story, just a different setting.
  17. I've spoken to @DC about submitting some reviews of classic games (NES, SNES, N64, etc.) but haven't yet, as I don't know if anyone here would even be interested in reading about some games they have most likely never even heard of. Not to mention that the games in question are a hell of a lot older than a lot of the members here.
  18. I haven't looked at eBay. The ones I have seen are on Craigslist.
  19. If someone was to do a review of RDR2 and only moved the story forward and did nothing else, they would be leaving out more than half the game. There are stranger missions, treasure hunts, challenges, crafting/upgrading, legendary animal hunting/fishing, 2 dozen horse breeds, about as many guns, and so much more. Leaving all that out would make the game come off as extremely boring, and do nothing but harm instead of be a fair review. I could write up a fair review right now, and put bias in, but state first that "this part is bias" and then move on to an unbiased review, as I have played the entire game, sans online. Hell now that I think of it, I may get to work on that today. Just so everyone knows, there WILL be spoilers, so if you haven't played it, but are wanting to, you will want to avoid my review.
  20. Also I play classic systems with physical copies of the games. Almost exclusively cartridges. So it would be extremely easy for me to buy a copy of a game that I already have if I didn't keep a list with me. I can't say that I have played Faxanadu or Solstice all that much, so I could easily forget that I have them and bring home another copy. If it was in a bundle that I bought I would have no problem. At the moment I'm sitting on 6 or 7 copies of SMB3 that I have accumulated through buying bundles. And almost as many NES consoles.
  21. They're going for $1k around here. I don't know where you live, but you're definitely getting extra screwed by these bastards.
  22. All I know is that a ring on each hand keeps everything balanced. The chakras are more in line, and the body is able to expel psychological toxins more easily. Which leads to more healthy days. Psychologically at least. But that can in turn to better physical health as well. Hematite has properties that are so beneficial that I feel everyone should in vest at least in a couple pieces they can carry in their pockets, a couple rings, or something to wear around the neck.
  23. I keep the list because I have so many games that half the time I forget what I have and buy multiple copies of the same game. For example, I ended up with 4 copies of Reckoning Kingdom Of Amalur because I kept forgetting that I had it. So I went through the systems that I regularly play and compiled a list. That way when I go game shopping, I can check my list when I come across a game I’m interested in to see if I already have it or not.
  24. Free speech is a thing of the past. We had it once, but now everyone is so pussy whipped and sensitive, that we can barely say we even have an opinion without people screaming at us. It doesn't matter what the opinion is or even relates to. I like tacos. There's some little bitch out there that will call me racist and that I can't eat tacos because I'm not Hispanic, I'm white. Hell I got blamed for something I didn't even do recently. Someone had painted the word "Lost" on a trump sign. I couldn't read it from where I was at the gas station so I drove over to it. It was apparently spray paint which is sloppy as hell. When I got back in my car, some asshole blocked me, told me he saw what I did, and was going to call the cops. I read the fucking sign. Apparently that's illegal now. This country is a piece of shit anymore. We're not allowed to think. We have to be carbon copy automatons, stripped of our individuality, stripped of independent thought, and sent to an indoctrination center to make corporations more powerful and more wealthy. Thinking is illegal. Speaking is illegal. Being human is illegal.
  25. How, exactly, are you going to ban opinions and individual thoughts? Racism is something that needs to end, but it's not in any way to ban opinions and thoughts, no matter how repugnant they are.
