Who would benefit here, big Conch?

I’ve actually tried to live by the opposite. I wouldn’t buy a house with a full bladder, but I think it improves the quality of snap decision making.

A friend and I used to track our Overwatch ranked results based on how badly we needed to pee. It wasn’t very useful data, but it was funny.

I guess I’m one of them. I’ve never used LaTeX, but I don’t know how else I’d pronounce that.

Honestly if you don’t have a ton of other options, I don’t hate this. I always wanted to get several super thin flatscreens and set them up playing 24/7 nature livestreams from different sources. It would be like gazing out portals to different parts of nature.

Sure, being out in nature would be better, but it’s better than blank walls and parking lots.

There are a lot of good mobile games these days, but I’ve yet to find one I like that can be played in portrait view. I don’t enjoy holding my phone sideways. If they could figure out how to let me enjoy Balatro or Slay the Spire with one hand, I’m investing.

-Edit So grateful for all the recommendations. Keep them coming!

I’ve been thinking about this recently while playing Hades 2. I bet it’s a memory thing. Much easier to remember your potion recipe if it’s rhymes and has a good meter. “Newt’s eye” works fine in a list, but “Eye of Newt” scans better in a given situation, for example.

My cat’s main redeeming feature is that I can slide my legs under her entirely to readjust positions and sometimes she doesn’t even look at me. Try to touch her, on the other hand, and it’s death.

My dog behaves like the cat in this meme.
