I didn't know about console emulation for a long time

2019-06-19 23:14:03 UTC  

I saw someone at the library using ZSNES and got him to show me how to set it up

Got Gundam Wing Endless Duel, and that DBZ RPG

Thankfully my father was kinda techsavy so he knew about emus etc

2019-06-19 23:15:12 UTC

I actually built my first desktop computer around when I was 14 in the early 2000s. Basically, my parents got our family our first computer when I was around 10 and at first hired a tech guy to come to our house and teach our family computer things. I think he may have come to our house twice because I basically started quickly being my boomer parents' tech support.

Same, maybe a bit younger, but it was a FrankenPC made out of computers in the trash

My mom has never been tech savvy but my dad is

I consider myself a really good guy. I'm an ally and an advocate. I'm a father to two intelligent, creative, fantastic girls and I have a smart, funny, independent and strong wife. We are in an open marriage. She has a wonderful boyfriend named Tyrone who lives with us sometimes.

That said, I know I've done some things in the past that were inappropriate. I have said things that were offensive and made people uncomfortable, and I've made advances toward women that were not wanted and rebuked.

Our society is so riddled with toxic masculinity that many things that are not okay today were accepted behavior 15 - 20 years ago. They weren't okay then, but nobody spoke out about it. Many young men, myself included, learned this toxic crap and lived it.

We know better now, though. We know that anything that makes someone uncomfortable or compromises their bodily autonomy is not okay. I've had to personally work to factor these revelations into my words and my actions. I've adjusted my sense of humor and discarded old jokes and tropes. I'm more careful with my words and more aware of who I'm with in social settings. I try to tread softly now, and to be inoffensive and considerate. I teach my daughters that their bodies are their own, and anyone taking away that power in any way is doing something wrong. I respect my wife and her body in that same way. Hence the open marriage and Tyrone.

We men need to acknowledge that most of us have made these errors in the past, to varying degrees. Inappropriate compliments, for example, aren't the same as groping a sleeping woman, but both things are on the same spectrum of behavior and need to be corrected.

We need to own our mistakes and work to correct them. That's the only way this perverse culture will change. Men have to take ownership of their behavior, correct it,drink soy milk, eat plant based burgers and stand up to other men when they speak or act inappropriately.

way better news than some shitty minifgs and soynion sets.

2020-02-23 08:34:38 UTC  

bad news is, it'll probably be more expensive than a UCS set

2020-02-23 15:07:51 UTC  

Although to me the only lego theme worth a damn was Speed Champions before the witdh of the models increase. Granted, it adds more ability to make more realistic models of the cars, but it looks off when compared to the OG kits.

An epic lego stopmotion series is starting soon by a seriously talented new animator! Check out the trailer:

2020-03-23 22:01:55 UTC  

good quality?

2020-03-23 22:03:12 UTC  

if it was megabloks, I think we'd get the more articulate minifgs, like they do in their Halo and CoD lines

2020-03-23 22:04:21 UTC  

ah true

2020-03-23 22:04:24 UTC  

pretty decent for what it is.

2020-03-23 22:04:35 UTC  

yeah def. Lego doesnt have any real millitary stuff

2020-03-23 22:04:45 UTC  

although their realistic military stuff is only thing worth anything.

2020-03-23 22:04:58 UTC  

in terms of appearance and such.

2020-03-23 22:05:21 UTC  

and there is real LEGO military models out there, it's called Brickmania.

2020-03-23 22:07:11 UTC  

and even the official sets had some, if we count Indiana Jones line.

2020-03-23 22:08:22 UTC
