I know we’re talking audiophiles here but the budget option is £350!

The expanse is so good. The audiobooks are really well done. The latter books aren’t as good as the first few but I still really enjoyed them and the series ends well.

I thought the TV series of it was also excellent, really good casting and they did a great job with the space combat too.

I’m using boost, you can add filters to everything you’ve subscribed to.

I’ve run a small campaign of mother ship and a one shot. I didn’t use any visual aids other than a map of the space station as a handout. No issues whatsoever so it should be totally fine to run theatre or the mind.

If your dog is doing things you don’t want them to, restrict their access to the things you don’t want the dog getting. Maybe shut her in one room rather than give access to the whole house for example.

I suspect you’re getting downvoted because the guy in your picture is a tool.

Unfortunately I don’t know enough about US based finances to have any useful advice for you.

We use the CAGE questions in the UK as a quick screening tool.

Have you ever felt the need to Cut down on your alcohol intake? Have people Annoyed you by criticizing your drinking? Have you ever felt Guilty about drinking? Have you ever needed an Eye opener (drink first thing in the morning)?

Yes to two or more indicates problem drinking and probably alcoholism.

Other factors are drinking every day, drinking more than a few units in one go regularly, drinking to black out drunk, causing damage to yourself or others.

We spent 2 hours doing CPR on a lady who worked in our hospital, while her husband watched and cried. She was young and the cardiac arrest was unexpected so we tried everything we could. Despite all our efforts we didn’t manage to get her back. CPR is not like it looks in movies and shows, it rarely works and is brutal on the person who’s died. CPR is physically exhausting to perform, generally you rotate so you’re only doing about 1-2 minutes at a time but even with breaks it’s still very hard work. Add on the emotional shock of an unexpected death and supporting a grieving partner, it was a naff day. One of the worst parts is you’ve got to go back on the floor afterwards and carry on like it’s normal.

Totally agree, it’s just playing ring around the rosie until you manage to get the monster/ player in the right space, there’s no tools available and no where else to go if your struggling to get past an area.

I put it in safe mode and didn’t look back until I finished it. The game is easily one of my favourite video game stories.

Really looking forward to the update post from OP about the ending.

Was scrolling through to see if this was posted yet. Such a hard game, emotionally and mechanically. I’ve never managed to get very far through it before everything goes wrong and my characters start dying horribly (Which is entirely the point).

It’s a really good portrayal of the civilian toll of war I think.

Anywhere you can buy food here you can probably get alcohol. Corner shops, petrol stations, supermarkets all have booze.

In the UK we measured alcohol in units the recommended limit being 14/ week. Spirits like vodka are served in 1 unit = 25ml. So their low to medium drinking is already more than the UK national recommendation by 4 drinks and you’d be getting advice on how to reduce your drinking by a Dr. Though that 450ml/week is real easy to get to that’s one vodka and coke per day if your free pouring rather than measuring. Many lay people wouldn’t consider that a problem at all.

Admittedly we do have a fairly problematic relationship with alcohol in this country.

Definitely agree with your take to make booze harder to get and more highly taxed like smoking. At least the younger generations seem to not be drinking so much.

I really enjoyed it, have you started getting the upgrade paths for the pistol yet? Love that feature, it kept the iconic pistol relevant for the whole game.

This is an awesome tool. Love the British Heart Foundation.

Everyone should know CPR and the recovery position.

We usually describe them as mood stabilisers, they don’t make you feel happy but they make you more able to deal with the hard stuff.

Reading this my main thought is you sound a lot like Henry Cavil, keep letting the nerd cred shine. People can be dicks, you probably got unlucky with the first response being from the ass hat then everyone else not having the guts to say that sounds cool. It’s empowering to own your nerdary, anyone who has a problem with your hobbies isn’t someone you need to worry about the opinion of. Keep being awesome.

Maybe I’m thinking of one of the other black Knight weapons. Haven’t played ds1 in a long while now.

I mean this feels like it should be illegal. Another reason to not buy Ubisoft games I guess.

Did you get real lucky on that halberd dropping? I remember one of my Dex builds switching to strength quite quickly after finding one of those.

Last game was X4 foundations. So it entirely depends on if I get my spaceship or not. If yes then the hunt is a non issue, just take off and leave. If not I’m pretty sure my dude is screwed. He’s got a spacesuit with a little laser and a bomb launcher with 2 shots, probably wouldn’t get very far in Yarnham.
