There were certain parts of my dad's family I had concerns about, they're a lot more conservative than mom's side. Dad himself I was unsure about even, but they all really seemed accepting so that was a good surprise.

I'm making it happen. My twitter leaked out to a friend of my sister and well 2 weeks of a gossipy family later I'm publicly out as Transgender. Its a huge sigh of relief for me really and I wish I'd done it sooner, as all of my family and friends have been great so far. Trying to book a hormone assessment soon which my mother is going to help pay for, and my step-sister knows someone who does Laser really cheap so I'm all over that.

Yah, agents of SHIELD got enjoyable once WInter Soldier hit and the big plot twister that revealed Huge gamechanger for the show, but they were kind of put in a situation where they had to wait for that movie to happen. Also Bill Paxton is in most episodes of the back-half of that season and Kyle MacLachlan and Lucy Lawless are becoming recurring characters this season. I am hopeful.

For the longest time I insisted LOMA games were all terrible because they were all evolved from Warcraft 3 which was a huge disappointment to me, a WC2 fan. I was pretty rancorous about it for ages. And then I downloaded DOTA 2 to spectate and maybe get some idtems sometime before The International this year and got hooked. People are really good at establishing boundaries they ABSOLUTELY HATE.

I THOUGHT it felt familiar, especially the way the hands were moving on the wheel in first person. I drove Detroit to Seattle and then down the west coast before bed.

If I remember right, Worlds were also the company that was suing every MMO ever made because they had a dubious patent on server-client interactions for games. With Oculus all I really want is the next generation Second Life that is currently in development

The Crew is pretty alright but man is it ever one of THOSE Ubisoft games. Second mission in and I'm finding a tower to update my map

So the Fine Young Capitalists guy offered something of a peace treaty. Not a great one but its a thing. http://www.thefineyoungcapitalists.com/PeaceTreaty

Just a reminder that baldy is literally a domestic violence creep who went to court for beating his ex and got away with it with a self-defence plea. No denial he did it, and has since tweeted ~jokes~ about beating women basically daily. There is no amount of mockery for this festering turd on canada's ass that is too much.

"He punched that moon guy in the fucking face" is a great phrase.

I deeply regretted the time I took to play Watchdogs, the story didn't pay off at all and Aiden was basically a non-character despite it all being based on his pathos. Really weird. He is condemned to the same abyss as Connor the assassin for the sequel it sounds like but why would I even play that. I'd love to be proved wrong and have a vastly superior second game like they did with AC, but man, not feeling hopeful. Still going to play the shit out of Far Cry 4 and hope it isn't TOO racist.

Frustrated right now. Vancouver is a great place for trans resources..but only if you're a city resident. Suburbs are excluded from all the things run by the 'Vancouver Coastal Health Authority' as far as I can tell :< Trying to figure out what's available in my particular suburb is a pain, they don't seem to have a great website like the Trans Health program at VCH

It's not gaming but Joss Whedon will surely do right? This is so satisfying, watching nerds heads explode at the audacity of someone to not hate women

I dunno, it's a pretty far stretch from Investment to Patreon in my mind. Should they just start disclosing everything they like at the end of every article. (Full Disclosure: this poster was watching Mighty Morphin Power Rangers on Netflix at the time of writing, something she pay $10 a month for)

Shit I guess this thing is busted wide open I am ashamed of video games

I read this thread name as Nerdland welp that is my contribution as I am a poor kid in Canada .

But Kim Kardashian: Hollywood was made by a corporation, Glu Mobile. Kim just gave them a license to her name rights and my understanding is they reskinned an existing hollywood game!

And one of those guys? Went to court for beating his girlfriend. The right wing Alberta judge let him off on Self Defense, but he definitely beat her. Lovely.

They don't goof around as much but an old schoolmate of mine hosts the fairly new cast Up Up Down Down. His partner on the show worked at Radical from the DOS days right up to before Prototype 2 so he has a ton of knowledge, and they have a lot of really good developer guests on as well. A bit of an Apple slant at times (Allen used to work for them and they are iOS-primary developers in their current dayjob) but its not too bad most of the time. http://www.upup.fm/

Dark Dungeons is the shit. $5 well spent for a DRM free HD download of a sweet movie adaptation of bad Christian anti-d&d comics It is played straight for the most part with a few dialogue references (something about attacking gazebos at one point, for example), but with really hammy performances all around.

So I've been signed up a while but didn't really post. I've had an account before that was equally underused but I feel like with recent extremism in gaming communities the Idle Forums would be a cool place to chill. I've had a few questions read on the cast over the last year or so under my male birth name but am coming out as trans so you can guess why I don't feel SUPER comfortable in places where that shit gets mocked a lot (4chan, reddit, sadly now Something Awful). Anyway I'm out in Vancouver Canada and I've babbled enough. Peace. Also have this weird thing: http://www.amazon.com/Once-Lifetime-Go-Board-Single/dp/B00CQZ8D8I/ref=sr_1_2?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1405078119&sr=1-2# It's a Go Board that has been made over 20 years using rare wood that takes 10 years to dry. $100,000

Might try out a Rift finally at the PNE, part of the Game of Thrones exhibition. I am ready to fall off the Wall. (And then get PinkEye)

Browsing Itch.io is a great way to find stuff. I've been playing a few things (like Idle Friend Brendon Chung's Expat) that I found browsing there.
