    My banana ice cream looks a little bit like feces, but hey, what ice cream doesn't? Super tasty though. Made entirely of bananas, cinnamon, and unsweetened cocao powder.

    It really does have the exact same texture as ice cream. Like, I feel guilty about eating it right now.

    Still waiting on governor walker to pass a law creating jobs or do something with education that can't be described with the word "gutting'

    um the gutting is how he creates jobs duh

    see if we fire public sector employees that frees up that money for private sector to pay people

    because there's a finite amount of money and things that can be done for money and if we employ someone that's a real job being lost somewhere, maybe 2 because they could hire 2 people for half as much

    which is why we cannot end slavery because there aren't 3.9 million job openings

    I mean, if the problem was people overspending or buying junk food, the obvious solution would be more education before resorting to drastic measures.

    I appreciated this.
    I am comforted by Richard Dawkins’ theory of memes. Those are mental units: thoughts, ideas, gestures, notions, songs, beliefs, rhymes, ideals, teachings, sayings, phrases, clichés that move from mind to mind as genes move from body to body. After a lifetime of writing, teaching, broadcasting and telling too many jokes, I will leave behind more memes than many. They will all also eventually die, but so it goes. - Roger Ebert, I Do Not Fear Death

    The combat seems kind of boring considering that combat is pretty much 90 percent of what you will be doing. Then again, that is my complaint for pretty much every MMO I have played.

    I don't think anyone established that people on SNAP were overspending on junk food

    After all you probably buy less soda on food stamps in a typical family than a lower middle class family that is not on assistance buys

    If the problem is "poor people are too fat" it should be dealt with on a general level not on a "oh look we can do anything to the food stamps people because fuck them nobody is gonna stand up for em"

    I think Echo said it best. Standard MMO but the combat is basically very MOBA-esque. All of your actions can be controlled with buttons radiating off of WASD and your mouse. Twitchy, real time-ish combat.

    I've played it about an hour yesterday after downloading it. I wasn't supposed to start playing as late as I did.

    It's got a good basic flow to it as far as combat goes.

    Well, it is in a rather cold and inhospitable region north of the sword coast, and used to be warmed by lava flows and hot springs under the city, making it hospitable any time of the year, thus deserving the name Lord Nasher gave it so long ago.

    Then when 4th edition happened I guess the volcano kind of erupted and demon hellgates opened and the whole place went to shit or something.

    Right now it seems a little of "poor people are fat" and "poor people spend too much money on healthy food".

    So

    You can't really have it both ways.

    they already have tower capture. If they just turned them into turrets, stuck a jungle in between you'd have moba.

    I vastly prefer offering additional food stamp money on specific healthy items

    By making it an incentive rather than a penalty it makes retailers more likely to implement any required changes as opposed to simple not accepting SNAP (again, not a concern for a Wal-Mart, but Joe's corner store? it really is, and wisconsin has tens or hundreds of thousands of rural poor people)

    I hope Rick Scott doesn't find out I've been using food stamps to buy fresh vegetables, whole wheat bread, brown rice, and beans.

    Someone should really come make sure I'm only getting maltomeal cereals, kraft dinner, and wonder bread.

    Last summer, it was cheaper per pound for my brother to buy lobster then ground beef if he got the lobster from the local fish market. That's because he lives near the coast and the efforts to rebuild the lobster beds have been paying off in spades so there was a glut at the docks.
