    The old version of this mod has been out for a while already, but this one comes with lots of new content and can be installed independently from Skyrim as long as you own Skyrim classic or Legendary Edition on Steam.

    I thought I'd share this here, as it is practically a full blown RPG in its own right with very good production quality all-round, especially for being a free mod. One of the best stories I've seen in recent years.

    Modest Mouse is one of my favourite bands as well. I really dig the raw energy their early albums have. I can highly recommend the Modest Mouse cover album the band Iron Horse made: Bluegrass fits the songs weirdly well.

    Also you might want to give Karate, the band I mentioned in my other comment here, a listen - they feel very similar to Modest Mouse.

    Just to add another perspective: I have never experienced this the way you described. True, it might be unusual to go through older comments, but never have I seen a complaint about new comments...

    It's somewhat of an unspoken rule on Reddit that replying to a comment that's more than a day old is a faux pas. The conversation naturally settles within that period – or, less often, within two days. After that, the only appropriate thing is to either reference the conversation, or quote parts of the comments in relation to a similar issue in another post.

    Just to add another perspective: I have never experienced this the way you described. True, it might be unusual to go through older comments, but never have I seen a complaint about new comments in old threads. The worst thing that happened is nothing more coming out of a new comment, but I'd hardly describe that as a percieved faux pas. But I guess it depends heavily on the subreddit.

    I have been listening to the band Karate which has been my favourite artist for the past few months already. They have such a charming and unique sound - 90s punk/indie rock with jazz influences. Every album of theirs is good in a different way. Most of their songs make you listen to them over and over while they slowly grow on you. Sadly it's really hard to find a way to buy their albums (at least for a reasonable price and where I live).

    Another more recent discovery for me that I have been listening to is a German pop brass band called Moop Mama. Really fun and energetic songs that stay in your head.

    Thanks for the outline link.

    I think it's a good decision by the SPD and a step in the right (or rather left) direction. Let's hope it results in actions and not just talk, as the whole political landscape in Germany has been moving almost exclusively more to the right in terms of social wellfare structures and fair wages.
