    Torties are my favorite. You perfectly described my little one, who passed away last year.

    That was an annoying part of the quest as well, I remember putting it down twice over an afternoon. Similar to failing in the underground pass... I am currently working through the elven quest line :)

    Nah totally! Which is why I said I knew I was taking it further than others, but also that it's totally okay to just bounce off of someone else's personality for whatever reason! Voicing my clearly unpopular opinion is still good though and I appreciate everyone who made a comment.

    If others enjoy him, then I'm okay with that, I just don't need to watch :)

    I typically do not consume his media, especially over the last couple years.

    I think it's maybe that instead of feeling brought along with his analysis of various subjects, the information feels handed down in his voice and word choice?

    Again, these are my reflections and I only mentioned that personally I don't mesh with his persona. I'm not looking to be convinced otherwise. Unless I meet him in person to have my mind changed, I suspect this will remain.

    Nope, I get on great with the background of his views and am usually interested in the topics he brings up but it's the presentation of the topics that is grating.

    It's like he has an attitude that his world view/intelligence is superior to others and that he is deigning to gift us with special knowledge. I am likely taking this slightly further than anyone else feels, but I get a weird vibe that his main motive isn't educating others, it's making sure you know he knew the information first?

    His time on jet lag was unbearable, I couldn't watch it.

    I must be the only person that finds him very grating, I can't describe it.

    My wife and her best friend have been Taylor swift fans for over a decade, have gone to multiple concerts, they livestream album releases together and have plenty of time spent on Taylor/Taylor-related things. I have watched their interest slow down heavily since even before the Eras tour. I agree with many points in this article and didn't see any bashing or copium.

    For many people, Taylor is exactly who she needs to be. For others, they are growing out of her or growing away from her. I don't really have any actual comment on this article except that her music is definitely an art form, but I just think her reality is a bit constructed to serve herself at this point.

    Old School RuneScape.

    I've had an account since OSRS came out again in 2013, but only about 9-10 days total played in that time. I have also followed the content for years and years, love the Deadman series and Leagues but never really put my own energy into playing properly.

    Have just completed base 75 combat stats, finished recipe for disaster and am enjoying sailing now. I have got my other levels to a base 50, but I will work towards base 80 combat and begin bossing properly. There is so much new content and it's a little overwhelming!

    I'm still def a noob but that's okay!

    Easiest way to go to Antarctica is to apply for work there! I did 52 days last season surveying for the upgrades to the wind farm on Ross Island.

    Gracula works great and I also recommend the Croc Chop. For singular veg, a knife is faster but for multiple items, it's an amazing time saver. Plus how great is a crocodile in your kitchen!
