SWTOR. I did a whole new build so I could play it.

The 7 hour drive I had last week included one stop for gas, but that's it. We usually refer to the amount of time the gps says it will take.

Pay off my mortgage, invest it and live off the interest, and spend the rest of my life traveling with my wife

Shit when I bought my pistol it friggin came WITH a trigger lock.

I'm the opposite. I live in the midwestern US so when it's hot, it's also humid. If my room is above 72F I can't even sleep, I just sweat right through the sheets. On the other hand, when it's 40F out, I'll open my windows and sleep in my boxers.

I'm 34 (male) and my brother is 31. He's my best friend (besides my wife) but he moved like 10 hours away so we try to fly a couple of times a year to hang out. We text every day multiple times.

Yep I live in Missouri, albeit a very blue section (St. Louis) and I know the hicks in the rural parts want people like me to leave, but fuck them, not gonna, just gonna stay here and fight it out.

What Remains of Edith Finch. It's not horror at all but you're the last person alive in your family, exploring your childhood home, which is a crazy house with tons of weird add-ons and secret passages, exploring how your family members died. Mental illness, insane unlucky accidents, all that. It's a really truly excellent game. It's unsettling in a way that keeps you on edge without ever being actually afraid

So tonight is my third night at this hotel. It's amazing, seriously. High quality, amazing rainfall marble shower, a great hotel bar with bartenders who actually know how to make a proper Old Fashioned, everything. This worked out very well and I'm going to immediately book them for next year's trip when I get home. Also the TV comes up out of the footboard of the bed and that alone deserves some points.

MLB The Show and Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2018, co-op with my friends). I play them both every Friday night and have hundreds of hours in each.

Lol no, I'm quite happy being married to a real woman. Even before I was married, dating was never so hard that I'd replace it with a sexbot. Younger me probably would have had one for when I was home alone and bored, but not to replace real women.

I waited until this morning because I needed to find a replacement first. Pretty much every hotel within an hours drive of the track is booked solid most years. I would have canceled regardless most likely, and just gone back to doing a campsite at the track but I was hoping to find something better which I definitely did.

Same thing as Lemmy, just a different site but it's federated as well. Lemmy can see kbin content and we can see Lemmy content. I'm replying from kbin right now.

My friends couldn't even figure out Reddit. Most are on discord and that's pretty much it.

Super cool and makes me want to get back into EVE. Don't do it don't do it

Same deal for me, I spent about 550 on an inspection and that let to me being credited 8,500 bucks at closing.

I have Firefox set to automatically do all that whenever I close my browser but it's still somewhat of an issue on kbin. Not enough to bother me but it happens.

Just kbin and discord, I have no other social media.

Funny that this thread hit my feed last night. I don't have a special story to tell, but every summer my buddy and I go to Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin to Road America to watch some racing. We used to camp but we're in our mid thirties now so I'm a bit over sleeping outside in the summer. We've stayed in some cheap hotels before because that's really all my buddy can afford. No big deal, don't wanna break the bank for him so I'm down staying in a subpar hotel.

Cue me reading this thread last night and remembering I booked at the Super 8 Motel in Sheboygan. I go back to my booking and look at the reviews. Reports of bed bugs, holes in the walls, broken AC, ground level windows without locks, all that. Also reports of sketchy people hanging out in the parking lot all hours of the night, drinking and yelling. I find a slightly better place nearby but not that much better. Then I decided to expand my search radius to include Fond Du Loc. I find a place that looks fancy as fuck with an average review score of 9.4/10 on Hotels.com called the Hotel Retlaw. It's $20 more each per night (4 night stay).

At this point I have 3 hours left to cancel my Super 8 Motel reservation before I can't get a refund. I call my buddy, send him a link to the Hotel Retlaw, and said dude, I will cover the difference for you ($80 extra each if you are down for me to switch it up). He agrees immediately, I cancel the reservations at the shit box motel and book these. I'm out an extra $160 total but that's SO worth it for a nice place to stay, especially when we're outside sweating all day. The whole weekend ticket is only $160 so it's not an expensive vacation.

I leave tomorrow morning so I'll report back about it if I remember, but if you read all this, look up those two places and tell me how different they look for an insignificant price increase. I have a feeling if I didn't read this thread and go search again, I'd be posting here after this weekend about getting bed bugs or some shit.

Very exciting! I don't have much else to add but I'm loving kbin and I'm currently posting from the Artemis app beta.
