I still have a 1080 founder's edition and it holds 100+ fps at 2k on newer games still (BL4 as an exception)

Definitely was worth the investment all the way back in 2016

The way that "Protocol 3: Protect the Pilot" still hits me 😭

I think the bluesky feed is profiling me because it sees me as a chubby dude with a beard and thinks that I must be a bear that just wants to see penis

How do I tell the stupid robot that I am so fucking straight so it stops showing me penis, because "show me less like this" doesn't fucking work

I feel I have to once again reiterate to active duty folks that this doesn't make trump a hero or anything

Funding the military during a shutdown has been commonplace for most of our lives, and this man and the house majority leader are the reason your paycheck was even under threat

Forbes @forbes.com · 6d

Trump said Saturday the White House has “identified the funds” to ensure troops receive their paychecks on Oct. 15.

The MVP system in Destiny Rising must have been inspired by the electoral college because how tf do I outperform in every metric and not get MVP?

End activity screen in Destiny Rising. Shows me having higher damage, healing, and damage taken than everyone in the fireteam, but the person with 2nd most on those metrics somehow got MVP

The batshit insane part is that him making statements like this make people who literally live around I-205 near Portland believe that downtown is burning to the ground

Like the fact this shit is duping Oregonians makes me feel fucking insane

Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

I love Blizzard screwing up and giving everybody the mage tower bear appearances.
Means I can make Pooh the bear Druid reach his true potential 😤

If only I could put shirts on in my bear form

I fear Blizzard may have cooked with Legion Remix

Like even though I’ve played this campaign like 20 times, the artifact buffs are making it feel so much smoother and I’m having a lot of fun

Do you think Trump has such an issue with Chicago because he's been there and genuinely thinks they're part of the "coastal elites" he's always railing on about, because clearly, it's right next to an ocean?

This is truly a shame because while yes there are weakauras that exist to make content trivial, my entire UI runs off my own built weakaura sets, and I simply do not trust Blizzard to be able to provide a system that replicates my current experience with the game.

This just may ruin WoW for me.

If military personnel are deployed to Portland, it feels like a great time to remind the inevitable protestors that public nudity is legal in Portland and will likely break their brains a little

After several weeks of various real life events and Borderlands 4 stopping guild raid nights, we finally got Heroic Dimensius down for AOTC on Manaforge Omega! 🙌

And of course it's the first time I got to watch a guild AOTC kill from the floor 😅 #warcraft #thewarwithin #wowsky #wow #worldofwarcraft
