I can’t wait to see what justifications all the sports writers use this week to explain how this Bears win doesn’t actually count…like they have been doing all year.

This is the most relaxed I have been as a Bears fan all season…purely because I fully expect them to lose this game.
I am very hopeful for a nice holiday surprise though

I see so many people with confusion as to why games are doing so poorly....or movies as well.
It's because the economy sucks. Entertainment dollars are the first thing people cut when budgeting. People can't afford entertainment with groceries/bills skyrocketing.

Been a busy couple of days for me.
Moved from Chicago to Dallas 3 days ago
Bought a car today (since Dallas is not a walkable city)
Start new job tomorrow

My long nightmare is over.
After over a year out of work, I’ve landed a job and start the 9th of June, my bday.

This weeks batch of Andor episodes are the greatest Star Wars content ever made.
A high point for an already excellent show.
The world building and character development for this series puts everything else in the franchise to shame

Got 2/8 Mythic last night.
I changed raid teams this season, going to one who only raids 4 hours a week and I really don’t feel any further behind than I typically would be at this point.
The team I left just got 3/8 Mythic last night, and they raid 6 more hours a week, so not far behind at all

I really hate interviews where they ask how you would handle hypothetical projects and it’s clear they are looking for a specific answer.
They are good for seeing how you think, but terrible for gauging technical skill

For the past few months of my unemployment, it's been on like 2 week cycles.
- A week of multiple interviews
- A week of rejections
This is an interviews week (just finished my second of 4 scheduled so far), and like they have all been the past year, they have seemed to go well.

I saw the kill of every boss in race to world first…except Gallywix
The funny thing is, I wasn’t watching it the whole time. I just happened to guess well and turn it on just as the pull for each boss kill was happening.
I didn’t expect Gallywix to fall till tomorrow so didn’t pull it up today

Got my Zekvir solo kill using my Evoker, this was only my 2nd day of making attempts on it.
The difficulty came down to Brann not doing stupid shit, like tossing potions nowhere near me, or dying. The mechanics themselves weren't difficult at all. Probably even easier on a class with short CD kick

It’s sad to say that going to my grandfathers funeral last week was a relaxing reprieve. That’s how shitty the world is right now. A funeral was less devastating.

Just got the word that my Grandpa just passed away. The last of my grandparents is no more.
Not looking forward to funeral. I always feel awkward at them. Everyone sobbing except me. The "stop your crying or I'll give you something to cry about" from my childhood worked too well.

The problem is that excepting a very minute amount of folks like yourself…the core of Democrats are responding to the events happening over a week after they happen.
They talk about things of far less import and worry about next election…when elections won’t happen again if they don’t step up now

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.
Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

Good changes…for M+ players
The problem is that as gearing becomes even easier outside of raiding, the drive for people to raid goes down.
Gear drives everything and people will flock to the route that gives them best gear for lowest difficulty. Organizing 5 man always easier than 20 man

The Section 31 “movie” feels more like they made a pilot episode for a show…and then decided to pass on the show but didn’t want to waste the work that was done.
Since they originally announced a show, I have a feeling that is exactly what happened.

I need one of those weird German words for specific feelings.
The feeling is abject horror and disgust at what’s being done while simultaneously having overwhelming satisfaction that the people who voted for it are getting exactly what they deserve

I’ve constantly been told that the massive amount of data taken on me online is for advertising purposes…..so why does every ad served to me from streaming services have no relevance to me?
Drug ads for diseases I don’t have or had, ads for baby supplies and feminine products, and ads in Spanish.

At times when I rewatch old Xfiles it always amuses me how Scully, the one presented at the rational scientist, is the least scientific of the pair. She regularly dismisses things she witnesses directly, and dismisses all theories if they don't already exist. The opposite of scientific curiosity

Had 3 interviews that all went really well and that I felt great about today....
So, I fully expect 3 rejections in the next week since that is just how the job market has been as of late

One thing that I’ve noticed over time is that whatever the MCU is planning to introduce soon, the Unlimited app is updated with back issues of old comics about those characters
I bring this up because currently the app is adding old issues of Nightstalkers and Ka-Zar
