  1. this mom has one request: stop giving my kid junk!

    I think she bought it when she went back to visit family in Thailand. But I still really loved that she thought to get me a gift. As I totally wasn't helping her with the expectation she would get me something in return. She just asked for help and I was able to help her, so I did. I still think...

  2. Are video games art?

    They definitely have the potential to be art, but whether or not they are will come down a lot to the philosophy underpinning their development process. I would not acknowledge games that are designed to promote microtransactions as art, nor those which are simply being developed by the numbers...

  3. this mom has one request: stop giving my kid junk!

    Yeah, I tend to give the benefit of the doubt too. I imagine a lot of the time when people are giving gifts they are putting thought into it. Actually I think that rule can be quite effective. Years ago a friend got me a gift as a token of appreciation for helping her with her assignments. It...

  4. Do you actively post on social media?

    Fair enough, it is a pretty vast field though so I wouldn't be surprised if you did still engage with some areas of it. Although I tend to see politics in almost everything now. :LOL::LOL:

  5. What Are You Currently Reading?

    Yep, Taking Anthropology to the World. It is a class on public anthropology. I found the missing textbook too, I had left it at work in my locker.

  6. Post your desktop (or other wallpapers)

    I am not sure how they run their sales, but it is currently on special on their digital store here in New Zealand for 50% off. Sale price goes for 4 more days.

  7. Do you actively post on social media?

    Yep, I am pretty into politics. How about yourself?

  8. What are you currently watching?

    Dragon Quest :D:D

  9. this mom has one request: stop giving my kid junk!

    Yeah, she seems to be making two different arguments at the same time. I agree that people should put thought into their gifts. However it is hard to really know if someone has put thought into it or not. I totally disagree with any connection between amount spent and thought put into the gift...

  10. What are you listening to now?

    A team leader at work giving instructions to a co-worker.

  11. Do you mind great Age Gaps in a Relationship?

    Thank you for the clarification, that makes sense. I try not to judge, but it is an arrangement I find difficult to understand. Granted when I was 18 I had a mad crush on a 28 year old. 😂😂 She turned me down for the same reasoning you have presented.

  12. Do you actively post on social media?

    I mostly just share memes and puns on Facebook. Although I will also share political stuff as well.

  13. Post your desktop (or other wallpapers)

    The main character is traveling in her spaceship. I can't remember where she is going but she runs out of fuel. The game is about her needing to get enough fuel to complete her trip. Each level she goes to has its own theme and mini plot. Nothing too serious it is all light hearted and...

  14. Do you mind great Age Gaps in a Relationship?

    I am not sure if I am reading this correctly. But are you saying a 40 year old and a 30 year old have nothing in common?

  15. Calls For Australia To Become A Republic Grows As Morrison Scandal Expands

    The most glaring problem with this is that communism is based on the understanding that it is the material conditions, primarily the means of production, which determines the social relations and shape of society. Full commie would mean we do not have any capitalism. Not only do we still have...

  16. Last Game/Match Watched?

    NRL Warriors vs Cowboys, the Warriors lost 48 - 4, this is not our year. The Warriors are at 6 wins and 16 losses with two more games of regular season to go.

  17. Post your desktop (or other wallpapers)

    Yep, A Hat in Time! A 3D Platformer that I really loved! I believe it is on PC, PS4, Switch and XBOX One

  18. Calls For Australia To Become A Republic Grows As Morrison Scandal Expands

    Communism really doesn't mean what you think it does. You are the one who has been moving the bar and distorting the word communism. I am staunchly opposed to the Heritage Foundation and what they advocate for. However even they acknowledge that New Zealand is capitalist...

  19. Are you normal?

    When I first started my job a co-worker came up to me and said "you are one of the few normal people here!" A year or so later I went up to him and asked why he hadn't said that since, and he just looked at me for a few seconds and then walked away. 😅😅 So maybe I am too normal? 😮😮

  20. Last Game Played

    Oh nice, I think my most of played Final Fantasy game would be 4, but I have not played it as many times as you have played 7. 😆😆 The last game I played was FF 1 again. Slowly making my way through. Not entirely sure what I am doing at the moment as I get lost so easy. 😂😂
