I got it when I had my 3DS, but I've since lost it. It's a chill game so I thought it'd be fun. Does anyone here have it so I can see what fruits you have in your town

I felt like making an in depth crime doc about this rat corpse I found in my garden and my cats are the prime suspects. Never made a doc before and I don't have much equipment or software so I have to make do

Dover, Delaware - A Syracuse University sophomore was killed Saturday night when the Jeep he was riding in collided with another vehicle north of Dover, Maryland.

Hunter B. Watson, 20, of McLean, Virginia died in the crash that took place near the Firefly Music Festival. The Syracuse University chapter of Phi Kappa Si announced his death in a Facebook post. He was a sophomore at the university studying information technology and services, according to his Linked In page.

The crash occurred at about 6:23 p.m. Saturday, as Rod Zarafshar, 20 of McLean, Virginia, was driving a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee northbound on Lewis Drive approaching Dyke Branch Road, the Delaware State Police said in a news release.

Robert J. Falcone, 37, of Dover was driving a 2008 Ford F-250 pick-up truck westbound on Dyke Branch Road approaching the same intersection. The intersection is controlled by a stop sign for the north and southbound traffic on Lewis Drive. Traffic on Dyke Branch Road has the right of way.

The Jeep failed to stop for the stop sign and entered into the intersection and into the path of the westbound truck which struck the Jeep on the passenger's side. Watson was a front seat passenger in the Jeep. He was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

I'm not great at explaining things so sorry if it makes no sense. These past weeks I've been feeling pretty shitty and don't know what to do. I'm not thinking of killing myself or anything so you'll be stuck with me for a while.

So I dated this girl for three years, my first ever relationship. It was good, but it was long distance. Alongside the difficulties of trying to manage that, there were also emotional issues involved but I'd rather not get into that because I think she'd rather me not. Anyway, I was madly in love and thought everything was perfect until we broke up in February.

You'd think moving on would be easy, but fucking hell it isn't. We didn't talk for a while until about last month, when we started chatting again. Obviously I was still in love but she'd clearly moved on and made the point clear that it wouldn't work out again, being the way we were. Maybe I was being dumb and hopeful,  but I really did think we could work out again and remained optimistic.

 Despite her being friendly, it was clearly one sided and I wasn't getting anywhere. Sometime towards the end of June, she went on a date with some guy and had sex.  This is the part that hurt me the most, I know she's moved on and is well within her rights to do whatever she wants, but fucking hell the thoughts and imagery of it just really fucking bother me. Every day, it seems to just pop into my head at random, instantly killing my mood and usually makes me lose my appetite. Just makes me feel so damn empty, it's jealousy but it hurts so much to think about.

I'm trying to move on and I just keep thinking about it. It makes me feel ill. What can I do? The thought of hurting myself VERY briefly entered my mind once or twice but I decided against it because I really don't want to do that.


Just... hurts, y'know? Sometimes I just can't stop thinking about it. We're not talking anymore either, I just have to move on but it's hard. I try to distract myself but sometimes it just doesn't work. I don't know what to do. I don't even know fully why I posted it here, just getting it off my mind I guess? Fucking sucks, what a horrible way to feel.

What do you think of them, do you absolutely loathe them or do you enjoy spending some time chilling by the water's edge waiting for a bite? I've been playing Stardew Valley and I find it pretty relaxing.

The Flood / I have an overactive imagination
« on: July 23, 2017, 09:06:25 AM »
I spend way too much time reading spooky stories and looking at creepy photos. As you may or may not know I really enjoy urban exploring, which usually involves venturing into creepy old (usually dark) places, and at some point my mind starts to go nuts and I start thinking I'm going to start seeing shit in the corner of my eye and I freak myself out.

How do I deal with this

Speaking of fake history... regulars here may recall our plan to assemble an entire book of my fake histories of the Targaryen kings, a volume we called (in jest) the GRRMarillion or (more seriously) FIRE AND BLOOD. We have so much material that it's been decided to publish the book in two volumes. The first of those will cover the history of Westeros from Aegon's Conquest up to and through the regency of the boy king Aegon III (the Dragonbane). That one is largely written, and will include (for the first time) a complete detailed history of the Targaryen civil war, the Dance of the Dragons. My stories in DANGEROUS WOMEN ("The Princess and the Queen") and ROGUES ("The Rogue Prince") were abridged versions of the same histories.

No publication date has been set yet, but it's likely that we will get the first volume of FIRE AND BLOOD out in late 2018 or early 2019. The second volume, which will carry the history from Aegon III up to Robert's Rebellion, is largely unwritten, so that one will be a few more years in coming.

And, yes, I know you all want to know about THE WINDS OF WINTER too. I've seen some truly weird reports about WOW on the internet of late, by 'journalists' who make their stories up out of whole cloth. I don't know which story is more absurd, the one that says the book is finished and I've been sitting on it for some nefarious reason, or the one that says I have no pages. Both 'reports' are equally false and equally moronic. I am still working on it, I am still months away (how many? good question), I still have good days and bad days, and that's all I care to say. Whether WINDS or the first volume of FIRE AND BLOOD will be the first to hit the bookstores is hard to say at this juncture, but I do think you will have a Westeros book from me in 2018... and who knows, maybe two. A boy can dream...

Meanwhile, you'll have Gardner's anthology to fill the time. Keep your swords sharp!

The Flood / Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington dead by suicide

Fuck man, actually saddended by this. Really used to like Linkin Park, even some of their later stuff. Didn't know he was going through anything or what, but still a shock to me. Expecting Crawling in my Skin jokes but fuck... first famous person death in a while that's made me a bit sad.

I actually kind of enjoyed my last attempt, and drawing a comic to accompany it was great, had a lot of little in-jokes I was quite proud of. Never did finish it, though. I don't feel like doing Gen 3 again, so I'm either gonna do maybe Gen 5 or 6.

The Flood / I don't like Lyanna Mormont
« on: July 19, 2017, 04:46:22 AM »
Add this to the list of things the show does wrong, I guess. I really enjoy the show but I just find Lyanna Mormont irritating. She seems a bit too fanservice-y to me, because people sure do love the 'badass little girl' character don't they?

Looking back, I remember I had to in school. I just thought it was normal at the time, but now it seems dodgy as hell, trying to get kids in the Christian mindset like that.

What are your thoughts on this

The Flood / Abandoned wildlife park
« on: July 16, 2017, 01:39:34 PM »
Bit of an uphill trek this one, and Welsh weather is usually really wet so there was a lot of slipping and sliding about, muddy hands galore. I would have taken more pictures but my phone screen got water damage and I couldn't get the photos of it, so all I have left is the few I took on the last remaining storage space of the camera, did get some nice pics of the old toboggan track though.  Hope you enjoy.

The Flood / Heard a loud ass plane flying over
« on: July 12, 2017, 06:29:59 AM »
It sounded a lot louder than usual so I stuck my head out my window to see what was up there, and the plane was tiny. I was a bit confused, but upon further inspection it was just a seagull. The plane was out of sight.

Strange times my friends.

Oops wrong forum, oops.

The Flood / Terminator 3 deleted scene with Sgt. Candy
« on: July 11, 2017, 09:32:12 AM »
YouTube


What a wonderfully bizarre scene showing the origins of the Arnie T800 design. I didn't really like T3 but I adore this scene because of how fucking silly it is.

146
I mean, I'm not sitting here hoping that there's a terrorist attack or a massive disaster, but I actually kind of enjoy the whole experience of staying up late, keeping up to date with events and reading all of the details as they come out. I find it really riveting, like when the Ariana Grande attack happened I stayed up really late reading all of the reports that were coming out.

When the Grenfell Tower blaze happened, part of me was wishing the tower would collapse because it'd be a real shocking moment seeing that happen live on camera as I'm watching. Of course I didn't WANT it to happen because loads more people would die but it would have been quite a sight to see, right?

Does anyone else get this? Is it a morbid curiosity? Maybe I'm just sick in the head.

The Flood / Okay so, something strange just happened.
« on: July 10, 2017, 05:16:12 PM »
For some backstory, I've been feeling incredibly shitty lately. Turns out going through a breakup and letting go isn't the easiest thing in the world, and I haven't been happy.

Yesterday I had a shower, and after getting out, I was looking at my foggy reflection in the steamed up mirror. It was one of those weird self-reflection moments that you see on TV or something, and I drew a smiley face with my finger over my own face. Dramatic? Yeah, but I just felt like doing it.

So just now, after having a bath, I was looking at myself in the same mirror while drying my hair. The mirror had since cleared and steamed over again, so my original smiley face had gone, but... now there was another, smaller one slightly to the right of where mine was.

I took two pics from different angles to try and show it, it's hard taking a photo of a mirror with my phone so bear with me.

 

Okay, I know people here are rightfully skeptical, and I am too. I'm fully aware of paredoila and similar effects, so maybe it's nothing. Maybe it's just parts of the mirror that has un-steamed or whatever. It still looks like a drawn face to me.

I did think it could have been my dad that did it, but he always complains if I draw on the mirror or car windows because it takes longer to clear, or something. I even asked him if he'd drawn a smiley face on the mirror and he said no.

Part of me is hoping it's my dad, but the other part is hoping it wasn't, and this is my own little message from someone who's watching.
If, if, IF it wasn't him that did it, I think it's kinda nice. Do spirits pick up on people's feelings? Was it someone watching over me, giving me a smiley face back?

Sorry if it doesn't look like much, but I thought I'd share.

It's due out tomorrow but Tesco had it today, so I nabbed the last copy. It looks really nice.

I can't find find a way to disable the speed up mode, though. Is there even an option?

The Flood / Spoiler Just saw Spider-Man Homecoming.
« on: July 09, 2017, 03:40:55 PM »
I enjoyed it a lot. Keaton was actually good as the Vulture, it's about time they actually got an interesting villain for one of these films. I thought Tom Holland did a good job at portraying an actual teenaged Peter Parker AND a teenage Spider-Man.

One thing, though. There are two points in the movie where Peter has to leave somewhere to go do heroic Spider-Man stuff. I get it, it's part of his character having to balance the two. I think it would have been much better if he had actually stayed at the first party and later realized the consequences of staying, which would have really hammered home the theme of responsibility and made the scene of him leaving prom that much better.

Unfortunately the film didn't have many 'wow' moments to match the ending scene of Spider-Man 1, or the train scene of Spider-Man 2. The scene that really stood out to me though, was when he was trapped under the rubble after Vulture brings down a roof on him. He actually calls for help. Yeah he may be a superhero, but he's a fucking kid. He's vulnerable, he's calling out for someone that isn't there. I really liked that scene. Of course it was followed by a total cheese moment, but still it really stood out to me.


Also I would have liked to have seen some shots of him swinging through the city, but I guess he's still just the friendly NEIGHBOURHOOD Spider-Man.
Did you like it?

Gaming / Save your game

Also, how many times do you usually end up saving your game? On a game like Pokemon I usually save about twice because I forgot if I saved the first time.
