Or have enough money to bribe lobby for laws in your favor

This was my introduction to X-Com and I loved it. The other games are so different that I appreciated it more

I recently started The Forever War by Joe Haldeman

An extreme version of parasocial relationship

I try to clean as I go and put things back in their place when I’m finished. I also do a full sweep of the house once a week. My room mate on the other hand does nothing so it doesn’t matter, my house is a constant mess and I usually end up cleaning after him. I’m male btw.

• Change my ringtone based on time/location
• Silence phone if my calendar has the word meet or meeting

• Turn on WiFi based on location
• etc

They’re videos but worse in every way

I once called my bank because I had trouble logging in. They didn’t outright say it but they implied that they could see my password and asked if I wanted to update it by telling them the new one. I said no.

Don’t give them any ideas
