    WWE OSF Pick 'Em 2020 Season - Stage 1

    1 RKO 2 Drew McGalloway 3 Miz & discount Damien Sandow 4 Asuka 5 Sheamus 6 The II...... CONICS (I may break my "fuck WWE" refusal to watch streak for that match. I might even be awake to watch it live. Six of my favourite wrestlers in one match.) 7 Andrade B1 No B2 I assume you mean individual rather than team? I'm gonna say Bayley, Banks costs her the pin and they start a double turn. Doubt they can pull it off but that's my armchair booking. B3 The both pin Braun at the same time (technically my answer is both some gimme dem points if Braun goes over) B4 No B5 Over, Edge v RKO goes for like 78'

    Studio Ghibli General

    Most of the Ghibli films have been on Netflix for a while and I hear the US gottem in the last week. I finally crossed something off the bucketlist and watched all 23 in chronological order (fight me if you say there's only 21 or 22 lol). Have you seen them all? Favourite? Worst? Isao Takahata vs Hayao Miyazaki who would win?

    MLB 2019

    Yo, Outwith the games in Japan, season is now 2 hours old. Who's your team? How do you think they will fare? Who do you predict to make the World Series? What underdogs are you rooting for?

    MLB 2019

    That was a tough read. I remember it being hinted at at the time but the depths of his issues were so sad to read.

    Do ya do Twitching? Do ya stream or watch? Got dem recommendations? I've started speedrunning Streets Of Rage 4, and turns out people like watching that so I got myself a mic. To try and get used to speaking while playing I'm gonna try and stream for 5 hours tomorrow... yeah. Hate the sound of my own voice though. http://www.twitch.tv/ckellyedits if anyone wants to follow >_> also if you have Amazon Prime you can subscribe to me for free #JustSaiyan

    Streets Of Rage 4 is fucking amazing

    Actually didn't buy it on release cause the graphics looked too Street Fighter for me (lol). Dumb move. This game is amazing. I've basically played it non stop since Monday. Completed it with almost all the characters, I think my plateau is Hard, got all the achievements except 2 of the "Complete with X character" ones and the like 4 absolutely insane achievements which I doubt I'll ever get. Some of the secrets are super awesome. No spoilers. Who else is playing? Who is your main?

    Streets Of Rage 4 is fucking amazing

    Your first casual playthrough will probably take 2-3 hours depending if you're exploring for all the secrets. My average time is about an hour thirty. Speedrunners have got it down to about an hour. However there's a ton of replay value. The game keeps logs of your scores and times so it's easy to compete with yourself. There are a TON of characters to unlock. The PS4 achievements will take a lot of mastery to unlock. There's 5 difficulty levels. A Boss Rush mode. Arcade mode. Online multiplayer. Plus the original soundtrack is also included. The game is a beast. But if you're only intending on playing it once, you're only talking 2 hours. But personally I haven't stopped playing it all week.

    What's GOOD About Your Life rn

    Two year college course in "TV Production" (although really it's a catch-all course covering every aspect of the film/TV industry). Then the way UK schools work I'll then go on to do a year at University where I'll specialise, at the moment my plan is to specialise in Film Editing however I've basically got two years to lock that down if that's what I want to do. With the amount of money I've managed to save I'm going to look at things Year 2 and might actually study for a fourth year, see how things look. But right now the plan is 3 years of education and hopefully get work as a feature film editor or some form of editor at least.

    What's GOOD About Your Life rn

    Worked my last shift yesterday. Was pretty chill. Spent three hours deleting emails and scrubbing my name from everything I've created for past few years, went to my empty ass office to hand back my laptop etc. One of my boss's was there (we need 24/7 emergency coverage) and he had his new puppy with him, so got to finally meet the pupster, got the pleasure of literally dumping my equipment outside my office, and he had left me a bottle of rum and a nice card outside too. This was at like lunchtime too was I fuck doing a full shift my last day. Got notification that my education money got approved, getting my final pay in three weeks and then I can make my proper 3 year budget but I think, if my rough calculation is correct, I'll actually have enough to finance myself for an extra six months after my education. If I can get a decent part time job I might actually look into doing a post graduate year. Super happy today

    For me, I am glad we have the internet and instant access to like every song ever recorded.

    What Are You Grateful For Today?

    Yeah, I'm hella conflicted. Amazon treat their employees like garbage, but are also keeping the capitalist world running right now. Even the UK government said that their vaccines (if they'd worked) were going to be delivered via local chemists and Amazon. Not "online". Not a government website. Specifically fucking Amazon lol. Still, even Amazon can't get me a decent webcam rn. I am however thankful I was able to get new camera lenses so I can go take cool photos of my garden today.
  21. Well, yes and no. Heat *should* kill almost anything, which is why the advise is to reheat your takeout food. It's generic advice though. Some tests done on COVID-19 seemed to indicate it is more resistant to heat and also there were the alarming numbers in Iran which caused a reconsideration as to whether it would "go away in the summer" like flu. But I don't think much focus has been done on testing its heat tolerance yet. So I wouldn't get them mixed up. The heating your food advice is generic good practice, not COVID specific. Same with my "ensure you're not Vit D deficient" advice, it's also generic, however it's interesting to me in relative context to the "why is it showing in hot countries" and "why is China blaming black people" conversations.
  22. Did a lot of listening about Vitamin D deficiency today. I already figured it was going to be a great tool in the fight against COVID but wanted some reinforcement. Got me thinking about how like old wives tales are usually randomly linked to real science. Like two big things right now are: 1) China being very racist and blaming/persecuting black people and 2) Debate over warmer climes eradicating COVID despite no evidence that heat kills Well, vitamin D is a great preventative method against viruses and specifically respiratory viruses. The sun (ie warmer climes) is our main source of vitamin D. Darker skinned people don't absorb as much from the sun. tl;dr even when stuck at home, try to get some sunshine, and if not, ensure you're getting Vit D in your food/medication.

  25. I know someone who stays in China (not Wuhan, but...) He had a hardcore month-long lockdown, much harder than UK. Stay at home. If you want outside, go in your garden for five minutes then back. Open your window for ten minutes. Stay indoors. After a month of that, pubs etc are back open. Everyone has to wear a mask and everyone gets their temperature tested going in and out of any public building, but otherwise life inside the city is back to normal. Costs you thousands to get a permit to leave the city. Racism is rampant. No foreigners allowed in or out.
