Hulu is down.No doubt Khyron is to blame.
I have gone quite mad due to lack of Macross.
That said, people have been waiting DECADES for this to be available legally.
I will not encourage piracy here, but I will note that the lack of legal options will make piracy a lot more attractive.
Lunar is one of those games I missed out on due to not having the right console growing up, and that I've never gotten around to playing through other means. It'll likely be a quick purchase.

I cannot recommend it enough. Please enjoy.

I gave the kids an IXL assignment to correct grammatical errors in signs, and it's backfiring by giving me an aneurysm whenever I see the images as I circulate to help.
It has also revealed my weakness: I cannot spell restaraunt restauraunt diner to save my life.

before the reveal that they're all left handed millers who get constripted for the kings army.

I cannot pronounce 'caramelised'. I have to spell it out syllable by syllable, otherwise it sounds like someone rinsing their mouth out with blancmange.
Spotify is good for older stuff (as is Youtube - maybe better), but Bandcamp is where I look for new music.I might have subscribed to MoonJune Records to get all of their releases...Soft Machine, Tony Levin, Markus Reuter, Wingfield, Gary Husband, a bunch of obscure jazz fusion groups ranging from Italy to Indonesia...good stuff.
It's a grand source for new jazz, that's for certain (and they seem to be reissuing the later Soft Machine albums, too)

I believe it's 'lefftenant'.

Is that when you go there and the waitstaff mocks you loudly to your face? I imagine it's something like this.

Rookie landscape designer: I have this idea for a water feature, but it's kind of intricate
Veteran landscape designer (raises an eyebrow and looks at me): I mean, that's kind of our thing, lay it on us!

Imagine: Two tiny fountains.
I was out fixing a main break last night. Till after midnight. You know you’re having fun when your wet fingers stick to the metal tools because of freezing.

What are the odds that their "intricate water feature" is a small pond with a tiny fountain in it? What's that? The tiny fountain is slightly off-center for aesthetic reasons? Ooo, fancy.Rookie landscape designer: I have this idea for a water feature, but it's kind of intricate
Veteran landscape designer (raises an eyebrow and looks at me): I mean, that's kind of our thing, lay it on us!
So close! It was actually a small fountain that flows off 3 sides into tiny ponds. All perfectly centered.
Which, to be honest, wasn't THAT intricate (I was doing that the first show I helped set up in Seattle).
So, Drejk, how far are you in Elden Ring?
What kind of character you building?
Favorite weapon? Spell? Spirit summons? Boss?
So, Drejk, how far are you in Elden Ring?
I am standing at the Drainage Channel, fuming at the very thought of going through those !@#$%^&*()+ knights, getting close to have my ass handed to me by Malenia.
I also burned the tree and reached the crumbling azula or what-is-it called, and I am shortly before Mogh.
What kind of character you building?
Mage
ca. 80-85 Int (depending on headwear and talismans), 25 Faith, 16 or so Arcane, 16 Str, 12 End, closing to 50 Vigor (48? something like that)Favorite weapon?
Mainly spells so the staff I got from Rennala - after so many tries, though occasionally I pull out Darkmoon Greatsword for backstabbing/slashing enemies I feel I can take on, or when I know I won't have time to finishc asting, though I occasionally switch to some holy sword to deal with skeletons, or back to Moonveil which I used for melee most of the game before getting.
This complemented with a carian knight shield occasionally switched to fundamentalist seal when I need to cast a prayer or two (it has Int scaling), and horn bow (again, Int scaling).
The staff, both moon swords, and seal are maxed to +10.
Spell?
Very vanilla set of night comet and rock sling for bosses, with occasionally playing with things like cannon of Haima (nice aoe against weaker enemies plus knockback - I had killed some really annoying enemies by stunlocking them), frenzy fire (I think that's how it is called - it's a very long range ray of madness fire.
Spirit summons?
I used banished knight Engvall for a long time, until I got dung eater ashes, and now I am mostly using Black Knife Tiche... I struggled for so damn long to defeat her that I intend to milk her for every drop of blood of mine she has spilled - it will be a very long time.

Flu A and Strep are ripping through my school this week.
Yesterday, I started the day with 5 children out and sent home 5 more with fever and lethargy over the course of the morning. Then I got sent home with a fever, too.
Today, a quarter of our faculty and support staff are out (including me and my assistant), and TWO-THIRDS of the students in my class (17 of 26). I have a sub there with nine children.
And, yes, I DID get my Flu, Covid Booster, and Pneumonia shots last month.
And I clean and sanitize my classroom three time a day myself because I don't trust the cleaning crew.

Wow... I've seen classes get hit hard before, but that's the worst I've ever heard. I know that kids are basically vectors, but 17/26 is just... wow...
(One of my favorite sayings back in my teaching days was, "The only thing more unsanitary than a 5-year-old is an 18-year-old.")And, yes, I DID get my Flu, Covid Booster, and Pneumonia shots last month.
And unfortunately, 2 of those 3 (flu and COVID) are rated as, "These won't save you, but they'll reduce the symptoms." And I'll say, after two years in a row of serious bouts with the flu (103+°F fevers for 4-5 days at a time), I started getting flu shots, and although I've gotten sick, I haven't had a fever break 103°F since.
Personally, I'm dealing with a mild sinus infection, but considering my manager is at this moment scheduling surgery to repair damage caused by an untreated sinus infection, her entire reaction to my requests for sick time is, "TAKE MORE!!!"

And...
It was anticlimatic...
Yes, she killed me on the first fight because of a cheap trick - her introductory animation moves the PC to the center arena, within the range of her first combo, so she killed me because I wasn't holding shield block (or dodged in a right direction) immediately when the animation ended.
The second attempt was... Maybe not a complete cake-walk, she put me near death a few times (and if I haven't been investing in Vigor for the last few levels, she would definitely got me), basically depleting all four of healing potions I had prepared, but otherwise, Tiche, with some help from my slung rocks massacred her.
It would be completely different if I was melee, as I would fail to block/parry/dodge her attacks in direct melee slashfest...
Oh, she dropped over 500k runes? That will be, like, two levels, or so!
Meh. Still no sale for Shadow Of The Tree... :/

I would come to help if I could, but Im not sure what help I could provide.
I've been losing my mind over getting this forensics meet prepped, and it's a nightmare. Kids aren't finding enough judges, but worse, I don't have enough entries to actually run any events. It's looking more and more like I need to reschedule it. And rescheduling anything on a high school calendar...
