Iāve been roleplaying a cowboy in New Vegas this past week and itās been the most fun Iāve had in a long time with video games. Obviously the real American frontier was not a lovely place to be but the Midwest is one of the most beautiful parts of the planet and to have seen it untouched must have been incredible.
the cowboys, cattle drive, bbq, museums, rodeo, tex-mexā¦ itās fun, itās campy, itās hot, and itās yeehaw as fuck
(maybe not ātruly underratedā but i think itās overlooked as a fun place to visit)
Make chicken that dries out your entire body ! Make soup that sits in your stomach in the worst way possible ! Screw up pasta so badly that the Italian government declares it a hate crime ! Then next time you make these things make them slightly less awful ! I learn by doing and fucking up and doing again, and as long as something is gained from a disaster, it is not a disaster in vain.
I have thought about this a good bit and ultimately it doesnāt matter to me. This might seem like a cop out answer but I think itās the only correct one. You can debate determined vs not for the rest of the time but things will continue to happen regardless.
I am the ultimate vertical locomotor.
Thereās nothing good about stairs in and of themselves, though they are perhaps the peak of pre-electronic liminal technology. Use this fact to your advantage: lunge multiple steps at a time, run up on all fours, slide down a railing, go up the fast route on an escalator.
maximise the potential of stairs, go as fast as you can
