Since the lights seem to be flickering here, not sure how much time there is: I'm @[email protected] on Mastodon and FSkornia#7137 on Discord. I'm also FSkornia on Twitch at twitch.tv/fskornia where I stream irregularly, usually adventure and mystery games
The Phantom Menace. A: The exposition was clunky, but the plot idea had promise. It also constructed new narratives in Star Wars. B: Obi-wan & Qui Gon vs Darth Maul & Duel of the Fates C: Pod racing

Pfizer: At least 50,000 pallets of medicine impacted by tornado damage. Nearly 25 percent of all sterile injectables used in U.S. hospitals are produced at this facility. More than 400 million units leaving the site annually help treat patients around the world. @WRAL

I think I'm crossing into 210-212 hours in Assassin's Creed Valhalla playing the third major DLC. I think I had 205 hours for AC Odyssey. 120 hours for Persona 5. 110 hours for RDR2. 250 hours for Skyrim. 75-100 hours is not "pretty dang long"
