"How goes the special project Commander Grey?"
Jerry flicks through a couple reports and images of repairs and modifications as his Chief Engineer gives him the once every two week briefs he liked to do with his department heads. Instead of the free for all of a staff meeting it gave him a chance to go in depth with his department heads one on one and get the details on what was going on with their sections, their needs, wants and nice to haves. It also gave him a chance to check in on special, secret taskings he handed out from time to time.
Sometimes it simply wouldn't do to ruin the surprise.
Grey looks up from his tablet and brings up a few schematics on a holo projector.
"We're pretty much done with the external reinforcements to the large docking port on section four. We should be able to piggy back or 'haul' a vessel of up to similar mass to ourselves. So anything too big for the hangars should be able to dock there without issue. It's in an odd portion of the ship still skipper, almost seems like it was for military traffic and not civilian cargo, but you're the boss."
If there was a hint of suspicion in Grey's voice he didn't show it, but then again, the man was bland beyond bland and if he did think something was a bit janky he probably didn't actually care. Still, he accomplished his tasks with aplomb and if something wasn't sound by engineering principles he made his voice known and that was more than enough for Jerry in a chief engineer.
"Excellent, give the team on that job my regards, I know working on the hull while not in dock, even with drones is hard work. Recommend a suitable bonus to me in the next day or so and I'll authorize it, Al."
"Sounds good Skipper I'm sure the crew will appreciate whatever it ends up being, I'll have to think about it. Next up though, we've finished all the new mini parks. They're tied into the ship's oxygen recycling centers predominantly just like you wanted, and the integrated system to deal with... fecal material, from canines and other pets is all set up. Are there really going to be enough dogs on the ship to merit a dog park in each section and that massive one near the Marine spaces."
"I'm afraid so Al, I mean hell your crews set up the kennel blocks for the Military Police and Masters at Arms on the Provost Marshal's request the other week, and the battalion's kennels and Paladin company's kennels should be done..."
Jerry frowns down at his data slate.
"Wait, when will that be done?"
"Finished them up yesterday, as requested. So Military Working Dog sections. Interesting. Big damn dogs too from the size of the kennels."
"They hopefully won't spend too much time in those kennels, they'll generally stay with their handlers after training, but the kennels will be their action station."
"Which explains why they're basically escape pods."
"Yep. Give them a fighting chance at least. I'm going to look into manufacturing carriers like that for civilian pets aboard and start encouraging people to train their animals to use them on the battle stations alarm sounding. I'm not anticipating us all getting spaced, but I'd rather be overly paranoid and never need it."
"Got it loud and clear Skipper, I don't know what I'd do if something happened to Charlie. I'll volunteer some of my crew to fiddle with that project with your civilian tech specialists."
"Got some dog lovers in your teams?"
"With Charlie moving around to help morale... Well sir, it's hard to top a Golden Retriever puppy for improving someone's mood, even an exhausted engineer."
"Fair enough, well if you can spare them, have them coordinate with the Director's office, Syl will put them to work in the next week or so once we're through the bulk of orders for Serbow."
"Any alien cat fancier clubs this time sir?"
"Heh. Not this time Al." Jerry chuckles, remembering that particular unexpected encounter.
"Got a few requests from the boys in the ninja village though. A couple of human adjacent families and people who've been getting into human media looking for pets. We've been giving them extensive educational material before confirming orders considering they don't have something like the Awauynis Cat Fancier's club to provide structure and assistance. A pet's a lifetime commitment after all, and with healing comas a lifetime can be... impressive. To say the least. Especially now that most breeds have a 'prime' configuration. I got the healthiest strands I could, but the improvements Syl's team have made is damn impressive."
"Yeah I heard in the ward room the other day. Some really fine detailed work too. Might be a bit over my head, but I can appreciate any form of good engineering, including genetic."
"So dog parks are done, kennels are done... which is extra good, the first batch of enhanced Dobermans and Malinois should be decanting today."
Al raises an eyebrow. "Pardon me Skipper... enhanced? Like, more than the prime strains?"
"Yeah they're calling them Super Dobies and Hyper Malinois as jokes, but they're the Prime of both breeds, enhanced. They should be bigger, more athletic, more intelligent, more acute senses and able to interact with axiom as naturally as any other galactic animal. Syl's projections are incredible with SI support, looks like the Malinois, and this would have happened naturally over time mind you, will naturally channel axiom to its bite. That's going to take some very special training, because if a Malinois channels hard enough it could probably put a damaging bite into armor plate. The Super Dobies should be able to take a hit while also being able to deliver a solid bite... but their main thing is their physicality. A Super Dobie tackle should be like getting hit by a freight train, and that durability is before we give them armor."
"Sounds pretty wild. Mind if I come with you for the decanting?"
"Not at all. I think there's only one last thing to go over before we head over to the labs. That range project I sent you?"
"Oh right."
Al pulls up a 3D display of the ship and zooms in a specific set of sections.
"We should be able to get at least fifty yards and a few one hundred yard ranges near the major hab blocks for recreational shooting and practice. We're aiming for five to ten lanes depending on anticipated traffic with various hard light targets. Easy. Cheap. Can provide varied training and moving or pop up targets. We've got a big range planned out for near the blocks where the bulk of the battalion lives. Honestly that'll save us some pain, the Marines go the hardest on their shooting, so by keeping them mostly in one place we can just reinforce that location. We've got the space for a 50 yard pistol and shotgun range near the Den. SMGs too obviously. Or even rifles if you want to do some action drills. I have to build that one heavy no matter what. That 7.5 FK round is no joke... nor is that 40mm cannon Warrant Officer Jaruna's calling a shotgun."
"So everything's all sited and planned out?"
"Yep. Honestly working on this tub is almost too easy with how modular everything is... and frankly we're just not using that much space. I don't consider it serious work until I've got to start looking at potentially rerouting service tunnels and jefferies tubes, and I haven't had to do a damn thing like that yet." Al rubs his temple. "The damndest thing about it is that's not even that big a deal! These tubs are modular enough I'm convinced they're cheating somehow. If I didn't have some of my wives on hand I'd be losing my mind over some of this stuff. The engines are simple. The internal configuration of this starship's black fucking magic. Like. I'm pretty sure we haven't messed with the interior spaces with axiom... but now I'm getting paranoid that it came that way. Then I remember how big this thing is. Supposed to be able to comfortably ship twelve thousand people, plus crew, across the entire galaxy, plus all the material to found the colony, to include buildings and vehicles. Plus a year's supplies. Plus all the supplies to feed everyone and keep them happy on the way there, and feed the crew going home in a considerably more spacious style."
Gray hangs his head theatrically, the most emotion Jerry had ever actually seen from the man.
"Regretting your choice to come along Al?"
"Not on your damn life! Figuring this weird alien shit out is way more fun than trying to keep naval nuclear power plants in good trim. The company's significantly better too."
"You are married to half the engineering section it seems."
"Not half."
Jerry raises an eyebrow.
"Oh fine, a lot of the senior team and the individual engineering team leads are my wives. Like you can talk, Skipper. You're married to half the senior staff! I'd claim nepotism, but it's a no shit family business so it actually makes sense. Which brings up warships in private ownership, which is an American tradition, but the fact that you just... own something this big."
"After a literal lifetime of work from Sylindra in the most competitive market in the galaxy, decades of bounty hunting from Jaruna and the more martially inclined girls, blood money from the mother of those gangers, a generous loan we're still paying off."
"Paying off slowly to keep building a credit history."
"Fair. We could pay it off now, but I'd rather keep the money liquid honestly and reinvest into the ship and our capabilities. If it's a military capability the Undaunted reimburse us. So those ranges for example are on Cistern."
"Nice. Didn't know a lot of this was out of your pocket."
"Most of it save, wages, comes out of my pocket first. A lot of it does get reimbursed mind you. We have contracts with the Undaunted to provide food and services, leasing the medical facilities and the like. All at very fair rates mind you, but that's part of the deal with the loan. It favors Cistern to keep those terms good for both of us as it means we'll likely stick around longer. Which, admittedly, is currently the plan. Ten years at least. Maybe twenty. Once we’ve built out the business network, maybe bought some more ships that will stay purely commercial, and can afford to buy a planet we'll put this beast to work colonizing again, and either put it in the hands of either employees or the next generation of the family to keep up the trade routes and make money."
"Well I'm happy to be along for the ride. You could probably tempt me into private service if I ever want to leave the Undaunted for whatever reason. Not that there's a huge reason to try and push for promotion and a command or something for me. Cistern pays us damn well, and on top of that he pays all my wives damned well. Throw in the lost cost of living aboard ship and it's hard to 'tempt' me off the ship and onto an urban megalopolis like Centris or some other hell hole."
"That's exactly the attitude I want to engender Al. I want everyone to want to stay on this ship, and to be assigned to the Tear to be considered incredibly desirable."
"Well it's working. Keep this up and the Admiral really will promote you again. Charm that pirate gal's panties off and you'll have a second ship in the fleet and can force an advancement to at least Commodore."
"...I'd rather not. Not that way any way. Past that, Incerra's not really my type."
Al gets a sly grin on his face.
"What's wrong sir? I thought you were a dog person."
"Don't you damn start Al. Speaking of though... let's go check in on the decanting. Drop the subject of Incerra and I'll even let you have a look at a secret project Paladin Company's working on."
"I mean, I know you're getting working dogs for the company, I authorized the work orders for the kennels."
"Sure, but you don't know what kind of dogs, and let me tell you Al... they're something special."
First Last

I run a dedicated server on my old original Xbox one for just me and two friends last night one of them was breeding argies and caused it to crash and now every time I try and load up that world it sends me back to the Home Screen is there anything I can do to fix this or do I just have to start over

I’m at a point now where I feel like I’ve come to a natural end to my time with the game, so I thought I’d share my thoughts on my experiences. I’d like to point out that these are simply my own personal opinions and I don’t wish to cause offence to anyone thinking that I’m unfairly critiquing the game. I’ll start with some positive praise, though.
First off, I love the game’s aesthetic. The pixel art is lovely and takes me back to my days playing Theme Park when I was younger (yes, I’m old). Really charming and the animal sprites a well made.
The music is fantastic and a varied, mixed bag of styles. I found myself listening to the soundtrack on Spotify while I work.
The morality system is an interesting spin on the tycoon genre that’s rarely explored, and made for some fun twists. This does come with its own downside, but I’ll talk about this later.
The general gameplay is also decent, with the farming side of the game being a welcome distraction from the day-to-day zoo management.
On these notes, I want to make it clear that I do like the game and found it to be a mostly fun experience. However, there was a fair few elements that didn’t work for me.
I’m torn on the research tree. On the one hand, I weirdly enjoyed seeing what was next in line, but overall I disliked the blind unlocks. Especially when I needed a particular habitat or facility. You might unknowingly follow an unlock path in the complete opposite direction to the “node” that you need. This can get incredibly frustrating in the mid-late game when nodes become more and more expensive, but the research points don’t build up any quicker.
In terms of progress, I found that the game became an absolute slog at times. Animal availability becomes fewer and farther between, research slows to a crawl and I found myself with literally nothing to do for huge periods of time. Many times I just sat with the game at full speed, watching the days tick by. Literally just waiting for my breeding centres to produce something of value for trade or to fulfil a request.
Requests and rewards are something that I feel needs work. The “quests” and rewards don’t scale to the size/success of the zoo. In the mid-late game, I can fulfil a request for a particular variant, but the reward will be $200. I can impress an influencer and get a reward of 5 extra guests. When you’re raking in millions and hosting thousands of guests per week, the rewards are beyond pointless.
As time went on, I gradually found that I disliked designing enclosures. The main reason was that nothing added to an enclosure mattered other than water. The enrichment items were a very contentious issue for me. Putting a salt lick and climbing frames in with crocodiles has the same positive effect as any other combination of enrichment. When I started the game, I put a lot of effort into making my enclosures look as beautiful as possible, only to then have to fill them with all manner of crap like cardboard boxes, trampolines, etc. Anything goes and it really killed my enthusiasm for building suitable/realistic enclosures. There’s no point spending time on enclosures because they all end up practically the same.
Going back to the morality system; despite being a fun element of the game, I find it odd that the game turns a blind eye when it comes to the C.R.I.S.P.R. For some reason, not having recycling bins is a big moral no-no, but creating a walrus/owl hybrid abomination in a lab to display for profit is considered morally a-ok. In fact, the game continually pushes you to create hybrids and does not give you the option to decline.
I also find it odd that the game goes so far in allowing the player to create an evil zoo where players can systematically slaughter the animals for profit. I get that it gives more freedom for players, but it seems at odds with the game’s generally positive “green” message. The overall tone of the game seems very messy in places. I understand that this is mostly a personal gripe, though.
In summary, I feel that a lot of effort went into making the early game an engaging experience, but the mid-late game really dropped off for me. It’s a shame because I do like this game and I can tell that it’s been made with a lot of love.
Apologies for such a long post, but I’d be eager to hear others thoughts on my experience, whether in agreement or not. If I’ve been playing the game “wrong”, then please let me know! I’d love to be able to go back to the game with a more positive mindset in the future. I’m not sure if it makes much of a difference, but I played on PS5.

Does this sound like you? Are you scrolling through reddit looking for something to challenge your good girl nature, but a little too shy or guilty to take the first step into embracing your slutty side? Then i think you owe it to yourself to reach out to me and indulge in your naughtiest desires.
My new hobby has been providing a respectful space for girls like you to embrace their sinful side you've been too nervous to explore. Breeding kink? Humiliation and/or praise kink? Eager to become a little obedient pet? Rough stuff? Gangbang fantasy in front of your church? You will have a hard time surprising me. I go as fast or as slow as you need, unearthing all the kinks you never would allow yourself to indulge in. Does not matter how vanilla or deranged they may be. Who knows, maybe we both walk away satisfied ;)
Absolutely kink positive, don't be shy 😘😈 I promise I'll take care of you.

Hey all,
Making room on the shelves and trying to beat the eBay prices on these books for you. Make me an offer; the more you want, the more I'll probably be able to help out. I want a lot of this stuff gone!
Shipping will be $5 flat or free if you take over $49 worth

I'll TL;DR below, because this will take some exposition. Hope this isn't too long. I don't post often:
Background info:
Need advice regarding whether my pre-planned response a TPK would be "too mean" for my group.
Long campaign. We're 2.5 years in, with hopes to be able to wrap up this year. Group has played from level 3 to 16, so far, with plans to hit 20 by the end. The group is comprised of my wife, my best friend from college, and another married pair who are really good friends of ours. We play online every other week via Discord and a VTT program. Obviously group is good, communicative, and we address any issues or concerns that come up directly and quickly.
At around level 10 in the campaign, party found a riddle. Purely optional/side-quest, they have worked over the last year or so IRL on deciphering the riddle, traveling to the locations indicated, and obtaining stone tablets in each of the four locations. Those tablets made a map that finally led them to the location of the artifact that was mentioned in the riddle. Being a side-quest/optional, the artifact isn't story-necessary, but it will provide a significant benefit for them in their encounter with the final BBEG; they are on a time-crunch with only about 40 in-game days left until apocalypse, so rests have become a "resource" of sorts, meaning pursuing these optional quests are very much a measured risk/reward situation.
The four map-piece locations and the final location were all created as "static" encounters, meaning when I created them back a year or so ago, I had varied CRs that were established without consideration to the party's current level, or with any intention of altering the difficulty like I do with the more "dynamic" main-story encounters. If a challenge was too great, the party would know to come back later to finish.
Event:
Party gets to final location. Fights through a scaling increase in difficulty. Makes it to final room with artifact. The fight prior to the final one was supposed to be a pretty good indicator that if the difficulty continued increasing, they would be unable to complete the dungeon at this point, and would need to come back in a couple levels or with better gear.
However, as is the case with this game, the penultimate fight wasn't too bad for them. They had really lucky rolls, I had some really bad ones, and they cleared the encounter with much, much less difficulty than planned. Emboldened, they proceeded to the final room, where they were all eventually killed by a couple planetar.
They were warned ahead of time by a guardian spirit at the entrance that death inside the temple wouldn't be permanent as it was in its own pocket dimension of sorts, but that death would come at a significant cost (there would be no "normal" death penalty).
Their deaths are where we ended last session.
Problem/My question:
Here's the issue. In planning this entire side-quest series, my plan had been that if they died anywhere in the final temple, they wouldn't die for real, but there would be a price. That price would be the loss each of one of their powerful, attuned items. Now that we're here, though, and it happened, I worry that that might be too harsh of a penalty. Would it be too much like kicking them while they're down? They would be losing a Sunblade, a Wand of the War Mage, a Staff of Fire, and a Dragon Wing Shortbow, all of which are valuable to the group, as I've been very tight-fisted with magic items all game, using the recommended distribution chart from XGtE.
Should I stick with my plan, out of principle of having warned them ahead of time? Should I come up with something else and strive for "story/fun over rule" mentality? Has anyone had to deal with this kind of issue as a DM before of having planned something, but then when rubber hit the road felt too bad to want to stick to it?
Any advice or even commiseration is appreciated at this point. Got a week to figure out what I'm going to do. :-\ Thanks
TL;DR:
Party warned by NPC of non-specific but significant cost that would be exacted if they had TPK pursuing powerful artifact in extra-dimensional temple. They ended up dying in pursuit of that artifact. Now I worry that my planned "cost" may be too high, and I struggle if that cost is important for them to understand magnitude of what they're pursuing, or if I should back off the penalty for sake of not kicking them while they're down.

Technically its 160 movies in 31 days, averaging about 5 movies a day for every day in January.
The Rating is based on my own enjoyment in a 1 to 10 scale, and a simple Good or Bad after.
A couple will be rated 0 with HATE, as a way to say I did not care to rate them because I hated the movie after I was done watching.

Final Words: Movies are still fun to watch

After an epic trilogy with Tyson Fury, Wilder looks to put his name back in the mix for world title honours as he faces of in a battle of two former American world champions and try and put the US back in the mix with the European champions as he attempts to take down Andy Ruiz Jr. and add to his terrifying highlight reel. Today in fightplans we look at how to best replicate one of boxing's biggest ever punchers in Leather boxing manager. Here is..
'The Bronze Bomber' Deontay Wilder
Deontay Leshun Wilder was born October 22, 1985 in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. He was into a deeply religious Christian family with his father and grandmother both working as preachers across the state. Deontay's first child and eldest daughter, Naieya was born with spina bifida when Wilder was just 19 years old, and acted as a huge motivating factor to make the best life for his daughter, trying his hand st high school football and basketball, before dropped out due to personal issues and poor grades to go a community college and settle on boxing career. He started his amateur career with the Skyy Boxing Gym in Northport, Alabama under Jay Deas in 2005. By 2007, Wilder upset the favourites to win both the National Golden Globes and US Championships at 91kg, defeating the highly touted cadet world champion southpaw Isiah Thomas in the Golden Gloves, and winning the Olympic trials for 2008, with only 21 amateur bouts to his name. Wilder then competed at heavyweight in the 2008 Olympics, defeating Abdelaziz Touilbini of Algeria and Mohamed Arjaoui of Morocco before losing to Clemente Russo of Italy in the semi-final to earn a bronze medal, and turned professional with his Joe Louis inspired nickname with hopes of becoming the next great heavyweight to come out of Alabama. He turned over as professional after the Olympics aged 23, starting his career in frightening fashion, going 25-0 and never been taken past 4 rounds, before his picked up his first title, claiming the US Continental Americas title taking out Kelvin Price in 3 rounds. His incredible run of knockouts would continue, as Wilder would stop Audley Harrison, Siarhei Liakhovich and future coach Malik Scott all inside 2 minutes, moving to 32-0 with 32 knockouts to secure his first world title shot against Bermane Stiverne. It would be the first time Wilder would go to full 12 rounds, with Wilder showing his underrated boxing ability to score a lopsided decision and claim the WBC world title. He'd go on to make 10 defences of his world title twice stopping Luis Ortiz, rematching and stopping Stiverne in one round and beating the likes of Chris Arreola, Dominic Brezeale, Gerald Washington and a devastatingly brutalising Artur Szpilka with the mother of all counter right hands as he put away the Polish fighter with what he called his favourite ever knockout.
Following his second fight with Ortiz, would would emerge as the first real test for Tyson Fury after a 3 and a half year lay off, with Fury taking the fight after just 14 rounds with modest opposition in Sefer Seferi and Francisco Pianeta, many expected the step up against the big punching Wilder to be too much for Fury, who boxed well throw out before a flash knockdown in the 9th round go put down viciously in the 12th with a minor miracle seeing Fury return to his feet and take the fight to Wilder in closing seconds and see the final bell and lead to a much debated split decision draw, fuelling the fire for an intense rematch with Fury switching his training team to SugarHill Steward determined to knockout out the knockout artist, this and the constant mind games and changes in persona from Fury seemed to seriously rattle Wilder, who never looked confident once entering the ring, showing visible panic and fear once Fury began backing up, looking constantly off balance and never comfortable off the backfoot with corner man Mark Breland mercifully throwing in the towel with Wilder sitting on the ropes in the 7th round. This led to his shocking dismissal from Wilder's team as he was replaced with Malik Scott and Wilder's shot in the dark and pretty comical excuses and he struggled to come to terms with being handed his first professional loss, and while he fell short again in the trilogy, the fight that everyone seemingly didn't want with talks of AJ vs Fury, the trilogy bout became one of the greatest heavyweight clashes in modern history as Wilder had Fury in serious trouble, down twice in the fourth round and Wilder showing plenty of heart to keep battling on until he was ultimately stopped in the 11th round following a thrilling back and forth battle with plenty of entertainment if not technical prowess. Wilder returned to winning ways as he blasted out Robert Helenius inside 3 minutes, with an emotional post fight interview from Wilder to set up a huge WBC Eliminator bout with Andy Ruiz Jr.
BOMBSQWAD!
While Wilder may not have the technical ability of many heavyweights, if he can be labelled a 'one trick pony' he surely has the best trick, carrying huge speed and power in his right hand, carrying the most explosive one-hitter quitter in heavyweight history. While many heavyweights carry serious power, very few have possessed the athletic ability and explosive speed of Wilder and the ability to change a contest in an instant regardless of the scorecards. It's worth noting, the power alone of Wilder isn't all that could take him to the top of the sport. While his my no means a slick boxer, he does have solid boxing fundamentals, the difference between some one like Freezy McBones, a viral sensation know for knocking out very limited white collar fighters in big gloves but never beating anyone remotely close to senior amateur level. Wilder's may have fringe world level boxing ability, but coupled with his physical prowess has continued to make him a serious problem for all heavyweights of all abilities, and you can check out all Wilder's 42 knockouts here in less than 14 minutes. https://youtu.be/58j1hUoKpg0
Slugger
Core tactic Mid range Advantage mentality Ultra Aggressive
There seems to be a bit of confusion from some as to what a 'slugger' truly is. It's characterised very well in Leather's own 'help' section, reading
"Sluggers prefer to fight at mid-range with whatever power shots they can muster: be it cross, hook or lead uppercut. They are typically quite static in their footwork, looking to walk opponents in to their big shots."
It is certainly one of the best descriptions that could ever be written to describe Wilder. While sluggers are a bit of a dying breed in boxing, Wilder remains fiercely competitive as he looks to battle again for world titles. Wilder operates best at mid to long range, generating full leverage on all his punches, particularly his right cross. He plants his feet and looks to throw huge bombs with his opponent's moving forward, looking to counter as they advance doubling the force of the blow they receive. While there's a feeling Wilder is a big swinging, wild puncher, the stats show Wilder as a low volume puncher, patiently waiting for the right opportunity to land a big shot before closing in aggressively to try to close the show, typically less aggressive than many sluggers, managing his stamina and waiting for his opponent to open up rather than initiating exchanges.
Long range tactic Medium work rate Low combinations Follow up Wait/Approach Countermeasures Cover up/Counterpunch
Wilder works very well from long range with straight shots. He has an underrated jab he'll often flick out to measure the distance or create defensive traffic between himself and his opponent, the main aim not to be a huge scoring shot offensively or defensively, but more as a throwaway shot to try to find a home for his straight right that heavily target their head. When he starts to touch his opponent, he starts to let his right hand go, either with a one-two or with a straight right counter as his opponent closes the distance.
Mid range tactic Heavily Favour right hand Medium work rate Medium combinations Follow up Wait/Retreat Countermeasures Retreat/Counterpunch
Wilder's preferred distance, looking to take control of centre ring and keep his opponent backed up with big right hooks and and straight rights. He blends big one punch counters with vicious combinations as his tried to keep his opponent on the backfoot. As his opponent try to back up Wilder, he takes small steps back to the outside, looking to walk then onto a big right hand as they move forward, backing his speed and power to beat them to the punch, which will require a good level of reflexes and hand speed from your fighter.
Close range tactic Low work rate Ultra high combinations Follow up Wait/Retreat Countermeasures Cover up/Counterpunch
At close range, Wilder is normally looking to close the show, winging in big punches in the occasions he throws, looking to step back to get full leverage on his punches or stand and have it out as his opponent panics as the shots start fly to all areas of their head and body, best demonstrated with his finish of his second bout with Stiverne. While Wilder isn't the most subtle or accurate of finishers, his power and combinations inside often is enough to overwhelm his opponent as they struggle to cope with the oncoming onslaught.
Thanks again for checking out another installment of the fightplan series. As always, you can check out any write up you wish to replicate of past and present fighters to help you be victorious in any fight on Leather boxing manager. Can Wilder's power overcome Ruiz's rapid hand speed? Until the next fightplan, enjoy a great start to the year in boxing, with many huge heavyweight contests potentially on the horizon.

Hey fellow Mechwarriors, I'm playing in A Time Of War circa 3050, and one of the players in our lance has a Raven. It's pretty cool, but the rest of us have upgraded to heavier mechs and the Raven pilot is feeling stuck for lack of direct upgrades.
I've gone from a Trebuchet to an Archer, another player traded in his Shadowhawk for a Grand Dragon, and just recently our Wolverine pilot got a damaged Atlas.
One of the issues is that the Raven is a family mech, but another is that we haven't come across any larger mechs with electronic warfare capability. Is there a mech I can suggest for us to acquire which has heavier weapons/armor and also some good cyber tech?
Alternatively, is there a good package of upgrades which will allow the Raven to keep up with our enemies? We've changed out the heatsinks for doubles and strapped on an ERPPC somehow. I suggested upgrading the engine to a 280 which would give a higher dodge bonus, but the increased weight is tricky.

I have a pretty huge breeding kink, and I’ve been thinking more and more lately about having the perfect little housewife, completely dedicated to serving me and our family, and bearing my children.
I’ve always wanted a really big family, and I’d love to chat with someone who has similar desires. I adore the idea of keeping someone pregnant for years, having one after another, until our house is full and we’re not able to have any more. They’d constantly be either pregnant or trying for the next one, and would be just as excited as I am every time we get a positive test.
I’m also very much a dominant, and would love to collar someone and control every aspect of their being: choosing their clothing, assigning them tasks, and of course, breeding them whenever I see fit.
I’d also like to add the disclaimer that I am not someone who thinks all women need to fill this type of role! I’m very much looking for someone who also wants this, and will give their full and enthusiastic consent.
If you’re interested in talking more about this, feel free to send me a chat.

Hello all, I'm looking for a game where I can use spreadsheets and calculations. I've never found a game that fits exactly what I want for this kind of game, and I'm not really sure what to look for. I'd say the closest that I've enjoyed is Dragon Tax Return Simulator 2015. I want a set of rules to follow, and then data entry of some kind based on calculations I do using the rules of the system. Preferably the rules would become more complex slowly over time, like how Papers Please introduces new mechanics/things to remember as the days go on in game. I'd even take a game where I need to use Google Sheets/Excel to solve in game things, although I have no idea how that would work. I know this might be an odd request but I'd appreciate any recommendations!!

Hi! Thanks in advance for your time, as this post ended up kinda long. I want to preface by warning English is not my first Language and Im also on mobile, so I apologize for any weird grammar and formatting.
I recently adopted a 2 month old Chow and I must admit it's been tougher than I expected. I've wanted a dog for some time and I researched a lot on a breed that would be better suited for my living condition (I live in an apartment and work from home 4 out of 5 days a week), which is how I landed on Chows, since they're known to be lazy and not too loud. My biggest concern before adopting has been proper training and socialization, since I know they have problems in that area, but in the two weeks I've had her my puppy has behaved well around strangers.
What really took me by surprise was how active she is. I knew I would have to do a lot of work by adopting young instead of an adult, but since most guides on Chow Chow care are focused on socialization and grooming, and again, this breed is known to be lazy, I wasnt really expecting how demanding she would be in this area. When she wants to play and I'm busy she barks and growls at me, and I don't know if I should ignore her to teach her out of this or give in and play until she tires out. I admit I got a case of the puppy blues when I realized just how much more energy she had. I should have known puppies would be puppies, I just thought she would be more lazy from the get go.
She's also very violent when she plays. She doesn't bite my hands on purpose, only as a side effect of me holding a toy she wants, and I make sure to yelp every time. She also tries to bite my feet but leaves them alone when I complain. What really worries me is that she likes to bite my hair and face, this morning when I leaned down to pick up a toy she jumped HIGH and bit my nose, and that actually hurt!
I fear the jumping might be my fault. On the first few days of getting her I noticed she would jump if I swung a toy by her and I thought it was cute and a good way to tire her out, so I've been playing like that ever since, and now she can jump pretty high. I didnt even know Chows were jumpers.
My question then is this: is this normal behavior for a Chow Chow puppy? Should I play along with the jumping and barking or are those behaviors I shouldn't encourage? Were your chows this playfoul, loud and demanding as puppies? Will she grow out of it, or should I just get used to it?
Thanks again for taking the time to read this. I appreciate anything else you can tell me about your Chow's puppy stage.

So my dog has a long history of health problems. This was to be expected d/t his breed. He continually sits on the floor and twists and scoots his butt while barking, sometimes up to 20 minutes at a time and multiple times a day. I know this behavior is a common presentation for the needing their anal glands expressed, however, since this behavior started about 6-7 months ago I have taken him in to have them expressed. Each time the vet tells me they are nearly empty and there's nothing there.
We got him when he was 1.5 years of age. (He was given to us by someone who no longer wanted to care for him d/t previous health issues before he was in our care. I have no record of what that was). His bowel movements are currently normal, so I am not suspecting a recurrence of whip worms because last time he has them he had loose stools as well as severe pica and wanted to go outside to eat dirt. He hasn't been doing any of that recently. He is currently on a strict u/D diet and fresh water is kept in his bowl at all times to encourage drinking. He takes carprofen 75 mg PRN for management of osteoarthritis and that ends up being about every 2-3 days if I notice he isn't getting around as good. He also is on monthly Nexgard and Interceptor plus. He also has a pretty deep tail pocket under his little nub and 1-2 times a week I take a chlorohex wipe and just do a quick swipe to get any haidebris out to prevent a skin infections. Skin folds are wiped daily.
So the question, is my dog just masturbating or something (like stimulating his prostate)? Or is there something else potentially wrong? If it's something pleasurable like some sort of prostate stimulation, then fine, whatever. But if he's in some sort of discomfort then neither his current vet nor I have any idea what's going on and I don't want to keep letting this continue if something is seriously causing him discomfort.

Today i finished got for the first time, first season for me wasnt that interesting but I really liked daenerys so i kept watching it bcs of her and dragons, it started becoming intersting to me after they killed the starks and I was more into it but Daenerys was still my fav character. When she burned the whole city I knew she was going to die bcs there is no other way to conclude her story but idk it feels so wrong, when the character is most of the seasons good and the writers made us like and in the 2 final hours they made her burn the entire city for whatever reason, I was really hoping she would sit on the throne but instead she got killed, idk I am very sad for her and i wish I didnt even start watching it, what are your opinions?
