I feel this pretty acutely. But I've tried to change the way I approach it. When I randomly remember my cringe moments, and I start feeling like I'm going to be obsessing, I try to think about how I'd react if it was a friend of mine telling me about some stupid thing they did forever ago instead of me. That can be enough sometimes for me to stop and say (sometimes out loud, it helps) "That was forever ago and yeah, it was stupid, but you learned." And it helps. I can't always move past it, but it seems like it works more often than it doesn't. If that makes sense.

Yeah, you did some stupid shit. But guess what! If you did it more than 7 years ago, biologically speaking you're technically a whole-ass different person now. I don't know if this will help anyone, but I hope it does.

Rock over London, Rock on Chicago!

Daisy for Kart. Daisy for Smash.

Hi, I'm Daisy.

(Jokes aside, probably the closest thing I have to a main in Smash is Hero)

To be fair,

spoilerHow else would you portray Lust if not hyper-sexualized?

+1 for FMA: Brotherhood though, that shit slaps and given the above commenter's statement I also think they'd like it

Scarlet Maiden is great too if you're a fan of Rogue Legacy.

...uh, I've heard.

Just as the founding fathers intended.

Deflection via humor would be my guess

FunkFPV, is that you?

Kidding. Sounds like you're still mostly winning though, good on ya.

I'm only tangentially familiar with this, and more information may have come out lately, but I don't think the above comment was related to anything he's done in film lately.

Recently Tenacious D did a show (shortly after a shooting at a Trump rally) and Kyle Gass was presented with a birthday cake. He is reported to have said "Please don't miss next time" before blowing out the candles. Jack Black has stated that all plans and tours for Tenacious D have been put on hold indefinitely and that he was "completely blindsided" by this move from Kyle. Some fans have themselves claimed to be blindsided by Jack's response, arguing that he should have had Kyle's back.

I tried to relay that with as little bias as possible, but I am no journalist. For my part I understand cancelling tours - saying that kind of thing tends to put a target on your back for people with more guns than brain cells, but I think cancelling EVERYTHING Tenacious D related may have been a step too far. Also, again, more information may have come out since I read about this.

I have this one too and I love it. All it's really missing is a way to remap the back paddles to non-controller buttons and it'd be an easy 10/10. As it is, though, 8.5 or 9, still very very good.

Speaking as someone who has recently gone through this headache: if you're fortunate enough to have your games on their own partition, you will probably want to migrate said partition over to a Linux filesystem (ext4, btrfs, etc.) sooner rather than later. Particularly for Steam games - it's possible to mount NTFS partitions on Linux and you might even be able to get the partition to mount as read/write somewhat reliably, but getting Steam on Linux to parse those directories and read the installed games is.. ... well, it isn't worth it, frankly. Easier to just bite the bullet and be done with it.

That was the most difficult part of transitioning to Linux for me, though. Most everything else either worked out of the box or was a breeze to set up. Even the printer - go figure. Anyway. You got this!
