I haven't had trouble swallowing pills, so I don't how helpful this is, but it's something that still made it easier for me: I used to try to swallow the pill by just pushing it with water on an initially empty throat. Once I started swallowing the water first, then letting the pill ride between gulps in the stream's momentum, it became more comfortable and automatic.

I second the curiosity. What would it look like? Sudden crouching? Paralyzing indecision?

I have been having the same issue tonight, glad to know I'm not the only one.

That's the next level of what turned me away from Spotify the very first time I used it years ago. Their ads would pause if you muted the audio or even lowered the volume too close to muted. Sure, I could take off my headphones, but it was a matter of principle at that point.

The particular one in this post seems to not have been found in the wild, as the source image is the same as the product listing on the Obvious Plant website.

I haven't yet seen a post of someone genuinely coming across the products in the wild. But I do know that these do get randomly planted in stores, except for food items, which are removed right after any nominal pictures in order to avoid legal trouble.

Objectively, I fully believe what you said. I just wish I could subjectively accept it in my heart as well and no longer feel worry about what others think.

Admittedly, there is value in being aware of social expectations and its nuances. What I want is to find out how to have the sensibility without the anxiety.

I read his story in graphic novel format some years ago, and it left me impressed as well. It's titled They Called Us Enemy.

That's good to know about the main quest objectives. Thanks!

Good point. Then it's fortunate that I just got my PC build done!

Any special games in mind that you want to try?

Thanks! I really want to finally try out Skyrim. I've postponed it for years because I just know I'll get sucked into it hardcore, lol.

I only played Battlefront 2 a little. Is there a co-op campaign? Or going to fight each other in the PvP?

I'm not sure, didn't think about that! I never played it, only watched a roommate play, I'll have to check if we'll be able play in split-screen.

As for the Zelda, for me, if Breath of the Wild was 10/10 then Tears of the Kingdom is 20/10.

Now that is one high bar! You just got me even more excited for TOTK than I already was!

I'm still playing Breath of the Wild because I never finished it on Master Mode. I can't believe I waited so long for the sequel, yet the release snuck up on me! In a way, it kind of prolongs the excitement. Thanks for holding back the spoilers!

How are you liking Tears of the Kingdom in general? Better? The same? Complementary? From the trailers, I was worried it might become a bit gimmicky, but BOTW also adds a good level of trust for me.

Besides that, I literally just finished my first real gaming PC build yesterday! I didn't even have time to do install anything, so work today felt like I was a kid having to go to school on Christmas afternoon. I'll soon install Star Wars Battlefront 2, one of the few games my non-gamer wife ever binged, that way we can play together.
