@Tessasaurus_rex I volunteered there many years ago! Congrats great fossil collecting area.

@NotThatMarsh Whoa I’m not even sure what kind of actinopt that is, but it definitely is one. Maybe a redfieldiid?

@TyrantLzrdQueen @Emerg3ncyBanana I’m only aware of Bothriolepis rex, the giant placoderm. What’s this Tyrannosaurus?

People surprised they get banned for swearing: what world do you live in? Not that hard to not type swear words in a video game, grow up.

We also have a code of conduct that every player of our games agrees to. Part of that is refraining from profanity. Freedom of Speech is between the US Govt. and it's citizens. Not between a private company and their customers. No, you aren't allowed to curse in our games. Do so, get reported, there are consequences. ^PJ

I’d love someone to explain why it’s cruel to kill and eat an animal but not a plant. Plants don’t want to die either.

Billie Eilish addresses criticism over her statement that “eating meat is inherently wrong”:

“go watch a documentary or two and some footage of what is done to the animals u claim to love and what it does to the planet u pretend to love as well. if that footage was hard for u to watch i encourage u to pls take a look at urself. like i am so tired of standing up for/having empathy for living beings being controversial. pls continue to live in a constant state of cognitive dissonance and denial and try to convince urself that ur not living a lie. mwah”

The most surefire way to make yourself more fragile, to cut your career short, is to be undisciplined about rest and recovery, to push yourself too hard, too fast, to overtrain and to pursue the false economy of overwork.

Manage the load.

Ryan Holiday is awesome, so happy that he uses his platform to speak out against injustice.

[Ryan Holiday @RyanHoliday]

They call it the mediocre to MAGA pipeline. I'd say that's an insult to mediocre.

Ryan is one of the only white men in self development to publicly speak against Trump and his corrupt circle. I have a lot of respect for him speaking up repeatedly

Many others in self development could learn a lesson from Ryan

@GameSpot Unfortunate. WoW has to reset and the commitment has to be clear and firm or it will continue to decline.
