yeah.. I'd watch this! I mean, he does sort of go John Wick on everyone in his way lol. Sony developing Ghost of Tsushima movie with John Wick director WWW.POLYGON.COM Chad Stahelski is reportedly attached to direct the project

Yes, well, I don't think we're going to put out 30+ wolves on a boat and bring them over, no? There are plenty of things for the new wolf pack to hunt on the new island. Because, if we get attacked by Fulings, having a pack of wolves to help would be nice. Also, we need a Lox den... I want to be taming some LOX! They are like cuter, giant pigs... and more useful.

You make it sound it it was your idea to go poke at the Fuling camp. I just wanted to get the Barley and Flax. You told me to stop wandering into the Plains. Slag that. Who was there sniping from the Meadows and the giant rock from the start of the game day all by herself with her poison and obsidian arrows dressing in nothing but Troll armor and an iron helmet? Me. This person here. Who figured out that a good way to eliminate a handful of Fulings was to have them chase you into the Lox herd? Me. This person here. Who was oddly surprised to find some backup when it was down to like 6 Fulings after the Fuling Brute, the 2 Fuling Shamans, and a mess of other Fulings were dead with their gold and iron everyone? Yup, me again. Don't wander into the Plains, he said. Be careful, you're near the Plains, he said. Long distance sniping skills FTW. But yeah, totally appreciative for you to come at the end to help clear the camp, so we can have grains. Love ya.

I was doing so well with not having 1 song stuck on repeat... then this came up in my queue.

3/24/2021 Workout 2 Rounds: 20 Leg Lifts 30 Lunges 40 Flutter Kicks 50 Air Squats Thoughts: Lol. I did not realize until now that each movement was an increment of 10. This... this was a workout that was basically meant for me lol. Shale still finished before me, but not by much longer. Shale, Sally, and I all finished within 10 seconds of each other. I got scolded for taking a break and drinking water between a few movements lol. Obviously, the leg lifts and the flutter kicks were a touch difficult. My core is something I need to improve on, so I was grateful for this workout. It was funny after the workout how both Shale and I were all, "my thighs.. oh my thighs"... speed burning through 50 air squats is not ideal, but it's the only way to get through that many haha. As for food, the past week, I've added my whey protein to my coffee drink in the morning. Like I said before, I cannot be sore 2 days after a workout. That means, I need to do something about it. BCAAs and whey for the win on this. I'm not sore on the 2nd day, which is when I do another workout. Goal accomplished. However, my weight is staying steady... and I'm hoping that's more about retaining muscle/not having muscle loss and losing fat... and gaining muscle in place of the fat loss. If I don't drop 2.5lbs by end of month, I'll miss out on the weigh in.. Oh wellz. The next 7 days is essentially a full rest week. We'll see how that goes on repair and minimizing inflammation from ripped muscles.

@TurboR56Mini didn't seem to like my idea of putting a portal outpost on the actual Biomass island and calling it "Death"... I mean, it's a worse place than "Despair"... And, you will die about 2.5 seconds after stepping out of the portal... Hence my suggested name for it. I also got scolded for doing a mad dash into the Plains to pick a Cloudberry. 😅

This was a fun article to read about special effects. WandaVision’s magic had to be built around MCU restrictions WWW.POLYGON.COM Behind the scenes on the series’ digital effects work

We had a nice thread going for WandaVision. Thought maybe let's start on the next one? Falcon & Winter Soldier No spoiler yet.. but I'll leave this here regarding the ending of Episode 1

Seriously... that's the best you can do? @Ophelia - welcome to FG! I'm sure Carl has told you about me. But, if he hasn't, I'm La... I try to help out around here a little. FG is filled with a bunch of fun, witty, all-around good people. Feel free to post anything about gaming (or non-gaming stuff).

3/22/2021 Workout 4 Rounds 20 Front Squats (2 rounds at 75lbs, 2 rounds at 55lbs) 10 Tuck Jumps 10 Push Press (2 rounds at 75lbs, 2 rounds at 55lbs) 10 Burpees Thoughts: This.Was.Terrible. I thought to myself before doing this, "Tuck jumps suck." I did not expect the Tuck Jumps to be my breather. Also did not want to do 75lbs for my weight. Because I knew I would be gassed. But, the argument was "You back squatted 265lbs... this is nothing." To which I retorted, "I have to push press the weight as well... as the third movement... when I'm out of breath. Strength is different than endurance! And, I don't think anyone wants to be here after 30 minutes just because I'm taking my sweet time to survive." Hahaha. Oh.my.god. So, why did it suck? It wasn't that the movements were difficult. On the contrary, I actually like all the movements, and I think the workout is a great one. But, here's the problem - as I start to freak out a little about month end weigh in, that little demon in my brain is all "no carbs for you. No carbs.. No food.. nothing for you." So, all I basically ate yesterday was my protein coffee shake, some pork rinds, half an almond horn, and my quarter of a chicken with mushrooms and brussel sprouts... which sounds like a lot? I think? I dunno. I'm a terrible judge on food quantity. I just know that I I went into the workout absolutely not ready for anything haha. And, part of me wants to redo it later. But, I have a doctor's appointment that will completely wipe me for the rest of the day... and probably some of tomorrow. P.S. You cannot live on supplements alone and still expect to perform well. Not like I didn't know that. Very much knew that. I just wasn't aware how much energy I wasn't going to have lol. Side note, Coach Tim was at the gym this morning with a client. He had heard about my new PR. Came over to me and said, "I can't believe I missed it! I wanted to see it, but I also forgot where we were in the cycle. Super proud of you! So glad we have another lifter here aside from Shale." That's always nice.

Sooooooooooooooo. It's been a minute, eh? @Tar-Eruntalion and @TurboR56Mini have a bit more of the map than I do, but I'm the one posting. Notes: Go check out the "Mountain Lodge". @Tar-Eruntalion , @TurboR56Mini , and @FallenDark200 did some amazing work there... and because I felt the need to have pets, it is now overrun with wolves. 😅 They're friendly. Promise. There's just a lot of them now... Snow Lodge is pretty cool. Especially if you need to hunt Drakes and Golems. Because they are literally right outside the lodge. Location for the 4th Boss (Moder) has been found. He's East. If you find yourself exploring where I have been, you may start finding random campfires. @TurboR56Mini stumbled upon a few of my random campires. I thought it was funny that he was surprised by them. So, fires everywhere now! Especially on top of Troll Caves and Dungeons (i'm not clearing any. So, feel free)... and near abandoned buildings. Or as a trail to one of our outposts/bases/camps.

Based on the footage released, I don't think the PC requirements are high. Until there are ways to get Quell into non-Quell developed games, I don't think it will require much than a basic computer spec. I mean, it can probably run on a basic Chromebook or Surface hah. I'd like to see Nintendo take this tech and run with it like they did with their Wii Fit.

Ohhh.. How I wish we lived in the age of Star Trek holodecks! I would really never need to leave home ever again hahaha. But, this does look cool, and I would love to see it paired with a running platform: Part of my interest in fitness is that I want to be somewhat capable like how my favorite characters are. Granted, there are athletic feats that they do that are highly unrealistic, but I want to attempt to get somewhat in the range of it. Playing Horizon Zero Dawn re-piqued my interest in wall/rock climbing and learning how to shoot a bow and arrow. Various superhero shows keep my interest in combat martial arts active. Honestly, I probably wouldn't hate cardio so much if I was actually running away from something lol. It's probably the only time you will see me run. Or, unless it's on the soccer field and the person I'm going toe-to-toe with is something I highly dislike.

Has anyone seen this?? Now, I'm a big supporter of having proper form (and footwork), especially for fighting, but this looks.. awesome. Quell | Real gaming. Real exercise. Zero compromise.

Yup. We, @TurboR56Mini and I, have watched a bunch of it. I love watching Doug Marcaida just judge and annihilate blades... yes, because he's a Filipino, and if it's one thing we know, it's how to kill people with sharp objects if necessary. He's a Kali expert (the knife fighting part of Filipino Martial Arts). These are the types of reality TV I enjoy.. Things about skill. Not really drama lol. But, skill.

3/20/2021 Workout Back Squat Workshop (last day) Find 1 rep max Thoughts: New PR --> 265lbs back squat (original all time PR was 260lbs. This cycle, I started at 225lbs 1 rep max) So, that was fun. I did not think I would get to 265lbs. I thought, "Let's just hit 235lbs." Why? Because i'm down 14lbs from the start of the workshop, and weight loss tends to affect strength gains... so I wanted to keep my expectations at a place where I wouldn't be so disappointed with myself. When I got to 235lbs and did it, Coach James said, "Let's throw on 15lbs plates. That looked too easy like you could jump squat it." I said, "You want a 30lb jump between sets? Are you trying to kill me?" He said, "It will make me feel better. You said your original PR was 260lbs. Let's see if we can set a new one." I said, "260lbs was like 5 years ago. This year is 225lb. And you want me to go to 265lbs for the next rep?" He said, "It's not a true 1 rep max until you fail." Mmkay. That was... challenging. I haven't sort of scream through a rep in a long time. But, it got done. Coach James wanted me to put on the 2.5lb plates next. I said, "Let's take the win at 265lbs. You and I both know that was difficult." Coach Liz said, "We should have video'ed that. It looked so bad ass with your colored hair." (Yes, I colored my hair red and blue this week in celebration of not needing to go back into the office until September) Now, we have 2 weeks off until the squat clean workshop. This is where I will need to do a lot of work. Squats are easy. Cleans... cleans are a different game. Also, in celebration of an all-time new PR, I bought some St. Joseph's cakes and split one with darling husband. I partially regret it.. But, it's something I have been looking for for years (because I had no clue what they were called until someone showed me a photo of them.. and I went, "That's what they are called??!! I have been trying to figure it out for YEARS!") Good times.

You know what I kept looking at while being amazed at the graphics and movement? Her sneakers. Like.. She gets a cape thing... but keeps the sneakers. Gonna tell me that there's nothing more durable and fitting for her battles and acrobats than her fashion tennis shoes? But yeah, totally excited to play this.
