I kind of tore up my shoulder weightlifting. Which is sad considering how weak I still am. It doesn't hurt, but it pops a lot. So, I'm going to discontinue my routine until it stops doing that and have it looked at.
I'm sure that I'll be even weaker again by the time it's better.
The good news is I'm running faster now. I'm just not sure what I'm going to do without upper body work.

You don't need to be told this, but don't do f*ck all with your shoulder/upper body till you get it checked out.
So many horrible life long injuries occur from doing tiny, seemingly harmless actions.

Ah yes, the revered Black Correctness, or as they Ebonically put it, "Keepin' it Real." Perry suffers that affliction, as does his nemesis, Spike Lee. Let's really piss Shelton off, shall we? I can draw a straight line from Perry's stage plays/movies to Spike Lee's School Daze. As I wrote during BHM 2011, School Daze is a glorious hot mess. It is full of Perry's audaciousness, but tethered by Lee's directorial skill and Ernest Dickerson's glorious cin-tog. In Daze, Lee is speaking directly and solely to Black folks--probably for the last time in Lee's career--and like Perry, his audience is a specific set of Folks. I didn't go to a historically Black college, but I knew enough of them to follow even if I couldn't appreciate it fully.
Perry and Lee also share the desire to mock and reconstruct bougie Negroes. You can be a success, but it will cost you your nappy soul if you don't have God in a Perry film, or a dark-skinned mate in some of Lee's work. Lee's corrective--that thing designed to set you on the right path--is, of course, Spike Lee the director. Perry's corrective is usually his alter ego, the gun-totin', kid-slappin' Madea.
I really think Madea scares "the enlightened Negro" because she reminds them of that which they have "escaped." She's that reminder that, no matter how far you get in the majority's world, you still have dark colored clothing in your closet. Like a chitlin' circuit comedian, Madea is pure Black id. She is not polite, rarely goes to church, smokes, and reminds every single Black person of somebody they know. Madea tries my last nerve, just like the family members she reminds me of, and that's why I'm not a big fan. And after seeing Madea's Big Happy Family on bootleg today, I think I finally get why Madea is so important to Perry, and why she might be harder to give up than Whitney's crack:
Tyler Perry is the victimized character in his films, and Madea is his personal superhero.
She is what the therapist I go to for my own childhood traumas refers to as "a protector identity." In portraying this protector, Perry is saving himself. Surely, God will deliver Perry's characters, but He occasionally has avenging angels.

Everything going on in Tyler Perry's work is speaking to experiences so foreign to me it might as well be in another language

From the outside looking in, even having grown up in a mostly black neighborhood, Tyler Perry's stuff just seems so....cringe-worthy, in the same way intelligent southerners find The Blue Collar Comedy stuff cringe-worthy.
and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them
but they're listening to every word I say

What I consider to be the most interesting point of this game is the story mode. Before playing an Arcs game, I was totally unaware of a story that was so detailed. As can be seen from the sprites, the game takes on the anime style and as such has an anime storyline, full of twists and turns. I suppose if you aren't a big fan of anime, don't let it hinder your enjoyment of the game itself.
Why yes, guy on GoG. When I think of Guilty Gear, the first thing I think of is the story.
need your advisement on a matter of a royal mission against the heathens in Spain
is
is that you playing as sicily
anyway, two things
1. I can't pass through Muslim territory without declaring war, right? So could I declare war on another Muslim nation and use that to get in position? I'm guessing no, but it's worth a shot.
2. What could I get by occupying the Murabitid King's personal provinces? Just the titles to those two provinces, or could I force other things as well?
Guys, I'm doing a report in my Chinese class on that China's ghost cities news report.
Does anyone have a link to that gallery of images that someone found?
I just google searched for the cities listed in the report.
Most of the different articles use just about the same set of photos.
Just get some clearly not related city scape images and paste in some ghosts. Add a little disclaimer in tiny text size saying the images are from an un-vetted source.

I think the use of auteur theory to posit that he's a really fucked up dude is pretty heads on. And it's not often you hear a lot of nice things said about School Daze.

Tell me about it.
What if he is a cyborg sellsword?
It makes me laugh. I mean they are all kind of jerks but they are the kind of jerks I grew up with as friends.
Ah feral come on dude, you're supposed to warn people about that first.
If an anteater can be all "come at me bro" then imagine how badass an armadillo can be!
the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
I'm sure that I'll be even weaker again by the time it's better.

Normal people call those canker sores. Mouth ulcers makes it sound like you slept with one too many floozies.
but they're listening to every word I say

Run away from instead of coming at bros
duh
My dickshunary tells me canker sore (ok, it took me three tries to not write "cancer") is American English.
Well, locally I suppose that's normal.
After 9/11 were all Americans brah.
Except the President. Pretty sure that birth certificate is fake.
An underwater Metroidvania with mining! And exploration! And crafting!
I'll call it Brineshaft.

No one wants to speak british english. Murica.

Welp
I've never seen more than a little Tyler Perry.

and is anyone else on Arcadian Forest server
You get free claims on any heathen ruler's territories you occupy. His titles outside of that are not going to be available.
Don't be so afraid of making mistakes in the game. You have like 450 years to undo anything you do wrong as long as you don't die.

like so.
It's not that I'm afraid of making mistakes, I just don't like spending time on something that wouldn't work.
I so wanna go urban exploring here.

I ain't afraid o' no ghosts.

I like most of Lee's movies. But the snippets I've seen of Perry tend to be cringe inducing.
