  Eh. Say what you will about Valve, but The Verge knew the risks of publishing. Even if technical issues allowed for legal loopholes, intentionally ignoring the spirit of the agreement is valid grounds for bans.

  Starting by saying, I haven’t seen this movie so this is an outsiders opinion.

  This appears to be completely different than your standard super hero fatigue. Some movies are just bad.

  That said, the Groots things you’re expressing aren’t new. Action movies have always had dumb plots filmed with one liners all over. The feelings you’re expressing is that Super Hero movies are just also action movies. Personally, I find them more engaging and entertaining than non-super hero action movies specifically because they aren’t trying to be realistic but also have a continuity that I enjoy. That’s not a general populace thing. That’s a specific reason I enjoy them.

  The minions complaint is just super weird, though. Those movies are tailored to kids. Literally zero adults should be taking them as more than a kids movie.

  The was a 7 year gap between 1 and 2. 1 was a bit cheesey but was a pretty solid low-sci-fi for '84s abilities.

  Stardew Valley is probably the best recommendation being made. 85 percent of the game happens with zero combat and the combat that does happen is pretty simple.

  I will say that doing something interactive to try to get to sleep can easily back fire on you if you find the activity too engaging. You may be better off trying to read a book or taking a small dose of melatonin about an hour before bed.

  Melatonin is the chemical your body produces to help you go to sleep. If you go this route just be careful to start with a small dose and work your way up if you find you need more. And also, don’t take it too late because it will make it difficult to get up on time if you do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Question] Switch and Deck users, which games do you still prefer to play on switch?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I own both and my wife only has a switch.

  I play any Nintendo exclusives or indie games we are going to play in parallel on the switch. Anything that I will enjoy in handheld other than that I play on the Deck.
