I know I wont win anything anyways.

Go for it, you can do a few entries in a few minutes. I used to feel the same until I won a twitter competition that worked in the same vein.

Okay, 12 social media entries and I'll try the rising storm gaming thing.

Super worth trying. Only takes a moment.
Plus, anyone who signs up through that link gets me one extra entry

Now if I were a smart man I'd extort my entry saying if anything is won I'd have a stake in it, lol.

Pokemon AND Digimon on there.
Fuck it, I'm buying a Switch!

Welcome to the club!

While you're waiting for Pokemon and Digimon, be sure to check out Mario Odyssey to help pass the time faster. One of the most fun video game experiences I've had in years; my highest possible recommendation. And BotW too, if you like Zelda.

For you, the day Bison graced your Power Rangers crossover was the most important day of your life. But for him, it was Tuesday Thursday.

TBH I think I will probably save my money up a little first.
I mean the thing is till £270 upwards here. (Equal to $351)

Well I have heard it's a good idea to get a screen saver for the switch, if you ever take it for a walk.

Its more because the dock itself can scratch the screen. The screen is plastic, which makes it damned near unbreakable, but very likely to get scratched.

I think I played 10 dollars for two tempered glass protectors and never had to worry about it again

What size screen is the Switch, 7 inches?

Just search Switch screen protector. It will be properly fitted.

Mine is This one.

Works great.

Ayy, finally managed to catch my doctor during office hours. Get to see the cardio Monday. Been feeling a little better lately, so if my heart is okay, might try to start pushing myself again. Can't see the gastro until August sadly, but so long as blood isn't coming out of me, fairly sure I'll live. I might have a nice day soon at this rate.

So today is 'National Moon Day'. I've heard of stupid things, but I get it, Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon on this day, but why not 'national stepped on a new world day' or 'national explore a new frontier day'? Having one day out of the year we recognize the moon is just stupid.

These days, even recognizing the moon is a thing has not to be taken for granted. Sadly.

Watching clips of Masterchef UK vs US is really making clear how much I dislike American editing. The edited tension, the music stings, the out of context cutaways for drama quotes, it's all so irritating. Great, I'm being emotionally manipulated poorly. I have a mother for that TV show, give me something better.

Hells Kitchen, for example, would be so much more worth watching if they included some of the raw footage from the moments they never show. Ramsay instructing them, setting shit up, doing things correctly, etc.

Watching a video of the ESA speedrunning marathon, the runner is making crude jokes, swearing, delivering banter, the chat's going wild. A shame the event is absolutely minuscule in comparison to GDQ, it's refreshing to have some soul.

I respectfully disagree. Things like National Balloon Day and National Hot Dog Day, those are stupid, devoid of any real meaning or purpose. Remembering the first moon landing is not. Landing on the moon wasn’t just important for the USA or the Cold War era, it was a huge win and massive milestone for humanity as a whole, a turning point in our history, our science, and ourselves. That moment inspired generations of kids and adults alike the world over, then and now, proving mankind had the means and the will to leave the cradle of our planet and step foot on alien soil, the first step of hopefully many. It was symbolic of how we could accomplish anything if we put our minds to it and had the courage to go out into the great unknown. We could turn science fiction into science fact. A triumph of brilliant minds, technology, and the human spirit. Its high on our list of accomplishments as a species, right up there with discovering fire, the invention of the wheel, harnessing electricity, or splitting the atom. That’s worthy of remembrance, I think. One day of recognition out of the year seems perfectly normal. But calling it something like "National Stepped On A New World Day" or "National Explore A New Frontier Day" would be way too long & wordy, and too vague & nonspecific. "National Moon Day" is pithy: short and precise. Brevity is better for assigning names and titles to dates and days.

I respectfully disagree.

But calling it national moon day lumps it in with the national sprinkled donut days and national groom your poodle days. It wasn't something that existed until a short while ago. Nixon created national moon landing day, but they took the 'landing' out of it. All these dumb national days are obvious what they're about but moon day begs the question 'what is it actually about'? Unfortunately american school systems are off in July and the only holiday anyone celebrates in the summer is Forth of July. Kids were't forced to make Moon projects for school and write Moon essays and share Moon Pie on the day we should celebrate man's landing on the Moon. They took the importance of the day and stripped it from the title. You know today is national vanilla ice cream day? And tomorrow is national Amelia Earhart day, national counsins day, national drive-thru day, national tequila day and national thermal engineer day? Do you think more people will be excited to celebrate the role Amelia played in forwarding the not only flight but woman's role in exploring the world, or tequila? Amelia, the Moon, the meaning behind celebrating them is lost because of this craze about celebrating everything. Drive-thrus? Do we have to celebrate that?

I celebrate the moon every night. I take a good minute or two to stop what I'm doing and find it and stare at it. It was next to Jupiter the other night and will be next to Saturn the next. It's a gorgeous waxing Moon. (By the way, Mars is in opposition so it will outshine any star and Jupiter in the next week. Look for a bright orange dot rising in the south east as the sun sets. It's the most brightest since 2003 and maybe the brightest for a very long while.) Anyway, I understand what 'national moon day' is suppose to be about and I know all too well what it meant for generations and will mean for generations to come.

I agree with you that having a day to reflect on the scientific and political and human importance of the event is something we should all take time to do. I even agree with the astronomers and scientists who want to make the public aware of an entire day celebrating what the moon has meant for furthering science and man's next step into exploring the solar system. I'm just upset that as someone who has spent his life studying and observing the moon and stars and the planets as a hobby just heard for the very first time that there's a day to celebrate all of that and it's on the same level of importance as lolli-pops. Sigh, why do I get all riled up on the semantics of things? Must be my INTP.

Don't we have a moon day once a week?

I'm not trying to make a stupid wordplay joke, isn't that literally what Monday means?

Pretty much.
The word monday itself comes from Middle English as "Moneday" which came from Old English as "Mōnandæg", which was a translation of "dies lunae" which was Latin for "Day of the Moon".

Which is all because Sunday was originally the first day of the week as it was named for the sun, the second for the moon. But us moderners have moved to monday being the first day of the week over time.
Which is why some people get confused as to why some work places have their shift rota's posted as Sunday-Saturday rather than Monday - Sunday.

All the days of the week were originally named from the sun, moon and visible planets, which is why there are seven of them. All of them were gods which is why we have days named after gods. Friday is from a norse god Frja which is the same day as Venus for the latin gods. Thors day, Mercury day. Jupiter day, Oden's day. All gods. Every day.

I have often jokingly wondered if people in New York in the Marvel universe have "Superhero Damage" covered as part of their standard homeowners insurance, or is it like flood insurance in New Orleans and you have to buy a whole separate policy for that because the risk is so high that nobody wants to insure you>

Well there is an organisation in the marvel universe that goes around fixing all the damage cause by the Supers, it's called Damage Control (we saw a version of them in MCU in the start of Spider-man homecoming) if I remember correctly, can't remember who funds them in the comics.

So the comic book writers did make sure to adresse the issue.

I see now that I misunderstood you in your first comment. I thought you were saying the basic concept was stupid in and of itself, not that you want more awareness/education raised for it it and more emphasis and importance placed on it so people stop taking it for granted or forget it due to apathy and ignorance. My bad!

I still disagree in regards to the name, but I champion your right to disagree with me.
