  • I just picked up RetroSpace yesterday. It’s basically System Shock and Bioshock mashed together. Wake up aboard a generation ship as a janitor, try and figure out what happened. Along the way, you purchase genetic mutations. Die and you’re remade with defects, like uncontrollable cursing. Very fun so far with a good sense of humor.

    I also let my friends talk me into playing FFXIV, and just finished up the Ultima fight. This is the first MMO I’ve dedicated major time to since Guild Wars.




  • My wife’s is one that is. They’ve got no new blood coming in and a pastor that was intentionally sabotaging them, driving their most dedicated and supportive members out. No attempts at community outreach or retention. Also our state conference literally cares about money more than the god they supposedly serve.

    They just got told that they can either sell the church and parsonage, keep some of the money from its sale to bring to the church they’ll merge with, or the conference will shut them down, sieze the property, sell it, and force them to merge with the other church anyway, but without the money.

    It’s no wonder people have been bailing for decades. Totally sounds like something worth being a part of and associated with, right?
