  • I talked about this a lot with my partner since we had been living together for a couple of years before we decided to get married.

    Marriage, to us, is really just an external expression of the love that we share and the commitment we have already made to each other. The marriage itself is not the commitment, just a statement of it. There are lots of members in our families who disagree and say that marriage itself is the commitment, but then again they’re the same ones who have been divorced or who have extremely unhealthy relationships with their spouses.

    Leaning on a piece of paper with your signature on it as the reason you’re staying with someone is idiotic; paper tears extremely easily. I choose to love my partner, not because a paper tells me that I chose that long ago, but because I wake up every day and make that decision.

    Why get married? I dunno, if it doesn’t mean the same thing to you, then don’t, and I say that with no judgement at all. If you care more about the person than you do about the idea if marriage (like I do) and you gain nothing from a marriage, then don’t worry about it and just focus on the person, yourself, and the relationship you both share.















  • Strong, STRONG recommendation for checking out Hypercharge: Unboxed.

    It’s an amazing mix of aesthetic from Army Men: Sarge’s Heroes on the N64 and the Toy Story 2 Action Game with the PvP gameplay of the former and PvE gameplay of any famous shooter from the past 20 years.

    To top it off, the level of detail put into every damn corner of the game is to die for. Customizable action figure player characters, all the NPC enemies are recognizable toys that react exactly as you expect (i.e. Beyblades that spin out into pieces when destroyed, and plastic soldiers that melt when shot with a flamethrower), and the environments are all lovingly designed and decorated. It’s the perfect modern couch-co-op game.
