Now that you mention it, I was a soccer ref when I was 15. You’re right, it probably varies by state. I guess “child labor” is a pretty broad term that could include delivering newspapers and processing chicken on a factory floor.

According to a couple news stories I’ve seen pop up from time to time, we have child labor in the US too. It’s not legal and the children are usually the children of illegal immigrants. Maybe it’s sort of the same deal over there i.e. desperate people doing desperate things despite the norm.

Luckily, you don’t have to be good at something to enjoy it.

Hunt and peck, allegedly.

It’s incredibly good. I know the phrase “better than it has any right to be” is over-used, but in this case I believe it applies. It’s a survival crafting game made by Obsidian Entertainment. Yes, it’s the same team that made Fallout: New Vegas. Though not perfect, it excels in ambience and design. You really feel like you’re in a sequel to “Honey I Shrunk the Kids”. It has decent progression, a pretty damn good story, and combat mechanics that hit that “tough but fair” vibe juuuuust right. Unfortunately, the characters can be a little annoying and it’s only up to four players. These are my only main gripes as it checks all the right boxes for a survival crafting game in my book:

1. Combat is fun
2. Exploring is fun
3. Base-building is fun

I legitimately enjoyed my time in Grounded more than Valheim. I also tried a similar game called Smalland and couldn’t get over the janky combat. If you like survival crafting games, don’t miss this one. Oh and there’s a slider that turns down the fidelity on spiders so you can play it even if you have arachnophobia. You might still have nightmares of wolf spiders though.

QFC used to make seltzer water flavored like root beer, Dr. Pepper (it was called "Hint of the Doctor Flavor which is downright hilarious), and cola. The product line was discontinued due to lack of popularity and I miss it every day.

I am also here to rep Corpse Recover No. 2.

It’s very refreshing. Gin, lemon juice, lillet, cointreaux, and a touch of absinthe.

When you remain as the last Nazi on Facebook, you can finally report yourself and then it will be all over.
