Mastodon, I know you probably don't care but my friend gave me an Xbox One for free, I ordered FH2, I played it from 9-4 on Friday, and I came to the conclusion that yes, Forza Horizon 2 is the best simcade racer, above NFS 2015 or The Crew, or even Gran Turismo 6. The quality is just off the charts in that game, and nothing really comes close it except *maybe* Driveclub, but in that game you're stuck on a track and the cars don't drift. Sorry, I'm a traitor, #PlayStation. #ForzaHorizon2

I will teach you to be a fisher of TV.
On the other hand, the #XboxOne is broken by design. They don't even let you change your home screen background without having an internet connection. It just says "No." Nor can you create separate users on it, even though there's no reason you shouldn't be able to.
@micrackbiron Hi Cats, hru? / Still hanging in there?
@Mastodon The James Bond theme, by Monty Norman. Listening to it makes me feel like a spy, and I’m there with James Bond. 🕵🏻♀️ And that’s what a good soundtrack should do: make you feel like you’re a part of the world, in all of its richness. Goldfinger is also really catchy. #BestBondSong

And you also resist the temptation to turn in on yourself, since that's what we all feel like doing when things aren't going well--and if you fail, you try again.
So #WDYD? You break the problem down into smaller steps: 1) Go to church/synagogue/mosque--or wherever, and 2) You avoid going to places / doing things associated with that mood. Then 3) You work on service and justice; relieving individual #suffering directly, and making changes to systems that relieve suffering on a larger scale.
I realize that other people might not have that issue, but it's an issue for me. And why is it an issue? H.A.L.T. @frankie hungry, angry, lonely, tired. When you're any of those things, you're way more likely to give in to temptation, and because I spend so much time alone, that leads to being angry (anger leads to hate... leads to...), which leads to all kinds of other things, but the end result is that you're not gonna resist whatever temptation is there. ☃️🎅🏻
Some aren't so obvious, like "how do I spend the next hour of my life?" For me, the reason that's not obvious is because my "sinful" choice would be just to spend that hour playing video games, every time. And the reason that's not a good choice is because it doesn't help anyone, in any way--it doesn't relieve suffering--and it's for my own comfort.
