What I don't like about Vocal
I don't think Vocal understands their audience. Multiple people have said they have spent their last dollar on a subscription. They did this because Vocal offered hope in the form of elusive prize money, received only after entering subscription-exclusive content.

Household Antibiotics
Note before we start: I've done my best to link to credible studies for every single ingredient I mention. I'm not a scientist and only made it to the second round of highschool biology. I'm sharing this because I think it might be helpful for those who are short on cash, who would like some relief before they are able to leave the house to see the doctor, or who get sick at a time or in an area where a doctor is unreachable. Please double check everything I say, I am not a doctor.

Why I'm not looking forward to Horizon Forbidden West
Due to the nature of this post, all profits will go to Native causes. When I started playing Horizon: Zero Dawn, it was a welcome escape. The Texas blackout left me reeling, and all I knew about it was that the player character is a young woman who uses a bow and arrow, and that she knew about the curvature of the earth due to the setting of the sun in spite of her old-timey setting.

Why Mass Effect: Andromeda is the Best Mass Effect Game
I liked it most. That's it. Seriously though, I don't really understand why Mass Effect is hailed as a paragon of video games. There were times--especially in the first game--that I thought the dialogue was bland, or stale. Liara in particular seemed very flat to me: like someone tried to project their idea of a woman onto a character, rather than basing her on an actual woman. She clearly existed for fanboy appeal, and I love that some people love her--I don't stand for character hate, as a general rule, and even hesitated to call the dialogue bland--but I think her fans are very brave to look past the obsequious pandering and love her anyway.
