Do you have a Samsung phone? You could maybe Try downloading Good Lock and get Nice Catch if so. That tracks things like apps that woke your screen or apps that vibrated your phone. Maybe there's something in that app that might catch it?

I don't mind having downloaded digital copies. I have a Plex server of stuff too. But sometimes it's just easier to just buy a disk rather than find a safe/working torrent just to get it digitally

I am disappointed it feels like physical media is slowly going away though. It's not only nice to have a physical collection in my opinion, but it directly supports the stuff you like, and you don't have to deal with the bs that comes with digital "ownership" or the ever changing mess that are streaming services.

I don't know if he exactly lost the rights or anything, but I know the first was a big passion project for him. Reading interviews, it sounds like he was set to direct the sequel, but the studio didn't bother booking the sets he wanted, and then tried to move things to China afterwards against his desires, so he walked.

I dunno, considering the poor reception to all the sequels, if the studio wants this to be a big franchise, I'd be throwing money at Del Toro to come back.

Give it back to Guillermo del Toro already you fucks

I guarantee they're panic making this specifically because they need to make back all the money Randy spent on the movie

I'm gonna be real, as just a casual follower of this game, I kinda assumed it already came out a while ago and was just so meh nobody talked about it. I'm shocked it's still not out yet

And the oil pump fires, and the trailer hitch fires, and the EV fires...

I'd love to know they're turning things around, but I dunno man, I still haven't seen a lot of proof. Like, what does initial quality even mean? That the car drives off the lot? Fantastic, I hope it does. I'm more concerned with after it hits 60k miles.

As far as I'm aware, Hyundai's quality control is still non-existant to questionable at best. But damn do their cars look nice

For me personally, I just am and always have been a really big introvert, and my social battery drains very quickly if I'm stuck in a social situation I'm not interested in because of it. If I start giving you signs that I'm tired of talking or that I was trying to focus on something important that you're distracting me from, and you still keep going anyways, then I start getting irritated.

If I was better at politely but firmly telling people to leave me the hell alone when that battery drains it probably wouldn't be as much of an issue, but I also don't know how to do that without feeling rude.

Anxiety is stressing about interactions and how they'll go. Worrying that you'll upset someone or say something wrong, or just even not knowing what to say next in a conversation. Thinking that people will make fun of you or hate you for who you are. Potentially even avoiding such interactions to "prevent" these manufactured possibilities.

Irritation is more like "Holy shit this dude has been rambling about inane bullshit I don't care about for the last 30 minutes and isn't getting the hints I want him to stop and go away. Please just shut the fuck up already so I can go back to focusing on what I was doing"

Please stop trying to make me like monster girls. I'm a weak man, and I don't need more weird shit awoken inside of me
