Today's Notes 1/8/21

Good afternoon everybody,

Last night's stream of Star Trek Online saw the wrapping up of all available 'story content' within the game for Klingon Defense Force aligned characters. Federation aligned characters have some story related patrols. Still the Cold War arc was surprisingly shorter than I remembered it being, so does make me wonder why does it get the voice-overs needed to bring it back in line with the rest of the content.The real question is going to be... what the hell am I doing with STO in the upcoming weeks until new content comes out.

That said I did install the steam version of Star Wars: The Old Republic.... and instantly unlocked 77 achievements. Man I do love it when games recognize what I've done with them on different platforms. Now if only Blizzard will do the same with Overwatch, that would be really neat! I'm not even asking for cross-play! Just cross-progress!

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 session was a solid 30 minute work out that saw a lot of body punches (jabs, straights, hooks, upper cuts), which meant a lot of dropping of the hips and rotating to try and do things correctly. Let me tell ya, when you have to jab-jab-straight-left hook-right body hook-right body-hook-right body hook several times in a row it can be tiring! And then remember you have to do it from the southpaw stance as well, ugh! It's tough business... but at least the combination of punches makes sense.

At the time of this writing I just a video of a group of insurgents harassing Lindsey Graham at Regan International Airport because actually pulled his head out of his ass and did the right thing after enabling Trump for 4+ years. Hard to have sympathy for Graham, but even he saw this coming. Hell he said it 5 years ago "If we nominate Trump we will get destroyed and we will deserve it". Well the chickens have come home to roost.

Tonight we'll be back to Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, and if memory serves me right, the next in-game story content will focus on the Android / Cell Saga, which means things are getting much harder in the game. Still we'll have opportunities to level up, and currently I have Yamcha as my 'mentor' in the game at the moment and... shit I'm screwed aren't I? Oh we'll well get tonight's stream started at about 9:30 PM EST.

With that said we'll see you later tonight over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
