Let me gradually increase the resistance on it each day until I can go Super Saiyan

Some retro suggestions:

  • Super Mario Galaxy 1/2 - it sounds like your cousin is probably too old for this but this has one of the best "younger sibling" modes. They help collect and shoot bits. Which ultimately doesn't matter much
  • The Legend of Zelda 4 Swords Adventure - It's basically multi-player Link to the Past! Bonus points if you dig up a GameCube, link cables, and GBAs
  • Kirby Super Star - a mix of competitive and coop games
  • Super Mario World (any) - you take turns but if you don't go 6 levels without dying to his one it can be fun
  • Halo 1-3 + ODST - Great classic shooters, the campaigns are customizable for difficulty, and a little kid probably loves alien shooters
  • Borderlands 1/2 - Looter shooters with a sense of irreverance
  • Dead Rising 2/Off the Record and 3 - Zombie hoard murdering with combo weapons
  • The Simpsons '91, Battletoads, TMNT, Streets of Rage, etc - Beat Em Ups are great for multi-player

One thing to consider is that delivery and takeout are significantly more popular than they were 4 years ago. Some of these chains either anticipate or encourage you to heat your cookies just before you eat them and halfway cooking them gives the best results. A place just down the road from me encourages 1 minute on high in the air fryer or 3 in a toaster oven before eating

I usually feel like I have an intuitive answer to "what ifs?" This one really surprised me to find that the answer is basically "nothing"

My City's local subreddit was run really well, had a good mix of shitposting and helpful information. They'd have info about local emergencies quickly, lots of cool groups I would have never known about, and useful community resources

I hear what you're saying but we actively cannot trust Republicans in this state. They didn't have the votes to override a veto for the budget in 2019 so it had been going back and forth for a bit. Then on 9/11 while a bunch of the Democrats were out at various 9/11 memorials the Republicans called a surprise session, had all their people there and ready, and jammed the vote through with a "supermajority". So you have to be prepared for them because they're scumbags

I think most of your points are valid except the supermajority one. This state got the Supreme Court to say that our congressional districts were too gerrymandered (which is shocking in itself), and they just kept submitting even worse ones and then the Court decided to just stick to the old maps because they kicked the can too far down the road. Then one of the few democrats that got elected here turned out to be a snake and almost immediately flipped parties because the left was "too woke". This state honestly should be blue based off the Triangle and Charlotte but Republicans have fucked it in such a way that they basically can't lose power in any district so we're "purple"

It was so good I immediately went to his page and started watching his most viewed videos. This guy rocks

Well when I purchased my car he hadn't done that, so it didn't factor into my decision. To your second point. That's literally what they just did, I mentioned that in my comment. A bunch of auto manufacturers are switching their primary port, that's another way of fucking your charging network. However, to my benefit, they'll probably be picking up some of Tesla's slack on NACS charging stations. Finally, worst case scenario it's not like Tesla disappears off the face of the earth. If Elon fucks it all to hell they'll break the company into pieces, sell the various pieces to other auto manufacturers and life will move on
