I played the demo of smt5 (which is how I know you’re referring to shin megami tensai (sp?) in case anyone else wants to experience it) and it was a really fun game, definitely faster to pick up the gameplay, and it reminded me, in many good ways, of dragon warrior monsters and Digimon, but at the end of the demo I was hesitant to pull the trigger because there are so many other games that deserve some play time.

I’ll definitely go back to it when it’s on sale, and I’m going to give p5 a, maybe not fair, shake.

If he has they’re going to trot out Arnold in Orange makeup and heritage talking points, then accuse anyone who mentions it of having “TDS because he’s always been that healthy”

Path of exile 2 is free this weekend, and has a new season starting in a few hours, I’m trying to get my friends together to jump in.

It’s not very in the spirit of this sub though, but it did take a lot of patience to get here.

I’m still kicking around the idea of getting no man’s sky, but it hasn’t dropped enough yet.

Persona 5 was in the humble bundle, I’ve yet to get into a persona game (tried 3 and 4) to the point of “gameplay” there’s so much story than just doesn’t connect with me before the gameplay starts. Makes me miss Pokemon Red/blue.

And mammals are sea fish too!

Who says fish are “real”? In the Oxford dictionary of underwater life there’s no such thing as a fish!

Huh??

There are more identified species of cichlids in lake Victoria than there are of all terrestrial vertebrates.

There are different species of trout and Salmon that are outwardly identical (need to look for throat teeth).

An icthyologist did not have say in writing this meme.

Ooooo that’s one I need to try on the deck, hope the best for the developers, was one hell of a game

Haha, will Ferrell as well!

Except Lego movie. (Haven’t seen stranger than fiction but I’m led to believe that would be the second exception to my “I can’t stand will Ferrell” rule, and a rule is only allowed 1 exception)

Not enough soap in your pool.

Cnidaria (jelly fish and anemone’s) stings on your skin are usually nothing, if you ever want to swim with jellyfish a pair of nylons over your exposed body is generally enough to keep you from being stung, but whatever you do don’t put your tongue (or other sensitive parts) to one, because the toxin can totally mess you up (generally just major swelling like the worst bee sting you’ve ever seen, but swelling could always lead to other problems). Some of the most potent venoms on the planet are secreted by the cnidaria, but there will definitely be (actual) signs warning you away from areas they exist in.

I’d say the butterfly is the most energy intensive way to swim, and dead man’s float is the least energy intense.

Swimming is the best exercise you’ll ever do, and you should be able to do it for most of your life. You can do it to get ripped, you can do it to rehab.

The 2 most important things when swimming are: don’t get overconfident, and don’t mess around with safety. The ocean absolutely doesn’t care about you, and it’s amazing how little it’ll take to become disoriented. Never swim halfway past where you can’t see the shore, and never swim more than halfway past the longest you’ve swam before.

Saltwater is generally fine if there are no nasty organisms in your neighborhood, but fresh water swimming can kill you if the water is stagnant or polluted.

If you’re looking to swim for exercise or fitness my biggest recommendation (after goggles) is get yourself a speedo/teva suit (if you don’t want a banana hammock get the thigh length shorts), you’ll be amazed how much further you move per stroke and how much less energy it takes to go from a to b.

As I’ve said in another reply, the most efficient stroke with easy breathing is probably the backwards frog, it’s very easy to learn, just pulse like a jelly fish while keeping a bit of your face out of the water.

I’m glad you had a great experience and you’re looking to continue practicing! Knowing even the basics can be life changing.

If you ever find yourself under water and can’t tell which way is up (this can happen surprisingly easy), follow your bubbles, bubbles always go up

Life guards will always have a floatation device with them, it’s incredibly energy intense to egg beater with any amount more than your head out of the water, let alone trying to hold another person up. I’ve convinced many people that the hardest/most energy intense thing you can do in the pool is to get hands and elbows dry without touching the bottom.

But once you learn the technique, keeping your head out of the water is almost 0 effort. But nothing is less effort than having a flotation device!

Back frog is the easiest for breathing, but if you’re trying to get anywhere efficiently the crawl is the fastest and easiest to breathe with

Get yourself a pair of goggles, nobody should take the brunt of the ocean directly to their eyes. If you’re interested in the ocean get a half mask that covers your eyes and nose, and honestly you can find a cheap snorkel as well and you don’t need to worry much about breathing at all.

Please be aware of local beach conditions, if there’s a spot that says don’t swim it’s not worth the risk, even if it looks calm, hell especially if it looks calm.
