Bringin' Back the 90's

Fuller House on Netflix.

This is some serious nostalgia. From 1987 to 1995, this show was my entire beginning. The Olson twins had the famous "You got it, dude!", which is what I still to this day say to my three year old daughter. Stephanie had the famous, "How rude!".
Always an appropriate quote for idiots being..well idiots.

The sexism of men staying home vs. women staying home to tend to children was totally diminished and brought into light. Full House has a major impact on how society saw how a household ran. This just comes to show how much, we as humans, take television to heart, especially at a young age.

*SPOILER ALERT*

DJ has 3 boys of her own, Stephanie and Gibbler (and her daughter) move into the original house. The main focus is on life scenarios in general - each episode.

I would love to go into how television and society ruin a person's character, wellbeing, and overall experience with their environment but I just want to keep it nostalgic towards Fuller House instead. It's lighter. The fact that I feel so "in tune" with the relationships established in this new series is insane. "Stephanie" literally just said, "This is our forth hug in 4 minutes.". C'mon now.  A few minutes later, Gibbler walked in and said, "Just in time!" (relating to a group hug). Like...seriously?

I fully understand this isn't the nerdiest post I've released yet but man, oh man, this show just makes me love life and how society used to be. I appreciate the way technology has brought us where we need to be as a complete unit, but the emotional aspect of emotional appreciation has seriously been lost.

To a different level, general speaking, Fuller House just helps me get back to the 90's when things used to be easier and simpler. No, the show isn't great - especially to a new user. To a lifetime fan - this show is the jam! This is a review from multiple young adults ranging from 25 to 32. I absolutely can appreciate Candace Cameron Bure for her Christian lifestyle while being a female actress. That's definitely significant even thought her characters makes less than appropriate choices.

Overall, this show is super cheesy but super in-the-know of where their fan base is in life. It's very easy, as a previous fan to be a "super fan". I strongly suggest watching this series on Netflix if you have any presuppositions on Full House in the 90's. You won't be disappointed if you're a true fan!

Virtual Reality - Name That RPG

Do you ever find yourself assuming the role of your favorite RPG character?
I do declare that I've come to the conclusion that I'm probably not alone in this - at least I hope not!

See that lovely picture? That, my friends, is a beautiful butterfly well in tact. Oh, except the whole missing it's head thing, but hey, you didn't notice anyway. Right?
Aside from the foraging for Lepidoptera, I also happened to come across a plant here in Michigan that distinctly resembles 'Tundra Cotton'. Good luck trying to figure out the correct term for the white foliage, I don't know shit about shit when it comes to flowers.

Have these two clues given you enough information to pinpoint which RPG I'm referring to? Leave your guess in a comment and let's see who nails it first!
PS - I sincerely apologize to the poor ant that was trying to get some grub action while I stole it's meal. Another oopsie to totally throwing off the natural 'Circle of Life' situation at hand during the captivity. Please do not attempt to recreate or reenact the above photo.
