    I have decided I need a new bag to replace my aging backpack. I have just gone down an “EDC” rabbithole. Anyone have a great satchel/messenger bag they recommend?


    @bonaventuresoft I’m watching the video review of the Cadet right now!


    @MsAmandaDean I’m not a huge fan of the aesthetic, and the stupid names of their styles annoy me.


    @EricPorter @bonaventuresoft Right now I’m leaning towards @toffeecases Commuter Satchel: https://t.co/ppHaJBW5qT. I like that it’s not huge. Some Messengers are very big.


    @alexlouden Yep. The Commuter is sitting in my shopping basket right now… And they’re local! I like that.


    @joneaves I’m not really a fan of most of the styles.


    @frconil Ooh, those look good. Thanks… checking them out now.

    Bag update! I ended up getting a Judge bag from @stmgoods. It’s probably a little big for an EDC, but I reckon it’ll be perfect for travelling. https://t.co/CxwhrWObbc https://t.co/c58QurWBSy


    @frconil I’m not sure. I’ll find out next time I fly. πŸ™‚


    @developerjack Sounds like the STM I just bought!

    My plan to escape addiction through getting other people hooked on Twenty has backfired. Because now I’m worried they will get to 20 before I do. (side-eyes at @gilmae)


    @gilmae I pointed mine at my office on Monday. Spent the whole day shifting furniture, throwing things out, and organising. Felt very productive despite not tackling any of the things I really need/dread to do.


    @pyko @the_nathanjones You missed it! It’s here: https://t.co/3mcpFkPYiB πŸ™‚


    @mmastertheone I saw that mentioned in some reviews. No. (Not yet. Trying to be strong.)


    @WoodyZuill @gilmae I haven’t played in 3 hours. I think I’m starting to twitch.


    @The_McJones I binged it a few months back. I love it. I’m here for this discussion.

    @randomknits Cool. Teach Em and Bonnie to play so I can ruin the entire family.


    @The_McJones But wait. There’s a difference between doing good stuff to get into Heaven and doing it for earthly kudos. Tahani was the latter. Do we have any evidence that the former is frowned upon? It’s the basis of most religions!


    @The_McJones Right, but there’s still a balance. She still had more shitty stuff on her scale to outweigh that (like the fact that she’s still a porn watching coke fiend). πŸ˜‚


    @The_McJones I also keep thinking back to the Points system, but we don’t actually know if that’s really the metric used for determination, right? Michael could’ve just been lying about that.


    @TheRealBnut @Astarael Sorry I broke your girlfriend. (Not sorry.)


    @The_McJones This is fun and all, but really all I care about is getting Jason and Janet back together because the love of an artificial intelligence and a simple-minded Floridian DJ is what 2018 needs.


    Allotted myself 20 minutes to play after lunch, and fittingly… 20!!!!! πŸŽ‡πŸ’ƒπŸ˜† @randomknits @gilmae https://t.co/csxfwbDGMa
