I feel like at some point, we should get to see John Connor being the brilliant leader and tactician Skynet fears enough to send back an assassin to kill him in a weaker state.
Because in every movie I've seen him in, he's just A Guy.
I will literally not give up that thing if I'm playing her. I've agreed to switch it out for any other sword-weapons, but none have shown up so here we are.

Suddenly, a vivid childhood memory.
Lakewood, Ohio, a small suburb of Cleveland. The year is 2003. It's a hot, dry August night.
My parents, my brother, my sister and I were all staying over at my Aunt Sarah and Uncle Joe's for the weekend. They didn't have any kids at the time.
We'd eaten dinner at Tony Roma's, but it was still early in the evening, so instead of heading back to the house, we stopped at a nearby elementary school, where my siblings and I played on the playground while the grown-ups played bocce in the grass...

The next evening we went to Lake Erie.
Lake Erie is a depressing place. It's a beautiful body of water, definitely befitting of the title "Great Lake"...but it's so polluted.
There was a family there whose children were throwing coins in the water. It made me sad to see even the people who had come to appreciate the lake's beauty contributing to the pollution.
We didn't stay very long, because there isn't much to do at Lake Erie. I wouldn't really want to swim in it, and it's not like we had a boat or anything...

The trees are all very tall and slightly bent, it always seems like it's about to rain or snow and often fails to do so, and it's often very hot or very cold.
Not to mention anyone who lives here is living on the bones of the Susquehannock. Sometimes I do wonder if the state is cursed, it's certainly haunted in some way, whether literal or figurative.

This is a tangent, but you've reminded me of a weird fact about my old community college.
You see, Columbus only has one community college, and it's a fairly large one. Columbus State's campus is easily bigger than those of a lot of smaller four-year universities.
And the main pedestrian mall through the campus? It was, in fact, built on the site of a former Catholic cemetery.
I dunno, I'm not a superstitious type, but something about that always just seemed a bit too Poltergeist to me.

Depression seems to make my posting style less "hyper princess" and more "purple prose"
I feel like at some point, we should get to see John Connor being the brilliant leader and tactician Skynet fears enough to send back an assassin to kill him in a weaker state.

I think this is basically inpossible to show in a movie. So you shouldn't.

Also they call it a "mallway"
...which I'm pretty sure isn't quite the right word? Is "mallway" even a word?
For a movement perpetually angry at boredom, self-obsessed people, and lack of empathy, antinatalism is eternally brought down by being boring, self-obsessed, and unempathic.

I've heard the term "mall" used for an open pedestrian walkway before but "mallway", not so much

Credit where it's due, though: that was an impressively well-marked pedestrian detour
When the city closes a pedestrian walkway they just put up "SIDEWALK CLOSED" and say "kid, you're on your own" but when the college does it they make sure you know the alternative

This annoyed the heck out of me.
Basically, in 2013, the City of Columbus finally got around to putting ADA-complaint wheelchair ramps at various intersections downtown.
That's good.
Less good: they did it by constructing the ramps on all four corners at once, leaving no sidewalk usable to legally cross the street. I had to walk in the lane of traffic!

It's been obnoxiously humid here all summer, and the rain hasn't helped

Maybe play John Connor in a video game.
In fact, they are mostly writing it to themselves.
They are not. They are simply having monologues that are similar enough that they might as well be the same person.
