I need this poster or canvas printed so I can hang it on my office wall…

Apparently, the true location isn’t known anyways. And there’s a museum located nearby dedicated to it.

The Beaver, Dartmouth, and Eleanor were moored at Griffin’s Wharf in Boston. It is at this location where the December 16, 1773 destruction of the tea occurred. The original location of the Boston Tea Party no longer exists because of extensive landfills that destroyed the location. This was caused by the city of Boston’s rapid expansion in the 19th century. In 18th century Boston, Griffin’s Wharf was a bustling center for maritime commerce and shipping. The exact location of the original Griffin’s Wharf is open to debate, but the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum, located on the Congress Street Bridge, is located near the approximate area where the Boston Tea Party took place. A historical marker commemorating the Boston Tea Party stands on the corner of Congress and Purchase streets.

If you feel safe and stable now, then keep doing what you’re doing. There’s no shame in just living the life you enjoy. And I hope you didn’t need to feel like you have to defend your lifestyle and relationships to me.

I just wanted to come from angle where my perspective is both from a potentially different upbringing and life experience and what having a romantic partner means to me.

All anyone should want for another person is for them to be happy.

So I see where you’re coming from. If your group of friends can collectively address all your needs, you would really feel like you don’t need a romantic partner. And maybe you don’t, which is perfectly fine.

I don’t know where you are in your life. Personally, I’m in my 30s, and I’ve had close friends that have come and go. I grew up with making and losing friends constantly like any kid who had a military parent. All of this is to provide a bit perspective for when I say that (at least in my experience) friends don’t stay. There isn’t a reason for them to put you first in their lives. As they get more involved in new or existing relationships of their own, romantic or otherwise, there will be drifting and shifting of priorities. And unless you’re really good at making friends, it gets harder to make friends as you get older.

A romantic partner is supposed to put you first on that list of social priorities and for a very long time. And it’s that feeling of counting on someone to be there for you when you need it that provides a sense of safety and comfort when your overall social network changes.

GATTACA about to be a documentary

Using a third party to siphon votes from a popular party to get the second party in power is common. It doesn’t take much stretch of the imagination to wonder if TPP is propped by CCP funds and influence.

Wow… TPP took a look of votes away from DPP. And only one election cycle away. That’s impressive if not suspicious.

I was so excited when you said “Northern VA”. I was like “I can get these Burgers!” No, you mean geographically Northern Virginia, not NoVA, which typically means north of Woodbridge, East of Leesburg.

This place is 30 mins west of Centerville or Manassas. To some, that’s not bad. But most people in NoVA are 30-45 mins away from Centreville/Manassas. Without traffic.

I’m in the last act and nearing the big bads… But bugs are getting more frequent. One of them allowed me to traverse the entire foundry without starting a fight. One bug wouldn’t let me remove one of the party members from my group after they got knocked unconscious and I couldn’t help them up.

So it’s been a slog of frequent saves and reloads. Still enjoying the game, though. And can’t wait to start a 2nd playthrough.
