New campaign in my D&D world.

700 years ago the moon fell and devastated the land.

This island in particular almost split in two entirely, and a minor god died in the process of saving it.

Now the characters are sent on a mission to prevent a war by destroying one side of the land. In the process they may uncover how they are being used, by who, what really happened back then, who the god was, and the real danger to the lands.

Or they can just do what they were told and blow stuff up... except one character is a secret agent hoping to destroy the other side if it comes to that.

That means they aren't very valuable even in recycling. Starbucks would not ignore a potentially reliable revenue stream.

Ooh, fancypants here already had bread.

I used it the other day for the first time in six months and it took me about five minutes to remember how to crop an image.

And it was a webp source image so I couldn't just use kolourpaint.

I'm tired of all the non-fascists bitching about the non-purity of other non-fascists.

We are supposed to be allies. If we can't work together, we deserve to lose.

Since headlines can't identify individuals anymore for some reason...

"Marshan Camese, who goes by Nola tha Progressive on TikTok..."

Middle aged cis guy here, this is 100% correct in my view. My wife has teased me for 'not noticing' before.

I will add my personal note though because if I do notice that you're likely trans, genderfluid, or whatever, I am glad to see you all being you and not judging whether you pass or not.

I blame Martin first and fucking foremost for never finishing the series.

Once the producers ran out of his actual content, they bailed rather than try to fill in his blanks. They deserve a lot of blame, but none so much as Martin, who spent decades partying off his fame and doing anything other than finishing the work that made him famous.

Fuck him.

ALL OF THAT, JUST FOR A SAFE CAREER IN ACTING?!

I figure George Lucas had a say in that.

They had this back in the 70s, Battle of the Network Stars.

I was very young and do not remember it as being good. They even did a parody version with animated characters.

I'd also like a pony, while I'm dreaming.

Calvin & Hobbes reference appreciated.

 
 

Basic recipe at: https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/no-knead-bread/

I now add a tablespoon of diastatic malt powder and knead it a fair bit for the 2-3 hour version.

Baked at 450F for 30 minutes top on, 5 off.

The browning on the bottom (in the comments) is not burning but delicious caramelization. The diastatic malt powder causes the crust to brown with sugars.

Will add a picture of crumb once it is fully cooled.

 

Best pizza I've made yet. Diastatic malt powder is a real game changer.

 

I was honestly curious if there was a link between the two terms, not a scientific one.

That said the number of participants in the study makes it a little questionable.

 

I'm a 50 year old dude, never cared about sports. But my wife got into PWHL last year and I started watching with her.

It doesn't have the toxicity that I've seen in so many male dominated sports. We're Minnesotans, so of course we support Frost.

Late last season we were watching a game and while the game was tied, our (Minnesota, not yet called Frost) team wasn't making as many shots on goals as they usually did, and I said that.

"What's going on? Why is Minnesota lagging in shots on goal... WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE TO ME, I'M MAKING OBSERVATIONS ABOUT SPORTS STATISTICS!!"

Left to right and actually sorted oldest to youngest we have:

Bernie Sanders is eight years old.

Miles Morales is just over four.

Abed Nadir & Troy Barnes are two and a quarter.

Maryjane is just over a year and is a foster fail. I'm the one that insisted on the failure. My dad adopted Mongo from the same litter.

Maryjane was supposed to be a Peter Parker but my wonderful professional vet tech wife was wrong this time.

Somehow everyone gets along in our house. 5 cats, 2 labradors, 1 tortoise, almost zero fights.

 

Hey all, I'm a cis ally in the upper Midwest of the USA. I offered a room to Keris a while back and she accepted.

She got here Wednesday night and things are going very well. She likes me, my wife, and our cats and one dog, and is learning to tolerate the other.

She has an attic bedroom that is her space alone.

She has time to unwind and figure out what she wants to do without fear of being dumped on the streets.

I just wanted to let you all know that we have taken her in and that she is safe and loved.

 

I've been a fan of They Might Be Giants for most of my life and have always been surprised that people universally disagree with me on this.

Linnell's songs tend to be quirkier but also shallower. (State Songs is a good example here - there isnt a song for every state and theyre often abstract to the point of meaninglessness. I expected such a project to have more inspiration behind it.

I've always found Flansburgh's more melodic and thoughtful, slightly better composed, and with a superior singing voice.

Of course they're a great duo and they play off each other's strengths. I don't dislike Linnell at all, just the songs that he sings tend to not be my favorites.

 

Said by one of my two DM friends to me while we were in a pizza joint together.

"Dude! Context! We are in public."

I have a bountiful life of riches. I run two games and play in three. Just a problem finding time for them all.
