You may be looking for what they call a "kitchen sink pack" The standard kitchen sink pack IMO is the Direwolf20 pack

1.7.10 was a long time ago so a lot of mods are missing, such as Botania

Some excellent new ones are added though, such as Ars Nouveau and most recently Create

I am a longtime fan of Debian Stable, for exactly that reason. I installed the XFCE version using the custom installer about 8 years ago and have had very few issues.

Initially my GPU wasn't well supported so I had to use the installer from Nvidia, forcing me to manually reinstall the driver after every kernel update. That issue has been fixed in recent years so now I can just use the driver from the Debian repos.

I installed the unattended-updates package about 2 years ago and it has been smooth sailing since

To my untrained eye it looks like raspberry. Raspberry plants propagate through underground runners, which just look like any random stick

I have some bad news for you - any random idiot with a driver's license and a two-ton death machine already puts your ass at risk, all the time. We call it "traffic" because we've just gotten used to it

Everyone I know who has had a skunk spray was due to one of two causes:

1). They ran it over with their car or 2). Their dog attacked it

In general skunks are very reticent to actually spray. I've never known anyone to get it from just walking by. I knew someone who blocked a skunk with their shoe from running in the house, because they mistook it for their cat.

From what I understand, they have poor eyesight and hearing, so in my experience they usually don't even notice you. They are a wild animal though so the important thing would be to not surprise them. I think if you make noise, keep your distance, and never corner one you should be fine.

I've seen some commenters say they messaged her but got no reply

That stuff is great but always be sure to clean your tools right away when you're done. When it's wet you can just clean it with plain tapwater but once it sets it is impossible to get it out of the mixing bit, for example. Also, never mix too much at a time because it sets so quickly

"Three economy" really means "rich people's money" and the filthy rich have been doing just fine

I find that people often say this when what "it is" is something too ugly to name. "It is what it is" is true, but sometimes what "it is" is that the speaker is a racist defending another racist

Thank you for making me laugh so hard at the word "piss" 😄
