The Iliad is actually a great example for this, because the recent translation of it by Emily Wilson received a lot of praise, and I know a few people who work in that field and would of be extatic to have a signed copy of it.

"I told you once that I was searching for the nature of evil. I think I've come close to defining it: a lack of empathy. It's the one characteristic that connects all the defendants. A genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow man. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy."

I think we can all agree that the best option for this story-wise is a rom-com centered around Karlach in an alternate reality where her infernal engine makes her get into all kinds of shenanigans while on a quest for true love (spoiler: there was love in Avernus all along!).

I used to be able to just say "please download the materials from [learning platform] and organize them so you can work with them before class" and that would be fine. Nowadays I have to give step-by-step instructions that involve things like "create a folder", "navigate to your download folder" and "cut (ctrl-x) the files and paste (ctrl-v) them into the new folder" unless I want half the students to get lost.

Some don't even have a concept of downloading a file. They're so used to streaming and mobile UIs that they seem to think that a downloaded file is simply gone once you close it (and needs to be re-downloaded).

Neumarkter Lammsbräu hat ein dunkles, alkoholfreies Bier, das ziemlich gut ist. Bio ist es auch noch.

Braucht man dafür nicht i.d.R. irgendwelche kriminellen Kontakte, die einem die Kniffe zeigen?

Du meinst jenseits von AfD-Kontakten?

My boomer trait is that I frequently type in my password where the username is supposed to go. What's yours?

 

Basically the title. I want to learn more about some ingredients or food items that you use frequently in your cooking and that aren't super common where you live.

Example: Roasted sesame oil. Didn't know there was such a thing until a year ago, and I never want to miss it again.
