If I saw that in a repo I would 100% believe it. I've seen so many that are just as baffling.

This drives me crazy with software websites and GitHub repos. Sometimes they'll give you a hint that involves other undefined things like, "This lets you use Floorp with Bibix."

I had the exact same response. I still love it, but Shawn's so incredibly narcissistic that's it's tough to love him. I treat it the same way I treat Bojack Horseman: I can hate his character and still find him hilarious and compelling.

As an American, I support this. Do not come here. Not only to send a monetary message, but because I genuinely don't feel like tourists are safe. ICE and DHS have gone off the rails, and nobody should risk their lives to visit what little beauty we have left.

I make edible cookie dough all the time. You just need to bake or microwave the flour for a couple minutes until it hits 165. It doesn't have eggs, but the odds of catching something from them is super low anyway.

How else am I supposed to built up a tolerance for cyanide if I don't microdose insignificant amounts daily?

It would fail if they tried today. But after 3-7 more years of eroding voting rights, empowering intimidation and misinformation groups, and emplacing loyal people in state governments? I think they could get all 50 states. He's going to run for a third term regardless because it's obvious by now that nobody will stop him, but having the amendment in place will be a fitting capstone to his power grab.

You sound absolutely unreasonable. I completely agree and feel the same way, though. I can't stand them.

I've explained hundreds of different games over the years and top-down is always the way to go:

  • "This is the theme and how to win" ↓
  • "These are the things you need to win and these are the things that will hinder you" ↓
  • "This is how each round is structured so you can get/avoid those things".

If you do it bottom-up then people ask, "Why would I want that?" or "What's that for?" and you're constantly replying, "I'll get to that".

Practice rounds are one of my favorite ways to do it, but sadly my current group doesn't like them. Definitely the way to go if you can, though.--

I thought it was Patrick Rothfus. Now I'm not so sure.

Midwest US was going to be my first guess. Not uncommon behavior around here.

 

Wanted a loaded hot dog but found out half way through we only had mini-dogs.

Mini hotdogs and cheddar cheese broiled on a hotdog bun. Loaded up with rice, broccoli, oyster sauce, and Sriracha.

Ended up being delicious. A real hotdog would have been better; the minis kept falling out or moving with each bite. I'd put the Sriracha under the rice next time. It mostly ended up smearing on my face.

 

Posting one reaction image from my phone for each image I steal.

 

Posting a missing classic from my phone for each reaction meme I steal.

 

I saw an article about keelhauling and realized I don't know much about pirates (those on the sea, not the internet) beyond what I've seen in movies. Tell me your most interesting pirate facts. Mythical or historical.

My son is obsessed with Mario LEGO and had his own little table in the corner of the LEGO room. It was overflowing and my wife hated how messy it looked. While she was away for a few days I made this.

Two partial sheets of 3/4" birch plywood with French cleats attached, painted white, were mounted on the walls. Then the desk just slots into the second-lowest cleat, using the bottom cleat as support.

As he grows we can raise the desk a couple times, eventually bringing it up to 29" from the ground which is about regular desk height.

I also made a few shelves and a box for him to organize with out of the plywood scrap.

He likes that he can rearrange his storage as he pleases. I made a couple more medium-sized shelves that aren't pictured, and I may someday make a corner triangular shelf for Bowser to sit on.
