Would highly recommend joining a community garden to anyone. I was a total beginner, paid 30 bucks for my yearly plot. There were always people who were willing to give advice, water the plot while I was away, or people even gifted transplants of new veggies I'd never tried. Learned so much from experienced gardeners, got free mulch and fertilizer and there was even a community barbecue. 11/10 experience.

Same. Joined at the Digg migration. Left at the 3rd party App-ocolypse. Reddit is dead. Or perhaps it's more accurate to say that it's a zombie: with more bots than actual human users, it's the Dead Internet Theory in action.
I'm more impressed that they can use a gamepad for CLI input.
Yesss scorpion pepper sauce! 🦂🔥
Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves.
Generally well liked by audiences, D&D nerds and film buffs. I watched it and enjoyed it. Some highlights:
- Good storyline with consistent characters and a well paced plot. Good acting and notable names in the cast with some newer talent too.
- Creators clearly loved their source material. Lots of world building detail if you're into that. Good mix of both practical effects and special effects. The Paladin's intro and the Jarnathan scene are good examples of practical effects side, and the dragon and spell casting are good examples of SFX.
- From the D&D side, you get the feel of "just a bunch of friends getting together for a tabletop adventure." They ham up the comedy a bit. The Paladin is like a player or DMPC that joins for one session and then peaces out. Apparently even the events of the combat sequences go in initiative order.
Fun movie, would recommend.

OK hear me out: It should be named after the first European explorer to discover it and popularize the European expansion: Christopher Columbus.
- Like its namesake, the nation too is racist, cruel and genocidal. Even the Spanish Inquisition era Catholics were like, damn Christopher!
- Like the largest exporter of cocaíne in South America, it too is full of drugs, and its elections are the plaything of big money cartels and foreign powers.
- It was mostly settled by white people from England.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you your new nation: British Columbia.
Frieren was going to give the acceptance speech, but Stark killed it in one blow.
Still don't get bars inside some big buildings though :p
