Honestly, homebrewing becoming a mainstream hobby would be pretty great, I'm always interested in trying a beer someone else brewed and it would probably make sourcing ingredients a lot easier if there was enough of a demand to necessitate a local shop in my area.
Meanwhile my players have been on The Galley of Death (a one shot being used as their session 1) for going on 3 sessions because they can't agree on how to escape lol
I can relate to not wanting to throw something away if you can just fix it, but I guarantee you will save yourself a lot of time and stress if you just go down to your local thrift shop with a kitchen section and pick one of the dozens of spatulas they will have for like $0.50.
The last thing you want is the mess and possible pain of your repaired spatula breaking under the stress of lifting a hot, oily food from the pan.
There is a light af the end of the tunnel for Joe and the rest of Elan in this story. It's not a perfect happy ending, but there's plenty of positive by the end.
YSAK - Very, very, very few of the people complicit in this industry ever had any real consequences for perpetuating a system of child abuse that lead to the destruction of so many lives going back to at least the late 60's. Most of these monsters simply moved on to other things after their institutions were finally shut down.
Some were even publicly lauded by their communities and powerful leaders for their "contributions" to society.
If there's one thing I've learned having and caring for many cats over the last 30 years, they've all got their quirks. Some were over eaters that would throw up almost daily. Some would be grazers and do just fine with their bowls full all day and night. No answer is going to be just right for every cat.
If you have cats that eat at different paces, you might just have to feed them on a schedule in separate locations. That was the only way we could handle it when we had the same situation.
Also should be noted, if you took that 1 mil and just put it in a bunch of high-interest savings accounts, you'd be averaging a little over $3k/month just in the interest earned.
It does make me wonder, at what point is the guaranteed $x a month a better call than one lump 1 mil?
I switched to Sync a while back cause Liftoff just wasn't working the way I wanted it to and have been pretty happy with it. The layout is pretty customizable so it might be worth giving it another chance and seeing if you can play around with it enough to get it where you like.
The trailer at least gives the impression this will be much more light on story than previous games. That would be pretty disappointing - the gameplay in these games is typically nothing special so it's the story that kept me playing.
I am a lazy launderer and my partner has loads of clothes of various fabrics.
My trick that has never let me down:
wash everything on cold
When rotating to the dryer, indiscriminately pick out any tops that don't feel like regular "t shirt" fabric, pick out all bottoms that aren't obviously cotton, pick out all wool, pick out all dresses, button up shirts, skirts, or "full body" garments as regardless of what fabric they feel like they tend to be more sensitive to the heat.
The rest can go in the dryer, but hang dry all the stuff you picked out.
I might end up hang drying more than I need to, but it beats the hell out of checking the tag on every individual garment.
I appreciate this is progress and on a greater scale than nearly any other state can boast, but 17 years still seems like an eternity when this year has seen how many of the record highest temperatures for the last several centuries?
It just seems like even the most progressive policies we are able to enact are scheduled as though we have decades to spare to get things on track. We don't have that kind of time to spare.
