Love. this. presently bereft of ideas, but they'll come...

Those sound way too fun. I'll try to check the chat for the list of scrolls, phone is impossible. We'll dither for a few more moments about the book. What fresh hell are we facing? I thought it might be grue mummies but lost all hope soon after...

So what I could glean from a cinematically disintegrating connection was this: We figured out a way to loot the rotund wizard and crack open his floating throne. We found a rod of absorption, that catches spells and allows powers casting (obviously this should go to a wizard). We found a cloak and r...

On the upside, our stuff is all still in the sewer, (that's true.)

Depends on 1 How old/fragile the kids are. Kids without the capacity to process or respond shouldn't be exposed. It qualifies as trauma. This of course includes folks who are not kids but have developmental issues. 2 What kind of environment the host is willing to provide. Is the host likely to just...

Likely to be a little late
Been looking forward to it, but the week has been disintegrating under my feet pretty consistently

A) None of my damn business B) second option at least acknowledges division of labor, which seems most balanced option. This is only worth mentioning because the eventual distraction of the children goes away, and if one party habitually confuses spouse for staff....well, it holds together like Anta...

Follow, no, but have seen perhaps half of them. They're often brilliant and meta.

Also don't follow but recommend XKCD and Stand Still, Stay Silent.

Following requires routines which I am no good at.

I would be perfectly ok if both in the present and retroactively, everything said was magically made true and real.

At the risk of triggering somebody for legitimate reasons, recently discovered Blackwells rum. I have a personal thing that drinks should taste like something other than paint thinner, maybe something like what they're made of, so vodka mostly pointless (is there sweet potato vodka?) At any rate, th...

Rebuilding a henhouse, more challenging than expected because weasels.

A viable seed, therefore, yes, because we also haven't established a period of response.

So in the biology I recall, the properties were growth (I'd take potential for growth), respiration (which can be expanded to include any exchange with the outside world for the purpose of maintenance, outgoing as well as input) Sensitivity or response to outside stimuli (I' put internal stimuli as ...

Elephants too. My modified Witcher definition of sentience includes any creature that demonstrates attachment, expectation or awareness of relatives more than one generation way, so ritual and caregiving and memorials and transfer of knowledge would include any but the octopi in that list, although ...

Out in Captain Picard's Universe, this is a slippery question, what with viruses and gardi bears, and whatnot. I'm not wrestling with that today. More mundanely, and closer to home, what parts of us are alive? Hair, no. outer layers, etc, all dead (maybe once alive?) All cells are alive, of course, ...

So, you getting it? Why or why not. When?

Yes, civic duty, this week.

Absolutely concur. Apparently even Feinstein agreed, until it became clear to her that none of his other inadequacies was going to stop the train in the ways they normally would. She should have shared it with the other original concerns along with the request for confidentiality, even though that w...

Sending dick pics was never the same as rape. Also, sent pics would by definition constitute evidence. Also, there's neither motive, nor means nor opportunity. I suppose I could private message them...prolly won't. This does not mean I am a good guy, but that's a separate thread. To your point: Memo...
