The couple who brought bacon bits cooked actual bacon and chopped it up. That doesn't surprise me about the fake shit though.

Hell House LLC is one of my favorite found footage movies. The acting is awful and it was clearly done on the cheap, but many of the technical aspects of the film are very fun and executed well.

I think it went pretty well. Cheap, easy, and tasty.

Are you watching S1 or S2?

Yesterday it was 81. Today we are under a severe freeze alert. This is normal.

I think formal session zeroes are best for players that are new to each other or the DM so everyone can get a feel for each other. Beyond that, the bulk of session zeroes fall into "this could have been an email."

Was Beau is Afraid trying to be smart or convey to the average person what it's like to try all the drugs?

Nostalgia porn.

Cleaning up the house in preparation for D&D tonight. As a food option, we're doing a baked potato bar. Which I'm enthused about, because I just have to prep the potatoes. #TTRPG

Protester Banned From U.S. Rep. Chuck Edwards’ McDonald’s Properties Candler resident Leslie Boyd got the notice after she and other activists played a protest song inside a Hendersonville McDonald's.

Oh man, lot of Late America vibes here. www.theassemblync.com/news/politic...

Request for a Certificate of Non-Existence Department of Homeland Security U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

Earlier today I was reminded of one of the most metaphysical government documents that exists.

I have no idea how many times you've posted this, but I read it every time. It's fun and I enjoy it.

Tweet from Tucker Carlson: “America’s new civic religion is Israelism, Christianity without the New Testament, and it’s the most unforgiving faith of all.”

"Christianity without the New Testament" is how many Christians imagines Judaism, as if the Talmud does not exist and Judaism is fixed in the Second Temple period, unchanging. It's how you end up with Christians wanting to have modern seders because they imagine it's what Jesus would have done.

Your AI pic sucks.

I had a very long political discussion with a MAGA guy at work yesterday, and I hate to say it, but I walked away with a small amount of hope.

You know the IndyGo bus drivers are locals by the way they aggressively ignore traffic signals. A proud Indianapolis tradition!

As long as you're taking all of your PTO, it doesn't matter what reason you use.

One of my two dogs is a Staffordshire terrier. So there's that.

I must admit the only thing I know about McGovern is that the rednecks at the Dew Drop Inn did not like people who had voted for him.

Mondale ran a moderately progressive coded campaign and got absolutely demolished by Reagan, which is why I think we haven't seen a democrat run as a progressive since.

Turned on NBC. They talked about “President tipping a DoorDash driver $100”.

This woman participated in GOP ads before playing other roles. There is no DoorDash deliveries to the Oval Office. Please exercise proper judgement when consuming news.

My group was entirely players that were either brand new or had only played 5E. I've now expanded them to 2E, BECMI, Brindlewood Bay, Rebel Scum, and a few others. It's really fun to see players begin to realize the enormous variations in games and playstyles.

The difference in how Swalwell is being covered by the media compared to Gonzalez, Trump, Collins (GA-10), and Mills (FL-7) is very noticeable. It's especially striking with regard to the language used to describe the victims and their accusations.

I feel like I have to change my starting Wordle now, and I don't know what to go with.

For sure. The needle ever slowly moves from "what I like" to "what I can tolerate."

You can't believe in GOD, without believing in Satan. Choose.

Skill issue

Could these people be any weirder?

It doesn't say anything. It's the generative AI's algorhythmic answer to "what should be on a hat?"

I was glad that DTF STL did manage to throw a couple little twists in with an entirely predictable ending. Decently fun show.

I named my dog "Nature" because he abhors the vacuum.
