I was just listening to this today! It's really good!

They'll tell you at the beginning to go back and listen to the introductory episode, and if you're someone like me that doesn't have a strong background in Chinese history, I agree that it's really worth doing, since they give kind of a high-level overview of the whole thing, and then this series really dives in deep.

I mean, weed is good for all that, but I'm guessing if that was an option you'd have certainly tried it already.

Headaches run in my family, and some swear by lidocaine patches. Never did much for me, but shouldn't hurt to try.

It's just yummy, and the flavor is way more intense. I brew and drink some pretty fancy coffees sometimes, but even still I don't really care about the differences between anything above mid-tier, so that's where I usually live. It's just nice to have something to sip on that hurts ya back, ya know?

Though admittedly, I'll sometimes go for a brown sugar shaken espresso monstrosity, but those are on pretty rare occasions, and usually when I'm already making one for my spouse anyways.

Snap always seems to me like a red flag for poly/enm. Like, it usually seems like people insisting on that are often the ones looking for plausible deniability about their conversations and activities.

Like I guess if you're sending a lot of lewds, they are slightly less likely to be sitting in the storage of someone else's phone, but if you don't trust the person you're sending it to to keep it safe, then you better not care what happens with it after you send it anyways.

Beyond the disappearing thing, the rest if it kinda sucks to use. The only really good thing it has going for it is a super robust camera filter marketplace. They've got really good face swapping and image manipulation filters, and that shit is genuinely fun to use. I really wish they would just release the camera part on its own, with no connection to anyone else at all. But ofc that's jot their business so they won't.

Very yes! UTC-5 here. Got kids though so not a ton of availability, but this is something I'll make some room for.

Usually play edh and draft, but down for whatever.

Spelltable is is my usually haunt, and it's pretty cool for anyone that wants to do some paper. You can use OBS with something like Moxfield or similar to play webcam without having any paper. Maybe not so good for opsec I guess, but certainly fun.

Edit for *OBS.

Yeah it was fine. A little unwieldy to eat what with the big pile of stuff on top, and the base is pretty fragile and falls apart easily, but decent flavor.

Whoah, I guess I'm a little out of date. I'll check that one out then!

Right? If you ignore the dumb-looking decals, at least.

Edit: pretty dang low bar though, tbf.

Yeah they definitely get there. I miss their first album vibes fr though. "Tesselate" was a great ode to threesomes (well love triangles, at least) , and "Fitzpleasure" was just all horny, all day.

I feel like The Dream is the closest they've gotten back to that sound since then, but they went a little far with it and didn't have many catchy or groovy tracks, imo. Any recommendations for bands/albums with similar vibes to An Awesome Wave?

Oof, it's even the perfect shade of orange, the kind that evokes extreme citrus flavor. Crush orange soda levels of orange. Beautiful!

Shame that awesome cars are so often owned by awful people. Should get the exact same one and convert it to fuel cell just to spite him. ;P

If you're a homeserver nerd, you can set up a Komga service and then use an app like Tachiyomi for reading from your library. A bit involved if you've only got a few things, but the time investment really pays off if you've got a big library.
