Yeah, that's the thing... I think back to some of the communities I used to be a part of decades ago, and the size of them... I miss those communities. I'm ready to return to a smaller internet.

You know, that's a good point. Facebook may be littered with ads, but at least they are relevant to my lifestyle. My wife has purchased a fair few things she saw from Facebook ads. Reddit ads pretty much are universally uninteresting garbage.

That's the big one, to me. It's a huge source of water for damn near all of Crimea. Russia destroying the thing has dramatic implications both to their campaign in Ukraine as well as their perceived ability to withstand the Ukrainian counter offensive in Crimea. This is both terrible and very interesting...

Because he has admin rights and can literally control the narrative?

For the last month or two I've been building a set of cabinets/room dividers to hide my TV in (There's a TV lift under there!). Construction has gone well, and I got a lot of the doors built this week (hooray! I was pretty nervous about them). But now I'm starting to butt my head up against learning how to stain wood, which I have very little exposure to... so... that's been challenging. Hopefully I'll figure something out... it's turns out maple is pretty tough to stain.

I have been playing Pathfinder 2e for the last few years. We just finished a Starfinder campaign, and are starting up a Lancer game in it's place. I've wanted to try Lancer for years, so I'm pretty excited for it! :D

If it's represented with in equal proportions it's fine, but generally I agree. I haven't liked a lot of things about 5e, and don't find it interesting.

I played the crap out of borderlands... until one day I asked myself why... and... I never picked it up again. After that switch was flipped, the whole series just fell apart on me.

My first reaction is like you, put in a rain barrel. Then maybe you could put in one of those perforated hoses, and you can just stick a 1/4 turn valve in the base of the rain barrel and you could just manage the valve when you want to water it?

I'd like to see a community specifically dedicated to tabletop RPGs. Don't think I've seen one of those yet.

Woof, that's a pretty intense decision! A house nearby us wanted to put a 2nd floor on the home. When they investigated the footings, the found they were vastly insufficient (read: nonexistant) to support the weight of a 2nd story. When they opened up the walls shortly there after because of carpenter bees, they realized damn near the entire house's frame had been infested with carpenter bees and termites. The place was barely holding itself up...

So they tore the entire thing, foundation and all, down. They got the new foundation in place, and then COVID hit, and lumber prices went ABSOLUTELY INSANE. It's been 3 years since they took it down, and they still only have a foundation, and are living out of a (at this point very well insulated) garage.

I hope your project goes dramatically better than that.

oh god, that's awful!! :( No barefeet... or doggies, I guess.

Alright, that's definitely a sock. I guess I've just never heard of painting socks. Have fun with it, I guess! :)

How's conversation coming? I've heard great things about that AP, and might suggest it be the next one our group plays

Lol, yes. I was typing while dealing with a kid. :)

I've been on that discord server a few times... Didn't realize they actually got anything done. All the APs I watched were darn near dormant.

Based on the other games you mentioned I thought it might fit... And the depth of mechanics in that game is actually pretty astonishing. It's a neat little thing. Glad I could help

Please send me an update as you move along and/when you're done! I'd love to see it develop!

Thanks for the link! Didn't know that was there. Subbed!

How far along are you with AoA? I'm just about to finish book 4 with my crew. I really haven't been drinking the kool-aid with this AP. Book 5 looks decent, and 6 looks fantastic, but MAN it feels like they just forgot to tell the PCs what the actual plot is, throughout like... the entire story.

I also did abp and free archetype for frozen flame. Worked out very well! Everyone liked it. :)
