Not sure if chlorine haze or green highlighter

Also, we can and do eat some mild poisons because they’re tasty somehow.

I have a love of chocolate, but smaller animals can’t eat as much without severe metabolic issues that might kill them.

And capsaicin is straight-up an anti-mammal deterrent. Birds might be able to eat it with no reaction at all. Meanwhile humans just deal with their temperature receptors being freaking hacked for seemingly no other reason than fun.

Plus, human bites can carry a lot of bacteria and whatnot, so arguably some of that damage should be poison or necrosis damage.

Strange way to say “my parents treated me like garbage, and I failed to break the cycle.”

And in IRL taxonomy, they’re more closely related to animals than plants, but probably diverged long before sponges came about, let alone other animals.

I mean, I agree with the meme completely, but I’d also want to turn around in their arms and cuddle them right back. I’m a fan of both hugging and being hugged, and it might be a sensory thing.

And it’s gotten to a point where it’s being used as a utility computer in places, if I recall. That could’ve potentially sent sales snowballing away from typical console sale figures.

Some days, I question why humanity ever allowed public companies to exist. That very concept seems to be creating a lot of societal drawbacks these days.

Is the Irish Sun owned by the same guys as the British version of The Sun? If so, I probably would look for other sources entirely. Preferably far, far away from the “games journalism” sphere.

That eel story just sounds grisly. If I saw someone murk a wild animal that large by hand, even one intended for a meal, on the street in broad daylight, I’d probably audibly mutter “wtf”

I haven’t actually seen this being used, but since Hypnotic Pattern in DND5E can require a stick of incense as a component if you’re using spell components, I imagined someone casting that by twirling a thurible (incense burner on a chain) above their head, and somehow physically throwing the scent into the targeted area, and then a (mostly) harmless explosion of colorful, sparkly gas charms any affected targets through sheer fascination.

The way you used italics, I gotta ask, is excommunication coming from the Presbyterians unusual compared to other Christian groups?

One one hand, I don’t trust Kotaku articles as far as I can throw them. On the other hand, I’m hoping the “major games going out of stock” part isn’t gonna be a problem in terms of historical preservation of these games.

I’m just hoping that Netflix doesn’t get involved, or at least that Netflix doesn’t bork it like they did the live-action Witcher adaptation.

I could easily be wrong, but I remember some people involved in that series pretty much disregarding the source material entirely. Please correct me if that’s not what happened.

…by coming back as a yurei to haunt the people who wronged you? I’m not following.

Arguably, whether this turns out decent or atrocious may depend, in part, on whether it’s a straight adaptation of the games (removes sensory elements that games and film don’t have in common, causing serious issues); or if it’s something that would fit better in a film, albeit taking place in Hyrule.

It may also depend on whether portions of the production team actively dislike the source material (cough cough Netflix Witcher cough cough)

I feel that way about carpet in general, and even rugs. They trap dust and dirt and pollen.

My stairs are carpeted purely for the sake of traction. And also because it’s my parents’ house, so it wasn’t entirely my decision to make.

Nintendo has their own IPs to carry them, I don’t think CoD is helping them much, if at all.

Oh boy, it’s the Skyrim Kahjiit trader chest bug all over again

It honestly reminds me of some statistics implying that deaths due to violence may be overrepresented in media perception, while deaths due to cancers and heart problems are seemingly underrepresented in coverage by comparison.
