I’ve had some bird of prey around my apartment in Brooklyn that keeps eluding me. I’ll hear it from time to time, but never quite know where it is.

I caught a glimpse of it once out of the corner of my eye. I saw a blur as something swooped down to snag a pigeon off my window sill. It was courteous enough to return half of the bird to my fire escape. That was fun to dispose of.

I saw my share of hawks growing up in Florida, but it’s still cool seeing and hearing them around the city.

Curious if this will tie in with the existing TCG apps or physical products at all. I go through spells of playing and I’ve built up quite a collection of digital card. I also enjoy getting digital download codes with physical packs. I’d hate for them to shift focus to a new card app focused on micro transactions or lose the perk of download codes from packs. Though, I have a feeling that’s the route they’ll go.

Celiac isn’t the only condition that makes people sensitive to gluten containing foods. And, so what if some people haven’t put thought or effort into figuring out why gluten makes them feel bad?

People don’t need a diagnosis to know what foods impact them. A lot of the time doctors will recommend elimination diets to find out what foods to avoid. There’s no need to say it’s celiac if you know gluten containing foods make you feel worse.

For me it’s at least a wheat allergy, so I benefit from gluten free foods. I could get tested for celiac, but most tests require consuming gluten for a while in advance of testing. I’m not going to bother, since I know it’ll make me sick.

I actually appreciate the trend of people going gluten free, because even though prices have gone up, companies are taking more effort to make gluten free alternatives. The early gluten free alternatives were fairly nasty and now some options are close to the real thing.

I’m wondering why this hasn’t been addressed yet. There were posts last night asking about it that have since been removed. There should be some post explaining the incident and what actions are being taken. But, there definitely needs to be additional action taken to prevent this going forward.

Now multiply by another ten to get the tens of tens of thousands claimed. Not sure why people throw in hyperbole when making an argument.

I was thrown off since it's a weird place to be carrying one and typically used in pairs. They probably just grabbed some pool equipment and handed it to a character to add to the vacation feel of the scene.

Looks like water resistance training equipment.

The author is Mr. Lovenstein. Looks like it’s missing a couple panels and you can also check out a hidden panel on his site. https://mrlovenstein.com/comic/855

I think a lot of amphibians are seen as cute because of their smooth, rounded features. There are some gnarly looking toads out there that probably don’t get the same love.

I enjoy seeing them all, but I also grew up in Florida where they were everywhere. Plus, they're great for pest control, so I've always enjoyed having them around for that.

It’s fake, mon.
