The expected outcome is internet collapse. The internet is a mass communication tool that allows bothersome peasants to organize and educate themselves if they are inclined to do so. Which means it must be destroyed.

The poor, disenfranchised, and uneducated are significantly easier to manipulate. So the goal of the 1% is to break society, eliminate the ability to educate, eliminate the ability to organize, and the use their near total control over mass media to assure everyone that they are better off under the thumb of the technocratic state.

You will be really excited to tell someone important news today, then forget what you wanted to say as soon as you see them.

This is my favorite opening hook of all time.

I want to like this game so bad. On paper it is exactly the kind of game that I love, but trying to play it multi-player with my partner is just an experience in frustration. It seems so perfect for multi-player, but so much of the interface just seems setup for one player only.

This is a great one shot adventure and introduction to the system. I cannot recommend it enough.

This is going to end badly.

So many board games! My current obsession is Massive Darkness. Great co-op, but I also love that it can be played solo.

Core keeper.

It's a co-op base building game similar to minecraft only top-down pixel art graphics. Easy to sink hundreds of hours into, and if you get yourself a copy as well, then you can both play together

 

I've been slacking for months, and figured today that I was done making excuses.

Started with the compounds and did some deadlift, bench and overhead press.

Back to the grind.

Exactly this. It can absolutely be a fulfilling relationship, but it takes significantly more work than being a pair does.

It also isn't a good fit for everyone. You have to be not only extremely confident in the existing relationship, but also secure enough in yourself to understand that your partners are going to have independent relationships with each other just like you have an independent relationship with each of them. A lot of people just struggle with that.

Personally I find it to be a very rewarding experience, but I full expect that to not be the case for most.

If it is something OP decides to engage with I would definitely recommend lots of reading on poly relationships, seeing a relationship counselor who specializes in open \ poly relationships, and visiting poly forums to talk about the potential pitfalls \rewards.

Unfortunately, I had the opposite day today. A 5 minute check-in in turned into a 96-minute meeting.

This is exactly how I used to do it. Roast a whole chicken and make multiple different meals out of it.

Guess I am not a real fan then.

 

Just a short hike through the woods, and I almost stumbled on this little guy. We exchanged head nods, and I went on my way.

 

Planted a dozen each of peppers, tomatoes, and Brussel sprouts. Some Taylor horticulture green beans and an assortment of cabbage, squash and cucumber.

 

I have several old tools that I want to add some grip to, and some synthetic rope I need to dress the ends of.

Never really used this stuff before, so I'm gonna call it an experiment.

 

Broke the B string yesterday while noodling, so today I changed all the strings and cleaned up ol' blue.

 

Finally had a free day not occupied by other chores, so I built another wall in the basement. That brings me to about 50% of the way through a finished basement.

 

Ordered it a couple of weeks ago and just got it yesterday. Taking it down the hill later to split some rounds for the wood shed.

 

It's been a long time since I have sailed the seas, so I was hoping someone could point me to a tracker that maybe specializes in books. Preferably one that isn't terribly difficult to join / maintain a decent ratio on.

 

After 4 years, 16 days, and 14 levels, the party finally defeated my final villain. They successfully prevented the return of the exiled gods and earned the highest honor in the land.

I am an extremely tired GM. Time to take a few weeks off, then start planning the next campaign.

 

I am just about to make the jump to WT4, and starting to look at options other than my rend/ bleed barbarian. So what is everyone else playing? What do you like / dislike about your build so far?
