I think we all end up like the Asgards from SG-1 without the ability to transfer our consciousness to a new body.

Extinct via hubris. Obviously this assumes we do something about runaway global heating.

I haven't seen it mentioned, but I think Tremors (1990) is very much in the same genre as Army of Darkness, and I'm pretty sure the whole movie is pure practical effects.

I've only watched it sober, I think it makes decent amount of sense.

You think I don't know about beans?! I almost died in freshman year at Biffmoore because I ate a bag of uncooked beans. Dry Beans!

If he wasn't so good at promoting violence, he'd still be alive today.

My biggest complaint is the sheer lack of rewards when I finish a fight. Give me any currency.

I have spent so much of this game broke, unable to buy the things I need to advance any side plots.

I'm currently stuck on the fight for the Music in the top left of the citadel. The double boss at the end is brutal. But because no enemy in that fight drops monster parts, I have to quit to grinding it to go grind more materials to build equipment, despite having slain 20+ enemies each run.

After what felt like my 10th try trying to buy the game in 30 minutes and getting an error. Steam sent me a message locking me out of my cart for over an hour.

I ended up buying the game on GOG.

This is the second maybe third week. These are the earliest ones, most are just starting to cone.

 

I was given a bine (yes, that's not a typo) by my father in law.

Unsure of the variety, and unsure of what I want to do with them, brewing my own beer is a lot of work and cleaning I dont have time for.

May see if a local brewery wants them.

I'm not sure what you're talking about. But Honda, Toyota, Mazda, Kia, Hyundai, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Volvo, Volkswagon, and Mercedes keys are definitely made overseas.

And considering the price increases I'm seeing on Fiat (Jeep, Dodge,, Chrystler) and Ford keys, I assume they are too. GM prices have risen the least, but they too are more expensive, probably because raw materials are being tarrifed.

No, the US company recieving the import pays the tarrif to the US government.

But yes, Trump is an idiot.

I'm a locksmith, I mostly program car keys for customers. Basically every car key is produced overseas.

How far does this refund go? My distributor paid the tarrifs and then passed that cost onto me, which I passed onto my customers.

Will my customers, distributors, or myself be refunded? I assume just my distributor since they directly paid the tarrif. And I doubt prices will come down when tarrifs end, so everything is permanently more expensive for no fucking reason, and the top middle man just boosted his profit margin through the roof.

I tried planting edible landscaping this year, but it's been working pretty poorly. I think I need figure out a better way to communicate the expectations with pedestrians.

So far 2 Cantaloupes have been taken well before ripening, an unripe green pumpkin was taken, an unripe bell pepper was taken, and they aren't touching the ripe tomatos or strawberries. So I'm very confused.

Maybe I'm expecting them to have too high of a base knowledge of garden plants? I may just move the garden inside the fence and build a small pantry instead.

 

For the 250th anniversery of America (honestly, vomit) the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Natural Areas and Preserves is reconstructing the maps and transcribing surveyor notes from the 1800s to create an interactive map of Ohio's presettlememt habitats.

I'll be sure to post an update once the map is out.

 

My pawpaws saplings I planted last fall are still alive!

They have started budding leaves. I know I'm a few years away from fruit production but I am curious if anyone has found good ways to attract pollinators outside of rotting meat. Not sure the city would be very excited about that prospect.

I am considering making a native carion flower plant garden near the trees to make area more attractive to pollinators prior to the pawpaws flowering. Was wondering it anyone else had tried that idea. I've found 3 somewhat promising options in my area of Ohio.

These seem to be an especially symbiotic options https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillium_sessile https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillium_erectum

And this could be grown if you have a bog garden https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symplocarpus_foetidus

 

I've just got Shriek Week and Unsleeping City season 2 left. Its been a long and very fun haul.

I orginally started watching Fantasy High on youtube when I was bedridden from Covid in 2022. And shortly after that, I got the dropout subscription so I could consume Sophmore year. I even got my girlfriend sucked in, Im very excited for the premier of next season next week.

 

Its a bit potato, I made it on my phone. Feel free to make improvements.

 

Should I be concerned that Duo is coming for me?

 

Me and my gf were rolling basically the whole episode. I really hope additional episodes keep this same quality.

 

Season 1 was so good, and I love that they're incorporating the growing dice from Never Stop Bloeing Up, based on the BTS commentary.

 

I'm currently hunting down pawpaw trees, Blueberry bushes, black raspberry, and other native fruits for my garden.

Looking for suggestions.

I looked into black cherries, but they get too large and too easily wind damaged for the proximity I'd have to plant them to my house.

 

I've made it my mission to get banned from NextDoor while trolling the MagaHats. They won't stop sending me notifications. I've been stealing memes from the https://lemmy.world/c/shermanposting group.

So far I'm more or less been allowed to run rampant, so here are some of the hits.
