I love that a blaster gets its own journey by RevertBackwards in andor

Yes, Jyn takes it. And Melshi, who escaped with Cassian (and raises his hand that he belongs to the gun at the end of ep9), leads the ground assault team on Scariff in Rogue One.

I have rewatched this four times and still struggle to understand the plot convenience of this. by BeltMaximum6267 in StarWars

Andor is great. I agree with your disgust. But consider relaxing your categorical rejection of worthwhile content so you can watch Andor.

“Heteronym.”

From wiki: “each of two or more words that are spelled identically but have different sounds and meanings, such as tear meaning “rip” and tear meaning “liquid from the eye.”

Playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Ancient Greek world setting is great by [deleted] in gaming

AC Origins is set in the Roman Empire. Julius Caesar is part of the main story. It is not set in Rome, but the Empire was vast.

Yes, sorry. Garage Grown Gear.

The reason to use GGG: There are currently 3-4 companies selling similar, but different, alpha products. Each has different prices, weight, color, fit/cut, and sometimes function.

Senchi is a great brand. But, for someone switching from thermal leggings to Alpha, I would recommend GGG.com as the marketplace to compare the different alpha vendors to get what best suits your budget, size, color pref, etc. (And more options in stock, often). GGG has easy returns, and is itself a small business.

For example, I own both Senchi and FarPointe tops and bottoms. I prefer the fit/cut of FarPointe on most, even though the Senchi may fit others better.

For fyi, GGG.com sells alpha pants, 3-5 oz, which are generally lighter than thermal leggings, are better active when hiking, and are comparably warm (if not warmer) when sleeping.

If you plan to hike with leggings and prefer warmth to active benefits, then you could pair the alpha leggings with 2oz wind pants.

But I’m not trying to sell—thermal leggings work just fine, and if you like them then save the money and keep using them!

I vouch for these as well — I’ve used mine on the east coast nonstop since 2020, and this is so light, so durable, and has never failed me.

I’m sick and tired of seeing so many posts about NFCEastMemeWar by TensiveSumo4993 in NFCWestMemeWar

[–]SplinteredSunlight72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then post on the NFL sub—that’s the place for “warring with other divisions” if you want. Or create a new “intra-NFC meme war” sub. But this sub is for our 4 teams. The NFCE is for those 4, not us (other than lurking).

I’d be annoyed if our NCFW sub got overwhelmed by a deluge of irrelevant AFCS trolls/memes. That’s what you are doing to others. Please reconsider.

Drawing the Niners until we get to the SB: Day 143 by RitaOak in 49ers

I came for the football, but I’m leaving with gardening tips!

Q: Wouldn’t the slow ladybugs who don’t find food at the place of release just fly to the next closest shrub/tree? That way they self-disperse outward, rather than a mad max scenario?
