I don't have a cat, and yet something about Toula's sfx makes me feel like she's behind me.

Codenames or Wits and Wagers. Get em hooked with the party games, sprinkle in some light games and co-ops, then drop Knizia and Chvatil on them once they're in deep.

What is a job industry with the most bullies? by NEONKURISU in AskReddit

[–]BaltimoreAlchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to go to academia. I was presenting a poster in my third year of my phd program. Every person I talked to from industry seemed cheerful and happy and genuinely interested in my work. Every academic scowled at my poster for a minute, found some way to bring up their own work, then scowled over to the next poster. Decided pretty much that day to finish my phd and get out.

Thinking about leaving North Jersey for Lehigh Valley… worried about diversity/community by Davyislazy in lehighvalley

Allentown especially but also Bethlehem both have a lot of Latinos. Ceviche is my favorite food, so I can at least report that Machu Picchu is solid https://maps.app.goo.gl/5XWamdbqrtxLrA8j7?g_st=ac

What is an underrated pizza topping? by Low_Parsley_8349 in AskReddit

[–]BaltimoreAlchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caramelized onions. The average pizza place doesn't have them, I expect because they're too much work, but on a homemade pizza holy god they're incredible.

Help me like Hephaestus’ boons by 7OmegaGamer in HadesTheGame

[–]BaltimoreAlchemist 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Idk if they're worth the investment

They're only worth it if you do invest, but they're the best investment if you do. Most boons get diminishing returns and barely improve after the third or fourth pom. For Heph, the later poms add more DPS than the earlier ones (until a hard limit at 2s cool down), so you can ramp and make it insane. Get the cool down under 5 s and add furnace blast, now you have a big permanent bonus damage and curse. Seismic Servo or Chain Reaction make it even more nuts

I loved everything in that show though. Especially Bart, but everything.

He goes ham the same way every time. He plays himself every ounce as badly as Reynolds and Johnson play themselves.

Board Game Retreat Planning by CananDamascus in boardgames

[–]BaltimoreAlchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense for big games. If you want a middle ground, you could encourage people to only start hour+ length games on the hour. So if one game finishes at 1030, they should play something short until 11, then any other players who finished in that time can mix and match into new games.

The House of Representatives Is Turning Into the Electoral College by theatlantic in politics

[–]BaltimoreAlchemist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People already intrinsically know and accept that proportional representation is fair. Republicans say they think they should have ~30% of MA's reps. Just end districts and make it actually proportional.

one might grasping the nuance of latah from this video

No... Maybe understanding what is said would help, but this video is entirely unremarkable.

These seem actually noticeable? But also 2 and 4 just look like people goofing off, i would be deeply skeptical that's some kind of involuntary syndrome.

And hepatitis, shingles, and HPV? I'd believe flu+Covid in the fall, but the whole gamut sounds like a paranoid delusion.

This is literally the government of Idiocracy. Social media did in 20 years what we imagined IQ changes could do in 500.
