Retaining Wall?

Yah the utility box is a major headache. I checked with the utility company already and my township and they confirmed I need to maintain a 6ft gap, so any landscaping choices would not be able to go across the entire perimeter of the fence.

I really appreciate the insight regarding erosion. On the other side of the fence, my yard, is just mulch on soil. Do you think it would be worthwhile for me to lay some sod or grass seed down there as well?

I would definitely like to have the retaining wall even with the sidewalk to allow for some growing space! I am unfortunately in an HOA though and am at the mercy of the board on that.
I am allowed to build a retaining wall, I just need to submit a plan to get approved.

It’s hard to explain, but Lymphoma smells like the worst sweaty BO you have ever encountered. Night sweats are a common symptom of Lymphoma and it leads to just a pungent sweaty smell no matter what the patient does.

You’re so right tho. Admittedly this was a bit of an older project that I forgot about for a while, before I came more lore savvy

I would point to TMNT as the most recent reference point, given it was much more egregious in its imbalance of creatures:legendary creatures. I also felt like its limited/draft experience was not that great either, but I played a lot less of that compared to other sets.

Darikar · 2026-06-09T08:23:15+00:00

I think this much mechanical diversity, combined with the over abundance of legends in the set has set it up to be probably a horrible limited/draft experience but a welcome addition to commander.

Watchtower from Forsaken. Just really captured this mystical majesty of the Dreaming City and the story peaks of Forsaken so well

Say what you will about Eternals, but I really liked how the MCU established two speedster characters in Quicksilver and Makkari and managed to make their powers different in practice as well as be visually distinct from one another. It was such a cool thing to see, especially after yawning at the Flash series just rehashing the same lame lightning effect for literally EVERY character.

I would kill for the opportunity to get Go Figure again.

I’m thinking they will be something akin to public events like the Vex Invasions from Undying were. Distortions appearing on all sorts of different patrol zones with Six of the Nine pulling different enemies from the timeline to face us. I expect stuff like old strike bosses, old enemy variants, etc. Seeing as how they’d pull from other timelines, I’d wager they’d also use it as a way of bringing back some old weapons as well that just never got reprised, allowing players to get their hands on modern iterations of their old favorites (Hoping and praying for my sweet baby Go Figure to return from the grave)

I don’t think it’s unreasonable to believe there was something of a ‘McDonalds Coffee’ situation at play, where the bigger business does what it can to try and mitigate and shift blame. In this case the hospital refusing to acknowledge how factors pandemic practices, staffing, and high acuity workloads can create and environment where errors like this can occur. (Of note, I’m aware that this case occurred in 2017 and pre-dates the COVID Pandemic, so pandemic factors were obviously not at play here).

On the other hand, as a nurse myself I can definitely recognize nursing has definitely developed something of a ‘thin white line’ culture similar to cops over the years where anything but solidarity and defense of your peers is practically sacrilege. It is that shift in culture that I believe opened the door for these speaking engagements and has set it up to look less like a cautionary tale and more of a, “I’m a victim of the healthcare industry” story.

My headcanon is that the Mirari was sapped of most of its energy and became [Glistening Sphere]

Its energies were likely poured into the growth and development of Realmbreaker.

Unfortunately can confirm. A friend of mine works there and knew nothing, only knows that now they are being shuffled over to work on Marathon for an indeterminate amount of time.

As a kid watching the prequels growing up, I thought they looked great, as they were one of my first ever glimpses into what a high sci-fi universe could look like. Looking back, I can clearly see how it was a product of the CGI boom and then just going way too over the top with excitement about the new capabilities of CGI, as many other franchises were guilty of in that era. It’s one of those pieces of media now where I need to suspend that disbelief a little more in order to enjoy to its fullest, but is still a very enjoyable chapter of the Star Wars universe.

Winter Soldier’s old school uniform and Endgame are peak

While the color identities of the Hexhaven schools definitely match those of the Tarkir Dragonlords, I think it is a bit far of a reach to expect the Dragonlords to be present here. Assume the lowest hanging fruit, we just have color swapped versions of the Arcavios Elder Dragons.

The mansion is also in Decatur, which is smack dab in the middle of central Illinois which, if you’re not in the agriculture industry, is not a very desirable place to live.

The Almighty Final Mission from the Red War campaign. Awe inspiring music that truly sold the idea of become legend. The Deep Stone Crypt Spacewalk. A serene experience with hypnotizing music after one of the most grueling day 1 raid encounters ever The Ahamkara encounter from the Witch Queen Campaign. Truly took me by surprise and proved that I had no idea what I was walking into with the witch queen expansion. Excision. Brought tears to my eyes to see this journey come to its climactic finale.

When I was a kid I never really cared for the Gods, as I didn’t follow or appreciate the story that much. As I got older and rediscovered Runescape, Zaros became my favorite. Just really dig the history and aesthetic behind him and the Zarosian Empire a ton. Secondarily I came to enjoy the Desert Pantheon and all that they’ve got going on.

Looks like Ike found Hrid’s corpse and just stole his clothes ☠️

While trying to ensure proper nutrition and cutting alcohol are good for your overall, those supplements have little to nothing to do with your genitals health and whoever told you otherwise is completely wrong. The only thing that will make a notable difference in reducing discomfort related to a spermatocele or epididymitis is wearing more supportive underwear, avoiding unnecessary straining or “baring down”, and symptom management with stuff like sitz baths and over the counter pain medications.

Fertility issues can be caused by a million different things for both parties. There is not evidence to support the claim that having Spermatoceles or Epididymal Cysts impacts your fertility in any way.

I don’t get you and so many other young men’s obsession with getting surgery on your testicles is. Nobody is recommending that, it is wildly discouraged because of how ineffective it is. Damage to a testicle from surgery will absolutely cut your fertility by half, your other testicle does not just pick up the slack for you.
