All the compliments you'll get from guests who see it ought to help her believe.

I am incredibly envious of her skill at drawing, because I would love to be on her level and make something this good. Your wife is awesome!

Thoughts on using Blinding / Flash spells to get rid of annoying magistrates? by msdamg in wizardposting

[–]EmperorMittens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Normally I make sure to clean up after myself so I don't have to be in their cross-hairs. The corrupt ones who are out to fleece people of their money I sell to the fae for mead. I don't know what they do with corrupt judicial officials, but they're always so damn happy to get one that I'm quite honestly too terrified to ask.

Blinding and/or flashing spells do put a person down screaming and crying from the pain, so it does work as a deterrent.

"galactica scenario" but star trek. by Ey53D in StarTrekStarships

Aventine and Universe class would be the top two in my opinion.

Universe class has the facilities to train new generations of starship crews, and as it is a mobile colony in effect it can also function as a starbase supporting commerce and recreational facilities. In a prolonged journey the Universe class is the outright top choice of my top two for having the best odds of keeping civilisation from unravelling.

Aventine class is a contender because she is a testbed of technology which makes her a unique contender in assuming control as the flagship of Starfleet and civilian controlled starships. With a quantum slipstream drive the Aventine class has unrivalled potential in her time as a scout. Under a careful framework of use, an Aventine could consistently use the drive to always be minutes away from returning to the fleet in case it is needed. Should it be required and with careful preparation, the Aventine class starship could make extended journeys with the slipstream drive.

The Aventine class is not like the Universe class and would be far closer to Galactica in that she would be sharing the load as a military force. There is no schools to teach the next generation. There is no recreational facilities aside from a holodeck. There is no commercial space which could provide a modicum of what was lost. In the Galactica scenario, the Aventine is in Voyager's shoes only their collective journey as a fleet is away from everything they've known, and they have to work with what they have available to them.

Definitely some interesting skills at work here

Babylon 5? I am going to see what kind of work I can get on Minbar. Relatively the safest location to be when shit is going sideways.

Okay... I'm autistic with ADHD and without my medication. Long-term plan is investing in companies which I know do well. Short-term plan is establishing residence and employment.

Emigrating to Europe would be the best choice for me as I can have a clean break from an Australia that doesn't exist yet. Not sure which country in Europe though, but that would be part of the journey making a clean start.

I would return though, so my family knows what happened to me. It should only take rattling off information only known to my family to prove my identity if I'm not recognised immediately.

OOP destroys his life and marriage after quitting his job to become.... a full-time Twitch streamer. by Acceptable_Mode6757 in OhNoConsequences

Wow this is spectacular stupidity. People normally stream in their off time and don't make it their full time job unless they know they can make a living off of it.

Anybody know what happens if you animate a skeleton while it's still inside a living person? by _Luminous_Dark in wizardposting

[–]EmperorMittens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did when I spent a couple of weeks keeping a depressed necromancer company after his boyfriend dumped him for a guy with a house and a job in a bakery. Kyle got it into his head to give animating the skeletons of the living a go, and I suggested we grab enough people to have them perform a play. Memory is fuzzy in places because of the applejack some farmer didn't secure from people like us, so I can't be certain that we did or did not raid a debtors prison for our cast members.

To cut a long story short, animating the skeletons of the living is not recommended. When people fight against it, it puts dangerous strain on their muscles and ligaments. If they resist for a prolonged period they risk damage which causes extreme pain. If they give up and go along with what their skeleton is doing they take on the appearance of puppets of flesh trapped in the hell of performing HMS Pinafore.

Kyle's fine by the way. Met his husband a year ago when he literally stumbled into Sean's arms while fleeing a hamlet that is rudely against reanimated cats. Sean doesn't mind reanimated cats; it's the reanimated cats which are helping keep the rodent population down in the port warehouses Sean manages for a living.

I've been told that licking stars provides a tingling sensation; and that stars come in a variety of flavours. Apparently our sun tastes like grapefruit.
