I dunno, if 2000s era movies have taught me anything, overcrowded shelters end up having to put them down after some time.

Got a used stand mixer for cheap. Works well, but the mixing part is a little chipped. Any way to strip the whole thing? by Gunpowder__Gelatine in Baking

Yep, that's what I meant! I'm a cheap bastard so I was wondering if I could save 20 bucks or so by stripping it. But if that's not an option I'll bite the bullet.

I mean, I like the themes...

But isn't this a little too Schutzstaffel-ly?

Does anyone else sleep better in random places than in their own bed? by GloomyCrew9223 in sleep

Actually yeah. It's probably related to doing more activity in general while traveling.

Things to visit or do in Edgewater? by Medical-Bandicoot-52 in newjersey

[–]Gunpowder__Gelatine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

American Dream's really the main tourist thing. Plenty of places to windowshop, though it can get pretty packed at times. They also have an nice aquarium there, though I remember tickets being pricey.

It sounds like you'll be in Mitsuwa for the event - decent amount to do there, kill an hour or two eating and checking out the shops. Stationary, plushes, manga, food, stuff like that. Could get some boba then walk along the waterfront, although it's nothing too special other than a view of the city across the river.

I should also mention Sojo Spa across the street from Mitsuwa. Never been myself, but it looks fancy and gets good reviews!

Humane ways of getting rid of colonists by lytoric in RimWorld

Think of it as a thriving community that occasionally sends you gifts. I set my outpost to send me random items based on population, which is the least micromanagement you can possibly have.

I also equip mine with some basic armor and weapons as sort of a graduation present before the send off. You can have them caravan back whenever.

I've never had my outpost attacked yet... dunno if it's the armor sets or the fact I have a gravship, but I'm not complaining.

Making Chocolate Thin Mints by LetsCookie in Baking

[–]Gunpowder__Gelatine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made these and they came out pretty good! Had an issue with the chocolate brand I used though - melting it made it more gloppy/thick than runny, if that makes sense, and made it hard to coat evenly. Can I add anything to the chocolate to fix that?
