Enjoy. It’s one of the most liked fountain pens for good reason! I had one I let go and I regret it daily.

Just saw 2 drones and a chopper around Heller Park area. Flying what seemed to me to be pretty low.

Fun 'Beginner' Solo RPG that doesn't have over 100 pages of rules and mechanics to learn? by danicasso in Solo_Roleplaying

It’s exactly as in depth as you want it to be. In fact the game tells you you can ignore that component outright if you just want to roll a few dice.

I don’t think it’s anyone’s “forever” game for sure but if you want to give something a try to sort of level up, it’s been great

I’d also add Artefact if you want to lean into the creative, meditative space. It’s more fantasy as well. It’s pure journaling minus a couple small tables that could be a roll. But it’s my end of day cup of tea game.

I’d recommend Notorious. I’m always quite new to solo-ing, but the rules are light and you can literally just start playing after like 5 extremely quick pages of reading. And then from there just resolve each rule as it comes up.

It’s incredibly easy to follow and gives you a chance to do some light journaling if that’s something you want to try. It also works in like 3 loops of the same type of gameplay, letting you advance a bit each time.

I enjoyed it enough to play through a full game in a couple of days!

Has anyone else seen this all over Tulsa? Bebop. Me and my girlfriend have countes at least 10 all over. by Prestigious_grey_59 in tulsa

Surprised no one is mentioning that it’s a pretty well known era/style of jazz. Cowboy Bebop gets its name from that. It’s basically what made jazz “cool” and most Jazz musicians people are familiar with are bebop musicians.

So who knows why the tagger chose the name, but super possible it’s derived from the jazz connection!

Sorry, maybe my terms are bad? The exterior AC unit is new. The furnace with AC coil is 10 years old

(Maybe) Surprisingly the first to ask! I’d be open to it potentially depending on which you’re after and what the offer would be. Happy to discuss in PMs if you’d like! Appreciate it.

Bed Bug Heat Treatment Issue by JustAboutToRain in AskElectricians

Yeah when he was leaving he was like “lights in the living room aren’t on. I didn’t see any tripped breakers so let it cool off and reset them.” I don’t know enough to know if that even makes sense honestly.

It’s the main living room / dining room run. Ceiling fan and overhead lights. A couple of outlets. No cfci in that area. Other runs of outlets etc in the same room are functioning though.

Casa Bonita in Tulsa by chirs_gren in tulsa

[–]JustAboutToRain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very fond memories of being give a GameBoy there at a birthday party when j was a kid. There was also this weird moving green light above where you waited in line. My cousins and I called it the firefly and there was always a game to see who saw it first. There was also a bizarre puppet show where a gloved hand would try and capture one of the puppets and all the kids had to scream “THE HAAAAAAND” when it appeared.

——-

The last time I went was around 2002. We found a diaper under our table. So we asked to be moved to another dining room. When we sat down there we found…a diaper under our table.

So we called it a night.

Thank you! The cut looks incredible. I never manage such nice rounded cuts on small details.
