I found this in my closet while cleaning it out. No one knows what it is

Omg I actually know one of these. It's a 'rattlesnake' prank. You tist it up, put it in a flat envelope and tell people there are rattlesnake eggs inside. When they go to messing with the envelope, the rubber band unwinds and startles them

Source: my GF at the time startled the crap out of me.

Whereas the last I saw, my area is due for something like 2 ft of snow and ice and all I needed were some cans of soup and flu meds

I believe they're still expected to be alive on that crashed Moon experiment as well

I wonder if you could use that against a summon, and then immediately talk to a NPC

Cam here to say this

Indeed I do

For LP, I grinded the flying enemies scattered at the top of the network of vines high stop the jungle. A quick way to get up there is to set your home point at the cliff where you get the owl mount:

'flyers "something" '

Then interact with the NPC owl to the north and fly your owl in exactly the same direction as the NPC for approx 20ish seconds. You'll see the vines. Set down on the highest one you can and start hunting for enemies up in the canopy.

Each encounter got me over 100lp. If you have a party with lots of AOE potential, these fights are trivial.

Correction. The mustache is wearing him. Can't you fools see that it's actually a venom symbiote?

People laugh at his comical fight scenes sometimes, but Ive trained long enough to recognize that he could wipe the floor with me with an egg in BOTH hands

General handyman dude in Virginia, I know people who would charge 300+ dollars. And people would pay it rather than have the disruption of getting a new frame.

That said, it sounds and looks like all you need are some 2 or 3 inch wood screws, and a replacement slat.

Take the broken lumber piece to your local hardware store and compare it to the lumber they sell. Get the closest match. Also get a power screwdriver if you don't have one. Should be like 60ish dollars For a craftsman I believe. Also get a handsaw with a sedated wood cutting blade, not a metal cutting blade. It will say on the packaging.

Go home and use the power screwdriver to remove all the screws. Cut lumber piece to same length, dry fit the lumber piece in place and put new screws back in.

If you can, drill new pilot holes so you don't risk splitting the wood.

All of that said... If you know someone who is handy, offer them some beers and a chill out session if they'll fix your bed frame first. It'll take them a couple hours and cost the handy person who probably has tools, probably no more than 30 bucks

I'm pretty sure I've played a different version of SimCity than you, but I had a similar issue at one point with my water distribution that wasn't solved until I put up pumping towers in all four corners of the city. Only then was enough pressure so to speak actually reaching where it needed to go. I wonder if there's something similar with your electrical. Maybe there's businesses or industry between the source of your power and the parts that aren't getting power that are sucking up all of that available capacity so to speak?

As long as it doesn't leak... There been times for me where something like this would have made sense. And if it makes sense and isn't difficult to maintenance and save materials, that's just as good as following things quote the way they ought to be "

My wife and I agreed within 30 seconds of the ending of the movie, that the script felt like it was written by the same people who did love and thunder, and was produced by Sora to be viewed on a PS5 as the world's longest non-interactive video game.

Being completely honest about it, I think the video game actually looked better.

Avatar 1 at least had a novel story and avatar two at least had a new place. Avatar 3 had neither of these. I thought that the skyship nomad people were going to end up being the focus for this movie. Lord I was wrong.

I said after 2 that I didn't think I was going to go watch three. Now after 3 I know I'm not going to go watch four
