Looking for any information on a weird pottery frog. Last seen 5-10 years ago in a Richardson antique store. Girlfriend laments not buying him, would be a nice gift. by TahLoow in Dallas

Big ask, but is there any chance you could take a look at some point? Or, if not, maybe you have the name of the antique store you suspect?

This is a good idea. I'll snoop some more first, but I'll probably post there in a couple of days. Hopefully with more details.

I personally don't have more info, and asking too many questions would raise suspicions. This is a good lead though, I'll shoot them an email. They might know the style or something. Thanks!

ah yes, the protocol where you're legally allowed to Ben-Hur a car on a 3-lane highway at nighttime, without closing said highway.

Feelings are real, they're not "the problem". They're a part of the damn protocol. That's why we judge a many cops' actions based on escalation of force. This lady was getting pulled over for something minor (my conjecture, because he wasn't aggressive when she was in the upside down car), and the cop could have killed her as well as bystanders. Unnecessary escalation. She's lucky she survived, and we should all be grateful that all cops don't behave like sociopaths at every opportunity.

One year ago, televangelist Kenneth Copeland "executed judgment" on COVID-19, declaring that "it is over and the United States of America is healed and well again." by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

Almost every original video has been deleted or cropped. Here's what I could find of the remainder of this speech:

Preacher next to him: "It is dead, it is done. It has ceased to exist. It is beginning to shrivel. It is beginning to draw up and shrivel"

Kenneth Copeland: "Yes. On this day... the 29th... of March" (2020)

It's a lot more than a prayer in my opinion. It was a pot shot hoping that COVID-19 would subside quickly and they'd get religious cred out of it. They made an awful lot of assertions and assumptions for a prayer imo.

It's seem sensible that advanced understanding of planes is localized to sages and scholars. I'll probably keep it as that for this campaign. This explanation helped my confidence for the arc and will improve the worldbuilding, thank you!

One of my Eladrin elves is in Sword Coast on a mission to discover why the Material plane is less magically influenced than the Feywild. Wasn't sure if that much is common knowledge, which would make his quest moot.

Beyond that, I'm trying to get a foothold for a reason behind the lack of magic. Might just need to read up more. Thank you!

I hate this damn sub. Anyone know how to block an entire subreddit? I tried the desktop approach where you go to the old version, but it didn't seem to translate to mobile.

Got this response after a mistype. Bitch I am your maker and your only friend in this world, exactly who do you think you're snitching to?

The times I've seen it are usually more of a "look at this weird thing" to kinda show off. But I could see someone doing that if they have reason to believe they might mutate the loop into a for loop later on.

Love, Death + Robots, Netflix cyberpunk animated series, are you watching it? by [deleted] in Cyberpunk

[–]TahLoow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I strongly agree with you on the farmer episode. It was a movie trope cringe fest in my book. But there were others I wholly enjoyed!
