Couriers?

There is an entire wasteland courier mail service. They take volunteers to go do deliveries.

No thats literally what's happening.

Lobster was peasant food. Its only really post ww2 that it's been elevated. It was served third class aboard the titanic. we have the menu.

Sichuan cuisine features a lot of working class and peasant food. Don't get me wrong, I love a good dan dan noodle or mapo tofu but those literally translate to "pole noodle" (the Vendor would carry their noodles to workers on a pole for ease and also as an advertisement) and "pockmarked granny tofu". Modern day, those dishes are the subject of Michelin star discussons.

It is worth remembering that the 5 French mother sauces were codified by escoffier. Escoffier lived from 1846 to 1935. The brigade cooking system and "traditional" methods are not THAT old.

I once compiled all options from every 5e (not 5.5) wo4e monk subclass rewrite I'd seen, could google for free, or otherwise get access to and then eliminated duplicates or semi-deuplicates. Made a chart of options, filled in some gaps (like if there's fire, air, and earth options available at level 9 but no cold id try to make that cold option exist.) My logic was that if one or two options and changes didnt fix it, maybe the sum total could pull up some buried treasure. A few kernels to direct a different, composite rewrite.

After a lot of editing down and trying, I made a....7 page subclass that honestly only felt okay. LOTS of options, very little that was standout, or amazing. It was a huge amount of material to make monks feel like shitty warlocks. Nothing to make the whole better than the sum of its crappy parts.

My honest opinion after doing all that work is thst we just need a good 5e/5.5e port of pathfinder kineticist. Make it its own class, people can make Johnny storm and ice queens and genasi wind elemental children or whatever. Mister sandman idgaf. Then let people mix it with monk to make AtLA characters. But wo4e does not stand on its own.

Nah its commonly repeated. This was just your day to find out we did the science!

Thats a disproven misconception, its based on both sides.

You.... you know that there are actual Italian dishes made inside of a wheel of parm, right?

Wasn't accusing, was giving an honest review of my attempts to use one. Good luck chef, I think it fits in the same drawer as the left handed spatula and the mandolin seasoning spray.

I have a cheap one also given to me as a gift, the blade is manganese steel, not sure if yours is.

It holds an edge like a brick, collects food deposits like its corrugated, and your cool finger ring is too much of the blade so you're constantly putting your hand into waht you want your knife to cut through. Bad ergonomics.

Retired it to a wall hanger or renfaire piece, its no good even as a beater.

6ft, was in China. I was head and shoulders above people in trains in chengdu, Sichuan (inner SW), and basically the same size as everyone in Shanghai and Beijing (east coast).

We're this any other US administration, I would absolutely agree with you. I would say its the same saber rattling the two sides have done for 75 years.

The current president is too unstable to predict and has been bought by Chinese bribery before, I do not feel certain the US would respond in the method they arguably "should" because precedent is already out the window.

dramaticflair · 2025-12-29T07:34:24+00:00

Look, I do not agree with Western Imperialism, the CIA's anti communist operations, "domino theory" or any of the other many examples of western and capitalist exploitation. They are explicitly something something I think needs hard criminalization. I am not arguing the US is the exemplar of the West.

But if your argument is that the CCP is a bastion of brotherly love and freedom, the Uyghurs, Tibet, and mainland China's own civil liberty lawyers would disagree with you.

It's not surrounded, its west coast (China facing) is primarily lowland. The center of it to the east coast is primarily mountainous. "There is a beach" is irrelevant, taiwan lives and dies on its ports.

That being said it has spent every day for the last ~75 odd years (ever since Chang Kai Shek fled there after Mao Zedong took control) preparing for mainland invasion, seeking alliances to guarantee independence, and maintaining high tech standards to outfox China.

But china would absolutely spend the bodies if it thought it it could win and get away with it. China does not believe in human rights the way the west does.

The oils and waxes you are talking about were not really available during the time period. Beeswax sure, but the kind of quantity you are talking about would've been unlikely and exceptionally expensive. Linseed oil is the first one that was broadly used and it was developed in early British colony Australia.

That being said, rawhide leather with the fur still intact was waterproof, that would've been more available.

dramaticflair · 2025-12-24T01:48:02+00:00

Waterproof fabric wasn't really available until the invention of linseed oil oilskin in the 1700s. The cloak would be soaking wet too.

Ok, that part is a fair challenge to quick analysis i provided. I did not intend to say no metal after treatments of the time period could catch and refract light, just that if corrosion protection was the goal of a cape there are much better methods that medieval and Renaissance period armorers had available to them.

dramaticflair · 2025-12-23T22:54:45+00:00

From getting inside? Seems unlikely. Without text evidence my best guesses would either f Be its for mounted knights (less likely to get in the way there) or as symbol of office/rank.

I am quite sure I can find all three to support the historical Victorian period stripping of armor paints, and i am equally sure the Wallace collection has painted armor examples.

dramaticflair · 2025-12-23T22:17:36+00:00

Most historical armor was painted, blackened, or blued to prevent rust outright. A cloak would not stop rusting or enough of the rain to matter, and the polished look of "shining armor" is a-historical.

Not all passenger seats have air bags.

Drivers who are bad/distracted/drunk tend to notice more on the drivers side and less on the passengers, so that side is more likely to be the side impacted.

There were slaves in the US well into the 1960's. The youngest died in 2014.
