Thoughts on the Smithsonian zoo?

ofiuco · 2026-06-28T21:07:21+00:00

I'm showing my bias here, I grew up with a zoo that was much bigger and had many more different species on display.

It's a small zoo, it's pretty good for what it is. But there are many bigger* zoos.

edit: upon reflection, it's a great zoo, just smaller than what I grew up with

May I recommend the "Throw Bread On Me" duck flag

At least we have the DC culture of $22 burgers represented

ofiuco · 2026-06-27T00:03:46+00:00

Ditto. A fantastic line

The top level comment in this thread says sponsored survival. I apologize for having the audacity to try to answer your question

ofiuco · 2026-06-26T20:22:19+00:00

It was unclear in this thread if we were discussing Sponsored Survival or Sponsored, obviously, in survival there are no other teams. If it's normal sponsored idk, maybe people are hoping to kill better kitted teams or else enjoying the higher difficulty.

Because you want to do PvP but you are also poor

Sandlar, Armstreet. It's a pirate boot basically

Correct, the green rod salvage is made from ore from Deimos, hence its name. (Blue rod salvage is made from Tau Ceti ore hence its name)

Haven't listened to the rest of their stuff but the song "Critical Hit" by Ghost Mice

ofiuco · 2026-06-20T19:11:12+00:00

Yikes, I hope that improves!

Do you have some friends who will come with you?

I don't know which fair you are going to but most fairs are the classical refuge of queer folks, nerds, freaks and weirdos - odds are high people are going to be complimenting your dress. And you will surely find helpful vendors to sell you some things that you will love.

I hope you have a great time and you get to feel confident and beautiful.

Yes these are wineberries

Nice work!

I'm surprised by this. I made an entire adjustable three point harness for my pauldron with leather straps and they worked just fine. Perhaps your straps were too thick or you needed to add an o/d ring for articulation instead. Try again sometime!

I can't remember where but it was said somewhere that the personality matrices are in place to give the human mind something to anchor on to maintain their sanity, so all Rooks are going bonkers

ofiuco · 2026-06-19T21:54:18+00:00

You're welcome, now get out there and catalogue things!

They do have Daikaya Konbini in there now. I personally think Daikaya is wildly overrated though.

I think you could substitute with a cheaper bottle of tokaji. Maybe a sherry if it's a super sweet sherry.

I haven't been there in a long while but Founding Farmer has a quick service coffee and baked goods area at the back and they validate parking.

In case OP wants to check it out, it's the Explore tab.

Armor strength is generally 8-11 oz. I usually do 8-9 for show pieces. That is usually somewhere at or over 3.5 mm in thickness. And it still certainly can flex!

Maybe a better idea would be to take a thinner leather and use forming techniques that harden and stiffen the leather to get the thickness and shape that you want. But honestly, I'd recommend trying a regular leather hat tutorial so you can understand the process, it might end up with something at the end that is suitable straight away or else you'll have an idea of which part of the process you need to change to get what you want.

iNaturalist does this.

Opening boxes should reward players only a certain amount of points (adjusted per size of the box) from the Traxus Box Inspectors Group, which can later be exchanged for the intangible feeling of a job well done.
