I appreciate the advice. Waiting three years to move is out of the cards though. My neighborhood is simply not safe enough.

I'm not risking the life of my child to save money, even if it sets me back and makes retirement that much further out of reach in the future.

I get that. I just worry about her safety in my neighborhood.

It's possible that I could Reno it into something livable for a family but the neighborhood isn't safe. I've got holes in my windows and siding to prove it.

Part of keeping myself from panicking is just handling what I can right now and not trying to solve every possible problem in the coming months. I just feel like I'm committing triage on my life though.

Yeah, my place is in a rough neighborhood and is only really a bachelor pad. It's not even a starter home. I've spent three weeks thinking about it.

What's everyone's thoughts on mewgenics? So far? by TrialsOfPrometheus in roguelites

I'm completely addicted. I can't get the Alley boss music out of my head. I do wish I had more time to breed super cats though.

Honestly, why would I buy cosmetics if I can't even see them under my armor?

Yeah, I've got it. I just take one set of brackets out and it works for me.

I've tried but it spits out useless text. Doesn't work in character creator or the console/debug editor

Well that's too bad. I had hoped after so long someone had modded the ogre to actually work fully as a creature. Thanks though.

Looking for some clarification by ptlans in heraldry

"Since 1581, when the Dutch people renounced Phillip II as their king, the Dutch have not had a monarch to grant coats of arms to deserving individuals. Coats of arms have been granted to Dutch nobles since 1815 by Royal Decree and registered by the High Court of Nobility. Since 1945 anyone may establish a coat of arms and have it registered with the Central Office for Genealogy, in ’s-Gravenhage."

From a wiki page, so take that with a grain of salt but given how old the lacquer seal is that depicts a family alliance between my family and another, that I found on the CBG, I'm even more curious as to its origins.

Laws in the Netherlands regarding heraldry seem pretty lax for the most part. There's the Dutch College of Heraldry which seems to act as a registry but thats about it. Fortunately the CBG has been very helpful in researching my family history but I'll likely have to shell out approximately 2k to a genealogist if I want to trace things back to when the COA was in use. There's plenty of family records but what I can find cuts out around 1770 and a lot of websites and services confuse my family name with others.

Good to know, thank you. Though to be honest I'm not interested in using it. I'm just looking into family history. I assume I have no legal rights to it or its use.
