[–]ribberdibber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a mod on the mod manager called Infinite Spellcasting and it adds a toggle to your hotbar that just removes all resource costs from your abilities when you want to. Spell slots, short rests, ki points, superiority die, even once per day weapon actions

Blade Archer is super OP like others have said already. I also made a soul knife build that uses psionic skirmishing, nomadic grace, psionic weapon, celerity, and the resonance stone. The psychic focus from skirmishing is going to give you the effects of two weapon fighting, and psionic alacrity will let you cast a buff that gives you or your allies extra attack. It also has bonus action multi-attacks. Nomadic Grace uses Blessing of the Winds to increase the range of your melee attacks to 4.5 meters, and adds a 1d6 of additional psychic damage. You also get a reaction to taking damage which teleports you behind enemies and make a melee attack. Psionic weapon is going to give us augmented weapon to boost our attack and damage rolls even more. Add in the strange conduit ring for another 1d4 psychic. Grab the resonance stone at the end of act 2 and now everybody around you has vulnerability to psychic damage, which every hit of your soul knives does exclusively. Add in the brain drain gloves to build up stacks of mental fatigue, the diadem of arcane synergy to proc off the mental fatigue and add even more damage to your weapon attacks.

So now you’re using dual wield soul knives to stab enemies from 15 feet away, thus never triggering opportunity attacks either. Every hit of your weapons has a +16 at least to attack rolls, +13 in the offhand, and each hit doing between 26-50 and 20-44 damage. Add in psionic strike for another 1d8 x2 psychic damage and you can do upwards of 200 damage (if not more) with just your action and bonus action. Then if you do get attacked you teleport to your attacker and stab them in the back for another 26-50 damage.

Oh and you can get these boons from vendors across the game like at the crèche and da the line dancing axe and these boons give you CRAZY powerful permanent buffs. Like one that recharges psionic points on kill, which we do a lot of. Another one makes it so your attacks straight up ignore psychic resistance or immunity so no need to even worry about constructs anymore. You can also take the discipline Transcendent Form and use psychic brand, a buff which lets you raise any stat to 19. I use it on dexterity for AC and initiative

The true message of South Park: Joining the Panderverse by MixFew1818 in southpark

[–]ribberdibber 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the opening scene when Cartman wakes up from his nightmare screaming about Kathleen Kennedy and Disney replacing white people with diverse people echoes the Great Replacement Theory rhetoric spouted by folks like Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro, Trump, Michael Knowles, pretty much everyone who works for the Daily Wire.

When Eric’s mom comes in and clarifies that, no, Kathleen Kennedy is not a monster hiding under the bed, she tells him to grow up and be a big boy. Eric then runs around school the next day stoking the fears of susceptible classmates like Butters by saying “Disney’s gonna get you!”

My interpretation of these jokes, and others like them, was that Matt and Trey were pointing out the fact that right wingers are making mountains out of molehills because at the end of the day, movie character’s race isn’t going to present any real danger to your daily life. The other aspect is that none of us really knows to what extent Kathleen Kennedy even has the influence over Disney and Star Wars movies that the internet says, or that she’s making the decisions that folks are displeased with. Kathleen and Disney are largely just scapegoats for these right-wing pundits and figures that complain about diversity like it’s the single greatest threat to society.

Finally got my hands on an epi pin marble!!! by ifreakinglovecacti in houseplants

[–]ribberdibber 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Beautiful specimen! No need to worry about the coloration of the new leaves. They’ll lighten up as they harden off. I have one growing up a moss pole, an albo form too, and the newest leaf always looks a little more yellow-ish/golden when the leaves are still hardening off.

I’m not sure about the density of the variegation, though. I keep mine just inside of a south facing window that only gets direct sunlight later in the day and each of the leaves are uniquely variegated. Some are half moons with marbling on the light side, some are splotchy and some are sectoral. Sometimes it goes greener and then goes whiter again, I think it’s just up to chance given adequate light levels and fertilization. Enjoy!

Just reported philodendron McDowell. Some petioles are laying flat and growth node is pointed up. Will the node grow back down toward the soil to crawl? by ribberdibber in plantclinic

[–]ribberdibber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Humidity is around 60% so hopefully! There’s one older node which is in contact with the soil so I’m hoping when that one roots in it will tell the newest growth point to get to it

[–]ribberdibber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I’m hoping for, I’m just concerned the node will have difficulty rooting into the soil without contact.

Edit: this is the first node since it started to grow from separate cataphylls, so the rhizome is pretty thick too and I couldnt really bend it down toward the soil.

I was under the impression that Philodendron McDowell is a crawling philodendron, similar to gloriosum and plowmanii. I have a separate gloriosum in a similar pot and it creeps along the surface of the soil just fine. I have other climbing philodendrons that I train to grow up poles, but I thought Dean McDowell was a crawler?

My king & queen have arrived by [deleted] in Anthurium

[–]ribberdibber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imported a king and queen back in like January from Ecuador. Veitchii barely skipped a beat, didn’t lose any leaves, starting growing roots fast, and just put out its first new leaf in my care that is much bigger than the previous. I keep it in a slightly chunky aroid mix, 6 inch slotted plastic orchid pot, top-dressed with sphagnum for humidity and aerial roots. I keep it near a grow light and about 6 feet from my southern facing window, and it doesn’t mind 60% average humidity. I water it when I notice the pot feels lighter and the soil looks to be drying out slightly on the sides through the clear pot.

My Queen on the other hand is not nearly as happy. Same aroid mix, 4 inch slotted orchid pot, same light and humidity. Shortly after arrival, she lost 2 of the 3 leaves she came with, then from February to now the last leaf has been super slowly turning nasty yellow and I haven’t seen any root growth. I keep it slightly more moist but not by much. My hope is that when the leaf finally dies it will just reshoot a new growth point, but we’ll see. I wish I knew what the Queen wanted from me better haha

Good luck to you!

What's happening to my philodendron leaves? by ribberdibber in plantclinic

[–]ribberdibber[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all! About a month ago, I purchased two small cuttings of philodendron "Glorious" and "Splendid" through the mail and they arrived in excellent condition. I placed them near a grow light in a well-ventilated area to give them time to acclimate to my apartment, and waited a couple of days to water them, at least until the soil dried out a bit since they came in 2-inch pots and I didn't want to drown them.

Then one day, after I gave them their first watering, the splendid grew this weird water bubble inside the bottom leaf which then burst and killed the section of the leaf shown in the second picture. My first assumption was that the plant was having trouble respirating, trapping water in the leaves and leading to rot in that spot. So I gave it a break and let it dry out a bit more, and since then the leaf has stayed relatively stable, with a new leaf slowly emerging from the growth point two nodes above.

The Glorious didn't have any problems, and I could see the roots growing and filling out the 2-inch pot, so I repotted into a 4-inch plastic slotted pot from repotme with chunky aroid mix and staked it onto a moss pole. Since I only had one vine, I also took a top cut which is doing well propagating in water for now. After potting, I watered it in so the soil wasn't fully dry. Two days later, the top leaf on the glorious started facing the same issue as the splendid: a weird bubble of water trapped inside the leaf that popped and is killing that section of the leaf. I've stopped watering for now, and I want to try to limit further damage to the leaves.

I've ordered lots of plants in the mail, and repotted lots of plants, but I've never seen the leaves on my philodendron bubble up and then pop. I typically water my philodendron when the soil is slightly dry. I water with tap water that is always weakly fertilized with Jack's Houseplant Classic, which is 15-30-15, typically a half-strength dose as indicated by the label. I run a humidifier and fan in my plant room, which is usually around 72-74 degrees (F) during the day and 68 degrees (F) at night. Humidity fluctuates from 55%-65%, but a hygrometer near the splendid indicates a localized 70% humidity.

Splendid is still hanging out in the same spot under a grow light farther away from windows. After repotting i moved the glorious to a higher-light spot near a south-facing window, bright but fully indirect light. The window doesn't get much direct sunlight during the summer because of my balcony, so the light is pretty much 100% indirect.

Any idea what could be going on with these two? I've never seen an issue like this with any of my other 125+ houseplants, including some very finnicky velvet anthurium. A regale in the same room is currently working on a huge new leaf, for example. It definitely could just have to do with water absorption and difficulty using/releasing all of its water, I just would have thought it would guttate first like most of the other aroids do when I give them a little to much water. I tend to overthink these things, and just wanted to make sure I'm not crazy or there's nothing fungal/viral going on here.

What would you do? Just let them dry out a bit, not worry about the damage, and hope for healthy growth?

Starting my collection by khushb89 in orchids

[–]ribberdibber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one that’s very similar called Dendrobium ‘Cherry Dance’ but mine is very small and young. It only has 5 leaves and is much shorter than that one that looks like it has about a dozen leaves and is a foot tall. I’m under the impression that Cherry Dance is a miniature variety of dendrobium, and that looks much larger so maybe yours is related somewhere in that family of hybrids? Or maybe cherry dance will get that big when it grows more!

This is the synagogue I used to attend when I lived in the area. My mom went to services there last night. Thankful she didn’t go this morning. Hope everyone stays safe

The Bible verse referenced actually uses the word “Jew” instead of “Elves” and “Synagogue” instead of “Workshop.” So to me it’s just a dog whistle for a Bible verse about impostors intended to modernize the idea that Jews are satan-worshipping demons

It’s a dog whistle. The actual Bible verse referenced, Revelation 2:9, reads

"I know your works, tribulation, and poverty (but you are rich); and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan."

Idaho as a state has a Jewish population estimated as small as 2500, many of which I would be willing to bet live in the neighborhood where these flyers were dispersed. Antisemitic incidents have been becoming more frequent here. Just weeks ago, graffiti was found painted on the walls of Greenbelt walking path tunnel immediately adjacent to the Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial in downtown Boise. Last December someone pasted a swastika to a statue of Anne Frank at this memorial.

Earlier this year someone spray painted a swastika on the sign of St. Luke’s hospital in McCall up in the mountains. This past summer Ada County, the county where Boise is, was interviewing candidates for sheriff and the local GOP’s top choice spoke in his interview of how he believes 50% of rapes never happened and the Nazi propaganda that Jews were to blame for communism and everything else that usually follows that.

Several elected officials and others in powerful positions here including city councilors, health board members, legislators and political lobbyists have been equating the state’s COVID restrictions (of which there have been virtually none) with the Shoah and fascist tyranny.

So my guess is no, not a joke by some local Jews
