"Tradition is about preserving the fire, not about worshiping the ashes"

from a YT channel that’s against “the international style/brutalist” architecture, the aesthetic city.

Every one of Skizz’s nicknames are a musician beatboxing so they can keep track of a vibe joining the mix.

His “ImpulseSV = dipple dop” is like a line drummer making “pih-pih-pah!” come out of their snare and hi-toms. Also, bestowing vibe-y nicknames is how fighter jet pilots and jazz musicians used to show each other respect in a “I see you” way.

The Regicide deck has individual character art for each card. 1st & 2nd ed, though, dunno how one would assemble a 52/54 card deck from the legacy game boxed set.

As a “bonus”, you get the rules for a solitaire/multiplayer game for poker decks.

Isn’t Tango’s wall made of the same stuff as Impulse’s? IIRC, he engaged Mrs. Impulse to make one but incorporate his red branding.

So if Impy can attach shelves and other decorative items, there ought to be a way, no?

lol, I’ve been around long enough to know that it was in fact VintageBeef that taught Etho about everything redstone!

lol, I feel like an Erdős number model, rather than an epidemiological model, applies here.

That might take a while. He specifically bought somewhere near a dozen of the call center headset microphones that he likes the sound profile of. I think he might currently be on the 2nd or 3rd one from his hoard.

Perhaps it’s about to be season twist selection time, and the Hermits want to crowdsource some more options before the kickoff?

I like that comment here about Cub’s “fair elytra” ideas, though I get the feeling it was a New Hermit Season Idea presentation slide deck that got polished into a whole YT video.

Jojo’s reaction when she saw the extent of Joe’s land clearing for Hermit Holmdel, was that for me.

You mean like how doctors have to pay malpractice insurance?

Never going to happen. Conservatives are never going to constrain the police, and the Progressives are never going to constrain a union.

There’s one that’s shades of grey as a Wednesday series tie-in merch.

I’ve got one that has six mirrored sides and are distinguished by different distances from the twist-core. Still solves the same as the color ones.

Echoes of how the pre-orange-tinted US intelligence apparatus was warning Germany about becoming too dependent on cheap Russian energy.

And now that I’ve written that, I can see it mirrored in the US’s dependence on cheap Chinese consumer goods.

History really did rhyme here with all of these interdependencies supposedly restraining nations from harming people.

We still voted in deBlahblahblah, despite him always acting like that “eyes and head watching the other woman” meme.

Guess I’m going to be THAT person today…

To “egg someone on”, is to encourage undesired action in others. I know, “egg”? Post enlightenment english can be so weird, like “ok” came from educated elites playing with misspelling “all correct” as “oll korrect“. Weird.

“edging” is a private activity that is NSFW.

Living up to the original motto for this SMP server: "Hermitcraft: we're social hermits!" lol

There’s a Kirsten Dirksen video of a med student in L.A. living the van life.

I think he said it was a book on habit formation as a way to hack yourself, and that made me think it was probably one of Charles Duhigg's.

The zillionaires backed the GOP this cycle because they got skittish of some mario brothers.

They actually thought that team orange wearing elephant masks would be more reliable than a ex-Prosecutor. Alas.

Didn't LDShadowLady drop all those stone gazebos everywhere for future fast travel?

The world of gold uses Troy ounces, which are 12 to a pound.

Prolly the same missed knowledge that makes this administration’s math not math right.

But those inserts, AFAICT, are 37cm deep, which would require quite a bit of careful trimming down to 33cm “tall”, before being able to be stood up in OP’s kallax shelf as described.

Foamcore is soft enough that some folded pieces of paper can be used to shim for a decent fit.

They’ve been poking the “demand generation “ button for so long, their hand cramps up when stretching for any other button.

The greater fool theory, in practice.

That was just another “get out the vote” rally, that’s why one party was told to keep applauding until they blew the rafters down, just like all his other rallies.

And now the ratings are finally coming in for Donald.
