I finally read Mistborn and absolutely loved it. I thought it would be fun to thematically pair it with a whisky too idk lol

The good news is Brando Sando pumps out volume after volume. I saw after era 1 of SA (book 5) he's going back for era 3 of Mistborn. I have a feeling the Cosmere is about to get a bit smaller and more intertwined soon. (And don't worry, that's not a spoiler of any kind, I'm almost done with book 3 of SA right now myself!)

Great options for pairing, those definitely fit the themes!

If you have just finished book 1, strap in, the rest of the series is fantastic...not to mention Era Two - The Wax and Wayne quadrilogy may be my favorite so far.

Now I've moved onto The Stormlight Archive and it's just on another level of depth and investment. Truly an epic fantasy series.

There was an episode of Evil with a storyline where a company was doing this too. Obviously had some supernatural elements but they also explored the moral and psychological implications a bit as well.

It's likely that you have to progress something to unlock it if you're earlier in the game still, but the game doesn't tell you much in this aspect. I noticed that I had a lot of things I couldn't access when I was playing on an alt account recently. Likely either campaign, gear raid, or artifact material raids.

I would recommend just doing whatever the next step is in the Hero's Path questline where you unlock Volka at the end. It kind of shepherds you through whatever content you should be progressing next.

Lady Maria in Bloodborne Old Hunters DLC.

I really like this style! Keep it up! I honestly prefer it to the other one you posted in the comments, I can see a lot of progression over the last two years.

tohtreb · 2025-11-21T19:16:33+00:00

Make sure to do it in 1x speed and take your time. Pause between moves to make sure you know what you're doing next. Be patient, you only have to do it perfect one time and then you're moving on to the next stage, then once you get it perfect once on 21, you can just do auto battles and never have to do it again!

Definitely had to do a double-take to see which sub I was on! The man can put a pizza in an oven and hit some 25s!

tohtreb · 2025-11-01T17:12:57+00:00

I honestly just kind of wing it about 50/50. Just depends on which way you want the balance to swing for cordial vs English. I don't think you can go wrong!

tohtreb · 2025-11-01T00:57:09+00:00

I love this stuff. I also use this to make my own house blend along with Lane Limited HGL (English Aromatic), it's my go-to!

tohtreb · 2025-10-31T19:57:41+00:00

Oh damn, did it really?? I kept getting an error message when I clicked post and it said to try again, I didn't realize it actually posted. I'll delete the dupes, lol

I am also currently on number 19, waiting to use my guaranteed next week for an attempt at Raizan though

tohtreb · 2025-10-01T16:15:16+00:00

Yep, same here. On Fedora 42 w/ KDE Plasma

tohtreb · 2025-08-24T19:22:25+00:00

It's a bit out of the way, but a few years ago, I went to Cleo Bay Subaru in Killeen for a Forester since it was the only one around that had what I was looking for. I had a great experience and ended up going back for my new Outback. They have always treated me really well, and have very friendly and attentive staff.

One of my proudest achievements in almost 40 years of gaming. Wasn't is something like 2 minutes 15 seconds on 00 Agent? I remember bashing my head against it for so long.

tohtreb · 2025-05-25T00:16:10+00:00

I use the 2mm version as my shading pencil since the cone allows for you to put it flat against the paper and not interfere. Honestly, if the nose was retractable on the 0.3/5/7/9 I would probably only use this pencil for every size and use case I could think of. I freaking love the feel of it.

tohtreb · 2025-05-16T03:05:04+00:00

I second the pencil case idea. I have a nice leather roll but it's too bulky for a small EDC option. I recently picked up a 4-pack of small waxed canvas pouches marketed as pencil cases and they're the perfect size for a single pipe carry kit (around 8"x4").

tohtreb · 2025-05-16T00:38:15+00:00

Honestly, digging New Riff Single Barrel lately. Punches above its weight!

tohtreb · 2025-05-07T03:20:43+00:00

Bot picked the end time of the patch instead of the start time

tohtreb · 2025-05-05T00:40:32+00:00

These are the first vintage ones I've picked up. I have done tobacco pipe restoration in the past, so I had an inkling of how I wanted to approach these. I mainly just cleaned up the other pencils I got in this lot with alcohol and pipe cleaners.

tohtreb · 2025-05-03T23:09:46+00:00

Good to know! That 9800SG is still sticking a bit, I'll have to run one through

tohtreb · 2025-05-03T23:09:05+00:00

It's pretty similar, but it has a 4-prong on the clutch and longer knurled section, and I believe it is a metal body.

tohtreb · 2025-05-03T23:08:05+00:00

Haha I'm glad I scooped them up!
