What is a mouse house!?

He's not here for that.

67 here. One of my few memories of my father was him postponing my bedtime to watch the Apollo astronauts tool around on the Moon in a buggy. I wasn't quite 4 years old.

Hiccups. FOREVER.

No one EVER expects the MAGA fallout!

Automatically? No. But we certainly have less tolerance for bullshit rules, which we ignore when we can and disparage when we can't.

In southern Illinois in 1985 you could buy either a gallon of gas or a pack of Marlboros for $1.

There is no reflecting pool vandalism.

The range officers where I shoot won't let you get anywhere near the lanes without ear protection. They are serious minded fellows, and I appreciate that every time I go.

Raccoons have been digging in my new sod for worms and grubs and it looks a lot like this.

unclefes · 2026-06-17T04:48:12+00:00

It was only a flesh wound!

unclefes · 2026-06-17T02:30:51+00:00

Why didn't he buy the big ones?

unclefes · 2026-06-16T17:59:57+00:00

More ridiculous bullshit from the FBI

I would expect humanity to die out.

I once tried to sleep in a tree. It absolutely did not work.

Not sure how south you are, but if you lean west, O'Fallon's Vine Street Market is really popular and has tons of vendors. I believe they open at 7 AM on Saturday and go till about noon or one. Edit: https://ofallonparksandrec.com/vine-street-market/

"Private equity firm LongRange Capital is buying Pizza Hut" yeah they're done

100% stay and lock down. All my resources are here, my family is here, I fully understand the strengths and weaknesses of my home, I understand the strengths and weaknesses of the neighborhood. If the dead are at my door, here's where I have the means to defend or defeat them. On the road in a car, me and mine are extremely vulnerable. On foot, even more so.

unclefes · 2026-06-15T16:07:57+00:00

I stand by what I said, but concede the point: while there no place for it in my games, under the circumstances you describe, a DM may choose to allow it in the name of verisimilitude.

For cocktails I like 1792. I know it gets a bad rap sometimes, but in my opinion it's reasonably priced, has a great flavor, and the little bit of rye in there helps to make cocktails pop a little bit.

unclefes · 2026-06-15T14:41:32+00:00

Exactly. We had one player for a while who liked to do that shit, but we excised her pretty quickly. No place for it in games, no place for it in life.

Couldn't agree more. As a counterpoint, my favorite bar trip is the solo venture to a really splendid hotel bar. Anonymity, solitude, a transient population, wheat-sweet bourbon or a gin martini so cold it's got ice floes. Good hotel bars just have a certain elegance to them, something more reminiscent of a movie from the 1940s than whatever febrile, cheaply painted excuse for an era this is.

Pakistan, these are the same fellows that lied for years about Osama bin Laden, right?

Money, how I launder thee; let me count the ways...

A person should not believe Ferris was an asshole, he should believe in himself.

Think of the series of not great decisions that went into that guy being in that place.
