For some of us it's the only hobby/social media thing. Also thanks for the reorganization and bringing back some tranquility. Seriously. I get lost on the Discord after about 30 seconds. 8 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My first recollections of hearing about food anthropology were from Good Eats way back in the day. I mean if I had known I wouldn't have actually been able to work in a restaurant like intended I probably would have gone for this the first time round. You Tube Channel could be the entry point/introduction for people to source [through you] hard to find components for various cultural dishes. Also, cookbooks. when I was active in the SCA i was actively searching for period appropriate cookbooks all the time. GEM 3 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I do not do facebook/twitter/discord. I do sometimes watch the Twitch videos, but the comment section is chaotic. This forum is much nicer for me. 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would be lovely to not have the forum zorch my eyes Switching between the Discord with dark background and the forum with light background flashblinds me every time 7 minutes ago, Froggy the Great said: Seriously. I get lost on the Discord after about 30 seconds. It takes some getting used to, but once you've been there a week or so navigation gets very easy. 10 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NebulousMissy 31497 Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 I shouldn't twitter/facebook for Reasons. Those reasons include work and family and too much visibility. So this and Discord are the only social medias I really have. Note: Twitch is not a social media, it's a media. It's like calling an E3 chat a social media. 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yesterday my girl and me went out for dinner with friends. It was awesome! Great food and good company. I read that as Nazi Goering, which made the whole sentence really weird. 3 6 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Many thanks! 1 hour ago, buglips*the*goblin said: Switching between the Discord with dark background and the forum with light background flashblinds me every time Similar thing here, except it was popping between Elite:Dangerous out in the black and this forum... So its similar, except much darker, with the occasional bit of orange for the main screen. Or binary white-blue star. Those are "fun" to come out of hyperspace to. So brigh. So bluish. So... Thankful my Diamondback Explorer is efficient with heat! 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

For those curious, this was a reference to the previously "lost" film "The Old Dark House" (1932) with Boris Karloff. A copy was found in 1968, and it's available on blu ray. 6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Crowley 106523 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Share Posted September 28, 2020 Flocks of cockatrices are best avoided, 2nd best dealt with from a distance, 3rd best allowed into melee range. Thankfully for the party members that weren't already statues, the burn nicely under the heat of a fireball spell. Productive day, aside form D&D, and tomorrow should be as well. Going to attempt to visit Trader Joe's... We're down to the last bit of Pumpkin Spice waffle mix, and want to restock for the year. I'm hoping Monday morning won't be too busy. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Here's the latest turn. Really need to play that one of these days. I've had all the rules for well over a year. Despite quarantine we stalled badly on mini games this year. Haven't played in ages although #1 son is wanting to again. Have played a lot of different board games at least so not a total loss on the gaming front. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The obvious comparison is to Rangers of Shadow Deep, which i find to be much more Legolas. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I actually prefer low fantasy in my games. Need to read it over again. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
