At least it's "Not American". The Quaker Oats listing is a bad joke: -- Quaker is owned by PepsiCo.

Well, yes -- in the 21st century women should be encouraged to enter traditionally male-dominated fields like excavation and mining.

The Jägermeister Adventure is a mini-campaign for Traveller/Cepheus Engine focusing on a bounty-hunting group searching for a war criminal in the generic Minerva Cluster, which for Traveller is set somewhere on the fringes of the Imperium without specifically saying so.

I'm not affiliated with the reviewer (@[email protected] on Lemmy) or the product.

This sounds like something they'd name an Italian character in an old Bugs Bunny cartoon.

These are some high quality, fan-made rules for Cepheus Engine (and so based on the Mongoose Traveller SRD) covering various Star Trek shows up until 2017 (TOS, TAS, TNG, DS9, ENT).

There's a part of Canada that's south of Crescent City, California.

"The fervor over San Francisco’s glorious new baseball park was cresting. It didn’t matter that the first game was delayed several weeks by a tough winter. When Opening Day at Ewing Field came on May 16, 1914, thousands of fans traversed up to Lone Mountain and poured into their new baseball home."

This is a map I made about a year back after encountering Hamilton Inlet and the associated Lake Melville on a map. It looked like the sort of place a medieval Norseman might call home, and when I checked it's climate was actually nicer than the one around the real Greenland settlements.

In this alternate history it was settled and managed to survive until European fishermen arrived in the area in the 1400s. With closer connections to across the Atlantic after that, it then carried on down to the modern day, a bit like Iceland but not as populous.

Its look was inspired by the National Geographic infographic maps of the 70s and 80s.

My mother's cat stares for food from one side of her chair and then, after being fed, stares from the other side of the chair because that is clearly a different kitty who has not been fed yet.

Please remember that the Void™ is for screaming into and the Abyss™ is for staring into. Staring into the Void™ is a breach of your licensing agreement.

This is film of Operation Sandy, the first sea launch of a large rocket. It took place on the deck of the USS Midway in 1947, with a captured V-2 setting off at a janky angle and then breaking up before making it to 5 kilometers high:

I've linked to the flight portion of a newsreel about the whole thing.
