Some say a mind is like a parachute, works best when open. But I also like this from Warhammer 40k that "An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded." There are a bunch of ideas that you don't have to give credence to because you already know they're trash. You can seek them out for edification, but please don't think open mindedness means you have to respect every idea with consideration, that you have to listen to people just because they're talking, etc.

Anyway, good luck with your search. I've not been exposed to right wing comedy that's funny.

Watching Baby Reindeer 5 minutes at a time. It's good, but damn is it difficult to watch.

All miniatures are now base coated and ~half are painted. At least until I get some more...

Poor guys, no wonder they're always angry.

Unexpectedly as long as you're not Judas or an omniscient being having a piece of you nailed the some wood because you forgot your house keys somehow.

And if you like that, you may also enjoy Hayao's Hugo moment. A full explanation available here.

All you really have to do is make the rule a tax on tea and they'll start throwing shit into the sea.

For uplifting, I like chill games where people are nice to each other.

Hades has you piece back together your family and has a lot of great dialog.

Carto is a cute puzzle game involving rearranging maps where you help people on your way back home.

Haven is a young couple trying to make it on an alien planet.

Children of Morta is a family fighting together against an apocalypse.

Dreamscaper is a rogue lite where you get mechanically stronger through self care as you work your way through trauma by hitting it in your dreams.

Ni no Kuni 1 and 2 are longer jrpgs in a Studio Ghibli style world.

Grandia is another jrpg that does a good job at capturing an adventurous spirit.

So hands are still hard. Or these people are from the reality where everybody has hotdog hands from Everything Everywhere All at Once.

And yet I'll still have to explain who I am on Halloween when I wear my oppai hoodie.

Granted. It's as spicy as a Coralina reaper, so you get to experience the burn twice.

 

I'm not talking about the consumption of animals here, to be clear. What I'm talking about is spending days and a bunch of money planning to kill something, doing the killing, and skinning/eviscerating what was killed, and often displaying the stuffed corpse. Hunters and fishers refuse to admit they're obsessed with taking pleasure in killing something.

Miss me with the "tradition" stuff, it's just peer pressure from the dead and a fallacious argument. Don't tell me it's to eat, like I said, I'm not talking about the consumption here, so please prove to me you are literate by not bringing up that point. And don't tell me you're respectful to the animals you kill; I don't believe the planning, stalking, and killing is a good way to show respect.

 

Looks like the hasn't made any crosswords for a while but the old ones are still available. Link goes to the themed ones and there's links to online versions in each post. Enjoy!

 

My tools serve me, not the other way around. It's not worth the time and effort to wash by hand or sharpen on a whetstone. I don't need an expensive knife to cook at home. A pull through sharpener and honing steel are adequate. Get the right material and you don't have to worry about the metal in the dishwasher.

Let me know if there's more info needed.

 

Western setting where a new gold rush for dark stone pits gunslingers, lawmen, saloon girls, etc against tentacles, the undead, mutated gangsters, snakemen, and lost technology as they travel between worlds.

It's coop and there are different missions, most of which have randomly generated maps that are created from a deck on you explore, giving it endless replayability. Characters gain experience, skill, and gear but also can become injured or mutate (nothing the church or surgeon in town can't fix for a price).

It also has tons of expansions. While the physical games add up in cost and require a lot of organizing, you can give it a try on tabletop simulator.

There's even a Japanese themed set that can combine with the Western ones.
