The “Oops, protein powder is full of lead” thing would explain so much.

Simple one is vampire duels, where only the sidearm dagger kills as a 'stake'. Something else that's interesting is a free-for-all where you revive under the command of the one that defeated you until only one necromancer team wins.

Mass market paperbacks were the very best book form humanity has ever invented and it’s a travesty and a crime against the book-reading public that they have disappeared.

I like that, feels very inexorable. Have a good amount of sideswords in the club, that could be fun.

#HEMA folks, a call for games! We have Fright Night coming up, and I want to see if anyone has interesting games that focus on several vs one, constant vigilance/awareness, or something else that seems evocative of spooky season.

And if you want to be big candy folks but find yourself struggling at $1/bar for most chocolates, with fruit flavors even more expensive on average, Rice Krispie Treats and Airheads are popular pickups and very cost effective to pad out your supply.

It's wild that we're still doing the honor system for not stealing suitcases off the baggage carousel and the fact that it seems to work suggests we could probably get away with trusting people more as a society

Would you say something like that to a black person on MLK day? I doubt it, coward.

Happy Columbo’s Day

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

I didn't even know someone was attempting a feed. I've been searching the #HEMA tag every so often and just following people and hoping they post about it somewhat often. Gotten mixed results but it's overall okay. Would definitely love a proper feed as well though

I was hoping the folks who made the HEMA forum would be successful because despite being on r/hema and r/wma event organization should NOT happen there. Instead we have like 4+ servers just for Midwest and Great Lakes area. Hell my own club made a second server explicitly for our ringen tourney.

I'm cursed with being interested in stuff no one else at the club studies, so that means Godinho's sidesword, Thibault, Leckuchner's Messer... Everyone else is a meyerist or does Bolognese so I have to drag folks kicking and screaming into new sources. But also means I gotta do all the legwork lol

Wish I could've made it to our local rapier tournament, it got to ticket cap before I even knew where to get tickets. Everything is done via discord and I don't wanna join 4 servers to see different club events 🥲 Some consolation that I don't really have a rapier, I only really know sidesword stuff.

I'm not the highest fan of VIA myself, it's not as full featured as something like Vial or actual QMK. Kinda surprised that any keeb manufacturer doesn't just support some kind of QMK compatible remapper straight up.

How do I explain to offline people that my favorite Japanese mascot said "we can only be liberated from queer oppression if we are truly seen as human" and then started wielding fireworks like a rocket launcher on the side of a mountain without sounding like I've totally lost it?

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

Been a while since I've paid attention to keyboard space but if it's QMK I'd expect at least caniusevia.com to work for mapping. If they're trying a proprietary launcher I really don't get the point.

Couches seem bad when it's a fat hardcover, the bed is right out. Moving entirely to ebooks is untenable and undesirable. Is it a skill issue?
