Yeah PredictIt had Biden at $0.48/share for a ‘Yes’ share on Biden winning the election at 9pm, which has since dropped to $0.33/share and Newsom has risen from $0.05/share to $0.20/share in the same amount of time lmfao

Yeah I genuinely think it is Joever for him after tonight, I’ve never watched a debate where all the immediate post-debate coverage chyrons are like “Should Incumbent drop out??” LMAO

Face it America is a socialist country and all the people and all the parties are just slightly left of center. It’s a country of moderates.

They were not prepared for Luis Arce to be actively monitoring the situation since normally he is shitposting on Hexbear. The fools were hoping TheDunkTank false flag would still have the site, and thus President Arce, embroiled in a struggle-session. Better luck next time

Right on

Also that boss looks suspiciously like Pontiff Sullyvhan

Yeah her weapon is literally just his combined into a single greatsword that can be two-handed, ash of war and all. it has become my main weapon sadly because rule of cool (and because light greatswords are fucking op!!!)

I feel like the game was absolutely balanced to an extent around spirit summons - especially the NPC companion ones you can get for certain bosses like Rogier for Margrit. If a NPC has a summon, I’m summoning them every time if I have trouble soloing the boss but I will usually rarely also do a spirit ash; but I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with doing so.

honestly would Oswald.

would not Jim Parsons.

cannot explain why but I know this to be true in my heart…

Be sure to check the venue’s site/etc for bag rules - went to a concert last month at an venue I’ve been to like a dozen times before with some friends and they weren’t letting anyone in who had a bag bigger than like 6 inches & they had to be clear. (which pissed off one of my friends who’d brought like a canvas bag specifically for carrying the blanket she was gonna put out & they refused to let her bring it inside even after showing it only held a blanket)

Be prepared to be gouged for anything food/drink wise. I spent $13.00 on a $5 can of liquid death (which my high ass was initially like ‘wtf this is a fucking seltzer i asked for water dude’ to the poor teenager working lol) and a $7.00 soft pretzel. If you’re gonna get wasted, I’d probably recommend pre-gaming outside but I’ve had luck bringing airplane bottles of liquor in my pockets (and had friends who would put them in their bra) and buying a ‘cheaper’ soda to mix/chase it with. If it’s outdoors, you can probably get away with sneaking a joint in (especially if you smoke cigarettes) as most places aren’t gonna care. If you have an electronic vape/cart for weed, same thing and even easier in most cases.

If it’s packed and you’ve brought like a blanket/chair/etc - do NOT be afraid to strike up a conversation with a couple or stranger who might be using way too much space and ask them if they mind if you park right next to them. I have a friend who is a fucking master at this and always leaves concerts with like one new ‘friend’ they’ve made in securing us a spot; never takes her more than a ‘hey do you mind if we/I put our stuff right here?’ and a ‘excited for the show?’. I personally am a bit too self-conscious to ever do it when its really packed, but if you just don’t want to be standing behind a pillar or something and see a spot you could theoretically stand/sit in if someone is gracious enough to pull their chairs together or step slightly closer to their group - it is always worth doing. A large chunk of people who get like lawn chairs and whatnot at concerts are perfectly fine with giving up a bit of space to let someone squeeze in, as long as you’re not rolling like 10 people deep with three blankets or something.

Merch for bigger shows usually sells out by the middle of the concert, so if you’re dead set on getting a poster or something, be sure to stop when you’re entering the venue or, if they play a song you dislike/don’t care about early on, step away at some point during the concert early. As always, the really dedicated people will be at the merch booth as soon as the venue opens and will wait in line while the show is happening - so bear in mind that you may never get that really cool piece of merch if you wait too long, but eh.

Bathrooms will always have a line, but less so when the show is on - so like merch, I usually try to time this for songs that I dislike or have heard live way too many times before. Depending on the venue though, you may be able to hear the show without issue while in line for merch/bathroom/etc - but it’s always a bummer being next in line for the bathroom and hearing your favorite song start!!!

All in all, I actually prefer going to concerts alone because I can just stand/sit somewhere and not really have to worry about my friends (who love dancing) & do stuff like spend 30 minutes in the merch line as soon as the venue opens or sit down and vibe the entire concert - so have fun!!

I’ve never donated to either user (as far as I can remember, at least, but it has been like 5 years) but I’m not gonna say she should be banned if they are one and the same. I think this post was worth making if it helps keep someone who may be also struggling & is unaware they’re likely fueling a drug addiction from giving if they don’t feel like they have to. Basically I’m not saying that you’re in the wrong or anything for doing so. If they are storyofrachel, then I do think they should probably at the very least, DM you an apology for the slurs and general scam.

But…

Isn’t the whole concept of mutual aid centered around giving without a ton of expectations? I’m talking purely 21st century mutual aid and not like, the French peasant ‘I’ll give you some milk and bread if you help clear the stables’ mutual aid that Kropotkin wrote about. Who is to say that the $5k they’ve received from kind users didn’t keep them alive to some extent? Yeah that’s probably largely bullshit, and a huge amount of money to have received from kind strangers; but I personally think its probably better to think (or at least, hope) your money brought them some level of momentary peace rather than get mad because they’re still asking for help which may or may not ultimately be used on drugs rather than getting them out of a hard place.

I just think shitting on them in this thread & banning them isn’t going to really solve anything. I’ve never donated to either user, so I don’t really have a stake in this, but I do think (or at least, hope lol) that anyone who HAS donated to anyone in this comm probably is doing it because they’re a good person - not because they’re expecting the recipient to be telling the truth or otherwise.

Right??? Like the article/landlord clearly are making it sound like they were just growing full-sized weed plants in a ‘soil room’ but that’s so nonsensical to me given that, like you said, pots or grow-bags can be upsized enough to grow 6ft actual trees at nurseries so I’m unsure why anyone would be like “lets just grow them in 3ft of soil in a bedroom”. The landlord absolutely had to have dumped a bunch of pots or something out into a room as a way to make the ‘damage’ worse I don’t believe anything else LOL

If I could just designate a whole 10x10 area with multiple levels as a ‘catacomb’ and not have to worry about only a single dwarf being buried there; I would absolutely be way more into the kind of Moria style of tomb/catacombs with statues and slabs but having to add a door aggravates me so my dwarves tend to get chucked into warehouses unless they’ve done something really badass like die fighting a forgotten beast

I’m very confused as to what the purpose of dumping soil onto the floor was. Like did the landlord do this as part of an attempt at insurance fraud??

‘10 tonnes of soil’ is 22046 pounds of soil. And that’s literal miracle-gro style store bought potting soil from the excessive amounts of perlite mixed in as shown in the article’s pictures. A 50qt bag of miracle gro is like $15 and is ~20 pounds or something. You’re telling me they just had like $16k of potting soil they’d bought, dumped out of the bag onto the floor, and then also were going through the motion of putting weed seedlings into pots as shown by the other pics???

It’s completely dry soil in that room too - I just don’t understand why the tenants would’ve rolled out a tarp (you can see it in the pic), unbagged the clearly storebought soil, and then filled up the various pots they have with it. And if it was to simulate actually being outdoors and to grow larger plants in ‘3ft deep soil’, WHY the potting soil and why does the room’s walls look spotless?? surely there should’ve been some water damage if not just obvious signs of plants being grown…

The sophisticated lighting setup, which included specialist grow lamps, had been rigged up throughout the house. The intense heat generated by these lamps also caused damage to the property, with burn marks and melted fixtures visible in several rooms.

where?? literally none of the pics have any burn marks or melted fixtures visible. I’m not gonna say grow-lights DON’T get hot, but that’s pretty wild to claim and not have any pics of…

crazy how there’s only like one pic of the central hallway in the article and the shit looks immaculate, which isn’t what you’d figure from apparently having tenants using an entire room as a…open air store-bought potting soil storage facility?? like someone definitely bypassed the meter (good for them) so I don’t doubt there was some sort of grow op going on inside the home but the soil thing and other claims are kinda sus lol.

He knocked on the door and was greeted by several men, with one claiming the property was in good condition. Within half an hour, these men had disappeared, although we don’t know what role they played in the farm.

Mr Reeves said: "Emotionally, it feels like my home has been defiled. That’s what it feels like. The damage, the dirt, all this dirt everywhere.

Police have stated that what happened to the Reeves family is still under investigation, but the reality is that innocent landlords are being left to pick up the pieces of London’s growing drug crime problem.

I rate this BBC article 5/5 for landlord and drug-war propaganda lol. someone please make the soil room make sense to me

The coffins by the apartments is such a great use of the extra space I’m weak but think we should do this in real life. Imagine walking through the Hall of Past Tenants on your way to your apartment with a bunch of coffins and slabs memorializing the fallen. One day I’ll be able to just designate a whole 10z level deep square as a tomb and fill it up with 200 coffins and be done with the annoyance. (although in the current fort I’ve been fucking around with I’ve just stuck a bunch of coffins in a single room as dwarves/pets die and designated them as a 1x1 tomb each time…)

STOP i was very tempted initially to just reply with something in the same ‘lib scold’ vein like “i just wish everyone could walk a mile in someone else’s shoes…” with no elaboration but I didn’t wanna be dragged across the site lmao

hahahaha that was supposed to be read with a very sarcastic scolding tone
