TL;DR improvement: I have a headache and have decided not to eat halloween candy in favor of drinking wine, as a means of assaulting the headache. I wonder if there is a mathematical formula for how much of my headache is caused by various sources. Heathens is basically the only song on the radio an...

Ok, so, here's the thing: It's going to cost most of the cash I have to hire an engineer to help build reinforcements or shelters in Sandpoint, and to then travel to Fort Rannick with a crew to consult on needed refurbishing of the Fort, the Mines, and the Dam (i.e. so as to find a way to control fl...

Not only are they not planning to confirm Garland even if Clinton is elected, but a whole group of the Republican leadership is now saying that they won't confirm ANYONE for FOUR YEARS of a Clinton presidency. No W. T. F. is big and flashing neon enough for that. I want my goddamn democracy back - i...

Let's pretend that both Hillary and Donald are equally morally failed human beings, and that their moral failures would have an equal effect on their governance of the nation. If you are an anti-abortion voter who literally cares about nothing else, or the else you care about is ridding the country ...

I totally hear you. I am Sooooo hungry all the time and lately also just really tired.

Haven't watched Sesame Street in years and for some reason have that theme song in my head.

Scary day; scary evening. I'm going to pretend none of it means anything but it was scary.

And riddle me this, alt-righters who hunger for a virile, putinesque white fascist leader: Why are the intellectual leading lights of your own movement either gay or only interested in non-white women (or men), and not one of you looks like the pure example of Nordic manhood you supposedly prize? Me...

I always used to go out on Halloween with my friend and her kids. Sigh. Now I just hand out candy. Ron always gets to do the walking around. It is a sad evening for a person dangerously surrounded by starbursts and twix.

"Emit here for a flooded tilt of congruous devices."

The only way this could improve is if it linked to a live webcam of an accountant diligently working on balance sheets. Finally a type of porn that might be worth watching.

Exactly. You're not making a temporary change here; you're making a life change for happiness. When you drink water and exercise and eat great foods in the right amount, you feel great! We want to feel great. We deserve it. Remember how bad it feels to scrounge a meal out of the quickie mart, and ho...

Slightly over two weeks of careful calorie monitoring. Zero pounds lost. I seriously do not know. Is my body rebelling, or trying to store up as much as possible for the winter hibernation? This is very irritating. I used to read things like "dieters get discouraged when they don't see progress...

Wow. Y'all have no fear.

I get what you're saying personally and agree; but as far as Dwyn goes, I don't think she's going to follow any of the hypotheticals about what Grobaras might do or not do. Surely he wants us to defend his holdings, right? And surely Sandpoint is one of them? So obviously since we just defended the ...

Holding off on a few things in Magnimar that the rest of the party might want to talk Dwyn out of, can we assume that the following IC actions occur without incident? - We meet that first night back at the Rusty Dragon and work out our new business arrangements as a group. - Dwyn, with help from her...

Yes, I believe in some cases it requires an entire feature length movie.

Well, as we age...

Other Jeweled Heart info, for anyone else following our progress: We lost one player (Ron/Petunia), one hasn't been active lately (The Master's Myrdinn), and so if anyone would like to leap in due to the massive amounts of free time on your plate, there is opportunity to do so. I would simply swap o...
