Do you hibernate for winter?

Nothing is gonna change while the DNC and RNC control the US.

That’ll never happen in America, too damaging to corporate interests.

We’re stuck voting for shit heels who won’t help working class folks for the rest of time.

Gary Fucking Gygax said that the DM sometimes rolls dice because it sounds good.

Have fun with your games above all else, rules are a cage, D&D blows chunks why won’t anyone play fucking Traveller

Buddy, if you’ve eaten at a restaurant, you’ve had worse.

I don’t think recommending people to do 40 + hour fasts is a good idea.

Yeah it BLOWS! I make my own now, way better and cheaper.

What app are you using that works well? I’ve been using Sync but it frequently tells me there are comments that it can’t load. And finding new communities isn’t the easiest.

Seriously, it’s already impossible to get a decently spicy hot sauce at the grocery store.

Even the stuff covered in skulls or warnings or labeled “ghost pepper” are so diluted that they hardly count. Look, they’re hot, but ghost pepper in particular has become a buzzword, turning it nigh meaningless in determining how hot a sauce will be. Such a shame, too, as the ghost pepper has a delightful high intensity, low burn heat and sweet finish.

Yeah, but there are hotter peppers and foods available and the jalapeño is an incredibly mild pepper, it’s barely spicy and not a good comparison.

Challenge foods and sauces in general tend to also use pure capsaicin extract to really bring home the heat, but this tends to affect the flavor and make it bitter and unpleasant. Foods shouldn’t be “challenging” you to eat them and then artificially raising the stakes. It’s hard enough to get decently hot foods as it is, having to keep an eye out for companies “cheating” by using the pure extract from the peppers is annoying.

I’m having some fun playing it, but mostly in customizing my ship and setting up automated production via the outpost system.

The RPG elements feel uninspired and the writing pales in comparison to, say, Baldur’s Gate 3, but I feel Larian set a new standard of greatness with their work on the characters and writing there. Starfield feels flat by comparison.

Idk how far you are into the game, but “Skyrim in space” is a shockingly apt reduction of the story.

It’s okay, they never have anything interesting or useful to say anyway. They are cardboard cutouts of tropes as deep as the petri dish used to grow their faces.

But it is funny to see three of them walk uncomfortably close to one another in tight, uniform formation before turning simultaneously to look at me and utter forth a generic attempt at local color.

Capsaicin extract should be banned from food in general.

It’s unpleasant and tastes astringent, unlike the capsaicin coming naturally from peppers.

I’ll regularly eat incredibly spicy foods, I grow Naga, scorpion and ghost chilis, and I love the thrill of these treats, but also the flavor. Capsaicin extract is immediately detectable because the flavor and feel of the heat is different and unpleasant. It isn’t that it’s “too spicy”, it feels bad to eat.

If your heat doesn’t come from a pepper included in the recipe, it shouldn’t be consumed.

The study methodology is really flawed. They polled people on what they had for dinner “yesterday” and used that be indicative of entire diets of all Americans.

While it’s likely that there are some Americans who eat far more beef than some others, this data is a farce.

I see far FAR more people complaining about tankies and posts talking shit about tankies than I ever see posts or comments by tankies.

It’s honestly tiresome.

Edit: Turns out the instance I made this account on isn’t federated with the instance generating the posts y’all are complaining about. So I literally can’t seem em. Sorry for being an ass about it, I just didn’t know how it worked!

Holy shit that episode sucks so much!!! I read into it once, because it was shocking that it was even made, but apparently there was a recent discovery disproving the concept of repressed memories and so it was supposed to be an episode reflecting that scientific development, but instead it came across as “don’t necessarily trust women about sexual violence, sometimes they make shit up”

What? Humans have always loved contraceptives! Humans have wiped out entire plant species because they worked as contraceptives and we love fucking without consequence.

The study methods themselves are bogus. They asked people to recall what they ate “last night” and called that indicative of diets.

It’s flawed data without use.
