Why are our characters the protagonists everywhere they go?
  • I had an NPC that was a priest of the goddess of luck, and collected tythe by playing Liars' Dice in taverns. Our barbarian lost like all of his gold to him lol

    He didn't survive long, but the party being cursed by the goddess of luck was even more fun

  • The Deep Ties Between the US Drug War and Israeli Forces
  • Explains why they won't say anything bad about Israel. That's their next step

  • Former President Trump is found guilty in historic New York criminal case
  • There haven't been any similar cases to this

    He absolutely still won't see prison, but it's not because of sentencing guidelines

  • Biden campaign on Trump verdict: 'No one is above the law'
  • All those Republicans are gonna have to square their "law and order" worldview with voting for a CONVICTED FELON.

    Why? Cognitive dissonance is their bread and butter. They wouldn't be Republicans if they couldn't believe two totally mutually exclusive things at the same time

  • Biden campaign on Trump verdict: 'No one is above the law'
  • House arrest with an ankle monitor might be the way to go. No way he obeys the rules, so it can be a stepping stone into convicting him of even more stuff! Lol

  • Biden campaign on Trump verdict: 'No one is above the law'
  • Community service would be hilarious

  • TRUMP GUILTY ON ALL 34 COUNTS
  • That would be amazing

  • Donald Trump found guilty in N.Y. hush money trial
  • Jury found Donald Trump guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records, a felony. He faces up to 4 years in prison.

    FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS!

  • Biden gives Ukraine permission to carry out limited strikes within Russia using US weapons
  • Sorry, these new US weapons take some getting used to. We'll definitely get it right next time. Promise

  • A year after Titan sub implosion, an Ohio billionaire says he wants to make his own voyage to Titanic wreckage
  • Who needs guillotines when we can just crush all the billionaires beneath the weight of mile of ocean?

  • TIL about a Arkansas school that turned solar savings into better teacher pay
  • Arkansas was also a bit of a giveaway

  • Russian disinformation sites linked to former Florida deputy sheriff, research finds
  • Clemson University linked Dougan to the network of fake news websites last year after one of them was found to share an IP address with other sites he ran, including his personal website.

    He didn't even try to hide it lol

  • Spain, Norway and Ireland formally recognize a Palestinian state as EU rift with Israel widens
  • It's a one state this, two states that. I'm for a no state solution. And not just for Israel and Palestine. Just shut it all down. All the way back to agriculture. That's where it all went wrong. Make Humanity Nomads Again

  • When the DM tries to make it as obvious as possible
  • "Alright guys, so, obviously it's cursed. But imagine how good it would be if we could sneak it into some bad guy's pocket. I pick up the gem."

  • I can't decide what the inverse would be.
  • Looking like a boot

  • Proposed Texas GOP platform calls for the Bible in schools, electoral changes that would lock Democrats out of statewide office
  • Holding out hope the earth has some meta narrative baked in, so that if you believe it's flat, you can fall off

  • New Lawsuit ‘on the Table’ After Trump Attacks E. Jean Carroll—Again
  • As long as he never gets elected again, I am content with him living out the rest of his life constantly in court

  • YouTube has now begun skipping videos altogether for users with ad blockers
  • I have noticed slightly worse performance across the web in general though

  • The Apiarist

    This is a personal creation, so I apologize if the name is already taken.

    *1.5oz gin *1oz Amaro Sfumato Rabarbaro *.75oz honey syrup *.5oz lemon juice

    Shaken and served with an expressed lemon peel, and a dash of Hummingbird Bitters

    Orion Hurricanes for the Star Trek Lower Decks finale tonight

    Unfortunately, you can't get real Orion Dulac in Michigan, so this is my take on what Mariner would have served Those Old Scientists

    • 1.5oz White rum (I used Plantation 3 Star)
    • .75oz Cinnamon syrup
    • .75oz Lime juice
    • .5oz Absinthe (I used what they make at my local distillery, American Fifth)
    • .5oz John D. Taylor Velvet Falernum Liqueur
    • 1 barspoon Blue curaçao (for colour)

    Shake, and double strain. Garnish with a cinnamon stick, and slowly pour in two barspoon of grenadine so that it sinks to the bottom. This could also be swapped for butterfly pea flower syrup, which is purple. I just wanted the grenadine flavor

    My first complete battle map

    This is for an upcoming session this Saturday. I've never been the kind of person that's into drawing, but I'm GMing my own PTU campaign, and I hated making maps online lol

    I've been practicing for about a week now, and I'm pretty happy with this little map.

    The setting is a small cave, complete with giant mushrooms, crystals, and a pond, which served as the improvised "break room," for a couple of miners my players found the skeletons of at the end of the last session.

    The Captain's Blood

    First cocktail made in my new bar! Just moved, and finally have it set up. Lots of decorating left for the new space though.

    This is a basic twist on a Daquiri.

    • 3oz Angostura 5 Year Caribbean Rum
    • 1.5oz lime juice
    • .66oz rich symple syrup (.75oz if you use 1:1)
    • 3-4 dashes Angostura aromatic bitters

    Shake, double strain, and garnish with a lime wedge.

    Corpse Reviver No.2

    The ultimate brunch cocktail.

    Equal parts gin, orange liqueur, Lillet Blanc, and lemon juice, shaken and served in an absinthe rinsed coupe.

    I think this drink alone is enough reason to keep Lillet on hand. American Fifth is my local distillery; I highly recommend their spirits if you get the chance, but any absinthe will do here.

    A Classic Sidecar

    Mostly wanted to post because I feel like I did a really good job on the sugared rim lol

    This is one of my favorite cocktails

    1.5oz brandy .75oz orange liqueur .75oz lemon juice

    Shake, double strain, serve in a glass with a sugared rim, and garnish with a orange twist. I expressed mine.

    Not a reflection on meme quality, but on meme alignment

    Maybe a little too meta, but I think we could use Dukat for memes specifically meant to express funny, but bad, opinions

    Nuclear Daquiri in leaded crystal (for safety)

    It's been a while, but I got some new glassware, and wanted to try it out. I felt like a Nuclear Daquiri was appropriate for leaded crystal. I tweaked the recipe a bit to my own tastes, I'll denote that below

    • 1oz Overproof White Rum - Wray and Nephew
    • .5oz White Rum - Plantation 3 Star (omit for basic recipe)
    • .66oz Galliano (Green Chartreuse for basic recipe)
    • .75oz Lime Juice
    • .33oz Falernum

    Shake and double strain, garnish however you like

    Sidewinder's Fang

    • 1.5oz Orange juice
    • 1.5oz Lime juice
    • 1.5oz Passionfruit syrup

    Shake with ice and strain into a glass with more ice. Top with club soda. Garnish with a mint sprig and a sidewinder

    Romulan Ale for SNW S2

    I always like to do a cocktail for releases of things I'm excited for. This is based on Greg from How to Drink's recipe, but with a few tweaks

    • 1.5oz Wray and Nephew
    • 1.5oz Plantation 5 Year
    • .75oz Blue curacao
    • .75oz Mint syrup
    • Juice of half a lemon
    • Club soda to top

    Shake and strain, serve over crushed ice. Top with club soda, and more crushed ice. Garnish with a lemon twist.

    I used the Wray and Nephew and the mint, because Romulan Ale is supposed to smell extremely strongly, and those ingredients definitely do. It's kind of like a funky Mojito. I like it a lot
