Does failure to launch count as a launch?

Well, there's an actual cowboy in Dracula. He is even the one to kill him. For some reason, he tends to be ignored in most adaptations.

Must confess the story gave me some kind of "this sounds a bit like early dementia".

TIL about the "Italian Forrest Gump". In 2020, during the pandemic lockdowns, a man had a discussion with his wife, left and began to walk away to cool down. A week and 450km later, he was detained by the Italian police for breaking curfew. He was fined €400 and got reunited with his wife after...

It isn't needed for that, but an HOA can drive values up. Sometimes so well that the homes become too valuable and unaffordable even for their current owners. And with the current market conditions many houses are now liquidity traps, unsellable becaues nobody can afford to buy them.

I knew I was saving these links for a rainy day: In short, the most important thing is to shut the f up and tell no soul.

The moment you're glad with your lot in life and not having to give a concrete answer to a philosophical question because it is a life or death answer since you live with a self-imposed burden that does nothing for you or anybody else.

The problem they have is that they have too much power for a position with very little accountability. In my country they are a thing, but it is either a more informal affair or a formal one with limited power -restricting usage of facilities, gates, or some non-essential services-. An...

If I was ever in the position of getting a home in the States -which isn't ever happening, I don't think I could ever do it here at home-, my prime requisite to the agent would be "No HOA, I'll sue you if you make me lose my time by even suggesting it."

I bet I'll end up paying for playing some day if push comes to shove. Money isn't an issue. Time is the issue.

TIL (ok, two days ago, but I was busy with work) that bear dogs are a thing. (Ok were a thing). Ancient mammals that looked like bears with the built of a dog.

I'm in the case were I liked beng aligned with the big dog, but now that it is slipping away from what I like, I'm just happy if I can find somewhere with enough people to play with that let's me do it. Unlike other kind of hobbies, community is very important in RPGs. Without the social aspect...

Click the reader view mode (F9 in Firefox). It removes everything but the recipe.

It's never going to happen. There's no way a powerful man won't find a way to trade his wife for a younger and hotter one, or more. Specially among these circles that statistically rush to establish polygamy for the elites the moment they can.

Yesterday A.- What a tragedy, the song that was made to vent rage on digital piracy can only be heard if you pirate it. Gonna share a mini rant on the internet about the irony and how corporate greed is its own worst enemy. B.- Do you like yo hear yourself talking? Is this a crude excuse to...

Specially not Lego, not with these prices.

Probably more expensive than the ultra detailed $1000 Death Star.

Oh but you see, he isn't a modern tank, he is a futuristic Cybertronian tank! (The same loophole that lets them do Star wars)

I heard, supposedly, a Megatron is in the way.
