That's not what I'm talking about though. If someone is that passionate over how a game should be written, then they should write it themselves or find another game that's closer to their vision; not scream at other people how to do it for them. If that means making a 1:1 mechanical copy of AD&D...

Certainly got a chuckle out of me at first for being so over the top, but then made me kind of sad there's people this angry over what other create. If you're that passionate about something, time to get to work yourself and not rely on others.

With actual AD&D being easily accessible and OSRIC already serving as a perfect free clone, I'm much more interested in what Mat's perfect version would look like. If anyone could improve on the old rules, it would be him. Also @darjr , that picture absolutely brightened my evening, thanks for...

I really need to be better about this. Same with keeping bones for stocks and cilantro stems for marinades.

BtB for life! Don't think I'll ever buy broth again. Oh, and if you haven't yet, drop by their webstore to see all the different flavors. I really don't like cook books based on media, but my wife convinced to try the D&D ones. This soup was one of the reasons. Glad I did, because there are...

Awesome! You're going to love it! One of the upsides of eating out being so expensive is it's easier to justify kitchen purchases like these. My step-brother and I love sushi and Vietnamese fried rice. Both cost us around $20 each, so my Zoji has more than payed for itself by now. :D Oh...

That is really interesting, thanks for sharing. I think the verbal aspect is similar to my wife's in that she doesn't have an inner monologue, but can create verbal "lists" (as she calls them) in order to execute tasks. Exactly me. And since most of the games I've played are so grid/miniatures...

@Staffan Too cool! Thanks so much! Just watched it and that's exactly what I was looking for. That first comment from @jazzygaming420 had me rolling:

Practical. I talked to a lot people today and think I have a clearer idea of how they might go about it. Coming from someone who's 100% verbal, 0% visual, this entire concept just blew my mind.

No, not at all. Just curious how they think. Specifically those that don't use an inner voice whatsoever. I was reading about people who thought "thought bubbles" in comics were just artistic license and didn't actually believe people thought to themselves that way. Curious how someone who...

I think you're right. I polled all my coworkers today and this seems to be very much on a gradient. For me, it's pretty much 100% of the time having a conversation with my self while others described thinking as pulling data out of folders. For instance, there's a meeting on Monday. In my...

@Dannyalcatraz As another option, I also use my Instant Pot to make to make non-plain rice all the time, so that would work too! Here's a vid on brown rice, a vid on Jasmine, and another on Mexican for some examples.

I just got done watching The Killer (2023) which features a character that is constantly thinking to himself. Once it was over, I hopped online to read other's reviews of it and became puzzled at a few responses that didn't understand the "inner monologuing" that was happening. That led me down...

I know it's expensive, but Zoji is a worldwide name for a reason. I've had mine for 6 years now and have been enjoying perfect rice twice a week. It's been especially nice for consistent sushi rice since that's one of my favorite dishes. I'd recommend the following, but they do offer many other...

Well I just went all in on the standard set. I don't think I've ever been this excited about a TTRPG release.

Only use I've found for sweet onions is Hawaiian potato mac salad. I imagine they're popular though with as much as they grow/stock them?

Reminds me of the time my wife and I got condensed milk and evaporated milk mixed up. Our "dessert" mac n' cheese was so gross we haven't made the same mistake again!

I forgot to mention, what got me down this rabbit hole in the fist place was I read Chili's was no longer serving chili. I didn't even know it was on the menu! Did some digging and turns out that's how the restaurant started, serving beer and chili. That led to others claiming it was "Terlingua"...

MSG, MSG, and more MSG! 😄 Never heard of it, but certainly will! I don't think I've ever cooked the same chili recipe twice. So much fun to hop around and try new ones. Even... Cincinnati variants! Oooh... for others that are interested, these look amazing...

Been shopping around for a good Texas chili and think I found a winner here!: https://www.chattygourmet.com/archives/susans-terlingua-international-championship-chili/
