    Sounds delicious! I've found I don't like coleslaw on its own, but love it on tacos and sandwiches for some reason.

    Oh yeah, our supermarket bread is trash. My friends and I have all been baking on our own. That is understatement! We literally have corn in EVERYTHING. And thanks to the carbon dioxide shortage, our sodas pretty much go flat in minutes now, despite being around $10 for 12-pack. Dr. Pepper...

    ALIEN RPG Launches New Kickstarter

    I'm in the same boat. The new rule changes have to be 1) more substantial than a page of errata I can just print out and tape to the inside cover and 2) markedly better to get another purchase from me.

    @Zardnaar Great pics today! Everything looks like "real food" compared to the overpriced, premade, frozen meals the restaurants in my small town serve. Wasn't always this way, but COVID lockdowns really did a number on us. 😢

    OSR New changes are afoot for OSRIC!

    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...

    OSR New changes are afoot for OSRIC!

    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.

    OSR New changes are afoot for OSRIC!

    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...

    GMing without an inner monologue.

    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...

    GMing without an inner monologue.

    @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:

    GMing without an inner monologue.

    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.

    GMing without an inner monologue.

    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...

    GMing without an inner monologue.

    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.

    GMing without an inner monologue.

    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...

    Shadowdark Setting Looks Set To Be 2025's First Million Dollar TTRPG Crowdfunder

    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?
