“What do the simple folk do?” And then HR got involved.

“They got snakes out there that big?” And then HR got involved.

I don’t envy you for having to make that decision, but I deeply respect your choice. 👍🏽

One thing bugging me about old tech is people continuing to use it when doing so can cause problems. I got my Econ degree in a program taught by the biggest names in the field at the time. 101 was taught by a guy whose name was on the book used by most departments in the English speaking...

I don’t have anything that old, AFAIK. At least not as a discrete, distinct object still in its original form. Mom has some jewelry partially made with Roman beads, though, and some with slightly younger African beads. Our dining room table set is approximately 200 years old, though.

“What’s in the box?!??” And now HR is involved.

FYI, also don’t respond to moderation texts in-thread. That can get you moderated as well. A private message is preferred. Using the “like” button is usually acceptable. (I understand why you did- did exactly that here myself YEARS ago, before I became a Mod.)

Mod Note: This & your other recent posts in this thread have been more confrontational in their rhetoric- especially some of your bolded phrases- and composition than is usually tolerated on ENWorld. Find better ways of expressing yourself. For instance: “I disagree.” would be preferred over...

Well, anyone familiar with my posting here will probably not be surprised to see me drop in!😂 My best campaign EVER was a HERO game set in 1900, using the Space:1889 RPG setting. Besides that and the same inspirations that game’s designers used, I also drew from William Gibson, Michael...

My mentally ill godmother expressed that concern of me to my parents during The Satanic Panic. But because they knew me and knew her, they didn’t take it or her seriously.🤷🏾‍♂️ (I will note that Mom was more worried by my newish interest in heavy metal, which concern passed relatively...

The latter can get you killed when swimming or flying.

Ever hear of “drapetomania”? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drapetomania 🫤

I can’t say I’m a fan of his, but his novelette “Sandkings” is really good- it won a Hugo & a Nebula. It was originally published in Omni magazine, then in a couple of collections, and has been adapted for visual media at least once- it was the first episode of the 1995 Outer Limits series...

Yep!

Torchy’s? As in the Austin taco chain?

@Morrus Question: have you ever seen the Central Casting books from Task Force Games? They’re long out of print, but they were essentially books of genre specific tables to roll on to flesh out character backgrounds (and, to a certain extent, equipment lists).

I’ve never cured anything, so I’m going out on a limb doing this, and in on a timeline that doesn’t leave much room for error. At best, I estimate I’d have two good dry runs to figure out the flavor. And yeah, ingredients flavors & chemical effects in a recipe can vary greatly depending on how...

You should figure out what it is. If you’re not using it, you could gift it to another player or sell it on Reverb.com. Some older pedals are commanding STUPID prices.

The main logistical concern is TIME. There’s at least one ingredient- pink pickling salt- which is REQUIRED according to all the recipes I’ve seen, and isn’t what you’re thinking it could be. There are no lsubstitutes. Which means I have to get my hands on some- as well as some other esoteric...
