A little rich for now, all things considered. But I’ll keep it on my radar.

That whole bundle is available for a limited time. I'm not trying to pressure you, just letting you know. They might make it available again if and when they do another crowdfunding campaign. I'm sure I'll get a notification when they do. The pre-order window is open until November 9th or 19th. I'm going to put aside some money and get the latest books before it ends.

I'm tempted to go see the original Transformers movie. It's playing at a local theater. It's the first movie I remember going to see without parents. My cousin and I got dropped off to see it

And Ninja Scroll is playing at another theater.
I have this one on VHS somewhere.
I want it to be dubbed though. When I watch anime I want to watch the anime not read the whole time. I feel less in to it.

Ghost in the Shell is this week not Ninja Scroll. It starts on October 4th. I need to go see The Odyssey. I haven't seen it yet and want to see it on the big screen. Even though I have a projector and screen here. It's not the same.

The talking Cheeto claimed Iran's inflation was at 300%. It's high but not even 1/3 of his claim.
Google says the highest inflation ever was Hungary in 1946. Peak monthly rate was 41.9 quadrillion percent. I don't know how that's possible. Prices were doubling every 15 hours.

I cheated, I "borrowed" a picture from the current crowdfunding campaign for Heroes of Might and Magic III. The newest ones they're currently funding are at the bottom. If my math is right. It's the base game and 17 expansions and stretch goal boxes all together. I don't have the bottom row yet. They're claiming this will be the last.

The monks who founded the private school I graduated from were all Hungarian nationals who escaped in the 1950s, and occasionally told tales of shopping for groceries with literal wheelbarrows of cash.

It's crazy. I know people complained a lot about inflation under Biden. And it's really high now. Like I said Iran isn't at 300%, from what I read, it's 88%. That's still phenomenally high. Inflation was and still is higher in other countries. We've been comparatively lucky. I want to be able to keep that in mind.

I'm not sure why, but Pathfinder has gray aliens. Numeria has alien tech like androids (as a playable race) so I guess grays aren't too far.

Remember AD&D had “Expedition to the Barrier Peaks”.

I also have a campaign setting where crashlanded Grays used holographic tech to disguise themselves as “elves” of legends (the only ones who actually exist), and their stasis tech is why time in Underhill (the remnants of their crashed ship) passes differently.

I remember it. I've always wanted to play through it.

I just thought it was funny. It seems like the only mention of Grays in official books is the entry in the Bestiary 5 book.

Now I want to come up with an encounter for a party of murder hobos. They're in camp when they're surrounded by a bright light from above. Grays are CR 4. IIRC that means one is a challenge for a party of 4th level PCs? I'll try to play up the PROBE ability. It's a mental problem but the players don't have to know that right away.
