Started two batches of summer cider and a summer fruit wine last night. Should be good. Even though I'll have like 8 gallons of the stuff. Made a Greek Egg Feta, Spinach Casserole for some work lunches this week which turned out amazingly well and both super cheap and easy to do.

Tiamat's Wrath suffers from the same thing the Xeelee Sequence will suffer from but it won't have the logical payoff either (Xeelees were right and humans were retards the whole time).

Just finished book 7 of Critical Failures. That is one quality series bros. The bard's rise to fame as a Neil Diamond cover artist just fucking cracks me up. Denise the over the top racist cop in a fantasy world is A++ and constantly delivers. Something about calling Drow, "american inventor...

There was no need to since we saw Qyburn make The Mountain into something else and, "heal" him explicitly. Robert Strong was just a ruse to hide that because the use of black magic and shit is extremely frowned upon in Westeros even by those who know it exists. In the book world anyway. But it...

Hot damn Demon Hunter has some exceptional animation quality. Pretty interesting when they combine the ancient Japan artstyle with the water blade and whatnot. Really digging it.

You cure most kids of being picky with the age old strategy of, "You don't like what I make you can starve, you'll get hungry eventually." This was employed by my family quite explicitly. Low and behold hunger wins over pickiness every time. None of us remained picky for very long.

By try I mean I just want to take a few bites of one. Obviously not going to go to Colorado for that thing or make it myself. But if I ever see it on a menu somewhere bet your ass I'll order it. Taste two bites of it and then toss it in disgust.

I've had morbid curiosity about trying one of these for years. Any of you nerds had it? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fool's_Gold_Loaf

Buying a BBQ for my backyard finally and going to try my hand at some Brisket. Will tell you how it goes.

Huh? Garo actually has character development not some random space alien.

Garo is actually a really awesome villain.

No joke. I hate fighting games but this guy's streams are always really enjoyable. This gear system in a fighting game is fucking nuts. I don't mind a grind but leveling up characters and gear... lolwut? Their storefront is directly copied from the Fortnite store. Some geniuses over there...

To be fair in the Army the MREs come in those 12-pack boxes. That is the unit they are manufactured in. You paid more for some piecemeal shit.

Amazon has surplus MRE with inspection date of 2019 for ~$80 / box. I think they contain 12 in each box I don't remember. Which calculates out to about $6.5 per I guess. Cheaper than I expected to be honest. If he's rocking that disability too he's probably pulling around $130-150k a year in...

I just don't get it if you're doing dev tasks in Jira or some shit. What did you do for the previous 12 hours Sir? Oh IDK, maybe that dev task that took me 3 days to fucking finish. Which you can see in Jira. Nah put it in PPM too.

So my new job has some DND nerds I'm going to be joining. They're playing Waterdeep. I am not familiar with this specifically but I am familiar with Forgotten Realms. Tiefling Wildmage time boys, let's cause a ruckus.

Sounds like every training you ever did was 2 hours or more if you know what I mean.

GM's was just to project. So if you were assigned 1 project, that's where it all went. Unless you got all dinky and itemized for time you spent training or practicing this or that. Which nobody I ever knew did. I asked the HR girl about timesheets at the new job and she was a, "what? Oh no only...

Realized the new job doesn't keep timesheets if you're salaried. Amazing. I always thought having a timesheet system on top of a task management system (sometimes multiple of these for ticketing, Dev, etc) was a bit retarded.

I am really digging Demon Hunter. So glad the 2 year training shit was just that one episode lol. Nice work.

Just wait until you level up into the art of Rat Fucking.

Yet some morons won't try it because it's, "gas station food."

I've eaten literally thousands of MRE's AMA. The two you had there are new menus to me. There was a southwest something IIRC. The only rule of my day (2005-2011) was to avoid the fucking omelette one. That thing was disgusting. People claim the Jambalaya was bad but they're a bunch of pussies...

I do have all weekend this weekend.

I said no such thing.

To be fair there was one other new hire on the same day as me who was her actual employee and we all sit in the same space in the office. As I have no actual team to sit with.

Haven't been able to shitpost since I have actually really been enjoying this new job. I completed the public certification on their product today. My fourth day there and this is a new record for the company. The sales dudes are required to get this in the first two weeks and I just wanted to...

If only Shadow Master was a job title. I create technical shortcuts with no oversight that the company is now completely dependent on and nobody other than me understands it. Also I didn't document shit so I'm indispensable now. Give me raises.

Also, I actually enjoy the... long commute to work I have now. I used to dick off and drive 5 minutes to the office and never deal with traffic. Which was awesome. But having to (in Austin, TX) force myself out the door at 6AM, hit the gym, drive to the train, enjoy 30 minutes of reading, then...

This reeks of San Francisco.

It was Stanke. My roommate at university was an asian dude with the last name of Stanke too. But he wasn't a bitch.

Just found out my new boss got married and took his wife's name. Not sure if I can respect the, "man" now.

I just started a Data Science position and I'm engineering their entire platform now. I couldn't be happier this is something I really really wanted to do. I was never a BI guy specifically, but I have done some reporting stuff. If you are focusing more on Front End reporting this is a BI...

Haven't watched yet. Will tonight. But y'all need to read the War of the Roses. It's absurd how much grrm borrowed from one of the English civil wars. Robert Barratheon is literally King Edward IV. Fascinating stuff.

It must be. By themselves spiderbot and magnetic poison are fine. Why do you let huntr trigger the spiderbot deathrattle 5x times in the average game with oblivitron, fireworks technician, and nine lives? Priest has the only similar card with their new 5 drop and they only have a 9 Mana spell...

I really don't understand why they gave Hunter so many board control tools. Magnetic Poison bot and Spiderbot can just wreck people. That and the summer 5/5 rush Twinspell thing. Secondly, how can they admit that cheating out cards a la cubelock was bad while just shifting the cheat out shit to...

If ONLY they had something like the Thrawn trilogy to draw on right? I mean, if you wanted mountains of Star Wars Bucks just make that a movie trilogy and let the cash come in man.

I am a fighter pilot in an incredibly fast and versatile aircraft capable of both atmospheric and space flight. Let's rundown some bitch. Like outright run her over even though I have space lazers and this is one of the few individuals in the entire universe who could potentially win a 1v1 vs...

I've been getting some good mileage out of Handlock. Which was one of my favorite old school decks. Rafaam is a pretty fun card. I've only put together some priest stuff and warlock stuff so far. Will probably add some more to a paladin deck and control shaman actually looks okay right now too...
