i'm gonna see if my seldarine drow sorcerer can grab them outside the nautiloid wreck, but crossreferencing through all the companions to figure out which races and classes are unused, was thinking of making a knight but there's already a fighter... martial artist half-orc may be the wave

Okay, so I can either start over (considering a half-orc monk) or load from the initial ship crash, b/c I somehow also missed Gale (lmao)

CUISINE DE LA 'POCALYPSE has too many cooks in the kitchen — Moviejawn by Kevin Fox, Jr., Staff Writer Very funny at times, and appears like it was fun to make, Cuisine de la ‘Pocalypse left me wanting for something more thematically coherent or technically excellent.

Avoided fighting Lae’zel’s people because I was getting washed. Put it off and now she’s dead. Technically only nine hours into the game though it’s probably taken me more than a calendar year. Should I restart?

I won’t name the indie media podcasts because of matters of scale, but if Charlie reads ChatGPT on the Domonique Foxworth show one more time... I don’t care what AI thinks about the Ravens trade; if I did, I wouldn’t be listening to the show

I might actually become a real Ravens fan (like the Eagles, I pay a lot of attention to them because the Raiders are actually ass)... if Spytek and Klubnik do something with these picks, I'll be excited, but jeez am I tired of the NFL

If I had a nickel for every time I was considering giving money to a podcast and then they talked abot using AI, usually for a goof, I'd have five or six nickels, which isn't a lot, but more than you usually get from this joke

Tech bro oligarch: The AI is... real... sentient.... it's feeling real feelings... we must do everything we can to protect it and give it rights
Also tech bro oligarch: Human females are basically cattle made to push out as many babies as possible, all of which I will neglect

The most annoying thing and it pisses me off so much is when I’m talking about something and self proclaimed socialists and communists are like I’ve given up I actually don’t think this will happen

why would i care about your opinion on tactics if you think a socialist future is impossible

Americans have to have more humility than act like seeing other people suffering is the same thing as suffering.

NBC's top climate reporter quits In an exclusive interview, veteran NBC meteorologist Chase Cain opens up about burnout, suppression, and why he's going independent.

One reason climate reporters are pushed out of the newsroom: their editors refuse to allow them to tell the truth about the problem.

Case in point: only 8 percent of all corporate broadcast climate segments in 2025 mentioned fossil fuels, the main driver of climate change.

Philadelphia’s government conflicted on addressing affordability crisis PHILADELPHIA—By many metrics, Philadelphia is more affordable than some other big cities. Unfortunately, that doesn’t help the plurality of the city’s people, rent- or mortgage-burdened, get a leg up.

Drew together some existing reporting on the affordability debate ongoing here in Philadelphia

How Brothel Workers in Nevada Just Made Labor History The courtesans at Sheri’s Ranch were staring down a horrifying new contract. So they did what workers everywhere do: They got organized.

When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought back—fast.

They organized a union in SIX DAYS. www.thenation.com/article/econ...

i was talking to my mom about cardassians and said something along the lines of what must it be like to be a cardassian civilian. like abstractly knowing the rest of the galaxy thinks of your species as 'the evil ones' and kinda sorta knowing your government runs labor camps and torture prisons and is a military empire, and it's a huge deal for everyone else in the galaxy, but you just like run a restaurant so it's not a big part of your daily life, so you just like, go about your day and make soup and don't think about it' and then halfway through my sentence i actually heard myself and then had to go sit down for like ten minutes. like sat down in a chair and stared at the floor for ten minutes

On top of all the reporting that this war of aggression was planned well in advance, it seems that the reporting also indicates that the US political leadership are quite literally too stupid to understand basic diplomacy. I mean literally not smart enough.
