I heard a lot of complaints about the twins in borderlands 3.They're shallow, they're obnoxious, they remind you of wanna be tiktok influencers, on and on.

That's not a bug, that's a feature. Guys, Handsome Jack was bottled lightning. He was a masterpiece of good writing, good design, well placed improv, and just plain dumb luck. They were never going to pull that off again. You'd need to open a real vault to find that level of treasure.

The Calypso's are exactly what they say on the tin. They're all those obnoxious, unfunny things I mentioned because sometimes villains aren't well thought out, complex characters. I fucking love shooting Troy in his smug hot topic weeb face. I don't need to consider the complexity of a man driven to an extreme or the show erosion of one's moral character in pursuit of power, they were two shitty kids on an ego trip with no regard for the damage they did. It is plain, and simple, and easy.

Are there problems with the rest if the story? Absolutely. Are there some awful plot-holes? Oh my fuck, yes. But are the Calypsos the thing that ruined the game? Fuck no, they're fine and perfectly shootable as a bad-guy needs to be.

I'd really like to see this in reference to population size and state size.

I also use public school maps, zoos, and amusement parks

OK, but did you pay $600 to have that cabinet in your house and still pumo endless quarters into it?

Split the difference, spend as much of your time on the clock job hunting and doing the bare minimum. Then quit without notice mid shift for the new job.

Damn, I didn't know America was contagious...

The other day I started a she called Where the Water Tastes Like Wine. You lose a hand of cards to a Wolfman and he turns you into a hobo skeleton tasked with traveling the US to spread folktales. The wolf is voiced by Sting, the whole game pays homage to an idealized peak of Americana, and I've never had to decide what button to map "hitchhike" to before.

Creativity is alive and well, flourishing even. This guy is just blaming others for the problems he brings to the table.

The ball was pale, not any color specific, something life a cream color. The person was nongendered, just a hand extending from a black suit with no determining orientation. They were a suit below the shoulder to above the knee, no other visible details past the table. The ball is maybe baseball sized, just big enough to comfortably fit the hand. The table is my current dining room table, an antique drop leaf table. This detail was the oddest to reconsider because until now I've been imagining either my previous table or the coffee table from my childhood, I don't normally decorate the thought space.

Hands down I'd respect Bush if I saw him kick the shit out of a nazi

Strong broth.

Veggies, meats, marrow, spices, herbs, all boiled until the best things are in the water. If it's not fortifying, I don't know what is.

I think art is as much in the eye of the viewer as it is the maker. You'll never convince me that Jackson Pollock was an artist, I simply don't see the art in his work, but you may have a life changing emotional experience viewing it. My opinion doesn't devalue your experience any more than your experience devalues mine.

 

Hey has anyone considered making a wine from peppers like jalapeno and sweet pepper?

You'd probably need to add extra sugar, but I bet it could be an interesting flavor.

 

You can see a cluster of them to the bottom left and individuals spread around. We have them on raised beds near a maple tree in the yard because we were worried about the Kansas heat drying them faster then we could water. They get watered daily, they're not injured or weird looking, but they just aren't growing at all. What do we do?

Not pictured here is a Rosemary patch that's doing exactly the same, tiny little two leaf sprouts that refuse to grow further or die off.

 

Hey gang, I'm trying to find a mod or resource pack that well make the overworld and nether generate the same islands in the void that the end does.

I've seen sky-lands but I can't get it to work, it says it's too old for 1.21 and too new for 1.20.6. Does anyone have suggestions on how I can do this?

 

So we have a few of these things and I honestly fell like they're critically under utilized for what they are. You can see the mini figure display space, the stand and folding wings come out leaving a sizable storage area, and the lid also opens to enough storage for all the parts in each set. The top of the lid is an ordinary 8x8 flat round corner.

Obviously, these would be great travel cases for Lego D&D Minifigs, with your fig, main equipment, and what not with the back space used for other equipment or cosmetics. That said, I really want to find a game that uses the building aspect of Lego and can be stored in these containers.

The best I've come up with would be some variation of Goh that uses smooth tiles? Maybe some sort of chess game? Any ideas would be appreciated, I've been wracking my brain on this for weeks

 
 

So our neighbors have been a growing problem for a few months now. They seem to be a flop house for six or seven people, most of them look high all day. They go out and Rev a Harley at 3am, they burn plastic been our houses in a fire pit, they have a new dog every two weeks because they keep getting out and getting hit by traffic in the busy street we live on, the current two have bit people. I'm not one to care how someone lives, but these folks make the rest of our slum neighborhood look downright utopian.

I've tried taking to them, they're stupidly hostile. I've put in complaints with the city, noise complaints with the police, they don't do anything about it. Does anyone have advice on dealing with this? I'm tired, at my wits end, and my small town tactics aren't as easy to pull off in a proper city.
