I keep having ideas for board/card games I'd like to try to make. Too busy a place in life to really try, but I have a set of blank playing cards I've been slowly making into a prototype. LGS has a game designer night, too, if I ever get it into a playable state...

Hang on. The palace has its own refinery? Isn't that something like the White House having a petrol plant along one of its wings?

Don’t stop after beating the swords
into plowshares, don’t stop! Go on beating
and make musical instruments out of them.

will have to turn them into plowshares first.

Yes because current business leaders have really shown us it won't be a negative transformation. 🙄

Jealous! Be careful though. I remember hearing some of the official STLs have resin traps

I'm skeptically hopeful. At this point, they should do a Firefly:TNG thing where we see a new crew in the same setting. Its been long enough that any sequel with the originals won't measure up to whatever fans have built up in their heads. Would love me some more of that original sound track, tho.

I don't know how Lincoln got rated over Omaha, or how any Nebraska city got on the map at all lmao. Morale isn't exactly high here.

Oh lol I should have looked longer, my bad. I had seen the shields and immediately started trying to think of scenarios one would use them with just a sling.

Huh, I didn't imagine slingers would be in a position to need a shield

Isn't it like every other year we get some sort of thing about it coming back? This'll blow over.

Right because CBS news is definitely not running cover for the current administration. Definitely can trust them right now.

Yeeeeah I think a lot of the backlash is people directing their (understandable and justifiable) outrage at the wrong people in this situation because they don't know otherwise. It was a warship. This is a war. Even if we're trying to get our own government to see it as illegal/immoral.

Six members of the US Armed Services are coming home today in a dignified transfer. As far as I'm concerned, these situations have always been off limits to politics. Families deserve respect, those lost in service of their country deserve to be honored. My thoughts are with the grieving.

Yeeeeah I agree with all of this but also can't get over Marathon's plagiarism... I know the official story and all, but it still just doesn't pass the smell test...

If it makes you feel better, my internship supe has had me debugging scripts from ChatGPT for him while I'm simultaneously still trying to learn python over all. Scripts I definitely should be learning to write in the first place.

Do you have to repeatedly take cover if you don't move from the original piece of cover or only declare it once during the first turn and then are considered "in cover" until you move again?
