The Hungry Wolf

*boop!*

All very true. Orgs that have the purchasing set up already will do far more good with cash.

Similarly, orgs like Meals on Wheels often need volunteers to deliver the food they *do* have.

Speaking from experience- I run MoW for my city all by myself. See what's near you, and if they need help.

That is an extremely Grease Trucks and/or Guy Fieri thing and I love it to bits

Fortunately, it's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake.

I see peasants with money.
No elites there.

It would be nice if they remembered to prioritize locals alongside internationals and vendors.
We do the homefield logistics side better than anyone flying in.

I'm right there with you. Mom taught Brit Lit for basically her whole career.

That is a thoroughly delightful way to describe such usage.

Seconded on all of that.
(I run my city’s meals on wheels operation, so I deal with many a food pantry.)

It shouldn’t be so strange to have someone tell me “I want you to have all the happiness you deserve” and believe they really mean it.

Those may well be the most You purchases I’ve ever seen

Every “mandatory” update to an already-purchased product should result in a 2% refund of the purchase price.

Bothersome that attending a relatively local event might be impossible.

Oh for sure- I’d originally meant it in reference to his model/design.
Your ‘hard sort with kind eyes and tattered soul’ expertise works real wonders with some characters though, and he’s no exception.

Trivia of the week- Providence RI has demographics that basically match the U.S. as a whole, so it’s regularly used as a scale model test market location.

That came up when I got a sneak peak in the Guittard factory some years ago!
Also-
“The mint room’s leaking”

Start the dough. It’ll take a couple days. You’ll probably want it less by then.

Lot of Bautista slipping in there too, it seems

Cleaning is an absolute necessity, but one that all people must work to minimize the need for.

Sit down to pee.

The pre-coffee carton curse got you again, huh?

At first I saw “the Tennant brand of…” and wondered how you missed all the whovian slashfic.

But not for pizza!

A million Final Fantasy fans cry out for The Best Version of the Four Fiends theme in unison and summon the Final Boss Primal version of Hyadain, it’s enough to bring a tear to my eye thinking about what it means to stand at the crossroads of art and fandom and legacy like this

“Creosote and apples” sounds like something on a Duergar dessert table

Everyone between the ages of about 25 and 55 will die having never collected on the vast debts we are owed.
Our lives are defined by those who came before being derelict in their duties and dismissive of their obligations to us.

*sighs in retired ddr pro*

“You’d take friendship over divinity?”
“I can make it to godhood on my own. Friends don’t come nearly so easily.”

Speed bumps are Wrong.
Crush them flat.
Grind them smooth.
Don’t treat the symptom.
Solve the problem.

I sat down and did the math once.
Not a lot of major wins, but a couple hundred tournaments and a huge pile of money matches did add up piecemeal.
Didn't break even, not by a longshot- but it was waaaaay closer than anybody else I knew about.

Wealth isn’t obliged a voice.
Education, expertise, experience, ethics, and empathy are.
