Somehow I really liked the pacing. I also can’t cook to save my life, so for some reason the cooking drama was fascinating.

No! Do not start with Empress Ki! Or if you do, pretend it stops when everyone is happily on the road back to Korea. Trust me on this. YOU DO NOT WANT TO GO FARTHER.

I will forever love Jewel in the Palace, that’s probably a better sageuk entry point.

Me too, can we get a Ruby update?

They have a miniature pink version in the frozen section of Ikea.

I feel like I phrased this badly. tldr, can we have compassion on both sides?

It is simply difficult to add nuance to a tweet. Antisemitism is a real and important problem- this is the age of Trump, after all. However, as real and as serious as this is, Israel also has a problem with its treatment of Palestinians.

Literally every time I see BCRA in print, I mentally transpose it to BRCA. So thanks Republicans, I’m glad I get daily reminders of the cancer-causing gene variant I have. Yay.

I’m so sorry. My dad managed to survive for a year and a half, but I almost wish it hadn’t taken that long. It’s an awful way to go.

That credulous NPR interview was amazeballs. Surely they’ll mention this as well, right?

You’d think that, but I’m still training people to use Ms. rather than Mrs. I’m hoping *fingers crossed* when I pass defense I can just beat them into submission with Dr.

My professional bubble, however, is mostly composed of older white men, so that’s a thing. For two years in a row, my review was primarily on…

I’m mystic, but we have instinct bogarts around here. For example, at lunch I went and took down a gym. There was literally one other person out in the rain with me taking this down, and he got his pokemon in first. Before I could get mine in, the gym was under attack, and it turned yellow again. With no one else…

I’ve been grinding on this game for a while in a relatively rural area, but after the raid update? I’m pretty close to dropping this. I can’t seem to generate coins at all, and I can’t be the only one. I have enough high power pokemon I could take down a pretty stacked gym and guarantee 10 coins for a day, but the…

I asked Mr. Electronswhee for clarification, but he just groaned at this thread and left muttering about people being wrong on the internet. Again, my style is Japanese weapons, so I am merely parroting what I understand from him, but I think a mace is a flanged weapon like Sauron’s club. A flail is the chained…

Oh gods, this thread is still going... that’ll learn me to make a bad joke on a Friday...

That was kinda the joke...the mace is rather hard to get to anyways...

Still, Mr. ElectronsWheee is rather fond of it. Works well against swords.

The mace is also very hard to get to. There’s a javelin and a sword I’d probably grab first ;)

So I do a Japanese martial art that involves weapons, and my spouse does historical European martial arts. Between the pair of us we have at least one weapon in every room in the house. The joke has been that if anyone ever breaks in, they’d probably be more terrified of us and leave.

(I should point out that I…

*hugs* I am so sorry, and fuck these entitled assholes.

If this makes Fox and Friends, he will

WHIO changed the headline already, but yeah. It’s...questionable.
