Hedging his bets so he doesn't go down with Trump's ship

So Larian is calling attention to predatory employment practices, as they have done before, and this time they're doing it by comparing the situation to predatory sales practices, and criticizing them in the comparison

I was recently in college for IT, and my professors said a couple of times that it's best practice just to assume that all of your info has already been stolen

...the difference was determined to be insignificant...

These findings suggest that being elected the President of the United States may be a viable strategy for mitigating cognitive decline among older adults.

That feels like a bit of a jump

Shut up, Wesley

You have a big paper due on Monday? Don't smoke until it's done, because you won't get more creative, you'll just not do it.

I actually love writing while high. Everything flows so much more easily for me, and I make connections I might not otherwise. It's great when I'm having trouble just getting words on the page. It does usually require an extra passover in editing though lol

And the telepathic pitcher plant!

Yeah, that's true. Could be that only senior officers can program recipes, or maybe the Cerritos has special rules. They were under heightened security after the Pakled attacks, and also, considering the Buffer Time episode, Captain Freeman is definitely the kind of captain that would make rules about that. And the Cerritos seems like the kind of crew that would need them lol

They can probably upload all their own recipes from a Padd anywhere they go

This isn't how replicators work at all. We know they have tons of different versions of individual recipes, and that you can program your own recipe if you want something custom. The way the shows discuss replicated food, it seems like it just straight up doesn't taste as good, but probably only very slightly, to the point you can't really tell the difference if you've mostly eaten replicated food your whole life

There could be hundreds of versions of each individual dish.

Not just could be. We know there are. In the first episode or two episode of Voyager, Tom tries to order tomato soup from the replicator, and it asks him a ton of questions because there are like a hundred different versions of tomato soup, including Bolian style, meaning not only are recipes kept modern, they even include alien takes on other species' meals! I wonder if Klingon replicators can make Rhaktajino DS9 style

A lot of memes I across the Internet are about how everyone, no matter how old, is just a kid inside, trying to figure out what's going on, which is something I definitely identify with.

But every once in a while, something happens that does actually make me feel like a grown-up. It's usually small, and kind of silly, but it's fun, and I thought people might want to share theirs.

For me, most recently, it was realizing I like Greek yogurt now. It was trendy when I was like 12, and I couldn't stand it then, but I bought some on a whim, and now I keep the fridge stocked. That drastic change in my tastes took me aback momentarily, but I thought it was a nice fun little milestone.

How about you?

Unfortunately, you can't get real Orion Dulac in Michigan, so this is my take on what Mariner would have served Those Old Scientists

  • 1.5oz White rum (I used Plantation 3 Star)
  • .75oz Cinnamon syrup
  • .75oz Lime juice
  • .5oz Absinthe (I used what they make at my local distillery, American Fifth)
  • .5oz John D. Taylor Velvet Falernum Liqueur
  • 1 barspoon Blue curaçao (for colour)

Shake, and double strain. Garnish with a cinnamon stick, and slowly pour in two barspoon of grenadine so that it sinks to the bottom. This could also be swapped for butterfly pea flower syrup, which is purple. I just wanted the grenadine flavor

This is for an upcoming session this Saturday. I've never been the kind of person that's into drawing, but I'm GMing my own PTU campaign, and I hated making maps online lol

I've been practicing for about a week now, and I'm pretty happy with this little map.

The setting is a small cave, complete with giant mushrooms, crystals, and a pond, which served as the improvised "break room," for a couple of miners my players found the skeletons of at the end of the last session.
