  • I’d love to see them run some more niche RPGs like Lancer or Mutant Year Zero. I know Erika talked about running Honey Heist on the world’s beyond number podcast, so I’m hoping this changes more over time.

    Not sure if you got me mixed up with someone else or if you are referencing a post I made about a month ago on a trans community about my wife. She is doing better, but still not able to drive on the highway yet.

    All calm on the sibling front. My oldest brother is considering proposing to his girlfriend sometime this winter.



  • Yeah you just describe what you want and they will tend to do it. I just get away with walk-ins at JCPenney salons, but if you get particular about your style you can find a stylist or barber that can learn how you like your hair.

    My hair was about 3ft long at the beginning of last year. I’d normally go for a haircut every two to four months and ask for them to take two inches off and add layering.

    Last summer it was getting too hot gardening with how thick my hair gets, so I asked for the back of my head to get shaved as an undercut about at my glasses line. Hair looked the same when worn down, but I could put it up to cool things down. I had to go in every month or two though to keep it short enough to keep me cool, so every other haircut I asked for two inches off and layering.

    I let the undercut grow out from October to June, and had maybe 6 inches of hair? With no layering it looked a bit flat when I wore my hair down.

    This summer I decided to get a Mohawk for better ventilation. Asked for the sides to be buzzed leaving about a 4 inch wide strip running from scalp to back of neck, for 6 inches off the longest part of the hair that was not originally part of the undercut, and layering to be added to both the longest portion and what was the undercut.

    I typically wear my hair to the side, so it looks like I just have a little undercut and can pull my hair back when gardening to cool off. It would probably look silly if I put up my hair with gel, but after 6inches of hair it really is a pain to put that up. Also I have a kid, so there is no time for extensive styling.

    Over winter I’ll probably aim for every two to four months for haircuts since I don’t need the sides so short. Goal is probably 6 inches off the longest part until it levels out, and then just decide how long I want it in that style.


  • This series was a chance for them to experiment with the format, but they made it very clear that this was largely in the hands of the players. It was also transparently experimental, which they probably had to portray because they saw how much the players were both impacted.

    There is the context that the challenge the week prior to the flea market ,Grant had opted to challenge Ally to be drunk for the full week. Ally would have been thinking about the next weeks challenge of the flea market when they would have been in a compromised state. I think that Ally took this a bridge too far, and when that was clear talked with people they trusted and took a step back.

    That said I don’t think Grant was focused on just trying to make good TV, and was getting frustrated when Ally had actually gone through with challenges that he thought they would opted out of. Grant also had the only challenge that resulted in a permanent body modification through the form of a tattoo of Ally’s girlfriend’s name, and had Ally read their childhood diaries as an event at a book store.




  • I think it is a solid game. Sunk about 30 hours into it a few months ago, but life got busy and I what free time I’ve had I sunk into Pokemon infinite fusion.

    If you want the gist of what it is like to play without sinking in the money “Real Civil Engineer” on YouTube has a Timberborn playlist with hours of content with him just fucking around. Unless you find your own way to build a narrative or make your own challenges you may find that you have done it all by around 60 to 80 hours of gameplay.
