At least for my table, fun is the only goal. Some people do have fun being rules lawyers…though not at my table!

I fudge die rolls all the time. Both ways. Satan is more than welcome at my table.

I think it’s less about the gas getting into your drink and more that if the gas is pushing the water away then the water has less of a chance to strip away the oils that you do want in your drink. I’m definitely not expert I just love coffee haha

Scientifically for pour over you want to make the ground beans wet, let them sit wet for 30 seconds or a minute, and then pour the rest of your water over. This initial wet step is to make sure the coffee grounds have time to start off gassing. You want their good flavors in your coffee not that initial gas. So you get them wet, wait for them to offgas, then do the rest of the water. It’s cool if you actually watch too just a little bit of water turns the top of your beans all shiny and bubbly…you can literally see them offgassing. I find it fascinating

Can you imagine these well equipped and well trained Alpha Males using that equipment and training to absolutely murder a bunch of humans that were pressed into service against their will? Just absolutely slaughter them. They won’t stand a chance. The soil is going to run red with the blood of human beings.

Oh yeah I can and I have never been so .

Why yes how did you know I am an American Democratic party donor?

Polyamory is slut praxis

What ever happened to trade wars being easy to win?

I think we’re only a few short years away from Americans advocating specifically in favor of causing MORE climate change in an attempt to punish China for working to slow climate change down

Actually the Chinese government ending the lockdown after all of these large demonstrations were purely coincidence. See in my democracy I protest and my government does literally nothing to address why I protested. That’s how you know democracy is working, when the government hears my concerns and completely ignores them. Unlike that authoritarian sissypee where the people protested and the government listened to them and changed course based on their demands. Listening to your people and making policy based on their concerns is authoritarian. Ignoring your people and making policy based on corporate donors is democracy.

Liberals be like: Yeah I love democracy.

The thing I love most about democracy is that I get zero choice or control over who represents me in government at all and I let them make decisions for me that hurt me. In fact I celebrate it when they make decisions that hurt me

Hey I know what we should do. We should keep poking the bear! That’ll solve it!

The marketplace of ideas is only okay if they’re ideas I agree with!

I mean sure, but that’s not what carbon offsets are doing

It’s not possible for anyone to offset CO2 because that’s just not how CO2 works. If its going into the air it doesn’t matter how much money moves around in the background, it’s still going into the air. Carbon offsets were never going to accomplish anything because physics don’t work that way

Well not that secretly apparently

What is a tankie? Can you clearly and succinctly define it?

Anytime I hear “nobody wants to work” I just add “for YOU.” Lots of folks want to work they just want to be compensated for it and not be worked to death

They won’t. They should. They must. But they won’t.

I know it’s wonderful isn’t it?

Smart as Lenin was he didn’t know you never go for a cats belly when they’re asking you to. It’s always a trap. They wanna smack you
