We’re a DnD family. Been playing the same campaign for a few years and turned it digital. Works like a charm and it’s fun as hell. Tons of free tools for chat, maps, and character sheets!

The way the app was made it look like “THERE! SUGARING!” and I laughed at how that sums up every conversation about sugaring ever.

Don't compare her to someone who killed children. You have no idea what it was like to be in her mind and I hope you never go through whatever pain she was in. I am praying for her and her family. The higher power and light is more powerful than any pain on this earth. I pray Young woman that you are safe and in the divine light where you belong. I lost a family member in a similar way and the thing to do right now is pray for them. Not speaking I'll and causing more pain for their family. She is forgiven. She is no longer suffering. God is love.
So say we all.

You know what I believe I looked at a bunch of Traceys but actually ended up getting this one now that I look back at my emails: https://crokinole.guru/product/crokinole-tournament-premium-gold-set/
They just had a colorway I liked better and the carrying case which was really helpful when we moved.

I may do the same. I think the best deal I can find is through BrownCastle games bundle with a case and some 20s holders, and then I’d probably get discs from workshopsupply or something. How’d you get yours?

I make it my mission to make the most complex tile movements. No move is worth making unless it involves 17 tile moves, 3 broken runs, distributing a 3 of a kind and playing just one tile from your hand.

Trolled through the comments wondering if I’d see Crokinole. I want a board. Do you have a Tracey, or other? The Tracey’s are the gold standard, but $$$.

I worked in a warehouse for four years lol. That's why I specifically used that example, is because I actually know about it. What do you mean by "biased"? There's a lot of fucking off that happens that would definitely be reduced. Just general standing around and chatting, or not doing the best thing at that moment, trying to sneak off and mess around for a while, etc.
Maybe you've never worked in one, but there's a lot of shenanigans that goes on.
That said, it was awful and the company treated us like dog food, so it's possible in a company that has more respect for its workers, this would be less of the case. I'd also expect mistakes (ie, tipping over pallets and other very time consuming stuff) to happen much less frequently if employees could actually recharge between work weeks. At the end of my stint there, I was one of the most senior guys, and I'd only been there three years. Turnover was very high.

I think there won't be anyone local to cut hair because you have to cut a lot of hair to come up with half a million dollars in cash for a house.

They should have been assisted with the refugee application process and then returned to Canadaian authorities while the application was processed. Not like they face persecution in Quebec.

I think desert is the best so far, but I am excited to see how jungle works out.
