We were hoping for karma but instead we get shawarma

Great article! It presents dimensions to the issue that I had never considered before. I hope other states take notice. I ought to reach out to my representative and senator.

“Uplift” means to raise the level of; improve; cause one to feel optimism

Here a dangerous street has been improved by converting it into a neighborhood greenway. It is a well-known fact that there are already a lot of dangerous streets in the world, but I feel optimistic that more and more cities are rethinking the way they build their thoroughfares and are shifting to safer, more human-focused designs.

Looks like something I would do

tbf I think cows, chickens, pigs, and fish are cute too

Rock gnomes have been the archetypical race for artificer-themed characters since long before artificers were added to the game. You get bonuses to Intelligence and Constitution, which are both good for an artificer who’s wearing armor on the front line. You also get extra utility out of tinker’s tools, and you double your proficiency bonus for Intelligence (History) checks related to any magical item, alchemical object, or technological device. Plus, Gnome Cunning is a solid defensive feature for any role.

Ah, thanks. I had to look it up. I think my folks just call them hand towels

I still don’t get it…

The more you eat, the more you toot. 🎺

Same way they always have. You pay a subscription fee and you get the magazine delivered to your door. You might also find it at booksellers that carry a wider selection of magazines. Lots of people still enjoy printed media. Of course, you can also access a lot of the content on SI.com.

Oh hey this works on Boost too and I had never heard of the feature until now. Thanks, kind stranger!

Yes, she’s been very upfront about it. She makes it clear at her fundraising events that the proceeds are going to charitable organizations. Her campaign has been soliciting canned goods and menstrual hygiene products, instead of cash, in exchange for yard signs and stickers.

I get your cynicism, it’s a well-known adage that anyone who seeks power doesn’t deserve it. But for as long as we have elected federal representatives, I’d prefer to elect representatives who actually make tangible efforts to take care of people. Even if you see it as self-serving, to me it’s refreshing to see a candidate appeal to voters’ compassion instead of appealing to their fears and prejudices.

I was too, but then again it says she’s the first to be on the COVER of the swimsuit issue. So out of a few dozen models in the swimsuit issue any given year, only a very select few of them are going to be a front cover model, and the same highly recognizable models are often on the cover multiple years. I notice a lot of the big name models are married to male soccer/football stars, musicians, etc… so it’s actually not that shocking to me that it would take this long for an openly lesbian model to be on the cover.

Congrats to Lauren Chan, seems like she worked very hard for this and she’s doing what she can to be a voice for inclusivity and positivity. The photos look great.

The annual swimsuit issue is neither of the above. It’s just non-explicit, non-pornographic swimsuit modeling. It’s a special issue that they do every year, separate from the monthly magazine that’s actually about sports.

You had me at fried okra 😋 but lost me at ranch 😣

What a delightful read! I appreciated the quick FAQ about domesticated skunks at the end.

We named her Chaplin 😸 Seemed nicer than calling her Kitler!

He empowered people to recycle 625,000 of their own batteries. This wasn’t waste cleanup, it was waste prevention. His nonprofit organization provided battery recycling bins and signs in visible, convenient locations. People otherwise may not have known where, how, or even why they should recycle their batteries.

It’s Mr. Mertle’s impossibly strong mastiff, Hercules. But the goblins only know it as “The Beast.”
