I'm gonna give Stamos the benefit of the doubt as say maybe he needs the hair for work. No seriously. He's an actor, their appearance and image are work relevant.

And that's why I'll never leave the Great Lakes region.

That's what happens when people value charisma over intelligence. Not that it's a modern defect, we're just hardwired to live like we're still in a tribe but one led by liars.

He's left behind even the pretense of having people who know things in office. Now it's just bootlickers who have been on TV, and the occasional particularly toadycore politician.

Condemn away, genocidal assholes.

A joke manned after a meme that became a "currency" name that Elon is too stupid to realized died years ago. The meme, not the stupid crypto, I think that's still around.

Because "back in my day" isn't just Grandpa rambling. It's also adults who resent their upbringing but are stupid enough to pass it on. First to their kids, and now to wage earners.

Also people can be tricked by propaganda and lies pretty easily.

Now we can legally recognize "Christian" churches as the terrorist organizations they are.

May the local governments fuck with you endlessly you cancerous parasite.

Leave out food every day. Don't look it in the eyes directly. Move slowly and quietly. Give it space. Eventually it'll associate you with free food and MIGHT become friendlier.

Your cat's name also translates to "small wet dirt girl" if you combine the English "mud" with the naming suffix "-ita" which is appended to indicate a female gendered name.

Their corporate paymasters in the arms industry say no.

What it says in the title.

Illinois

With few exceptions, Chicago and it's county, (Cook) and the surrounding (collar) counties are Illinois, as far as most of us are concerned (especially including good food, presidential elections and tax income).

We're objectively better than NY.

Chicago holds the importance, due to being the main freight hub in the country, that once upon a time belonged to New Orleans. However the advent of railroad stripped that title away from New Orleans, relegating it and thus Louisiana to shadows of their former selves.

 

Serious question. I only have the one car. I know there are people with more money than sense that have more cars than they can actually drive at a time, and that there are couples who may or may not be able to drive their SO to the mechanic. But how can they _assumef that I can even afford a cab, well Uber these days, when I'm about to have them hundreds of dollars getting my busted-ass, POS car fixed?

SCP + drawing + goofballs = comedy gold. This is their 4th one.

 

I've been seeing a lot of posts for communities in languages I don't know (German being the most common). Well I'm sure these are perfectly fine communities and have no problem with them being around, I don't speak the languages - just English - and having to play whack-a-mole for every single new one that pops up is getting pretty tedious. Is there a way to filter all that out in one fell swoop?

 

So I've figured out, thanks to the Vertical Slabs mod, how to finally interpret grid-based dungeon layouts into Minecraft pretty faithfully. I decided to therefore build an interpretation of this monster, The World's Largest Dungeon by AEG.

I've thusfar completed 3 out of 16 sections and thought I might stream progress. I'm not a streamer but it's a lot of work to build this monster, and thought somebody might find it interesting. I've also already built some maps and templates from some dungeon crawl board games, and want to make more stuff later. What can I say, I like dungeon maps.

My plan is to finish, then go through and tidy up anything I may have missed, fix and standardize a few things, fill out some of the rooms, and then upload the thing for people to download for free use. The pieces are fairly easy to copy out and modify. I'm predominately (for floors and walls) using the same few piece types and the only mod required is Extended Slabs + which does require Forge. Without that mod the entire thing breaks.

As an aside, part of why I'm doing this is to stick it to Mojang. The official reason they say they won't include vertical slabs is that they will "inhibit natural creativity" That is complete and utter BS. A close look at this map's tight corners, any uneven surfaces, statues, block-built furniture, are ample proof, not to mention that in all the years since beta that I've tried to adapt grid maps accurately, the lack of thin wall pieces has made it impossible.

It's also been suggested that similar games (which are mostly if not entirely all defunct now) already have them and they'd make Minecraft not unique blah blah blah). As for "official" vertical slabs, there is one on the marketplace for 660 coins. NOPE, not paying for it. So here's my polite response to Mojang's terrible, terrible excuse. More variety is always more good.
