I do it every time because she has some of the best dialogue in the game. She is legitimately funny. Also, soul brand is an incredible bonus action.

Knock her out in the goblin camp. She will be alive in Moonrise in act 2. Ensure she is spared by Ketheric and the orc lady. In the dungeons, take over torturing her from the evil gnome ladies and turn on them with Minthara. Then, lead her out to safety and recruit her. Best decision you can make. Save before the dungeon part because it bugs out half the time.

Bitcoin Milhouse killed me. Thank you for the laugh.

It's also objectively better than the American/international counterpart, having had both. Canadian A&Ws actually felt like they were trying to provide a great product, trusting profit would follow.

Developing standards, best practices, conventions, etc. One of the most valuable people on my team wrote some incredible quality automations a few years ago, and the only coding he does at this point is updates to them when necessary. By volume, he's easily bottom 5% this year, but we'd be much worse off without his expertise/advise and the fact he advocates for the team.

This is classic shit management metrics. It would take some time for the rot to set in after using a cudgel approach to a team, and by the time it did, the assholes responsible would have fucked off elsewhere with their huge bonuses.

It is perhaps the best state house. The gold dome with trees in the background is exquisite year-round.

Having been there many times, I was going to disagree. But looking at Google maps of it now, I can't find more than 2 places a stop makes sense. What a silly state capital.

That may be true in many cases, but some people have more sensitive gums, so it depends how skilled the hygienist is. When I last switched dentists, it was the first time I'd never bled during a visit. Prior dentists told me my oral health was good, but my gums were just very sensitive.

It's a combination of factors. Having debt itself isn't as important as payment history, age of accounts, etc. Credit card debt is probably the opposite of helpful; paying off a card every month in full for a long time is much more useful.

Always worth posting this classic.

Yeah. The Republicans ran a ton of anti-trans hysteria ads at all levels, including Trump. The Democrats didn't significantly address the issue, so the belief is everyone just believed the nonsense from the anti-trans ads.

I am skeptical of this theory until there's good data to back it up (not holding my breath). I doubt it convinced anyone who wasn't already transphobic; it may have helped turning out transphobes.

Considering how many Americans have crippling credit card debt, especially poor people, would that be worse? I'm sure they'd still offer those credit builder cards with low limits that you have to deposit collateral for the limit.

The merchant is charged the fee, not you directly as the cardholder. It's already figured into the price if they accept cards.
