Got knowledge of tools - definitely one worth investing in.- Food Thread - What are you eating?
Weird, I use mustard (with a hint of horseradish in it, no less) and find I can still taste whatever else is on the sandwich. I only use mayo on BLTs...- Vinyl changer
The tall pole is the stacking spindle. The record player you describe sounds like the one we had with the extra piece for the 45 with a large hole.- The All Things Political Topic - All people love themselves too much to be changed by something as simple as love.
Georgia didn't have a hate crime statute on the books when the men were charged. They were, IIRC, charged in May and the Hate Crime law was signed in June 21. Difference between Malice Murder and Felony Murder is explained by a local station: https://www.11alive.com/article/news/crime/ahmaud-arbery/malice-murder-felony-murder-difference-ahmaud-arbery-death-trial/85-d13db692-cff9-4b4d-be73-5eba5ae22054- What are you Playing Now?

AHHHH, that would explain it, I did talk with Huang Long (I'd actually talked to him before, but wiped right after that and just realized last night that I'd never went back and talked to him). I haven't left the first area - I didn't play any Sunday or Monday and you were already ahead of me then. I'll check and see if I have that miracle yet or not, if not I'll keep an eye out for it. I think I have more than one Gospel though, but I'm hanging on to them as well.- Vinyl changer
Jukeboxes are made, but are expensive ($11,000 or more) so I think you're looking for a record player with a stacking spindle. Unless I'm corrected, I think the last stackable model released in the US was Crossley's Stack-O-Matic range, discontinued in 2010. Dunno, international record players. I've heard some of the 2000s era players with a stacking spindle would have a drop in speed while the new record was dropped and started playing; I think vintage versions didn't have that problem ( at least I don't remember the early 60s record player my mom had having any performance issues when dropping a record and starting playing it but this may also depend on make/model). A stacking spindle would usually allow you to put in 5-7 discs, typically to start, and you could add records as they dropped and finished so could get through a few records before needing to change the whole stack. Obviously, could only play one side at a time. Apparently people felt like they could damage the record (despite the fact that records since the 50s were manufactured with a raised label area and edges that would prevent the record resting on the groove part of the record below) so they fell out of favor. So unless there's an international record player still using a stacking spindle, you'd have to be looking for an older model.- What are you Playing Now? Games = Life
After my whack&walk, I had plenty of money for minman locations, plus some compendium fusions. Seems like I've leveled up enough to change some of the monsters I find as well, as I'm finding Mitama on the map (yellow and red) and ran into a Genbu that I don't recall being there before.- The All Things Political Topic - All people love themselves too much to be changed by something as simple as love.

I think UK's recognition is a step towards requiring ethical slaughter for food animals before cooking or preparing for consumption. So it'd eliminate tossing a lobster in the pot while still aware.- The All Things Political Topic - All people love themselves too much to be changed by something as simple as love.
Bryan has been charged, and is on trial with the McMichaels. He tried to get a plea deal but it was rejected. Most people I know have little sympathy for the 'citizen's arrest' defense since they apparently never declared they were making a citizen's arrest when they tried to stop Aubrey nor did they actually witness a crime to which declaring a citizen's request would make sense. That the elder McMichael was an ex-police officer who'd worked for the district attorney, there's a general feeling that (a) he should have known better than to chase after him in a half-assed vigilante manner and the (b) the old boy system tried to protect him and his son by squashing the initial investigation. But not being on the jury and hearing the evidence an arguments, its hard to say what actually will happen.- Food Thread - What are you eating?
Had an early Thanksgiving dinner with my oldest brother and his wife. A great amount of food was had (roasted chicken, gravy, mashed potatoes, rolls, dressing, baked slices of potato, sweet potato, butternut squash, acorn squash, cauliflower, broccolli, carrots, corn-on-the-cob, and finally dressing). Dessert was pavlova, which I'd never had before and was quite good.- What are you Playing Now? Games = Life
I sometimes have demon compendium OCD. 😱 Didn't get to play much yesterday, due to social obligations, so still haven't finished my wander.- nfl 2021-2022
Tell us what you really think about the Falcons, lol. Oh and they got whacked by the Patriots this week too. So much for that "are they actually better than we think?" moment a three weeks ago.- Anime - Magical Girl Anime Thread, hajimarimasu!

William Bryan is alleged to have participated in the events leading up to the shooting (specifically, he joined chase/rundown that the McMichaels initiated although he didn't know why they were chasing Aubrey and allegedly hit Aubrey with his truck as a part of that chase); during the actual shooting he was recording the incident on his phone.- What are you Playing Now?

I did a few compendium fusions right before I got to that area not anticipating i'd immediately need the money. We'll see what I have after I get done my leisurely whack a monster walk from the starting save point (checking all the places Amanozako points out and recruiting demons for fusion).- What are you Playing Now?

I got wiped trying to see who was in the Diet. Didn't have enough money for the one Demon to mark Minmans. I think I'm going to spend some time grinding.- The TV and Streaming Thread: Now up for syndication...
TNG "Liasons" Trek does Misery. And what the hell happened to Starfleet's diplomats? It doesn't make sense how much diplomatic work the Enterprise crew does. Lower Decks "Terminal Provocations" amusing episode. I'm sure that we'll see Badgy again.- What are you Playing Now? Games = Life
Got Leanan Sidhe through merged and High Pixie. Finished some side quests and picked up a few more. Whacked an abscess, I think I have two more in this area.- The All Things Political Topic - As a Bright Lord bears Beacons of flame.
I think the only way the GOP collapses is if a third party takes hold and is able to stake out an approach that results in their membership pulling heavily from the party. Because as long as people keep pouring money into the GOP party, there's nothing that's going to stop it (it may be rendered inept by party infighting, but only lack of money to operate would really do anything, as I see it). I may be misremembering, but I seem to recall that historically every collapse of a major US party has coincided with the rise of a new party that ends up replacing the former party (or an upstart party that gains major traction quickly then loses it a few election cycles later).- Random-Interesting-Weird
If they had some Green Crabs, it'd be really in the spirit of Christmas, on that island.- Picture of Your Games the 14th
Not that clever, I'm afraid. The full name is Hiroshi Jinkawa, a name pulled directly from the human characters in GODZILLA VS MEGALON. The character, played by Yutaka Hayashi, was the friend of Goro Ibuki, inventor of Jet Jaguar.- Picture of Your Games the 14th

My understanding that was a pitch concept trailer. Cartoon Network has also filed for a trademark on Learning with Pibby: Apocalypse with the subsequent speculation being that Cartoon Network has decided to develop the series. - What are you Playing Now? Games = Life
