Threw a wrestling watch party, made special food, and was very disappointed in the outcome.
  • Absolutely this. Can confirm from experience. I got it from my Ma, whenever family was hosting growing up she was doing the most. Flexing at every opportunity. Obviously good to play with a budget you wouldn't mind burning so you don't chew off too much, but keep being extra.

  • Emails reveal how Walz struggled to deal with unrest, reach consensus with critics after police killings
  • As a local bloke, this whole sitch is pretty much the one sour point of Walz's run. And like, I try to be reasonable, and I WOULD NOT want to be in his shoes during those protests. Yes, some of us got quite out of hand, but we were understandably quite cross with the fact that while we're trying to survive a pandemic, we're still getting lynched over allegedly bad bills -- which is royally fucked all day ever day.

    Hard to know what would have even been a better path forward. MPD famously has many critics, with good reason. But it got out of hand with the friendly fire and collateral damages. Pretty damned on both sides of the coin. Letting Trump roll in goon squads would no doubt be even worse. Saw plenty peaceful protests get agitated by 12 until it became chaos. That summer was fucked.

    Juuust a wee ramble from a dude who recalls the cop riots, brutality, and flames like they were just the other summer...

  • Chaotic south Minneapolis shooting leaves at least 3 dead including officer, suspect

    "A Minneapolis police officer, a suspected shooter and a civilian are dead after a shooting in the Whittier neighborhood on Thursday, the department said. Several others are injured.

    Officer Jamal Mitchell died in the shooting, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said in an evening news conference."

    'He was a hero, a son, a father, a fiancé, and an officer who was so deeply committed to protecting and serving,” Frey said. “Just a year ago Officer Jamal Mitchell was recognized for a heroic act in saving a number of people, an elderly couple, and that is just the kind of person that he was.'"

    --

    Now, I'm usually team ACAB but this event is a tragedy, so we're taking a day off. Jamal was one of the first to this scene, and while trying to offer medical support got ambushed and killed.

    My brother was a few blocks away, but managed to be either far enough away or had good enough timing to not hear gunshots.

    Who's got that good muffuletta in the Twin Cities?

    Thanks in advance!

    Tip of my Tongue! B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b booyakusha!

    Hey team, I'm going mental trying to relocate this one!

    I have very little to go off of, but this tune has been digging through my skull and I NEED to scratch this itch!

    I don't have much for distinguishing features to share, but the biggest thing that stands out is the sample. For a large portion of the tune, vocal is chopped up like "b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-booyakusha!"

    It'll get pitched up, it'll get pitched down, but just relentless booyakushas in my brain the last 48 hours!

    Long shot, but I'll owe ya if you can cure what ails me. I seemed to be stumbling into it plenty until I need it!

    Thanks in advance!

    My Godzilla + King Kong Campaign

    First off, game is great!

    So I made a Dragonborn for Godzilla, and got a buddy to help build an Orc for King Kong. (I'll try to upload a proper shot of my dudes later). Went lightning breath attack (mostly for the blue color) but maybe should be radiant or necrotic to better emulate atomic breath.

    Godzilla is a monk/draconic sorcerer for unarmed attacks and various elemental damage. King Kong is a monk/barbarian for unarmed and rage, extra jumpy. Although sometimes he leans into Donkey Kong and hurls barrels.

    Early game I've needed Gale for enlarge person. Should respec another buddy for a second enlarge. Ideally it would be peak excellence if I could make them colossal more reliably and shrink enemies for maximum size difference. I've managed to brew like 2 elixers, but still find ingredients a bit too few to do that often. Also [MAYBE SPOILER??] juuust tucking into underdark at level 5.

    Wondering if anyone else has inspired ideas on how these Kings of Monsters can live their best lives. I also love how this game makes such an absurd run remotely viable in the first place!

    Please also share any silly meme builds you've been brewing!

    DJ's of Lemmy, where/how are you getting music for your arsenal?

    Basically title. Been DJ'n for a hot minute and wondering how people are adding to their collections. Mostly mix House, DnB, Dub, Hip-hop, Lofi, and plenty of genre-blurring niche experimental biz.

    Some of the stuff I have was inherited from others, some of questionable quality. Lately I've been inspired to tidy up my collection with high quality stuff. Fundamental issue is if I paid a dollar for every song I want to spin, I would be financially ruined forever.

    Do you use a service? Do you pirate? Do you find giveaways? How are you filling your catalogue with proper high-quality ammo?
