How are you?

    Definitely not enough sleep

    I have the weekend off work and I'm going to a very chill wedding that I have no responsibility to organize, so it's nice. Also the storm last night took the edge off of the heat

  • civilizational collapse is upon us
  • Maybe in 4800 years people will share jokes about ancient 21st century doomsaying to poke fun of doomsayers in the 69th century, and someone will respond,

    "back when the fastest a human could travel was on a combustion-propelled rocket in space.

    back when the long distance strategic weapon was a nuclear ICBM."

  • Trying to decipher this ancient text. Anyone know this language?
  • I don't get it. Is this post just a joke that handwritten letters are old-fashioned compared to typed letters and emails, or simply poking fun at the writer's "old-fashioned" religious beliefs? I don't see anything historical.

    If you are the addressee of the letter then I offer my sympathy, it hurts when family find reasons not to be there for the most important days of your life. If you are the addressee then I wish you a happy wedding!

  • What should my next run look like? What have you had fun with?
  • I really enjoyed doing a high-Motorics ultralib superstar run. Become an action movie hero cop. Having high Perception and Reaction Speed skills reveals SO MUCH useful information.

    But to be honest I don't think there's ever been a playstyle that I DIDN'T enjoy.

  • Found out about these guys yesterday!
  • tbf I think cows, chickens, pigs, and fish are cute too

  • Oops! I did it again! Sourdough pizza.

  • Thank you so much for sharing, that is beautiful. It is a humbling experience to listen to this relic of the ancient world. Music is truly a language that transcends all boundaries.

  • Which small race for an Armorer Artificer?
  • 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.

  • Which one is it for you?
  • yesssss it is unforgivable that the RC plane and helicopter had completely different controls than actual planes and helicopters

  • Which one is it for you?
  • "Solve The Open Hand Murders." Too much running around, no real emotional payoff when speaking to the clergy of Ilmater after solving the murders, and Inspector Valeria is just complete and utter ass and I hate her. Why is there no option to say "IF BRILGOR 'OFFED HIMSELF' THEN WHY WASN'T THERE A MURDER WEAPON ON HIS PERSON YOU SHITEY LITTLE ELEPHANT?!"

  • Empty Coconut
  • That's gorgeous

  • What’s the most common owl in the world?
  • Ah, thanks. I had to look it up. I think my folks just call them hand towels

  • What’s the most common owl in the world?
  • I still don't get it...

  • No words. Just rage.
  • I love throwing weapons (and enemies) but dang, this game uses an unrealistically high arc for throwing spears, daggers, and axes. I hate that Path Interrupted warning 😖

  • What is the most musical instrument?

    Mushroom-and-onion pizza

    I got some pizza disks for Christmas, they're a real game changer. I can finally cook a GOOD hand-stretched pizza crust in my home oven without worrying about messing up the launch or preheating the steel. No longer am I limited to pan pizza.

    Lloyd pizza disks are a game changer

    Got some pizza disks for Christmas. Makes it so much easier to cook a good hand-stretched pizza crust in my home oven.

    Pepperoni for my wife; mushrooms and onions for me. A blend of mozz, Muenster, and feta on both.

    CK3 - Can heresies occur in any religion, or are they limited to Christianity?

    I'm on my fifth playthrough of the game, 597 hours in total. The first four playthroughs were as various Pagan and Muslim faiths. I never once saw anything about a heresy appear in game.

    This time around I decided to start as a Catholic and establish a new Christian faith. I've already been given two separate prompts asking me if I want to convert to the Cathar heresy, and then later my new Christian faith was declared a heresy and about six random rulers throughout Europe decided to convert to my faith without any input from me.

    Seems like heresies are a big deal when you start as a European Catholic but I had no idea they even existed before this. I tried reading up on it and it seems like heresies occur when Fervor is too low.

    Does anyone know if heresies can occur in other religions? I usually don't pay close attention to Fervor, so I'm not sure if it's a Christian-exclusive mechanic, or if Catholicism just happens to be one of the only faiths with such a swingy Fervor score.

    Recommendations for similar games?

    I'm absolutely loving CK3 and wondering if anyone can recommend something similar for me.

    I'm looking for games with personal character-based role-playing, where you can influence and customize your culture, religion and government. I like light-to-moderate strategy elements, but I'm more interested in the world-building and immersion. I don't mind whether it's a historical setting or not.

    Looking forward to hearing your favorite recommendations! Thanks in advance!

    Renewed Jihad makes no sense...?

    This event randomly popped up while I was playing. My character is the Sunni Caliph. I have a custom faith with the Pacifism tenet; I thought I needed Struggle and Submission to initiate Great Holy Wars at all. Also, why would I need to "retake" the core regions when my faith already controls all five holy sites? And why didn't I have any decision or input if my own character is the one declaring an era of renewed Jihad?

    This is bizarre.
