My brother used to put on extra coats just to hug people because the thought of touching humans sickened him.

Now he's a CMA in a nursing home.

That second one sucks because I love Fighting with the Melody, it's just such chaos

You're not alone there, snoop had an album come out the year before and after that both sold as explicit but that album didn't.

That's what the excess hydrogen canisters are for.

They're currently in litigation one child labor exploitation for profiting off of child made content and for terrible child safety standards for basically ignoring that it was a pedophile feeding ground. It's not dead though, probably going to be profitable forever.

I liken it to the feeling of a room you've just reorganized or when the seasonal lighting changes and everything feels familiar but just a little different. These spaces feel like but permanent. It's not uncomfortable, just not common. Spending time in these places helps me think about the way things are arranged.

That I can get behind. I'd love to build a windmill over my house and store extra energy as hydrogen or springs. I don't have to be cost effective of I'm not participating in the economy.

I love liminal spaces so much. Not the cg nonsense ones with the weird pools or endless test cell rooms but real ones. Hallways that fell crammed into buildings, like they build the rooms before realizing they need to be accessible. Rooms that have been converted into other rooms but will have the remnants of it's original use, like a stairway turned closet that still has the stairs as woefully inefficient shelves. Bedrooms that still have piping for the kitchen appliances that used to be there. Legal offices turned into studio apartments.

I love things like this.

I feel like spaceship freedom is the SciFi embodiment of American "freedom of the open road" propaganda.

I'd be into this.

An arch lighter version of a zippo. It fits in traditional zippo cases so I have a collection of shells that I change out to fit the mood. The current one is matte black with a cthulhu theme in brass but normally I use the mercury glass with bones and flowers. My wife calls it my zappo.

Also the severed finger of an elf.

 

So we have a few of these things and I honestly fell like they're critically under utilized for what they are. You can see the mini figure display space, the stand and folding wings come out leaving a sizable storage area, and the lid also opens to enough storage for all the parts in each set. The top of the lid is an ordinary 8x8 flat round corner.

Obviously, these would be great travel cases for Lego D&D Minifigs, with your fig, main equipment, and what not with the back space used for other equipment or cosmetics. That said, I really want to find a game that uses the building aspect of Lego and can be stored in these containers.

The best I've come up with would be some variation of Goh that uses smooth tiles? Maybe some sort of chess game? Any ideas would be appreciated, I've been wracking my brain on this for weeks.

 
 

So our neighbors have been a growing problem for a few months now. They seem to be a flop house for six or seven people, most of them look high all day. They go out and Rev a Harley at 3am, they burn plastic been our houses in a fire pit, they have a new dog every two weeks because they keep getting out and getting hit by traffic in the busy street we live on, the current two have bit people. I'm not one to care how someone lives, but these folks make the rest of our slum neighborhood look downright utopian.

I've tried taking to them, they're stupidly hostile. I've put in complaints with the city, noise complaints with the police, they don't do anything about it. Does anyone have advice on dealing with this? I'm tired, at my wits end, and my small town tactics aren't as easy to pull off in a proper city.
