The extra unopened package of rolls we got for tenderloin sammiches on Saturday is somehow already moldy so I’m making mashed potato and beef tendy nachos for dinner because I also have a half bag of tortilla chips leftover with nothing to dip them in lol

Okay hear me out.

Get a banh mi for lunch. Ask for extra veggies on the side.

Get your chips, cover them in some kinda mild cheese, toss some leftover meats on top, then toss your leftover banh mi vegetables on top.

Eat 'em, and enjoy.

exercise undue power, subvert the proper channels, be a boss

This is what normal people imagine all people in power do constantly: but it's really only what people like Trump do constantly, and their peers all go "wait I could actually get away with that poo poo? no way" and then are too chicken-poo poo to do. They're not morally opposed, mind you, just too small-minded or fearful. "Congressman receives free bail-out from Corn Lobby on snow day" would make these people (by which I mean, some democratic congressperson) resign in shame, while Trump would just smugly grin and be like "gently caress you I do what I want" and then somehow not magically lose power due to the outraged constituents.

A single guy getting plucked out of a 27 hour traffic jam because he's a Senate special boy would enrage people, literally leaving people in the cold while he's whisked away by a helicopter.

Maybe a hot take since it seems crazy popular but I bounced off that game hard, even with a prebuilt character and thinking I understood the basics I couldn’t get anywhere on the first island without absolutely getting my poo poo rocked in combat, and without any actual indications about what I was doing wrong or could change I got pretty mad and dropped it. Like, I used to muscle through OG Baldur’s Gate and whatnot, I like to think I’m okay with unfriendly and confusing systems, but D:OS2 just wasn’t for me.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

I bought Scythe on steam because I needed a turn based strategy game to play. I definitely need to figure out the strategy. It took me a little bit to get the basics of play down and I’m still learning after playing through a couple of times. I’m getting beat on easy, so I’ve got a long ways to go.

Fortunately we're also going into it with someone who has played before. I'm not going to try to minmax anything and am planning to follow a build guide. Just don't have the time to fiddle with that kind of stuff anymore.

Scythe is great, one of our favorite board games. Only thing is the mechs make it look like combat plays a bigger role than it does, when it's really more engine building (pretty much Stonemaier's MO).

That's more or less the first half of my point, yes.

It's inconsistent for these people to feel shame and avoid behaving like this when it comes to escaping traffic jams, while simultaneously crushing millions of americans via policy action/inaction. People like Trump are actually more honest, in that they flagrantly don't give a poo poo and take maximal advantage of their power and privileges. The only explanation I can come up with is cowardice. It sure isn't an actual conscience.

Trump could've gotten away with getting helicoptered out cause it would've may the libs very mad, which is all the hog like maga voters care about. Every bit of shithead trump behavior was OK with them because the libs were owned.

By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

Yea I think that’s part of my problem. I keep building up for battles that don’t happen, or happen really late in the game. Also need to learn the strengths of each faction. It’s just a very different game than I’m used to.
