Coolness. I've blogged for around 20 years. Used a dozen platforms. Always end up quitting, because of spam, psychos in the comments, ads, poor design, or boredom. I have never been bored on this platform. I have never been spammed, or had psychos come after me. The design is elegant as hell. If BearBlog were a guy,...
Hereâs the last of a set of varieties that came in an enormous bucket I found at a local grocery for CNY. These have been pretty good! Letâs try this last one. Mo Xiao Xian Spicy Chongqing Noodle â China A distributor / import sticker (click to enlarge). Detail of the side panels (click to enlarge). Looks to be meat...
The problem with also being a publisher is work in progress often skips public scrutiny. The scrutinising isn't so essential as the act of putting it out there and cementing part of its reality, which I do less than ever resulting in a cutting room floor three feet deep. First foot goes down here. I had this idea...
I went to plenty of great sessions when I was in Belfast. One of the best was during Belfast Tradfest, out at The Hatfield with BrĂd Harper, Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh, and Michael Rooney. I ended up sitting next a lovely local fiddler named John. I saw him again the next day when I was at Ulster University for my...
Yeah, I'm committing to the bit.I recently converted Dungeon Module B1: In Search of the Unknown to Into the Oddish. It's B1, but with Pokémon. I even created a sandbox for it, just as I did with the original B1. I've been running B1 in AD&D 2e since March and have been writing play reports for the campaign more or...
Orosius, Against the Pagans 2.6.13 (tr. Roy J. Deferrari): It is not necessary at this point to amplify the unstable conditions of changing events. For whatever is made by the hand and work of man collapses and is consumed by the passage of time, as the capture of Babylon confirms. exaggerare hoc loco mutabilium...
A.W. Pickard-Cambridge (1873-1952), Demosthenes and the Last Days of Greek Freedom, 384-322 B.C. (New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1914), p. 489: The claim of Demosthenes to be ranked among the heroic men of the past rests above all on the constancy and sincerity with which he defended the noblest cause known to the...
I was taken aback by the description âQUANTUM DRYâ but then I remembered Chapter 40 of the Feynman Lectures on Physics on the topic of The Flow of Dry Water, by which is meant the flow of a fluid with zero viscosity (i.e. inviscid flow). I therefore infer that the material of which this product is composed is a...
Thanks to Charlie Horse 47 and Killdumpster for their sponsorship of this post, via the magic of Patreon. ***Image by Tumisufrom PixabayA wise woman once sang, "Surprise surprise. The unexpected hits you between the eyes."But what could possibly surprise a man of my sagacity?There's only one thing.And that's the...
photo cred: my dadI owe an apology to every English teacher I ever had. I always assumed that so-called âgreatâ literature was a hoax, a punishment inflicted upon adolescents for the crime of being young. These books did not have anything special about them, and covering up that fact was simply a make-work exercise...
