The crazy thing is that the Dutch (or the people who lived in what is now the Low Countries) were winning that war pretty handily until like eight thousand years ago. Then they lost Doggerland to the sea.

Their descendants remember, though. The Dutch will rise again.

I’ve heard Rodgers referred to as “Throw Rogan,” so I think I’m just gonna call him that from now on. Not so much a new wave hippie. Just an “I’m just asking the questions” guy who presents himself as a radical thinker but just ends up supporting the status quo of conservatism.

I hope he doesn’t rely on modern medicine to help him heal or anything. I hear doctors believe in vaccines and other gub’ment fairy tales.

I think it would be just as viable as Monk up in the front lines. As a lvl 4 monk, you’ve probably got 18 Dex and 14ish Wis. That’s AC 16. Dance Bard will have 14ish Dex and 18 Cha, so also AC 16. Same d8 hit die as Monk, too.

That “I intercepted it, better lateral it” thing goes badly more often than not

If the punishment is a fine, they’ll just incorporate that into the price of doing business. Not a great look.

I think their rockets are cool. But if they can violate a launch license without getting grounded, what’s the point of launch licenses?

I’m a Colts fan who was supremely bummed out when Luck retired. And really, we haven’t been very good since. It sucks.

But he’s a good guy, and he was getting absolutely obliterated out there. I don’t begrudge his decision for a second. I’m glad he’s going to be able to live the rest of his life with intact ribs and ankles and stuff.

I think Tua should do the same. It’s one thing to have your bones hurt forever. It’s another to have your brain turned to scrambled eggs and either eat from a straw for the rest of your life or end up going all Hernandez and killing someone and then yourself. It’s not worth it.

The data is interesting. But this is a really poorly constructed graph.

Well, as long as my general convinces the senate to give us all good plots of land. The last couple of guys have had some problems doing so, but I’m sure my general will do it this time!

I enjoy a good non-oversexualized depiction of Samus. She’s an absolute badass. But everyone just wants to drool at her skin tight blue suit.

The industry standard is HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography). Those things go for tens of thousands of dollars up front, plus maintenance and consumables.

If there was a less costly way of doing it, you bet companies would have settled on that by now.

make the best decisions they can

I would recommend an HPLC and a competent analytical chemist to gather data and decide whether or not a batch is safe to consume.
