I’ve used coloured glass stones in the past. Use different colours for 1s 10s 100s. It’s not perfect, but t tub of these is pretty cheap iirc and great in a sack as a life counter in games like escape the dark castle!

Your right. I’m such a fool! There’s no hope!

I like that is was originally “The Spy who loved you” and the fixed it.

Accusing people of witchcraft was also a great way of avoiding blame. Bread didn’t rise properly? Not my fault. Neighbour is a witch.

Poor 1989eddy, he just wanted to help her with learning how to use tiktok.

Woah hold your horses there bossman. You and the guy in OPs post. You got a way to go before you can back that claim of “at least” up!

I asked a friend this the other day and they didn’t know. In the last election Harris seemed to be set up to take over from Biden at the next election, but since then I’ve not heard anything about her or what she’s been up to as VP. What happened?

Um…no no, this is just our … hyperbaric chamber, yes. For eternal youth. Have you seen the hallway? It’s exquisite!

Remember to apologise to the pork.

I followed Adam’s double stock Yuzu ramen recipe and it’s wonderful. You are cooking for 2-3 days though!

I … honestly would be up for this approach. When do you run for office, sir?

I think they mean the millionaires will find other ways to hoard it to avoid tax levels they won’t stomach. Fair? No. Reality? Probably.

What are the other 81 photos like though?!

Woah this looks amazing. Now I have a new project to add to the list! Got any videos of it in use? How does it feel? Did you document the build process?

Damn you for opening up these possibilities!

Looks great! Always looking for good chilli recipes, care to share?

I said something similar in another reply, but I can’t think of any games where winning/losing is possible but doesn’t change my enjoyment. Even elden ring invasions feel better if you win the encounter.

The only thing that could come close is an encounter like that or in something like DMZ where you can talk it out and join forces, but maybe that’s just another form of winning.

Trying to think of an example of any games I play where winning or losing is possible, but doesn’t affect my enjoyment.

I’m coming up short, I don’t think I can honestly say that I have one. Anyone else?

What counts as a “competitive game” - is it anything where there are winners and losers or something more specific?

Sorry to hear your laid up, migraines suck. Hope you feel better soon!

What TV/games are you enjoying to make the best of it?

The safe space idea is interesting. Maybe there would be a correlation between the type of drug and risks associated with it and the use of those spaces. I’m not sure people would make the effort to go to a space to smoke when they can do it pretty safely at home.

I was thinking about this some more yesterday and ultimately land in the area of it’s a good sounding change and if it leads to some instances of antisocial behaviour, then let’s look at how we solve that afterwards. Were never going to find a single perfect solution to everything and meanwhile people are dying.

I can put my “what about me?!” problems to one side.
