All ball game players should just be locked up. It would save a lot of time.

There's a river in Australia that has been following the same course since around 200 million years before the first dinosaur.

It won't be, because they will have 200 pages of personal regulations covering it.

That's good in a way - one RWNJ shot and the other removed from society. A win for everyone else.

'Assassination' is an interesting term for what was basically the FO part of FAFO. He wanted a society that uses guns to solve problems, and someone decided he was a problem in need of solving.

I should point out that whilst it's billed as a fantasy supplement there's a lot of useful traits and rules for historical actions as well.

It's not a bad game with galleys, but is more about skirmishes than the really big battles.

Here's a G&G game I ran based around the CSS Arkansas on the Yazoo river. It certainly worked fine with the slightly ropey ironclads of that period :) hordesofthethings.blogspot.com/2024/11/up-y...

I can believe she's murdered people, so maybe she's not lying.

Such crimes as 'loitering with intent to use a pedestrian crossing', 'coughing without due care or attention' or 'smelling of foreign food' maybe? www.youtube.com/watch?v=BO8E...

This is why you were equipped with fingers. I've just cleaned out a pot so thoroughly it could pretty much go straight into the recycling :)

So was the supposed White House Correspondents Dinner assassin the mysterious colonel rescued from Iran, or the former president who allegedly agreed with Trump's conduct of the war?

It could be a nice site for a wall. Real estate agents could then stand up against it and, for a brief final moment, be brought to realise the error of their ways.

The courses we have at work have all kinds of tricks in them to ensure you can't fast forward or skip bits :(

Our team has two people. We fail on sport, celebrities and most music. We also didn't grow up in Australia, and you'd be surprised how parochial trivia quizzes are. Needless to say, it's a good week if we manage to finish halfway. (We are strong on geography, history and science :) )

Maybe the farmer carved a stone into the shape of a loaf of bread. In which case it's whimsy, not a mistake :)

I'm seeing a heart-warming story of a cow-calf and rhino-calf being raised together. I'm not seeing 'random bread products in the wall' as part of it :)

I'm more impressed with the lovely view you have from your house. Shame about the recreational petrol-burning neighbour kid.

They're giving service to something that *sounds* a bit like 'country'. It's about time there was a mutiny.

I'm not entirely clear why the rhinoceros is a mistake. I mean it's unusual, but not impossible. We once came across a python whilst walking in the Pennines.

I can see 11, but that includes 'stile doesn't look safe'. 12 if 'girl bottom left has unsuitable shoes' counts :)

I was out in the garden today shredding up rubbish into mulch, and my thoughts turned to billionaires. That's it. That's the tweet.
