American. Anything to avoid metric...

The sanction he's referring to is barring them from travel to Russia.

The sanction he's referring to is barring them from travel to Russia.

So the combination is one, two, three, four, five? That's the stupidest combination I've ever heard in my life! The kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage!

Well, the main obstacle at the time was that there was no way to ban abortion which would hold up to even minor scrutiny in lower courts.
 
This "bounty hunter" model caught most everyone by surprise.
 
I'd heard this issue discussed in both left and right forums for over 20 years and never heard a hint of any plan going toward that route.
 
I don't personally think bounty hunters should hold up to scrutiny when applied to people exercising their constitutional rights. If it did, you could have anti-free speech bounty hunters and anti-free press bounty hunters and anti-"people attending church" bounty hunters.
 
But for now, they've got a foothold.

Musk told them no to the polonium.
 
Apparently he never learned polonium or any other horseback sport.

This is an old Soviet joke, apparently:
 
A man hands out political fliers in the Red Square. KGB swiftly swoops in and arrests him. But back at the HQ they see that all the pages are blank. What's all this, then?
 
"I saved on the printing cost," the man says, "everyone already knows what the problem is."

The new Moon Knight series on Disney+ looks great.
 

I always default to con artist.
 
My wizard is a con artist. Most of his spells help him in some way of being able to accomplish pulling of the con and make people trust him. He's more into the spirit of pulling off the con rather than necessarily making money off of the con. He deeply wants to be popular and to leave each and every mark liking him at the end (rather than being out for his blood).
 
Young, healthy, charismatic (but in more of a subtle manner than a televangelist manner). Some combination of Acting, Charm, Conversation, multiple languages if that's needed to interact with NPC's in the campaign area, Persuasion.
 
A small Transform as a mending and repair (or breaking) spell which can be used on clothing, houses, and carts or just to keep himself looking nice. Or which save his marks enough time and effort to gain their gratitude. Or to break something so he can later repair it in order to gain gratitude. He uses this very liberally to help people because it always helps to have friends.
 
A reliable offensive spell. Probably fire based so it can be used for starting campfires.
 
Some Mental Illusions.
 
An Aid spell with variable result, usable on others. Gives him a way to assist his comrades or make his horse/cart move faster.
 
A ranged shielding spell usable on others, something more flashy than Aid if there's still points available for it. I've preferred something like Force Walls in the past but if magic is frowned upon or feared, it'd be more likely to be a boost to PD or ED.
 
If there's something campaign-specific, perhaps a spell to deal with that. Like a desert campaign would leave him needing a spell to create water and another to dissipate heat. 
 
Other than that, it's all interacting favorably with NPC's and trying to amuse his traveling companions.
 
He doesn't see himself as a nice person even when he's actually being a nice person. He sees himself as conning people into thinking he's a nice person. If he mends someone's clothing and they offer him a drink of wine, he's sees that as "I conned someone into giving me a drink of wine".
 
He wants to be remembered and to develop a favorable reputation.

I saw that tweet referenced earlier today.
 
The TV segment it shows was from before the invasion of Ukraine. That doesn't make it just a whole lot better. But it's not like they're showing this to Russians while their troops are in Ukraine and telling them "this is what we're going to do next".
 
I'm sure they'll wait until after they finish in Ukraine before they start showing their next targets on TV and talking about finding a pretext to invade them.
 
 
You know, I get that people think the US runs around the world getting involved in other people's wars...because we do.
 
But we don't tend to look at our immediate neighbors, repeatedly, and tell ourselves stuff like "it'd be really great if we were to conquer Baja California" or "Quebec is kind of nice this time of year and, come to think of it, we don't have a French-speaking state in the north".

My 1st attempt at challah

It's almost as though someone over there finally got a clue.  How long before they are fired?

Does anyone have a picture of the Ukrainian Olympic Javelin Team?
 
edit: Nevermind, found one.

Police have confirmed that the man who died falling off the roof of the bar last night was not the bouncer.
