It'll be a Bambu A1. It was consistently recommended as the best for beginners who had no idea what they were doing.😅

I'm acquiring a 3D printer soon, so I'm looking forward to reading how this goes!

My son was born when everyone was huddled in little 'pods', and so no one was sure how safe it would be to have family visit. But they came anyway, so we just stood in the front window, showing him off, and thanking everyone for the gifts they left by the door for us to go get once they left.😄

I went to a convention last month, and the Wretched Hive were performing in the lounge, and the crowd was happily singing along to their Star Wars chanties. People can still do sing-alongs in pubs, they just don't. If you want more singing in pubs, you just need to start going to pubs and sing.

Oh, hey! I -just- dug this very guy out earlier today while cleaning, and trying to decide whether to keep all my Botcon junk.

I do love that Armorhide, great mold, plus he's a stand-up comic with the best surprise gimmick -- when he bombs, he missiles!

Those Expendables movies lost all credibility with me for their failure to include both her and Al Leong. How could you have a classic action movie mash up without them? It's absurd.

Yeah, I'm just a couple of years younger (little sister Erica's age!). I get the headline's intent, but it's just amusingly phrased.😄

But complaining about new rule sets always seems particularly hilarious to me. Nothing's stopping anyone from running 1e, AD&D or whatever your table prefers!

I know it's not the point, but ... Stranger Things is set in 1983. They're complaining D&D was ruined by the original generation of people who played it.😄

Structurally, the President should just not be allowed to pardon perjury or contempt of court. Allowing that renders the court system unable to function against the government, and transforms it into a mere tool of the Executive.

I volunteer to help my son's kindergarten class in the lunchroom on Mondays, and today was apparently the day it hit them. They all kept sing-songing, "6-7" and laughing.

Fingers crossed that it's real!🤞

Here's hoping the good folks of Mecklenburg County can remember why General Cornwallis once referred to them as the "hornet's nest" in the "tar heel" state.

Seconded.

If only I had an infinite room to play it in!😄
