I remember you could open console & type in orange to make it look like the game or an admin generated the text. Great trolling fun!

Images of the four stamps

Had a conversation with someone some time ago about Tolkien & L.O.T.R. For them & anyone else interested, the Swiss Post is issuing 4 L.O.T.R. stamps to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his passing. Beautiful artwork! Can be purchased from their website: https://shop.post.ch/shop/ui/en/stamps-philately/stamps/c/stamps

Alexa & other platforms have been doing this for years now.

Welcome back!

There's over 50 kinds with various recipes. If it's flour-based & deep fried, I'm calling it a doughnut.

I hereby declare August 11 to be 'Sneak some sausage through your neighbor's back d0Or' day. Let's have those photos.

...aaand where would you sneak it if they don't have a porch...

You can use greyscale topographic maps-to include real-world- to import any terrain you like.

They make colors 'pop' for me & cultivate a feeling of happy wellbeing.

North Central Kentucky. Fort Knox area.

Lol, I know where to find them. Come across them from time to time while I'm foraging.

One of my favorites is in season. They taste soon good with their earthy, nutty delicate taste. What's also great is they're easy to identify, so even an Idiot can safely forage them. The scent is fairly of Apricots. They last a good week in the fridge. There's so many, I preserve them for later by slicing, briefly sautéing for a couple minutes then freezing. They last a good 6 months, which means you can enjoy them with steaks, omelets, make the best cream of mushroom soup, all the way through winter. Just verify the flesh is white & pulls apart like string cheese, to differentiate from the poisonous Jack-o-Lantern mushroom whose flesh is orange.

Encountered these on my hike today; graciously collected these & fried them up. Very tasty & a harbinger of several others-like Chanterelles- coming into season.

There's no definitive studies to make a solid consensus, but some of my friends say it helps them, so when the opportunity presented itself, I collected it for them.

I have some friends who've been wanting some, so I got it for them.

I see all too often posts in various computer forums where people complain of their computer randomly crashing, getting a BSOD, their gpu artifacting, their memory fucking up...all because they went cheap on their psu.

...presented to me while wandering the forest; made a tincture.

Get a larger capacity psu...if you spend good $$ on computer components, give 'em all the juice they need & then some. Also covers you if you wanna upgrade components or add shit later...

For many of us, eating wild plants comes naturally, taking its nascent form in our childhoods as we play and explore the outdoors: Wild Blackberries, Strawberries, Raspberries; picking a honeysuckle, pinching-off the bottom & drawing that sweet nectar from the flower, wild onion, Red Clover and many others. As we grow older, modern society and the responsibilities of adulthood draw us away from this happy, healthy endeavor. Being in the Boyscouts, identifying plants, their likely habitats & companion plants, their practical uses as components for tools, medicine, food, shelter was really gratifying. The increased competence enhanced my enjoyment of the wilderness, made me feel even more comfortable and confident in my surroundings. Anyways, there's lots of good food out there for free & it's a pursuit and activity to which I've returned, folding it into my daily life and activities. This week I foraged some Milkweed, as it's one of the plants available this time of year. Made a healthy snack from Common Milkweed unopened flower umbels(clusters) A 30 second - 1 minute blanching in boiling water, steaming, or sautéing makes them very tasty. I like them with just a little cracked pepper & sea salt. Every part of the plant is edible after you cook it. Don't eat raw. Its leaves are the sole food of Monarch Butterfly caterpillars, so I leave those plants be if I see one. You'd be surprised the number of edible plants around you, throughout the year, not to mention medicinal value. The last 2 pictures are of some Mullein I also foraged earlier this week.
