@CoyoteTraveller Oh, that's been done before! Also I haven't yet had my first PSL of the season.
also you've seen this? https://youtu.be/1ZSUglmLhnY?si=qEKFsDgiefWWyuWM
@topaz I got this temp gig theoretically for 3 months, and started about 2 weeks back. Theoretically seasonal since tied to fishing, but maybe I have a chance of going longer? It's an okay drive from my place.
At the end of the movie Zulu (probably hugely problematic; has only a faint resemblance to the battle of Roarke’s Drift; was on tv a lot when I was a kid, I still love it) there’s this blurb about how 11 men in that action won the VC out of 1000+ VC Awards in the prior century (this in 1964ish).
So… averages out to 10+ VC winners annually. Even assuming some years (1914, 1940, etc) are going to be unusually heavy, that’s a LOT of wars Britain’s been in over that time period.
@topaz can’t, I’m at day job rn!
Since the most British media includes charming animals, the pastoral countryside, mysteries and the Blitz/finest hour we can logically conclude the most British show ever would be Watership Down in the 20s/30s but with locked-warren murders, and then RAF bunnies.
And then of course the daleks would show up.
@topaz @frost @certifiedperson Okay! I obviously wasn't up for much and am about to fall over early soon, myself. Hope you're doing a little better after sleeping.
re: dinner
@topaz @frost @certifiedperson instant mashed potatoes can't melt steel beams?
@frost the TTRPG had two more intermediate forms, glabro, a really muscly monstrous human and hispo, a really muscly monstrous wolf.
@frost @certifiedperson probably not up for it quite yet, soon tho
@frost yes and no. The Bay Area is like LA or around Puget Sound, a large enough area it’s worthwhile but not getting into big road-trips like you’re worried about. BUT there are places you’d rather use transit since parking is a real pain, like downtown Seattle or Berkeley.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
