Re: the Rapture Box anon, that's honestly such a funny concept even without the double entendre. Yeah I think my friends are sinners who will be slaves of Satan and his demons in the new Hell on Earth*, but they will apparently have enough free time and resources to make use of my brownie recipe.

Like okay. Also how good do they think their brownies are, that makes for a good consolation prize?

*(That's what happens after the Rapture, right? I wasn't raised Christian, let alone Rapture-anticipating Christian)

I think it's proof that deep down they don't actually think it's going to happen. One of those things where you're conscious mind acts like you believe it, but your subconscious truly does not. Because you're right; it's a really insane thing to expect people to have a use for when they're going through the Tribulation

(which yes, is basically being tortured by Satan or the woke left New World order or whatever. The specifics vary from group to group, and anyway this is all something that theologians came up with in the 1830s based on what seems to me a very dramatic reading of two very undramatic Bible verses)

I would love to see you write Spider-Man.

I feel like any Spider-Man I were to write would make it very obvious that I utterly despair at the current state of journalism, and the Daily Bugle would end up being the main focus.

Also if I'm not mistaken that poll doesn't say anything about raising the kid if you don't want to--just carrying and delivering.

Exactly! You could adopt it out immediately if you wanted to. You could pay another person to raise the kid for you and only show up once a year like a fairy godmother and give the kid a fucking tiger or something for their birthday.

Hi, I have a question about Homebrewery use: How do you make a table have as many rows as you need? All the pre-set tables seem to have 5 rows, and I can't figure out how to expand them.

Hey there! In order to add rows to your table, you can copy one of the rows that you have and add it as many times as you need at the bottom. I'll be using the following standard table coding generated by the Homebrewery as an example:

##### Cookie Tastiness | Tastiness | Cookie Type | |:----:|:-------------| | 8th | Chocolate Chip | | 11th | 2 or lower | | 14th | 3 or lower | | 17th | 4 or lower |

You can simply copy and paste the last row of your table, and add it directly below the last line of your table's coding to add more rows to your table, like so:

| 14th | 3 or lower | | 17th | 4 or lower | | 17th | 4 or lower | | 17th | 4 or lower |

And so forth! If you'd like to add columns to the table, you widen each line of your table like so, also creating a new column header ("Ingredients" in this example):

##### Cookie Tastiness | Tastiness | Cookie Type | Ingredients | |:----:|:-------------|:----------------| | -5 | Raisin | Dried grapes |

And so on, adding as many rows and colums as you need (and adding your own table contents!). Hope this helps! :)

Oh and also! The others insist on Jonny being "First Mate" because he's one of them, on their level, not older and scarier and a different kind of immortal like Carmilla was. It's arguably disrespect, but more importantly, it's love. He, meanwhile, so desperately wants to be Captain because if he's an equal to Carmilla, then if she ever comes back (bc she's not dead), he can stand up to her and make her leave his crew alone.

Okay but this is just objectively true

Gotta do the classic: “I got a false ID for a forging drunk; spent a hundred-twenty credits on a Unicorn!”

Makes sense, what is a unicorn if not a broken horse

So Celestial Thorne is willing to have a very polite and very aristocratic character, but none of the real bastards are aristocratic at all? Man, you know, I love some "What if rich people were good" escapism as much as anyone, but I think it might be nice to add a real jerk of an aristocrat for contrast.

who could have guessed that Celestial Throne would turn out to be problematic
