"I'm under the desk, not in the way, why you bother me with the flashy thing?" - Explorer the Cat.

Wonder how many, and what types, of doctors DGB has "read in" to magic and/or aliens. I assume that they have at least one general practitioner on staff.

It's nippy (around 45) and we are forecast to have the first freeze of the season tonight. Thankfully it's stopped raining and isn't forecast to do so in the next 10 days.

"Planing my day. I've already attacked The Human's feet. Think I'll eat something and see how the day goes from there.

He was designed to teach wizards that already had some amount of power, so, no, not really a beginner's training wand.

It's sorta his job.

Some classified documents have a "sunset" date included in them. For example the documents (schematics, theory of operation, users manuals) for Nike Hercules were set to expire in 1978. 1978 rolls around and "Oops, still using Nike, better remove the sunset date from the cover". It's declassified now, other than the parts dealing with nuclear warheads and command burst as the actual warhead is still in use in other weapon systems.

It's cold (37 Freedom Units, 3 rest of world) and rainy. I have body aches and a migraine. Not sure I'm going to stay up today. Analgesics are barely doing any thing. This, to use a common phrase, sucks rocks.

"Got the zoomies. Gonna run around for a while, then join The Human on the desk. He needs my help this morning. He really slept in." - Explorer The Cat.

I have body aches. Off to Weather Underground: Oh, that's why. Gonna take an analgesic and get under my electric blanket.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do when it gets cold. With windchill due to e-bike speed it was 31 (freedom units) [-1 rest of world] I know I'm going to need better gloves and will need to wear 2 pair of socks. Not looking forward to winter.

"I must attack the blanket!" - Explorer the Cat.

"I'll mark the desk as mine. I'll let The Human use it, but it's my desk!" - Explorer the Cat.

Sorta. They said that bastions were optional.

The latest One D&D has dropped. This covers Druids and Paladins. Sorta nurfed druids wild shape. Removed the "Roll a 1 get Heroic Inspiration" rule and returned it to DM's call. https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/one-dnd

During my 1st tour in Germany, "Chicken Man" was an important part of morning rituals. When it finished, you had 5 minutes to finish breakfast and get out side for morning formation. Of course this was the same unit that had betting pools on what the letter of the day was on Sesame Street.

It's an OS upgrade, not a full version number change. At least so far.

I just finished reading the latest "One D&D" release. Bastions seem like they could be fun, however they assume that the characters take multiple week down time between adventures. This isn't a bad thing, but does tend to slow down in game time. They have improved most of the cantrips. This release doesn't include a rules change, so I assume that the rules changes in the drop before this one are still in effect.

They haven't said that they are going to pay him, just give him a lab. Granted I suspect that the "lab expenses" account is going to have more than one pizza party on it.

I remember Chicken Man from it being on AFN while I was in Germany in the late 70's. Might have been reruns.

"I'm not grumpy and I'm not in the way. You haven't even started the tea water yet. I'll move when you finish making tea. Maybe. Depends on how I feel" - Explorer the Cat.

/me And we get another star on the mummy dude's page.
