    Comes through the bladder, but isn’t pee. They did an ultrasound study where women emptied thier bladders and then stimulated until they squirted. Thier bladder is empty of urine, but rapidly fills and releases a clear fluid to squirt.

    If the lady doesn’t empty her bladder first, it’s going to have urine in it. But the fluid itself isn’t urine.



  • Having played all the editions in the comic, I’m going to go out on a limb and say that 4e is unfairly maligned and I would rather play it over Advanced 2e or 3.5.

    The powers system gets bloated fast, but offloading potentially broken support spells and powers into 10min to 1 hour rituals is genius. 4e has the only useful version of Pyrotechnics between the listed editions.

    Short Rests being 5 min instead of 1 hour really feels like the pace of encounters keeps up without any awkward pauses, and means encounter powers are reliably up by the next fight.

    The understanding that mechanical roles and flavor power sources could be swapped around and make a bunch of classes instead of trying to theme classes solely around fantasy archetypes let them have greater design freedom.

    Short rests and powers attached to them, subclasses being a core part of the basic classes, ritual casting, at-will basic spells for casters, & proto-advantage in some class abilities are all extracted from 4e.

    5e isn’t bad - its arguably the best version of D&D. But I’ve seen a lot better fantasy systems than D&D, and some fantastic mechanics left on the cutting room floor between NEXT and 5e.













  • Absolutely wild movie with incredible animation. Story is okay and the ending is abrupt with no epilogue, but it’s worth watching just for the animation and score, which is phenomenal. The opening sequence is one of the best matches of music to onscreen action I’ve ever seen.

    The dub is pretty good too. There’s a couple places where the sub sounds more appropriate and a couple places the dub has more impactful word choice, but you won’t lose any of the experience by going dub over sub.



  • I believe the article, in the very narrow thing it actually claims, which is that the starches that come off of rice in washing don’t matter much in how sticky the rice is. That’s mostly down to what kind of rice you’re using. Short grain is stickier, longer grains are not.

    I’m still 100% going to wash my rice because I don’t want to deal with the cleanup on that extra starch, it gets everywhere. And while I haven’t had bugs in my rice for a while, it happens sometimes.
