This isn’t a “news story from a credible source,” this is a blog post about a Twitter thread and it offers absolutely no context or insight.

What is the protest about? Why is the U.S. Secret Service involved?

The LAPD put out a statement saying they’re aware of people exercising their first amendment rights by protesting, and that they’ll be on site to ensure public safety. That seems pretty damn reasonable to me. I don’t trust the police either, but if you’re going to immediately draw a connection between this event and horrific police brutality, please give me something more substantial than “they worded a tweet awkwardly.”

“Oniony headlines” lose their impact when they’re placed at the top of inflammatory fluff pieces.

I love Solasta. It doesn’t have quite the same narrative depth and player agency as (the first half of) Baldur’s Gate 3, but I think it’s a far better simulator of tabletop D&D. The mod support is awesome.

One pepperoni, one mushroom, one cheese. All three have crumbled feta on top.

Nah, I kneaded the dough using a Kitchen-Aid mixer with dough hooks. Then pressed the dough into the oiled pans and let them rise for about an hour before topping.

Dough:

1 1/3 cup warm water
1 tbsp sugar
4 1/2 tsp instant yeast
2 1/2 cup bread flour
3 tbsp vital wheat gluten flour
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp salt

Mix and knead well, divide and press into oiled baking pans, let rise for at least an hour.

Sauce:

5 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped
4 tbsp olive oil
1 can of peeled San Marzano tomatoes
4 tsp dried basil

Sautée the garlic in the oil until it starts to brown. Add the tomatoes and basil. Use a spoon to break up the tomatoes into small chunks. Simmer on medium-low heat until thickened, stirring occasionally.

Pre-heat oven to 550° F, or as high as it’ll go.

Top the dough with shredded Muenster cheese, then add dollops of the sauce and spread it around a little so it mixes with the cheese, and finally whichever toppings you prefer. Make sure the cheese goes all the way to the edges of the pan to get that delicious frica on the outer crust.

Bake for approx. 15 minutes. It helps to switch oven racks halfway through; if you leave it on the bottom rack the whole time, the crust will burn, and if you leave it on the top rack the whole time, the cheese will burn.

I used nonstick metal baking pans for all three of them.

I don’t think lemm.ee allows image uploading, try using an image hosting site.

I’m not too sure… I use the Boost for Lemmy app on mobile and it’s pretty intuitive, it automatically displays linked images.

The default web UI for Lemmy is cancer tbh, I hate it

Firstly… by default, dropping to 0 hit points doesn’t kill a creature. It knocks it unconscious, and it has to start making death saving throws.

Secondly, did you read the spell? It explicitly says the creature is not knocked unconscious as long as the excess damage isn’t enough to reduce its NORMAL form to 0 hit points.

My favorite part was when Nightcrawler said “It’s nightcrawlin’ time!” and nightcrawled all over those guys.

Why are dragonborn excluded from the “many colors” section of the diagram? They have a wider variety of colors than goblins or tieflings. This is a very poor Venn diagram.

Their small, fine scales are usually brass or bronze in color, sometimes ranging to scarlet, rust, gold, or copper-green. … The blood of a particular type of dragon runs very strong through some dragonborn clans. These dragonborn often boast scales that more closely match those of their dragon ancestor—bright red, green, blue, or white, lustrous black, or gleaming metallic gold, silver, brass, copper, or bronze.

I definitely see where you’re coming from. The author excluded dragonborn from the “Many Colors” section, which might lead one to believe that this is a diagram of traits that are commonly expressed in a race despite the official book descriptions. e.g. it’s stereotypically common to make blue tieflings or green goblins despite the official descriptions.

So either the author is wrong for saying dragonborn don’t officially come in many colors, or they’re wrong for saying tieflings don’t officially have tails. Either way, it’s a bad diagram.

I also considered that theory when I was trying to interpret the diagram, but it doesn’t work.

[Tieflings] have thick tails, four to five feet long, which lash or coil around their legs when they get upset or nervous.

What a child. The correct response to a grown adult asking for a fist-fight is to laugh in their face and mock them for their temper tantrum.

For those who might not get the joke, someone gave Rick Santorum’s surname an unpleasant alternate definition in order to shame him for opposing gay rights.

For years, I’d asked God to do something about my noisy neighbor with the barking dog. Joe Pesci straightened that cocksucker out with one visit.

I used to make pizza with regular super market flour, but i recently found some caputo flour in an italian super market around here and gave it a try. I had read about it before but kinda brushed it off, but this flour is seriously just great to make dough with. I bought caputo ‘pizzeria’, they also had some other flavors at...

I’ve been using unbleached bread flour. Either Gold Medal or King Arthur, whichever one I happen to find at the store. It’s definitely better than all-purpose flour, but I don’t have anything else to compare it to.

Tipo 00 flour is hard to find in stores around here.

Thanks for the recommendations, I’m nearing the end of my first campaign and I’ll definitely be installing VIET for my second campaign
