TRANSFORMERS ROBOTS IN DISGUISE! Here is an all-new KIDS REACT featuring the 80s version of TRANSFORMERS!
This is the face of manchild fuckboy tears.
so
we have this app called toogoodtogo where restaurants/cafes/bakeries/hotels and so on sell their leftovers for really cheap to reduce foodwaste
i got all of this for €4 from starbucks
bless
The America version is called FoodForAll
I love TooGoodToGo all of this sushi cost me £3.50 (the chinese food cost me £3.59)
YOOOOOOO, they’re formalizing this?!?!
I used to do community service at a community breakfast, we’d go to the local Safeway and get all their stale bread, the local bakery for their stale baked goods and whatnot.
They throw away so much food it’s ridiculous, I’m glad someone finally created a program like this!
The American app isn’t available everywhere but if you’re broke in NY or Boston, check it out!
The US app logo currently looks like this and was last updated 3 weeks ago (as of January 25th 2020)
TooGoodToGo is available in many European countries, including the UK, much of Scandinavia, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland, Italy and the Iberian peninsula.
Just tried installing it and it didn’t have Finland as an option, it’s kind of surprising that it hasn’t caught on here yet because it feels like people would be all over it
I think the finnish version closest to that is called ResQ Club
thank you! Makes sense if there’s something already filling the niche!
the app says it’s not available for ppl outside of NYC or Boston though
Took advantage of the quiet that came with this latest snowfall and set up my first real altar. It’s small, but features a lot of handmade items and personal knickknacks I’ve collected over the years. I’m so excited about it 🖤
Mr. The Frog we all agreed that a celebrity is not a people
The Muppets have one (1) collective brain cell between them and 90% of the time, Kermit has it.
Ok but idgaf about a logo, i wanna see the damn system lol
I mean thats cool but thats still not the official system. Thats just a dev kit. Yall remember how the PS4 dev kit looked??
Remember the Wii dev kit???
Saurial
Playable dinosaur people. How… how much more do I even have to say?? Hailing back to 2nd edition but being printed as a playable race up to 2002, the Saurial umbrella race encompasses four different subtypes, each resembling a different dinosaur (or in the Flyers a non-dinosaur pterasaur). Far from the alien lizardfolk, the Sauriels are much more intelligent and are even usually on the side of good. Plus, imagine some additional subspecies taking advantage of other branches of the Mesozoic tree of life…
Loxo
Anyone who’s played Magic: the Gathering and has seen more than a few Loxodon cards will probably already get the appeal of these guys, who were first introduced in 1991 and kept going till 2004. Resembling orc to ogre sized bipedal elephants, these pachyderm powerhouses have the additional benefit of having two trunks, each of which possessing fully developed fingers of its own. While perhaps slightly disturbing, having an extra set of limbs on top of a mighty body and a pair of tusks makes for an intimidating and surprisingly well rounded race. Though maybe the trunk could be reduced down to one… it is a little disturbing to look at.
Mul
Here’s the half-human race I don’t seem to hear much of these days. Originally made for the post-apocalyptic Dark Sun setting, Muls (originally produced like mule but nowadays in universe that seems more derogatory) are what you get when a dwarf and a human make a baby. With a dwarf’s powerful frame and the height of a human, these powerfully built individuals are a force to be reckoned with both on the battlefield and in the arena. Why should half elfs and half orcs get all the limelight?
Fey’ri/Wispling/Maeluth/Tanarukk
Turns out humans aren’t the only ones who occasionally do the horizontal tango with demons. Hailing from the elven, halfling, dwarven, and orcish races respectively, each of these tiefling variants have some kind of demonic heritage. And lets face it, these guys look amazing for it. Funnily enough the elven and orcish variants came later than the dwarven and halfling variants, with the former two being used as recently as 2006. My personal favorite here is the tanarukk. Just look at that magnificent demonic son of a bitch.
Swanmay/Selkie
I fully admit, this is partially cause a friend of mine has a swanmay character and I think its a really cool look. Also I’m a massive sucker for selkie mythology for some reason. Swanmays and selkies are sort of in the same boat: characters that have an innate ability to transform into an animal, respectively a swan and a seal. Both have their roots in classical folklore, and both first appeared in 1983′s Monster Manual II. While the selkie doesn’t seem to have immediate roots as a playable race, the swanmay does, though it got a little mixed up as a prestiege class for a while. In any case I think both would be interesting additions to a modern campaign.
Kender
Hey folks, ever want to play a thief but think to yourself “gee, I really don’t want to get caught up in that negative baggage that tends to crop up from stealing stuff”. Well have I got a race for you! First thought up for the Dragonlance setting, Kender tend to resemble children with aging facial features, usually growing around 4 feet tall. They’re literally fearless, being immune to even supernaturally induced fear (save for that inspired by Lord Soth apparently). They also have an… interesting view of ownership. In that they don’t really get it. Things are basically viewed as communal among Kender, and its normal to see them walk off with a “borrowed” object that catches their fancy. Ironically they don’t see much use in currency, overlooking gold pieces for more fascinating bits of material goods. A lesser known twist on a role usually filled by halflings.
Mongrelfolk
When the human urge to bone monstrous things gets a little out of hand, you get these, and don’t they just look fantastic? Though Mongrelfolk have had their origins re-imagined in fifth edition, I like the original one where humanoid teratophilia just kind of got out of control. I also think this chimerical race could have fascinating implications as a player race in terms of customization. Maybe have tables you have to roll for to see what each limb or appendage looks like, conferring benefits or just unique appearances depending on where the dice land. Not a charismatic people perhaps, but definitely one with many possibilities.
Alaghi
Badass, thy name is Alaghi. A fearsome cross between a yeti and a werewolf, the Alaghi hail all the way back to second edition, and have in fact been a player race before twice over before. Despite their rather bestial appearance, these creatures can be benevolent, especially the loner ones. I don’t know how much else I can say but just look at this guy! Who wouldn’t want to play as one?
Think I missed a race? Add it on!
Dude I want to play a swanmay druid, like, Immediately 🦢
According to Dictionary.com, an altar is “an elevated place or structure at which religious rites are performed or on which sacrifices are offered to gods, ancestors, etc.“ As a witch, an altar isn’t absolutely necessary, but having one is incredibly useful. An altar can be a place to store the tools you use in your craft, or a space set aside for working on spells or even just meditating. If you work with a deity, your altar can serve as a space dedicated to that being and communicating or working with them. This post is meant to serve as a short and detailed guide to setting up your altar.
The easiest way to decide how you’ll decorate your altar is by finding what symbolizes your deity. What colors is your deity associated with? Are certain plants or natural elements used to represent them? Let’s say you’re an Aphrodite devotee. You might use pink or red candles for their association with love and passion. Seashells are often used in paintings of Aphrodite, so collect some from the beach and scatter them on your altar if you wish. Rose petals are also a good choice. In my case, finding decorations was easy. Crosses, crucifixes, rosaries, and devotional candles are the main elements on my altar. The important thing about the decorations you choose is that they correspond to your deity. And these don’t have to be traditional correspondences because the strongest ones can be the ones you’ve come up with yourself. For example, say you have a really special candle that reminds you of your deity and you want to put it on your altar. Does it have to be a specific color or scent that corresponds with them? No. If it has some special connection to your deity, that’s a good enough reason to have it on your altar! That’s a personal correspondence, which is just as valid or important as any traditional correspondence you might find.
Altars are most commonly used as a space to leave offerings for your deities. As a witch, you might also choose to use this space for any work or communication with them, or just as a space for performing your craft. I use mine for both. Before my altar was my altar, it was a desk sitting in the corner of my room collecting dust. Now I decorate it for sabbats, and use the drawers to hold my herbs, jars, candles, grimoire, crystals, and my other witchy stuff. I usually perform spells there. When I want to do something honoring my deity, I leave my phone and other distractions aside and sit at my altar. Whether it be having a cup of tea with Him or just lighting a candle and remembering His presence, it’s useful to have a space dedicated to your deity and your craft, and only that.
Of course, I haven’t forgotten all of you witches that don’t work with deities! Decorating your altar is basically the same process I’ve explained above. Make it a space for your tools and your craft! Arrange them based on how you use them, or just in a way you think looks cool! Decorate based on the seasons and upcoming sabbaths you might want to celebrate! I made my altar right before Samhain, and decorating with what you have or what you can find is so much fun. Set out candles and crystals that correspond with the upcoming sabbath! For example, I have lots of tangerine quartz and carnelian. I arranged those and Halloween themed candles on my altar for all of October, and threw in fallen leaves and the apple for a touch of the season.
And below is a picture of my altar decorated for Yule. I arranged crystals and candles with corresponding colors, pine cones for a seasonal touch, and the tea was my offering that day.
If you’re a secret witch or just don’t have the space to dedicate, there are also alternatives to this. I’ve known witches to use Pinterest boards as digital altars by collecting pictures that remind them of their deity or their connection with their deity. Mystak ( @ikilledamanimeanwhat ) even used the Neko Atsume app to make an altar for Apollo! If you’re particularly close to nature, you could even make an altar outdoors. An outdoors altar would definitely be affected by the weather or any critters nearby, but it’s possible. When it comes to altars, the sky is the limit. Whether it be a drawer in your room or an entire room, an altar in a box you carry with you, or a space under a tree outside, you can make an altar out of almost anything! This is all of the advice I have for you. Thanks for reading and happy altar decorating!
