New custom map for Crusader Kings just dropped?

For me the lack of voice acting isn’t a detriment. Far from it. I much prefer the walls of text to cinematic stuffs.

Always be looking for a new job, you never know when a new boss arrives and makes it horrible.

Home (subscribed) and Local set to Hot

All set to Top Six Hours. When doomscrolling I on occasion set it to either Scaled or Active

Have yet to play it but Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous does have some similar themes. If you haven’t looked at it already give it a glance.

Walks around town

Bike ride

Gym

Walk along the stream looking at the mallards

Trail running (as soon as I get started with it…)

Park/square bench, filled thermos and something to read

And someone will have to go on an Orphic journey to bring back his lost lover.

Europe’s free speech is far more free than the US

But not Europes FREEZEPEACH™! And freezepeach is all that matters

99% of what I drink is Ceylon and my supplier is my local middle eastern stores. Pick up pound of loose leaves every now and then, brand varies.

Not as much reading but I’m taking much of my cues regarding mythology from Red over at Overly Sarcastic Productions (https://www.youtube.com/@OverlySarcasticProductions).

Two related videos
Wrath of Demeter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhhANZKerug
Hades and Persephone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ac5ksZTvZN8

What I especially like about their content is that there is plenty of source critique. Things are seldom presented as “this is the exact truth”. Mentioned in the video about Hades and Persephone is “we don’t know the original myth” which I find telling of much of their mythology work.

Demeter is up there.

Her baby father (Zeus), aka the big douchebag, married away her daughter Persephone to his brother Hades. Patriarchy does what patriarchy does. The brothers were aware neither Persephone nor Demeter would approve of the deal so Hades had to kidnap Persephone and force the deal upon her.

So Persephone were abducted and her mother were beyond herself with worry about her absence. Once Demeter learnt about the deal she threw the hissy fit that all hissy fits are measured against. Plants stopped growing, livestock stopped giving birth and the world soon was in a cataclysmic state. Behold a mother’s justified wrath and tremble.

Douchebag-in-chief was forced to negotiate but wouldn’t anull the whole deal. Only that Persephone would spend half her time with her mother (spring, summer) and the other half with the husband forced upon her (autumn, winter).

I’ve got a new camping hammock that I want to go out and try out. With a bit of rain during the week the fire danger will drop because a little coze fire is awesome. Not sure how much it will drop but at least it will drop enough for the camping stove. I need my fresh coffee damn you.

And yes we have had a fire ban since last week. Probably lifted now after a good rainy day.

Don’t have your mouth write checks your ass can’t cover

Why is mercury ranked second despite having the same number of medals (zero) as the unranked ones? Who did Mercury pay off for this “mistake” to happen? Is big Mercury subtly trying to influence our perception of them?

Sports and politics go hand-in-hand.

Firm supporter of local stores and businesses. It also does help that I have a few good places in walking distance and a healthy city centre. So if I want and weather permitting I can sit on their patio and wave to acquaintances.

And now I’m back to looking at steel (and titanium) adventure hardtails…

I enjoy it and the extra scrolling doesn’t bother me. Well it bothers me much less that the information it provides.

If you can afford to save then I highly recommend you to save up for classes. Not just for the exercise aspect but (primary) as a safety measure.

Floating around on ones back is seriously underrated. You just drift around a bit, relax and disconnect for a bit.

Arrow up. Multiple times.
