Current Events / Re: Milton's Coming

If you haven't already heard, there's a big fat guy out in the Gulf of Mexico named, 'Milton' who's gonna make things miserable for all the good people of Fla. for the next couple of days. Right now he's scheduled to waddle his fat ass just to the north of me about dark tonight. We're as ready as we can be but almost certainly will lose power for several days...and hopefully nothing else. So I'll get back to you Grogs when I'm back online. If not, then I'll see you all on the Other Side. 

Good luck bro. Stay safe.

The above-mentioned Kickstarter won't reach the minimum funding goal in the two days remaining. I was hoping for 60+ backers, and got nowhere close.

I might relaunch next year on a different platform (BackerKit or the like). If you'd like to get notified when that happens, please sign up to the mailing list for my VTT apps.

Shadow Empire and hog hunting irl. I am going to try to get in some Sins2 and Manor Lord.

Do you make hog bacon? Yummy

My wife has a couple of times. It takes more effort than we give it to do it right. Cleaning a wild hog, especially a big one, is a LOT of work. I usually settle for just the backstraps and tenderloins. In a smaller hog we might take the other parts a well. The hams grind up nicely for sausage. The biggest plus is just killing the darn critters to protect the deer and turkeys....and fencing and feeders and other thongs you would never expect hogs would be interested in tearing up. I really pity folks dependent on crops.

Well, hm: South Korea's Defense Minister claims it's likely that Nork troops are fighting in Ukraine and even that they've taken casualties, some of which are fatalities. Presumably if that's true, that would be arty troops?

Not sure what his evidence for that is, or how his claim has been graded by other Defense Intel groups. Note to self, see if ISW has an opinion on that...

I think Putin and Kim see this as a win-win. Putin gets more "meat" for his "meat attacks," and he doesn't have to worry about their wives complaining. Kim gets cash, less mouths to feed and valuable battle experience for his troops.

Of course of the laws of strongman paranoia say that Kim eventually grows to distrust the guys he sends. These guys are going to be seeing how well Ukrainians and Russians live, compared to what Kim and his goons provide. The troops might get the idea that their whole government is just a ponzi scheme.

Agreed. Sad news indeed.
