American retard here... how much pumpkin do you use? 1 butternut or equivalent? Here we have easiest access to 15oz (425g) or 29oz (822g) cans and I have no idea how to figure out how much to use.

Don't forget that he out-sexed the magical sex fairies and then out-sexed the all girl sex ninjas. He was the best at sex, better than anyone.

The Incal, by Jodorowsky and Mobius. Book five, 'The Fifth Essence' especially, but the whole series really. After Mobius was hired by Besson to do design work for The Fifth Element, he joined Jodorowsky's plagarism lawsuit against Besson (which they lost).

Fantastic books, probably Jodorowsky's best comics. Valerian and Laureline are like an unacknowledged shadow cast over much of modern sci-fi. Star Wars, adaptations of Dune, and half the shit that ripped them off can be traced back to Valerian, but the Incal is a clear inspiration for The Fifth Element.

I've really got to read that again, it's a book that leaves an impression.

Ever read The Screwtape Letters? Mostly passed over for some reason or other...

S.T. Joshi and Thomas Ligotti probably fit that criteria well.

There's a 'local difficulty' which slowly increases over time. The higher it gets the greater likelyhood for lots of things like numbers of mobs able to pick up and hold items/weapons... don't know if it effects the fishing loot tables but it probably (?) does.

I'd always taken it as a diminutive of simper/simpering.

TPB still has seeded a few collections of Valerian, Blueberry, XIII, and Asterix (picked up a few months back when a thread here about french comics caught my interest).

Takes a little digging but some stuff is to be found. I was only looking for english editions, not sure what if anythihng's there in french.

So I decided to watch the Hobbit edit tonight and it's still trash. Only ever saw the first one so not sure how much is changed, but I know I hate it.

Also weird timing I just got a copy of Paradise but haven't seen Prometheus or Covenant, was curious to watch the fan edit first just of curiosity.

Recently watched the 'spicediver' fan edit of David Lynch's Dune and it was a million times better than that dumpster fire of a film. Planning on watching a hobbit trilogy fan edit called the tolkien cut soon too.

Do not buy a new high efficiency washing machine if you can in any way avoid it. Bought one new in 2016 and it died in 2021. Buy used/learn to repair what you can and keep that 30 year old ge chugging as long as you can.

Is there a proper name for this, or a source? Trying to look around with no luck.

I liked the first 2 Witcher books, 3 through 7 (the Witcher saga) i found terribly disappointing.

Elric books were fantastic when i read them 20 odd years ago.

That's based off the old Terrafirmacraft modpack for minecraft (1.7 era iirc). Very naturallistic approach to tech and crafting I remember liking about it.
