2024.05.17 00:29 blegoo94 29 [M4F] St. Louis, MO / Midwest - Let's make a happy two person family?
Here's the stuff you'd want to know about me before chatting.
I'm child free because I refuse to put another human into this increasingly dark world. I don't want them to have my anxiety or Asperger's. I have an existentialist belief system. So I decided that I want to spend the rest of my life focusing on myself and hopefully my future partner - whoever that may be.
RECENT PIC Yes. Me bald. You can rub my head for good luck. If the cure for baldness is ever discovered, I will hop right on that. I'm 6' tall for you height enthusiasts.
Personality-wise I am pretty boring in all honesty. Being someone who has ADHD, anxiety, and high functioning ASD, you can bet I am not a normal person. On top of that, having spent a freakish amount of time on the uncensored internet through my childhood desensitizing my mind, I'm fairly dead inside. If you can relate or sympathize, that is awesome.
I'm looking for a long term relationship. The kind where we eventually live together on dual income, have date night like every night, and just enjoy each other's love for as long as possible. I am VERY romantic and sappy when I start developing feelings. My love languages are physical touch and quality time spent together.
Hobbies include worrying about my future, browsing reddit, having a nearly empty fridge with a 1 year old jar of kimchi in it because it seemed healthy to buy at the time, and uh what else..? Music, Anime,
Gaming (I was the highest ranks in CSGO AND RL so don't hate the hours yo), Coding, Lockpicking, Antique Restoration, and talking some shmack with the BOYS.
I appreciate many types of humor. Dark, cringe, observational, and surreal are my favs. I'm not easy to offend. And if you want, you can roast me in your opening message.
I like getting out too but I hate doing that alone. That's what you're for. Duh. 😙
I am open to a temporary LDR if your communication game is on point. I will be up front though. When I'm at work it is difficult to text very much because I work in a lead position and am extremely busy except when I'm taking a break. I also work in a highly USDA regulated environment and every time I touch my phone I need to sanitize or change my gloves before I touch anything else. I would make an effort to talk though. I work about 45 hours though so I have plenty of free time after work to spend actual quality time together.
Some things that are definitely important to me:
- Physical attraction. I'm gonna want to see a picture of you sooner rather than later pretty please. 🤗
- Politically liberal. We probably won't get along otherwise 😂.
- Monogamous. You can still call other guys hot on TV though. You can also have a celebrity on your bucket list.
- A sex drive. I'm not looking for someone asexual is all I'm saying.
Please message me only if you are truly interested and willing to date (or hop on a voice or video call if long distance). And don't get me wrong; I am not here to try and force a relationship faster than it needs to. In fact I'm in no rush at all. I just strongly believe that texting alone is not enough to develop into something meaningful.

2024.05.17 00:25 BluebirdNo3434 In Search of a Long-Term YouTube Editor (funny, feminist, reliable)
Hi!
I am a content creator with a quickly growing youtube channel and looking for someone to edit 1-3 videos a week for me. It would be about 1.5-2 hours of footage I would be sending your way, that would just need to be narrowed down to about 45 minutes.
I don't need anything fancy like graphics or music, or subtitles since my audience puts on my videos in the background (like a podcast). The footage is just of me talking, so doesn't require much. I typically do a tiny bit of color correcting, and audio correcting --then just start hacking away at the footage. I make my own thumbnails and everything too.
Here is what I'm looking for:
-someone who knows internet humomemes. I like my videos to be pretty simple editing wise, but definitely fast paced and witty and I make a ton of internet references. So if you wanted to throw in a reference, or jump zoom, or sound effect to make it funnier--by all means, be my guest, lol
-someone reliable with a decent turn around time who is looking for a long term gig
-also, full disclosure I am an extremely feminist, liberal, outspoken gay woman who talks frequently in her videos about human rights, politics, queer topics, and mental health. So definitely someone who is on the same page as me.
-someone who can color correct my footage to make it look warm and full of color (but not too oversaturated)
-someone who can correct my audio (to get rid of as much fuzz, background noise as possible without making my voice sound robotic)
-someone who can help me cut out as many "like"s and "um"s and dead space in general as possible, also anything that's boring or repetitive (I tend to ramble)
If this sounds like something you would be interested in, feel free to DM me with your rate and some examples you might have 😊. Would love to find a long term editor to stick with me through this journey!

2024.05.17 00:13 greenhierogliphics Tuning
I acquired a free handpan that I plan to give to my son. He is not a handpan enthusiast, but he is a musical prodigy on the guitar and drums. Occasionally we have had the opportunity to play pans together, and it has been a blast. So that's my intention with this instrument.
It is a cheap 9 tone D Kurd nitrided steel Chinese pan, however it has a pleasant resonance and all tone fields are surprisingly active. The problem is that 2 of the tone fields are unacceptably sharp in pitch. The ding is mildly sharp, but acceptable. With a lot of players, this would be an acceptable instrument, but my son's ear for music is so keen that trying to play it is driving him crazy. The other 7 notes are within his tolerance for imperfection.
With nothing to lose and everything to gain, I am considering attempting to flatten the pitch of these 2 notes. It seems to me that covering a tone field with a soft rag, placing a rounded carbide bar (I have these as I work at a carbide company) in the center of the tone field and tapping it lightly with a hammer might achieve my desired effect. It's either this or throwing this pan into the dumpster.
Can anyone offer any validation of my idea? Or another procedure that I could do that could possibly deform those 2 fields into a flatter pitch?
PLEASE don't tell me to buy him a quality instrument from a local maker. I already have 2 quality instruments by independent craftsmen that I paid a lot for. I treasure them. They are different scales, so when we try to jam together it's hard to make it work. Neither of us can afford to make an investment in a a true quality instrument for him. This is just for kicks.

2024.05.17 00:06 Different-Ad4862 [GM4F] The Marked Lands - A 5E DnD Campaign
Deeptown was aflame.
A large inferno raged, washing the town square in waves of sweltering heat and spitting sparks. The babbling surge of the River of Dreams was overwhelmed by the roaring of flames; heavy smoke stacks obscuring the light of the thin, silvery moon that stood vigil above the valleyed town. The windowed houses that ensconced the town square, built of oak and plaster, reflected back the orange illumination in haunting visage. Even the incessant warblings of hundreds of cicadas and katydids were drowned out by the sharp snap of stacked burning logs. There was only one sound that trumped all others.
Music.
Thin, bright trilling flutes. Heavy, rumbling drums. A singular lute whose owner took liberties in the finer points of playing. And, more than that, dozens of hesitant yet warm voices sang. They sang of life and love and hope. They sang of Tohlen and Sayn. They sang for the Festival of Plenty. Large stalls packed the corners of the space and, betwixt these stalls, a man from a group of pack-laden individuals cried out, "Trader, merchant, mender! Vendor, gossip, letter handler!" The merchants, misty-eyed and smiling wide, trudged down the road with graying travel packs nestled between peaked shoulders. "I've got gut and needle and knives and wines! Water for travel and open to haggle!" Each flat-footed step upon the ground lent itself to a grand chorus; a jumbled mess of metals, glassware, and other oddities heralding their arrival. Nervous lovers made wide, clumsy steps around one fire. In the center, a hurried stage had been constructed and was lit by the four bonfires. A troupe of performers acted out some bawdy play or another, making indecent jokes and enrapturing their growing audience.
At the height of this reverie, miles and miles away, a group of robed figures rode hard and fast with a purpose that would cause a few wandering paths and destinies to begin to intertwine…

2024.05.17 00:05 PrivadoDeAmor 25 [M4F] London, UK only - Seeking a Weekend Date and More
As I navigate through the days, I realize that love has eluded me. It's been a challenge. The last time I fell for someone and mustered the courage to ask them out, I ended up terribly ditched. I've explored almost all the dating apps, but nothing has worked out. I've been trying Reddit for so long, but luck seems to be elusive. I'm yearning for a meaningful connection and the thrill of a perfect date. At 25, my journey to find love and companionship has led me here. No luck so far, and my username, PrevadoDeAmor, says it all—it means deprived of love. How many more posts will it take to find the love of my life? Let's see!
A bit about me: I'm an introverted (INFP) individual—honest, caring, and respectful. Catch me in my downtime, grooving to music or diving into fantastical tales from movies and TV shows. Oh, and here's the twist: I can turn any culinary experience into an epic food quest! Challenge accepted?
Now, let's talk about life's curveballs. I've had my fair share of adventures, including a tango with that ever-so-mysterious partner called depression. But rest assured, my commitment to honesty is unwavering, and I'm not shying away from keeping it real.
Matters of the heart? Think of me as a wise philosopher: love knows no boundaries, and I'm open to meeting people from all walks of life. Older women seem to get me better, so don't be surprised if I'm up for dating someone a bit more experienced.
Let's make this adventure real. If you're a charming soul, exploring London's streets with curiosity and a desire for a memorable connection, this is your invitation! I am free for the entire next week, so I'm open to a date as well. We'll explore art galleries, savor new cuisines, and embark on a journey of meaningful moments together.
And here's the clincher: Share a quirky detail about your interests or suggest a favorite activity. Let's make our days brighter and our hearts a little lovelier. No need to wait for a knight in shining armor—this humble quester is eagerly anticipating our meeting! Shoot me a message with a fun fact about yourself, and let's craft our romantic tale together.
Eagerly anticipating our meeting! Thanks a bunch for taking the time to read through this journey of words! I am free for the next whole week, so I am open for a date as well.

2024.05.17 00:03 KeevinPoker This is how much money I made on YouTube for poker vlogging
Thought that some of you may be interested.
Context: I started my YouTube channel in September 2023, vlogging my poker sessions. Always loved poker, enjoy growing the game, and was always interested in videography/filmmaking/editing etc., so I just thought that this would make a great passion project. I knew about youtube monetization but never really aspired to become a big youtuber or anything. I am still a small channel - basically a nobody atm. I thought that even if I ever get monetized (I honestly thought it could take years), it would be nice to just earn a few bucks a month (free coffee!) for doing something I enjoy. Starting out was tough. I'd get negative messages of hate for seemingly no good reason. Some would comment on how much they hate my music (I write/produce original music used in the channel). This subreddit also seems to particularly hate vloggers, which I've learned with first hand experience lol. But I also got a lot of positive comments of support and encouragement, which really helped to keep me going. Recently, I posted a video "How to beat low stakes poker - 7 tips to crush 1/3" and that vid gave my channel the boost to meet the youtube monetization requirements (1000 subscribers and 4000 watch hours). I just uploaded a vid to share my earnings for the first 10 days of monetization, and thought that some of you might be interested in those numbers as well.
Duration: 10 days
Views: 2.7k
Revenue earned: $11.44
Average RPM (Revenue per 1000 views): $4.17
Time it took me to get monetized: Around 7 months (25 videos)
If you were ever curious how much a poker vlogger or youtuber makes from youtube, you can use these figures as a bit of reference. It's definitely not any conclusive data though. The RPM fluctuates radically. If interested, below is the link to my vid where I go over the numbers and share some more stats from my backend, briefly explaining the youtube partner program. Peace and love and run good!

2024.05.16 23:57 JonGeg How Music Propaganda was Weaponized in WW2
Hey everyone! I recently did a deep dive on how music was used as propaganda and a from of torture during ww2. I researched the history of how Germany became the "People of Music". A lot of musicologists in Germany worked with the Nazis' and tied this idea into their claimed proof of the Aryan race. Which they used to justify the holocaust. They used music as a means of torture in many ways to control everyone they occupied. The Allies also weaponized music with intelligence agencies in different ways as a form of anti propaganda that was very effective against the Third Reich.
I just made a video showing how it all played out. Feel free to check it out and share any thoughts and feedback

2024.05.16 23:56 EnthusiasmCapital410 AITAH for threatening to go no-contact with my mom again over her trying to protect my son from my "lifestyle"?
The first time we stopped talking was her decision. I (43M) grew up living a very cushy life in the suburbs of Chicago. I had certain expectations I was expected to fulfill, and they didn't include me moving to New Jersey when I was 19. During a family trip to Alpine, I found myself in the less affluent areas thanks to access to a car and an intense desire to dive into the music scene there. My world kind of shifted on its axis that summer, and I knew I couldn't leave. They didn't mind me initially sticking around - I already had a gap year planned, so this didn't derail my plans too much. It was later when I told them I had decided to go to university in Jersey instead of Chicago that our relationship really broke down.
I was very abruptly on my own in the financial department for the first time, but it was probably the best thing for me. I developed an actual work ethic and began living a life that wasn't being funded and planned out by someone else. It was freeing. Our later reconciliation was mostly due to my son, Brooklyn (15M) being born.
There's a lot about my early years in Jersey that my mom doesn't approve of. Some of it is justified since I was 19 and I made some misguided decisions. Some of it... not so much. For necessary context: The first person I ever befriended here is someone we'll call Matt (40M). We met at a concert during one of my first nights out. He was 16, technically too young to even be in the venue. We dated for two years, and I got exceptionally close with his entire family. I crashed in their basement when my parents cut me off. It was a very pivotal romantic relationship in my life, but also a familial one. All of them - Matt himself, his parents, and his brother - were lifelines for me, and Brooklyn adores them. Matt and his brother are still some of my best friends today, and his parents are second parents to me.
This all brings us to the current conflict: Brooklyn's birthday was last week. My mom flew in for it. There's always tension whenever my parents are around Matt or his family, but it was ramped up to an 11 this time. She continually made passive-aggressive comments all afternoon, but one in particular pushed me over the edge. She remarked something about Brooklyn almost being the same age as Matt was when we met, and how she hopes I would never be a bad enough parent to let him be involved with someone older.
I took her outside and told her she was embarrassing herself. She replied that she was just trying to protect Brooklyn and not let him lead the same "lifestyle" I did. That could mean a lot of things and they're all pretty offensive, but the use of that word made it feel like she was attacking me for being bisexual since it has connotations against the LGBT community. I immediately went on the defense and told her that we had gone years without talking before, and I could easily do it again.
I'm second guessing myself now. Looking back, I feel like I reacted too harshly. I'm certainly not letting my kid date anyone 18+, so she has a point. I don't know.

2024.05.16 23:54 Weirderthanweird69 Generalists vs Specialists
| https://preview.redd.it/gckb0krdxu0d1.png?width=1140&format=png&auto=webp&s=b510d0e7a13cf199013931064ca9c881588fa4b2 Owen is a generalist since his body can survive a lot in eating challenges, combat challenges, survival challenges, anything except intelligence challenges. Gwen is a generalist since she's good at everything except maintaining relationships which doesn't matter for challenges. Heather won immunity so many times, she is a generalist having the brains, the flexibility, the body, etc. Duncan is a generalist. Like Gwen, he sucks at maintaining relationships, but doesn't factor to how he's the lone MVP of the Killer Bass, the only Killer Bass to win a total drama season (sorry Geoff I don't count RR) Leshawna got the sociability, the fighting power, can eat a lot, they really packed a lot of good qualities in this character. Geoff is a generalist, being calm minded, strong, just Owen without the tankiness. Still good at eating challenges though. Izzy is a generalist, she knows how to survive, how to fight Chef, good at so many challenges, her loco personality is what brings her down. Bridgette is also a generalist. Like Duncan said, she's good at sports, fairly intelligent, a threat in the game. Just Bridgette sucks at survival and eating challenges Courtney is a generalist. I forgot to bring up, generalists don't tend to be dominant in a specific area. Abusive leadership and getting Duncan, DJ, and Geoff in a Killer Bass alliance to snipe Eva, Sadie, and Tyler isn't part of the challenges. Beth is a generalist. She is so average, she wetn under the radar in total drama action, and somehow made it to the final 2. Cody is a generalist. He is crafty and quick thinking, but I am not sure he has a specific dominant strength. He is ok in challenges. As for the specialists we have DJ, he's dominant in cooking challenges and would have gotten immunity and cut 8 minutes of the TDA pet episode if he didn't quit early on. Lindsay, she is good in fashion, fairly intelligent when dealing with make up, but a deadweight everywhere else. She is more than a dumbass, but she still is a dumbass. Trent, he's only good in music. He is fairly mediocre in challenges being a pain magnet, and would have rocked total drama world tour if his personality wasn't killed in total drama action. Eva, outside of beating the living crap out of any living thing, including sasquatches, and having the strength of hulk, she is a nuisance. A nuisance in the sense she'll gamer rage and use her hulk strength on her own team. Harold, he has a couple mad skills in his toolkit. These mad skills have been seen. He's meh in so many types of challenges if he doesn't have mad skills in them. But he becomes a force to be reckoned with if his mad skills are usable. He is the closest the specialists have to a generalist. Katie and Sadie. I don't even know if they thrive in something aside from team motivation. They would've rocked in the ridonculous race. Tyler. He's got wicked strong fingers. These fingers have saved his team from death in TDWT. Aside from being a pain magnet and always being injured, he has his jock moments. But they're rare, and when they happen, it can be game breaking. Justin, sexy man. His only thing is his looks, he's bout to charm anyone with those pupils(Caleb should've gotten pupils in his design). But outside of looks, Justin is a deadweight as seen in total drama action. Injuries make him a free vote. Noah, the big brain. He is good at solving puzzles, figuring out who is manipulating who way before others can find out, can outsmart many people. It's just Noah is too unlikable for people to even see how smart he can be. Ezekiel, the guy with wasted potential. He probably has the aim of a hawk with his hunting skills(ignore the fact he accidentally shot his mom), and knows 8 languages. I think the Killer Bass would've won dodgebrawl if he didn't get the first boot. He's a dead weight everywhere else though, making mistakes with his words and getting punished for it. submitted by Weirderthanweird69 to Totaldrama [link] [comments] |
2024.05.16 23:47 JonGeg How Musicology Influenced WW2
Hey everyone! I recently did a deep dive on how music was used during ww2. I researched the history of how Germany became the "People of Music". A lot of musicologists in Germany worked with the Nazis' and tied this idea into their claimed proof of the Aryan race. Which they used to justify the holocaust. They used music as a means of torture in many ways to control everyone they occupied. The Allies also weaponized music with intelligence agencies in different ways as a form of anti propaganda that was very effective against the Third Reich.
I just made a video showing how it all played out. Feel free to check it out and share any thoughts and feedback

2024.05.16 23:43 LordXamon Vanilla-friendly mod recommendations. QoL, performance, retextures, and more!
Let me share my 3000h of modded wisdom with you, my fellow vanilla comrades. My attempt here is to provide you with as many as possible improvements to the base game while keeping the style, balance, and content as vanilla as possible. As they say, when it works the best is when you don't realize it is there. I guarantee you that after playing for a while with these, you will no longer be able to tell what's from the base game and what's not.
You don't know how to mod? Maybe this
very basic guide will help. Please, note that many mods come with options to tune up your experience. It is recommended you give them a look.
You can find the steam collection
here. Be aware that some of these mods require the DLCs. You don't have the DLCs? Just don't use the mod.
Dependencies:
- Harmony + Huglibs. Required by so many mods, you may as well be done with it and always have them.
- Vanilla Expanded Framework. While not as radically necessary as the previous ones, it's still a dependency fairly common. And this one actually does cool things on its own, like loading new modded factions without having to start a new game.
- XML Extensions. You won't be able to access the options of some mods without this.
Performance
- Dub performance analyzer. Enable the optimizations and override options, you can ignore everything else. If you want to disable alerts, use rocketman.
- Rocketman. By default, it should be good enough. This mod also allows to disable alerts you may don't care about, like, dunno, tattered apparel or unhappy nudity. It is recommended to run adaptive move occasionally (in stat cache settings).
- Performance Optimizer. More hacker magic. If you don't like the UI changes, you can disable them in the options. This mod does more performance stuff aside from that, so use it anyway!
- Performance Fish. You will have to install this mod manually, since it's not available in the workshop. You will also need to install its dependencies, Fishery and Prepatcher. Please, be aware that at the present there's an issue in which linking storages crashes the game. However, this can be prevented by disabling "TryFindBestBetterStoreCellFor" in the options.
Minor changes
- Optimization Meats. Unless you really want dozens of different meat types for some weird role-play reason, this mod will reduce the bloat on your kitchens.
- Better Animal Tab
- Better Info Card
- Conduit Deconstruct. A button to exclusively dismantle power conduits.
- Disable Automatically Select Travel Supplies
- Improved Need Indicator
- Map Preview. You can reroll as well!
- Prepare Landing. You can search world tiles matching your conditions. Goes great with Map Preview.
- Medical Tab. An easy way to overview your colony health.
- More Harvest Designators! e.g. harvest only fully growth plants.
- ModDiff. Great improvement of the mod mismatch screen.
- Pharmacist Temporary Update. Instead of always using the best medicine, now your pawns can use the appropriate medicine for the situation. No longer will they spent glitterworld meds on scratches!
- Smart Turret Covering. Fixes an issue with turret covers.
- PawnTargetFix. So that the autotarget prioritizes the closest enemy.
- Poisoned Food Stack Fix (Fix). Fixes an issue with meal stacks.
- Priority Treatment Ressurected. Doctors will finally prioritize keeping your pawns alive over taking a nap. Disable the option that prevents injured pawns from performing surgery, it has issues.
- QualityBuilder. You can set up a target level for furniture, and your pawns will reconstruct it until it's achieved. If I remember correctly, it's enabled by default for all new furniture? You can turn that off in options.
- RPG Style Inventory Revamped. Much better looking inventory.
- Replace Stuff. Allows to directly replace buildings, without having to deconstruct first.
- Research Tree. A better research tree.
- RimHUD. The best mod of the whole list, it will save you A TON of clicks.
- RimSaves. Overhaul of the save menu.
- Show Known Techprints on the trade screen.
- Show mechanoid weapons on the info screen.
- Smarter Construction. No more babysitting pawns when building walls.
- Stack gap. By default, pawns constantly refill storages. With this mod, you can configure it so that storages are refiled only when they're empty.
- Sun Lamp Honesty. Fixes an issue with sun lamps
- Just Put It Over There. Traders will deliver the merchandise, instead of dropping it on the ground.
- Trade Ships Drop Spot. Mark the spot in which orbital traders will deliver the merchandise, instead on whenever they feel like it. Doesn't work inside animal pens.
- Trading Options. Configure how frequent you want the traders to be.
- WVC. More work modes for the mechanitor.
- Save Settings. Allows you to save and load storage, production, and clothes settings. Works cross-save!
- No Max Bills. Removes the bill cap on workbenches.
- Better ground-penetrating scanner
- Colored deep resources
- Common Sense. Feel free to configure however you like it. I prefer it like this.
- Dubs Mint Menus. Improvements to a bunch of menus.
- Better Pawn Control. Improved management policies.
- Animals Logic. A lot of useful animal-related improvements. Disable the meat option if you're using Optimization Meats.
- Non uno Pinata. Pawns don't drop items when downed. Configurable.
- Bulk Smelting will save you precious time.
- Stonecutting Extended. The same as the previous mod, but for stones.
- Electric Stonecutting Table. To speed up the stonecutting even more.
- Faster Smoothing, a must for all mountain/underground out there.
- Do Your F****** Research. You can order pawns to research.
- Go the Fork to Sleep. You can order pawns to sleep.
- Meal Radius. Configure how far pawns will search for a table to eat.
- Home radius. Configure the size of the automatic home area.
- Smarter Visitors. Visitors will leave if things get dangerous.
- Custom Guilt Duration. Executions in vanilla are a pain because the guilty status goes away too fast. Now you can configure it.
- Dress Patients. Allows dressing of downed pawns.
- Way Better Romance
- Hunters Use Melee
- Injured Carry. Allows to rescue not downed pawns, no longer you have to wait for the bleeding to down them.
- Not My Fault. The player is no longer responsible for unrelated deaths on the map.
- Deep Storage + Simple Storage. Improves stockpile management.
- Pick Up And Haul. Improved hauling.
- While You're Up. Complement for the previous mod. Keep in mind that these two mods will trivialize part of the challenge by freeing a lot of time from your colonists. Just, dunno, turn up the difficulty a notch or something.
- Trading Spot. Marks where you want traders to stop on your map. It's a must if you use a desired path mod (I don't know if they have been updated to 1.5 yet).
- Vanilla Base Generation Expanded. Improved NPC base generation.
- Cut plants before building
- Psychic Harmonizer Lag Fix
- Fellow Ideology players, you're welcome.
Mayor changes
- Dubs Bad Hygiene. Plumbing!
- Vanilla Temperature Expanded. Lot of useful temperature-related buildings, as well as proxy heat, a very cool mechanic. Some buildings are redundant with the previous mod, just don't research the ones that you don't want.
- Death Rattle + Biosculpter Patch + Life Support. Changes the behavior of mortal wounds so they're not instakills.
- Dynamic Flooding. Inundations!
- Some Things Float. I recommend disabling the chance of pawns loosing their footing.
- Layered Wall Destruction. Walls aren't just destroyed, they become debris. Note that there's an issue in which the debris will spawn home areas.
- Yayo's Combat. Combat overhaul. You can disable the ammunition system if it's not your thing.
- Character Editor. Allows you to edit and save/load pawns.
- RunAndGun. Allows to use guns while moving, with penalties to accuracy. Don't enable the dual wield or search and destroy modules, they won't work.
- EPOE Forked. Fills in the gaps of surgery content in the base game. I recommend disabling the additional workstations and enabling direct crafting only. Less micromanagement, more fun.
Balance
Content
Atmospheric changes
Bonus: comics! And the occasional animation. I noticed newbies aren't aware of these, so I linked the profiles of all the artists I could remember. Sorry if I missed someone.

2024.05.16 23:34 Pyronetics5467 Looking for more songs like this
I’m looking for more songs like “they’re only human” from the death note musical. Attached a link to it if you haven’t heard it. I love male/female villain duo songs but have a very hard time finding them (also male/female villain duet songs are a plus)
If anyone has any recommendations I’d be very grateful!
