Fan art question

James Marsters is coming to a comic con in my area (motor city comic con) next month and I'd like to get a picture designed for him to sign and not use AI. Does anyone have a good recommendation for it?

So is this just dollar store simulator?

I really want to like this series since it's such a fun concept but I've skipped entire chapters because I don't need to hear about the myriad of relics he gets that he doesn't plan to use ever. I think he's spent more time describing the store than being out trying to get home, or at least find a way for those who want to leave be able to.

It's a fine line between adventurer and store manager, right now I feel like he's on the wrong side of it for far too long. As an audiobook listener I have to go through 2 minutes of his character sheet recap each time he does something and while 2 minutes isn't much it's tough to hear over and over.

Hopefully it becomes more about the backrooms and less about the dollar store.

I really think these types of "deals" are wrong

doesn't this defeat the purpose of stopping food waste? This is just selling products at a discount to get people to come to the store. Maybe it's just me, I dunno. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Platform job question

So I'm having a "discussion" about this platform we're building. We've cut and welded everything together and are working on the guardrail right now but my boss is trying to tell me it doesn't need to be inspected by anyone and I'm trying to tell him he's wrong.

I tried showing him 1910.22 but he's not buying it, any advice?

Phoenix lounge question

I've honestly never been to a centurion lounge because Detroit doesn't have one and i usually just do the Sky Club. But I want to visit one and was wondering if anyone has experience in PHX about if it's worth bothering with and if it's better to go late or early in the day. I'll be leaving on a Wednesday if that matters.

Thanks for any help

If Ted is too expensive to make how will they manage DCC?

They only have to do one CGI bear and it's already marvel level cost minute per minute, what's the plan to keep costs down when they have so much more to CGI for DCC? Not to mention the amount of actors that are required even if they get unknowns for scale.

Joey can't keep talking about handicap

This whole episode he kept focusing on how Denton was a 3.3 handicap and he's a 10.3 and the match was so close. That is absurd because if they were playing stroke play Joe would have been crushed even with the way Denton was putting. It was nothing but excuses about his bad play.

I thought Denton was playing well given that it was his first time on video and having to play against the whole crew helping Joe read putts.

New listener and I'm curious about a couple things

I'm only on book 5 but I feel like if Carl wasn't covered in plot armor he'd have died a long time ago. When they do the recaps and the other crawlers are described he feels so underpowered and really lacks gear.

​

Also, is he always so stubborn and combative when Zev tries to help him and warn him? He is terrible at "taking the hint" when he's told things.

​

Lastly, Donut is the MC right and we're just pretending Carl is? She's clearly always making plans and talking to people off screen and just has much more situational awareness when it comes to the crawl.

​

I'm really enjoying the series so far and look forward to the rest of it.

A brisket smoking question

I'm going to be smoking a brisket for work and would like to not have to reheat it. What's the best way to keep it warm and travel with it and keep it warm/rest for a few hours? Any tips or suggestions are welcome

I'm in the middle of listening to Sandman Slim (currently on The Getaway God) and I'm not sure if I've had too much of the same type of misunderstood reluctant hero who drips sarcasm and treats everyone like crap or what but I've had to stop listening mid book. The whole thing got too much and I found myself yelling in my car at the radio 🤣🤣

I listened to Eric Carter, then Faust, and now moved to Sandman Slim and I think it's time for a new series.

Is there anything where the protagonist is happy? Has money? Does this shit for fun? Anything that's different is what I'm looking for, doesn't even have to be strictly urban fantasy either.

Thanks
