Learned about voice leading, and every time I try it out I just end up with a variation of Moonlight Sonata. Any suggested resources or tips?

I learned about the idea of not focusing on scales or chord progression, but letting the melody dictate the chords. I'm a jazz pianist, so this idea was interesting and new to me. A video suggested using triplets and changing one note, one semi tone at a time. Now I'm just playing moonlight sonata rip offs. Any suggestions?

I dropped an entire tub of weed gummies on a carpeted floor, that a mouse has likely crawled over. Am I cooked?

Some of them have had bites taken out of them (by me, not the mouse.). I have had a mouse in my home for a while, and it is likely it has crawled on the spot on the floor. Am I cooked? Can I still eat these? What if I just leave them sitting for a week, etc?

What do I do about house mice?

I'm at a loss. I don't want to kill the mouse in my house. It doesn't deserve to die for my comfort.

However, I can't see a solution to this problem. House mice aren't native to my island state, so releasing them is a little problematic.

Here are my options:

A) release it in the wild. This means, it has a high potential for a slower, more painful death. Either from starvation, other animals eating it, or the weather. Also, this isn't a native species.

B) I release it in a human populated area. This is just putting the problem onto other people, with a high likelyhood it will be killed by other people, or face the same problems as option a.

C) keep the mouse living in my house. This runs risks of significant illnesses to me, with mouse droppings and pee all over my carpet, and it is doing bad things for my allergies. It's also socially weird to just let a mouse live in your house.

D) kill the mouse. I don't love this, because he doesn't deserve to die just because I can't think of a better solution, but I'm not sure there is a valid alternate here.

Can you think of anything I've missed?

What is the morally agreed upon way to deal with a mouse in your house?

Is this wine still drinkable? It has been properly stored since I was given it in 2013.

I can't find any info online. (The Alex's wine is just my parents leaving a note for themselves to not drink it.)

Am I safe to drink this? Should I? Would it be worth any money today if it's drinkable?

Holy shit, this genuinely might be the easiest build in the game.

To be fair, I have done this after completing the altus plateau, and could imagine it being harder earlier on. But this shit is insane. I am just one/two tapping nearly every enemy I come across. You don't have to think about anything other than bonking. Level up enough health and endurance, and you are just a machine. Especially with a great shield.

The two difficult parts of the build: You hit slow, and you have zero range. But the first problem can be dealt with by having a secondary, fast hitting weapon on stand by, and while it isn't in the spirit of the bonking stick game style, you can just have a strength based bow or low level faith spells for the range.

I'm not trying to disparage this style of gameplay, it's very fun. But people in internet comment sections spouting "yeah but I bet you used a magic build", should try a magic build before condemning others for doing so. It's obvious what the qualities of a magic build are, but the weaknesses are worse to me than the strength builds weaknesses. Spread out stats, lower armour amounts, fiddling with the spells mid battle (before this I was doing a magic/faith build, honestly not worth it just for having to swap between talismans and staves on the go), mana economy, it's not hard but it does have some slight downsides.

In conclusion, I think we can come to an agreement that Bow only users are the real Chads.
