Whoever is setting off fireworks at this ungodly hour on a Sunday night, I hope you have a terrible day, week, and month ahead of you.

My partner and I recently brought over a stack of cash (over $150k) for a down payment on a house that didn't work out. While we're waiting to find another place we like, what's the best way to store the money so it's earning a bit of interest?

We'd prefer to be able to access the money quickly for when it comes time to buy a house.

What would you guys suggest?

I'm working on a project that revolves around cruise ships arriving in Dunedin. Right now I can find the schedule of the ships arrivals/departures for the whole season, and the upcoming arrivals and departures. what I can't find is a record of ships that were due to arrive on a day, but had cancel.

Anyone know of a good way to find this info? Thanks!

So far I've made a few all-extract brews and found the flavor a bit wanting. Also, would like to push my ABV above 5%.

I don't have the time/space/supplies to go to all grain, but I was thinking what if I start with my typical wort - something like this, then add two cans of LME (not necessarily two of the same type though)?

A while back my Mrs and I bought our dog a toy made out of upcycled climbing rope, and he loved it. Unfortunately the toy is nearing the end of its life, and rather than shell out another $25 on a toy I would try to make one myself.

So... Anyone got any old/retired climbing rope they're looking to part with? Would be happy to throw you a couple of bucks or some beer in exchange! Thanks!

Looking to do something "a little different" with my players this week and run a 1-off one shot.

The premise is that they've been tasked by the BBEG to infiltrate a city, and weaken it from the inside so it'll be easier to invade when his undead army arrives at dusk the following day.

I'm obviously thinking having encounters like talking their way past the town guard, but what else should they have to do? Maybe tasks that weaken or sabotage the city, while still keeping a low profile? Have the final fight against some good-aligned monster that protects the city?

Could use either resources or just ideas on what to include!

Thanks in advance!
