Dear kind soul on West Broad near Prairie Township:

It is SO KIND of you to blink your lights for me to turn left into the Community Center. Your gesticulations at waving me in really show you have a giving heart. The fact that you increased your efforts when I shook my head "No" demonstrate your commitment to kindness and civility. That you slowed to a crawl with no stop light (yet active) and waved even harder when I crossed my neck in the universal sign of "cut it out" says loud to the world "Ohio will be a beacon of civilization in these dark times."

But the car in your blind spot wasn't stopping and I didn't want to get T-Boned on the way to swim lesson for my kid.

Thanks anyway 🥂 (⬅

I don't see this talked about, and I understand a bit of the inefficiencies that will inevitably be brought up, but my playstyle often includes Batch Manufacturing. Here's what I do, mostly presented for a descriptive read, because, as I said, I don't see much discussion of the method.

When I unlock a tech, recipe, or part, I like to build a sampling line to make the item out of containers. This is handy in seeing what scale of parts are needed, and gets me off the ground building those parts VERY quickly.

So, rather than scouting out resources to build, say, rifle ammo, I just take from my bins of copper, coal, sulfur, and set up a line near an oil well. I end up with a crate of rifle amm

So, here's my thesis: I'm a problem-solving puzzle junkie, an ADHD, D&D-trained IT main that loves Physics and experimental sounds; TMBG was always going to land that plane (forget what they said in that other song), but what really cinches this love of mine for their particular wine is the glorious hit when it clicks and I suddenly understand—divine.

Book was an oddity, I was not ready for it when it hit and it didn't resound within my side of town like a blow to the body. I could hardly say what it was, but there was this nervous draw of breath and a little death, where is the breadth? I couldn't get it down.

The fact of the time was that I was feeling a way, the itch was being scratch

You know how there are all these barrels and crates outside businesses and homes, or in the forum of the Imperial City Marketplace? That, my friend, is an ancient tradition of eliminating waste in public life called "gleaning." If the vegetable vendor has a small sack of ugly carrots leftover at the end of the day, they leave them behind in a public area, and the beggars/tinkerers/and thrifty folks come along and scoop up the items left there. That's why there is all this "free" loot all around Cyrodiil! It's also why there are frequently junk items mixed in, and every now and again, you might find something valuable.

I just really appreciate that it's both a game-balancing thing to reward
