I’m the non pregnant mother of two soon to be born twin girls. Their (pregnant) mother was just hospitalized out of the blue for pre eclampsia at 30+1. Everyone is stable and doing well but basically stuck in the hospital until delivery at 34 weeks.

Anyone who’s gone through this, how did you deal with it? The hospital is about 1.5 hours away and I’m feeling incredibly guilty that I can’t be there every day, and at the same time incredibly stressed about getting everything else done (and working) while they’re away.

Any advice is so welcome, thanks in advance.

I've been a big fan of the club of hill giant strength + Titanstring combination, but I've had a hard time finding many other weapons that give passive benefits just for holding them.

Ones I know so far:

• Club of Hill Giant Strength
• Knife of the Underking
• Darkfire Shortbow

Are there any/many others?

Hey all, The Curator's Companion is hidden and all it says is

Can't be bothered anymore

Anyone know what's up with that? ;)

So I've been using Redist Heat for what feels like forever. It's not been updated to 1.2 yet though and while I haven't checked if it functions yet, I was considering swapping over to "Centralized Climate Control". That mod's description (admittedly old) says there are tons of mods that cover central heating, butI haven't found any others.

​

So what is your experience with Centralized Climate Control? Do you like it? Have you also stuck with Redist Heat? Is there a third, fourth, hundredth option I haven't looked at yet? TYIA

I’m not getting a merchant dialog from him, I completed Kyne’s sacred trials in case that was a prerequisite, but no luck.

Took a peek in xedit looks like the distribution quest may be looking at the wrong reference of him, looks like the spirit you can encounter in sovngarde if he dies, but I don’t know enough about how that quest works to be sure.

It’s possible I’m just being a moron as I haven’t seen any other reports of issues with him. Any insight appreciated!

I have to say as a compulsive modder, Rimworld has one of the absolute best communities out there. There are huge selections of mods for nearly everything you could ever want. And when an update hits, the authors are super responsive. Personally there are under 10 of my 120 mod list yet to be updated for 1.1. In 10 days. That’s freaking nuts. And not only that but modders exiting the scene are incredibly graceful about releasing the source of content to the community for others to continue and it gets continued!

Now on those 10 waiting mods I have started to see a bit of commenting along the lines of “1.1 when?!?!?!”. But I also see other community members telling those people to stuff it

And was telling one of my friends how much i’m enjoying it only to find it hidden when i went to get specifics.

Whatever skooma fueled updates are about to happen i wholeheartedly look forward to!

What are your favorite yoinks? What do you hope goes into the new update?

That Jackal mini dungeon in Crystal Oasis was so cool. Wish we could have more things like that instead of... random race tracks cluttering old maps.

I saw the pic that was up here the other day and it caught my eye at the store so I grabbed it. Out of sheer luck of the universe MIL asked for tea when they got in today and then asked me to surprise her with the variety. (I have an extensive selection)

She drank it, no comment (snerk) and ate my dinner with tons of over praise (jokes on her - I served BIL all the mac and cheese, If I'm cooking for four hours everyone is goddamned eating it, and I pretended DW hadn't told me about that ridiculous call - see BB)

It gets about time to leave and she tells me how good the tea was and asked what variety it was called. So I told her. (if you missed it before it's Bigelow: constant comment)

The

I'm furious, like shaking and crying angry. After 3 weeks of agreeing that we were not seeing the ILs tonight, because we have plans tomorrow with them, I woke up from a nap to the declaration that we are face timing with them later. (for details see last ramble via bitchbot)

What really hurts is that DW knew I'd be upset. Not this upset but to some degree, and chose to do it anyway. She pointed out that i was asleep but had no reason that she couldn't have put off committing to them except that when MIL corners her she panics and caves. every. time.

So now she's off to xmas eve service and i am here feeling betrayed and really hurt. Just needing some support rather than advice. She really

I've been putting off posting for a while now, even though shenanigans have been in full swing due to the lovely /s Christmas Season. They started off in November...

DW's paternal grandfather has been dying for a few years now. (See previous story about the inhaler... bitchbot will fill you in, this happened the same day). As we're sitting at DW's grandfather's deathbed, Jane wants to talk about how they have no money for Christmas because they're redoing their kitchen. Do they really? I doubt it. But that's beside the point, we have no money because we're moving in 6 weeks so we agreed to all be adults and no presents this year. Oh wait, this is JNMiL... She is naming cabinets after us.

Out to dinner with my wife and a couple we're good friends with. One of them goes, I've been reading this insane subreddit.... Long story short we toasted with our New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc to the demise of Hateful Helga.

Anyone else have a story of meeting someone who reads here? Or knew them already and didn't know they read this?
