Time for some more travel. There's Corona's "soft-partnering" term again Did Ingi call Corona "dude"? Has Shekinah never seen photos of Sarper from when he was a teen? Uhhh I think Sarper did make women feel terrible Well, Meitalia's mom, Meitalia and James have something to tell you... I would not like the ear massage (I think) that Josh and Lily are getting Ew I did not need to see Josh's earwax plug Sarper, it's okay to have had feelings for your ex Corona had time to fly to another country, and you didn't have time to move your clothes, Ingi? I do think Meitalia and James care about each other Of course Sarper told women he loved them and then ghosted Next time James is in for culture shock Next time we learn that Josh is jealous Next time Sarper laughs off Shekinah's concerns Next time Statler arrives in the UK and it's awkward (Prompt by me) 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way , TLC Promotional image source

I have actually attended a Summerween party! These are mostly ideas for a Summerween party. Carve watermelons like you would a pumpkin (and eat the insides--yum) Draw jack-o-lantern faces on oranges (it's adorable and more summery) Watch a summery horror movie (e.g. I Know What You Did Last Summer  or Midsommar ) Go to a Ren Faire (I feel like this is a good mix of costumes and summer vibes) Have a summery costume contest (perhaps specify that all costumes must be summery in some way?) Bob for oranges (like bob for apples, but more summery) Do a water balloon toss but dye the water red (bloody good fun) Throw a costume relay race that features a slip and slide (costume relay races are where one person puts on one piece of a costume, races to the next person who puts that on as well as another item, and so on and so forth until the final, fully costumed person races back to the beginning--anyways, do that but throw in a slip and slide) Make s'mores (I feel this is both a summer ...

Time for part 1 of the tell-all! I just want everyone to know that I had to go to TLC-Go to watch this episode What a wild premise for a tell-all I love Patrick saying having sex on the bed can act as dibs Jasmine, even if Gino could afford this house, I doubt that would make you two a good couple Thaís looks so cold in these shots outside Emily is so pregnant Are Gino and Jasmine not staying together? Jasmine is going to rub Emily's feet...sure Yes, Manuel and Ashley's relationship heavily relies on sex DON'T WIPE HIS TEARS, LIZ (I will have to talk about the two of them sometimes because of how jumbled everyone is, but generally I won't talk about just the two of them) Patrick! You're a rat! I like Sophie as a brunette Sophie, if you're married...maybe you should figure out labels? Wow Kobe just getting into it Oop Angela and Michael get out of at least one night of group hangs Of course Gino and Jasmine had another fight Everyone peeping on this conversation ...

Time for part 1 of the finale!  Nina is good at impressions This is a pretty funny activity (not sure what to call it) Quick crew drag mini challenge should be fun! Lol everyone wins Talent show for three badges! Okay...are we getting to the talent show in this episode? While I do like the tic-tac lunches, doing 8 in one episode is kind of draining Gottmik has a crush on Vanjie?! It's adorable "The sun has set, why is there Ru mail?"--Plastique So I can respect this "it's up to the last minute!" shenanigans, but this was a filler episode... ...especially as the double diamond winner isn't being announced until after all other badges have been awarded Next time is part 2 of the finale... ...which is hopefully actually the talent show Should be good!

I recently purchased  The Ultimate RPG Game Master's Worldbuilding Guide: Prompts and Activities to Create and Customize Your Own Game World  by James D'Amato  and it, and going whale watching, inspired me to create a new D&D world. So here we go! I'm going to use prompts from the book to begin crafting this world. These questions will pertain to the small island on which the adventure begins.  You can read part 1 of my planning here . These are the (ever so slightly modified) open-ended questions about magic on page 34. I will try and answer them all. What is a folk belief or superstition related to magic? That it is more ancient than the islands themselves What profession or institution depends on magic? Healers to some extent Those who send important or secret communications How has society developed differently because of magic? It gives additional hope What can these practitioners offer the world that others can't? Fast communication Amplified abilities Wher...

Time for some travel! Wait, Corona, you haven't met Ingi's family yet? Uh, Corona, pretty sure many romance novels talk about being scared of falling in love So Statler is an angry driver (great attribute for living in a van) I feel like the show is playing off that it's weird that Statler has bonded with her car, but lots of people bond with their cars Ah Statler is oversharing And Josh is off!

He collects trophies like one... 143 pages is wild, Shekinah Welcome back, Statler and Dempsey Actually, Statler, there are several people in the room with you EW STATLER Are we going to meet James's family? Okay, Meitalia, I agree James should've told you about Jojo earlier, but like what did you think the money plan was? (Honestly, this also makes me wonder if they even looked up if James can legally stay in the country for a long time) I forgot Dempsey was a traveling kid Oof James, you are bad at this James are you not even giving two weeks' notice? James...how can you expect to provide for Meitalia in Indonesia if you can't speak the language? Oh great, James doesn't want to have kids and hasn't conveyed it to Meitalia Lol of course Sarper still has the bottles Next time Josh makes it to China Next time Josh is worr...
