Cheers ! I've been good although real life has been crazy and kept me from being as active on Hive as I'd like. But I still come on and read what others have written most days, even if I don't have time

Thanks for your reply ! Powering up 1K HIVE was mainly down to a combination of factors; I think Hie is still worthwhile, but I've been selling out of HBD due to the haircut risk, so this looks like the

It's a reference to Dungeons & Dragons. You gain Experience Points (XP) as your character goes through their adventures. Periodically, their XP hits a threshold and they go up a level, gaining new

I saw this prompt and knew exactly what it needed 😁 It's a callback to something I wrote ages ago, but this time from another perspective. Enjoy !

I just love the idea of HP as XP 😁 I dream of the day I finally hit 5th level.....

Good to see you back ! I know where you're coming from... real life gets busy so you don't post for a bit. The longer you don't post, the guiltier you feel, making it that much harder to write a post.

100K ! Nicely done 😃 Also, those lemon bars look absolutely delicious !

Thank you ! He is the most mischievous cat we've ever had, he definitely keeps us on our toes 😁

The carnyx, definitely 😁 It's got such a huge range of sounds it can create, from softly melodic to terrifyingly discordant. It's like the Celtic version of a death whistle, but a bit more melodic. I

Food prices a bit, but fuel prices a lot. We're working on trying to grow as much of our own as possible, but it looks like being a cold year so all the plants are starting much later.

Wouldn't it just be easier to get an AI to do it ? With no luxury lifestyle to support it could be programmed not to take bribes, sorry, I mean political donations, from corporations. 😀

I only heard a little bit about it.... is the idea that it delivers a bunch of CIA agents to Cuba ?

Thank you for the share ! 😀
