My and @Elldren 's game of Twilight Struggle ended in a victory for her forces of communism. She swept Asia early on and I could never get it back, and the Middle East is just a fuckhole for the US player - between Nasser, Muslim uprisings, the Arab-Israeli War card (a repeatable event, lol), and a few others - and then Fidel showed up and I wasted nearly as many resources trying to cap him as in real life.
But this all came so close to not mattering! I flipped Poland with the power of the Pope and then East Germany with help from Truman Doctrine. A couple of high-value plays into E. Germany gave me control - and while control of any other global region gives you victory points based on the number of countries controlled and their relative importance, if you have control of every battleground European country when the Europe scoring card is played you auto-win the game regardless of VP totals. SO CLOSE!
But I lost Israel and Iran so she scored Control in the ME and that was enough points for a shutout. That was an excellent game and Ell is a devious commie femme fatale.

Australia as has biscuits called Scallywags that were renamed from Golliwogs.

I took an impromptu 4-hour nap last night so...then.
I'm about to have some coffee with butter and heavy cream in a bit. I have discovered that using the frother to thicken up the heavy cream before throwing in the coffee makes it very creamy and satisfying.
It's not as bad as I thought. Last year I was making faces nonstop at beasto for doing it. But now I am. Le sigh
Frozen custard is really great. Dense and rich. Similar to gelato.
on friday i had a concrete from shake shack that was vanilla custard with a seasonal pie from four and twenty blackbirds (which is an awesome pie place) mixed in
Where in finland are you DK? Far enough north that they put cheese in coffee?
I am headed to Oulu, and God I hope so that sounds amazing.
Though apparently finns are a bit more likely to just eat it with cloud berries as a side, and putting it in coffee is more of a thing for the old finnish immigrant population in the swedish north.

Is this real? I am pretty credulous when it comes to ice cream
The best Ice Cream
Here, have some n-word balls. And of course it figures that I find some racist as heck ones when I GIS.
Someone then had the idea that maybe that was a wee bit offensive and suggested just calling them "chocolate balls" or something instead.
Cue massive outrage from the racist shitheel right-wing section about how it was "Swedish culture" and "had always been called that" etc etc.
OMFG so good.
I don't know where you'd find it in Australia land but I had it for the first time on the east coast here. It is the superior product.

I had frozen custard in Scotland
Can confirm that it is the flavor of life itself

I don't really think that it is an improvement.
Casual says he isn't a big fan of custard
I want this.
That is a retrogression.
I can recommend the TTS mod wholeheartedly, it is complete and works great.

I'm about to go crash now, though.

That can't be real.

A name ripe for abuse.
Regardless, I am going to try this frozen custard

Idk, Golliwog is pretty bad.
Scallywag isn't worse just as a word.
But in combination? It's already -10000 points so there you are
Hmm, looks about the same. This is ours.
They also offer the custard with the Italian ice on top and bottom and it's surprisingly good.
I do not know about that at all.
I have also heard of butter in coffee.
That sounds whack
This speaks to me
