    I had a pretty disastrous fight with my wizard, so I came up with a little list of “when X happens, use A,B, or C”. That made combat much easier, since it had a list of escape methods for when I was cornered, spells to deal with invisible monsters, stuff to deal damage when I was in a safe spot, etc.

    It only had five or six entries, but it made my turns way faster in combat.












  • The first paragraph is based on my news listening habits.

    The second paragraph is based on my desire to turn on CBC radio or a podcast. I used to enjoy Morningside, the House, Basic Black, As It Happens, Prime Time, Vinyl Cafe, and Ideas.

    Around the time Definitely Not the Opera started, and Michael Enright got the Sunday morning show, I found that I just didn’t want to listen as much. Shows started to be vehicles for their hosts. Some interviewers seemed to be reading from a prepared list of questions. Interviewees don’t seem to be experts, so much as partisans (I don’t need an LPC/CPC hack telling me how they’re doing in the polls).

    Local news programming remains fine. White Coat/Black Art provides a novel perspective. The Debaters is still funny. I have no desire to listen to other shows.

    Sweet! Tax cuts benefiting the wealthy and new spending!

    Joking aside: juicing CBC’s mandate to cover local news is great. There are strong arguments that it should stop selling ads for some services (like podcasts and local news) so small producers have a shot at getting started. Hopefully that’ll be included in the mandate change.
