DM quick tip: 1 hour of combat equals 1 post-it note

What you need on the post-it note:

an objective for the hour (save villagers by stopping the sacrifice)

Number of enemies and of which kind

what happens if the players succeed (cultists will try to complete the ritual using themselves as sacrifices)

what happens if the players fail (fiend summoned)

General timing of the fight (whether the sacrifice is attempted on the first or second round of combat)

whether there is anything special about the enemies (cultists have Produce Flame cantrip)

what loot is awarded, if any (ceremonial dagger). loot can also be information

This works for if you have fights longer than an hour as well, you just have to split the larger fight into phases with separate but related objectives

The example above is actually about double what I usually write, because the monday game has a fluctuating number of players (usually 3-9) that I have to account for

I do really love being able to boop strangers. Even tho I know booping would inevitably lose some of its charm if it lasted for longer than April fools day, I do kinda wish they would keep this feature around just to be able to show appreciate for people you’d otherwise never interact w

Unorthadox Ways To Stop The Tarrasque:

Bap with newspaper.

Summon bigger, more aggressive Tarrasque.

Bribe with treats and smooches on the forehead.

"TIs music that soothes the savage beast" you say, pushing your bard forwards and running away.

Cancel it on twitter.

Smash all the things it was going to smash first. Your move, lizard boy.

Sit there and hope it has a heart attack before it gets here.

Attach to thousands of helium balloons. It's the sky's problem now.

Put bag on its head so it can't see anyone, assumes its already destroyed everything and goes back to sleep.

Dress Bugs Bunny up as a sexy lady tarrasque to distract it.

Gofundme Campaign.

Put up a "No Tarrasques" sign and call it a day.

what is the 1033 program?

The U.S. Department of Defense administers the 1033 program, which transfers excess military equipment to U.S. police forces—federal, state and local. This program has so far sent $6 billion in military gear to police departments. The militarized police responses seen in Ferguson in 2014, Baltimore in 2015 and in cities throughout the country during the 2020 uprisings after George Floyd’s murder can be directly attributed to the 1033 program.

The demand to abolish the 1033 program has been a part of the Black Alliance for Peace (BAP)’s program since its founding. Read more about our program and our umbrella campaign, No Compromise, No Retreat: Defeat the War on African/Black People in the U.S. and Around the World.

Sandeep Marwah Visits Swaminarayan Akshardham in Robbinsville Advocates for Global Peace Through Art and Culture

Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA – “You do not need to work to become spiritual. You are spiritual; you need only to remember that fact. Spirit is within you. God is within you,” stated Dr. Sandeep Marwah, President of the World Peace Development and Research Foundation, during his visit to BAPS Swaminarayan Akshardham, one of the world’s largest temples, located in Robbinsville, New Jersey.

In a press conference, Dr. Marwah also Chair for Indo American Film and Cultural Forum, elaborated on the objectives of the World Peace Development and Research Foundation. The foundation aims to conduct high-quality, impactful research to understand the roots of conflict and the pathways to peace. It provides training and educational programs that equip individuals and communities with the necessary tools for promoting peace and resolving conflicts. Additionally, the foundation advocates for policy changes that prioritize peace, justice, and sustainable development in collaboration with other institutions and stakeholders. Building and maintaining an extensive global network of peace advocates and practitioners is also a key focus of the foundation.

The foundation organizes cultural festivals that showcase traditional music, dance, theater, and cuisine from various regions, fostering cross-cultural understanding and the celebration of diversity. Peace conferences are held where scholars, activists, and experts from different fields gather to discuss and exchange ideas on peace-building, conflict resolution, and global harmony. Workshops and seminars on conflict resolution, non-violent communication, and mediation techniques are conducted to provide practical tools for individuals and communities to address conflicts peacefully.

Artist residencies are offered, allowing artists from different countries to live and work together, creating collaborative projects that explore themes of peace, love, and unity. The foundation develops and implements peace education programs in schools and universities to promote empathy, understanding, and respect for diversity among students. Cultural exchanges between artists, musicians, dancers, and performers from different countries are facilitated, fostering dialogue, collaboration, and mutual appreciation.

Public art installations are commissioned to convey messages of peace, love, and unity, serving as reminders and catalysts for positive change within communities. International collaborations are forged with other peace organizations, cultural institutions, and NGOs to enhance the impact and reach of peace-building initiatives worldwide. Youth engagement programs are developed to involve young people in peace-building activities, including art competitions, leadership training, and mentorship programs that empower them to become ambassadors of peace.

Art therapy initiatives are promoted in conflict-affected areas and communities, providing individuals with a creative outlet for healing, expression, and reconciliation. Peace advocacy campaigns are launched using art and culture as powerful tools to raise awareness about peace-related issues such as disarmament, human rights, gender equality, and environmental sustainability. The foundation supports grassroots initiatives by providing grants and resources to local community organizations and individuals working on peace-building projects, ensuring that peace efforts are decentralized and inclusive.

Networking opportunities and dialogue platforms are facilitated for artists, cultural activists, and peace advocates to connect, collaborate, and share best practices in their respective fields. These activities, when implemented with dedication and strategic planning, contribute to the foundation’s mission of developing and promoting love, peace, and unity through art and culture.

Market Entry Strategies for Shrimp Businesses in Asia-Pacific

The Asia-Pacific region boasts one of the most dynamic and lucrative shrimp markets in the world. With a growing demand for high-quality seafood, especially shrimp, countries in this region offer immense opportunities for businesses looking to enter the market. However, navigating this competitive landscape requires careful planning and strategic market entry approaches. In this blog post, we explore some effective strategies for shrimp businesses aiming to establish a foothold in the Asia-Pacific shrimp market.

Understanding the Asia-Pacific Shrimp Market

Before diving into market entry strategies, it's crucial to have a solid grasp of the Asia-Pacific shrimp market landscape. This region includes countries like China, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, and others, which collectively account for a significant portion of global shrimp production and consumption.

Market Size and Growth: The Asia-Pacific shrimp market is sizable and continues to grow steadily. Factors such as rising disposable incomes, increasing health consciousness, and the popularity of shrimp in local cuisines contribute to this growth.

Key Trends: Sustainability, traceability, and product quality are becoming increasingly important in the Asia-Pacific shrimp market. Consumers are more aware of environmental issues and are seeking responsibly sourced shrimp products.

Competition: The market is highly competitive, with both local producers and international players vying for market share. Understanding local preferences and consumer behaviour is essential for success.

Market Entry Strategies

1. Partnering with Local Distributors or Suppliers

Establishing partnerships with local distributors or suppliers can provide valuable insights into the market. Local partners have in-depth knowledge of consumer preferences, distribution channels, and regulatory requirements. They can help navigate cultural nuances and streamline the supply chain.

By collaborating with established local players, shrimp businesses can leverage existing networks and infrastructure. This approach also helps in building trust with consumers who often prefer products from familiar and trusted sources.

2. Tailored Product Offerings

Different countries within the Asia-Pacific region have unique preferences when it comes to shrimp. Tailoring product offerings to suit local tastes can be a winning strategy. For example:

In Japan, there is a high demand for premium, large-sized shrimp for sushi and sashimi.

China values live and fresh shrimp, often preferring head-on varieties.

Southeast Asian countries like Thailand and Vietnam have a diverse market where both raw and value-added products are popular.

Adapting packaging, sizes, and processing methods to align with these preferences can give businesses a competitive edge.

3. Emphasise Sustainability and Quality

Given the increasing focus on sustainability and food safety, highlighting these aspects can attract environmentally-conscious consumers. Certifications such as Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) and Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) can enhance the marketability of shrimp products.

Investing in quality control measures throughout the supply chain, from hatcheries to processing facilities, is crucial. Ensuring traceability and a transparent supply chain can build consumer trust, especially in markets where food safety is a top concern.

4. Market Research and Consumer Insights

Thorough market research is indispensable for successful market entry. Understanding consumer behaviour, purchasing power, and cultural norms can guide product development and marketing strategies.

Engaging in consumer surveys, focus groups, and data analysis can provide valuable insights. This information can help in pricing strategies, promotional campaigns, and identifying the most effective distribution channels.

5. E-commerce and Digital Marketing

The Asia-Pacific region has seen a significant rise in e-commerce, particularly in countries like China and South Korea. Leveraging online platforms for selling shrimp products can reach a wider audience, including younger consumers who are more inclined to shop online.

Digital marketing, including social media and influencer collaborations, can create buzz around products. Platforms like WeChat, Weibo, and Instagram are popular in the region and can be effective channels for reaching potential customers.

6. Attend Trade Shows and Industry Events

Participating in trade shows and industry events specific to the seafood sector can provide exposure and networking opportunities. Events like Seafood Expo Asia, China Fisheries & Seafood Expo, and Vietfish are ideal for showcasing products, meeting potential buyers, and staying updated on market trends.

Conclusion

Entering the Asia-Pacific shrimp market offers immense potential for growth, but it requires a strategic approach. By understanding the market landscape, tailoring products to local preferences, emphasising sustainability, and leveraging partnerships and digital platforms, shrimp businesses can position themselves for success.

In this dynamic and competitive market, continuous adaptation and innovation are key. Keeping pace with evolving consumer trends, maintaining high-quality standards, and building strong relationships within the industry will be vital for long-term growth and profitability in the Asia-Pacific shrimp market.

Stormblight Casts “Mitten Bap” And baps the shit out of his target. He’s pissed, his eyes glow bright purple and he hisses wildly. He struggles to keep himself together in his rage.

The target takes the full brunt of his weighted gloved hit and is knocked backwards, freshly bloodied and bruised.

My D&D oc is loosely based on Amity! His name is Stormblight, he’s a pirate Tabaxi rogue. He’s part of a homebrew campaign my best friend is running! In her campaign, everyone has magic. Literally everyone and everything is born with some amount of magical energy. But Stormblight is cursed, and can only use Abomination Magic! Homebrewing his powers has been really fun and interesting, as there aren’t many fan-made Owl House D&D 5E style pages created, despite how well I think it lends itself to 5E.

Our party consists of a wide variety of beings, but Stormblight is the only one with a curse. His curse works kind of like Eda’s, in that if he becomes stressed, he turns to Abomination goo. This can also happen if he receives a heavy impact, where on impact his body will goop up a bit. Maybe I’ll post some art of him goopy, I have goopy catboy art lol. 🤣

Do people post WIP’s on tumblr in 2023? It’s been so long since I’ve been on here, I wasn’t sure if I should add the progress pics or not!
