Ah I was hoping someone would have a better idea, thanks!

The point about the contents of the vault having mostly sentimental value may have gone over better if not for the pile of gold in there.

I love that she inadvertently fixed the sexist damsel in distress character just by pointing out that she could have agency (and giving her a role model).

I assume Serval Cat Mask was inspired by Kinnikuman as that's the only pro-wrestling anime I know of and the moves looked pretty similar.

Leucocorpinus Birnbaumii, also called "the flowerpot mushroom" because it shows up in flowerpots so often.

The "unraveled" one likely didn't have enough light and grew into a long string trying to find the sun. This is similar to the principal used when cultivating Enoki mushrooms to make them grow into thin white pins instead of the way Flammulina Velutipes typically looks in the wild.

I would have needed a really good scaling mult joker to make it to the point where stencil gives me enough for purple stake plasma's scaling. Other decks would have been able to wait for one but I couldn't keep up.

It was half my steam playtime last year and I still haven't finished it.

 

I wouldn't even need jokers for mult so much with telescope.

Not the most interesting episode but we learned a little more about the world:

  • The Demon King's country is poor and has a poor diet, perhaps that's why he seems like such a good guy.
  • Demons have "totally legitimate cultural reasons" for wearing skimpy outfits. While this is obviously an excuse for fan service, it does raise the question of whether the Demon King is actually a demon.

One thing I'm still not sure about is whether the izakaya Dennosuke visits is a real place in the world, a real place outside the world, or a construct of his mind.

Delicious in Dungeon is intended to be shortened to "D in D" which is meant to sound like D&D or Dungeons and Dragons.

It seems like the point of this show is to give MAPPA animators the opportunity to take their shot at a bunch of classic anime scenes. Episode 1 they did the giant warrior from Nausicaa and episode 2 is a Macross missile massacre.

The plot interesting enough so far, while this show did turn out to be an isekai, at least it's an old-school "learn a lesson" isekai and not a pointless power fantasy in a video-gamey world like the recent inescapable trend.

I thought am5 CPUs usually have big notches in the top part, seems like it should be easy enough to grab on to those.

Otherwise, there's usually enough space around the sides that you can fit a fingernail/toothpick/tweezers in there and flip it out. You could also put your hand over it and flip the whole thing over.

I love the "We'll need some time to consider your offer, thank you for meeting with us" response to the Ogre king being unreasonable. I knew Japanese businessmen have the most polite methods of telling you to fuck off so it was really interesting to have an explanation of the reasoning behind it.

I'm enjoying this series so far, here's hoping it stays focused on effective business strategies and less on Harem nonsense. So far Dennosuke is staying professional and oblivious to Urmander's obvious crush on him which is pretty funny so maybe that will be the running gag.

Congrats, I'm amazed you were able to get green joker so high with red deck. I always end up having it sit in single-digits until I inevitably ditch it.

 

Earthballs are a bit like puffballs except they have a thicker skin and tend to be inedible or poisonous (though some say it's that they just "spoil" so quickly that you almost never find them in a state of supposed edibility).

Earthballs often tricky to tell apart from each other without a microscope or seeing them at multiple stages in their lifecycle but the Leopard Earthball has a few good tells like the brown cracking scales on the surface and the rapid red staining when it's cut in half.

If it's dark enough the tips glow faintly like a candle that's just been snuffed out.

You can see the glow in this blacklight photo I took (sorry if it's hard to see, I didn't turn off color correction on my phone).

The plant it's growing on is a dead piece of a Mountain Ash/Rowan shrub which seems to be bouncing back from whatever killed that branch.

My reasoning for this being A. Adonis: To start with it's a pink mycenoid mushroom of which there are three documented species in the PNW.

It can't be Mycena Monticola because it wasn't found at a high enough elevation for that species (they only grow at over 2000 feet hence the name Monticola meaning "mountain dwelling").

The gills are not marginate (having a different color on the edges) which rules out the other pink species Mycena Rosella.

That leaves us with A. Adonis.

Species is something like Subcana. Grey Mycena are hard to differentiate.

 

These have beautiful reddish brown pores on the bottom
