Healing is pretty neat.

The Bandybucks, Tools, and Baggins are well established family lines in the Shire - some like the Tooks are thought to be some of the original Hobbit lines - and both Pippen and Merry have known a life of privilege and comfort prior to the story. Frodo does as well, but mostly because he's the named heir of Bilbo. So as far as Hobbit society has any sense of gentry, all the hobbits but Sam would count.

I'm gonna agree and raise you: I think fungi took over the world before dinosaurs did. Think about it, the vast networks of mycorrhizae that allow for forests to exist is all fungus, some of the first standing organic structures on the planet were fungus, and when everything dies it gets consumed by fungus. Hell, there are radioactive fungi near Chernobyl that how found a way to consume the radiation as food. Fungi are wild.

I've had a few friends who've worked in 55+ communities, old folks homes, and memory care facilities and let me tell you those old people be fucking. They be fucking like rabbits. It's an open secret that an antibiotic resistant strain of STIs are generated among that population.

I could kiss you! Jak and Daxter are my FAVORITE games and I had zero idea that project even existed!

My groups collective chats are more of a microcosm of meme culture at the given time, sort of a petri dish of various meme strains fighting for (limited) mental resources.

I firmly believe no one has ever finished a game

Leave them on at home specifically engaged in some idle game, like Cookie Clicker et al. so it looks like you were engaging with it.
