I feel my eye twitch whenever people complain about art commission prices (in this case $70-80) as being too high…. honey…. for what art should really be charged at (which would be definite triple digits), that’s actually pretty damn cheap. When artists charge at $5-10, that’s like, pennies price tbh, you’re getting too used to artists undercharging like that yo. This isn’t the lemonade stand.

Proof that pruning at a younger age for a tree will payoff more for later prunings; the young apples trees have been the least amount of work to prune, taking at most half an hour if not less (???) to prune for the larger young trees, in contrast the very old rickety Red Delicious apple tree has been multiple sessions worth of work for the past several days, primarily just in watershoots. Old trees left wild do not take the pruning without a fight.

I can respect that.

this is the realest reason to use one handed weapons.

Here’s why all of you who have Skyrim for PC should ABSOLUTELY install the Inigo follower mod, even if it’s your only mod. It’s the cat man saying the line in this screenshot, and he has tons of equally wonderful lines just like this.

This fucker has thousands of lines of dialogue. He is the only character
in the game, modded or otherwise, that feels like an actual character
and not a cardboard cutout complaining about the cold.

And yes, he is fully voiced.

Some things to know about Inigo

  • He’s openly and vocally anti-racism, and he will make sure you know it.

  • He’s a recovered skooma addict that survived a suicide attempt and travels with you to help himself find redemption for his past.
  • He will be concerned for you if you’re carrying skooma in your inventory
  • If you sit with him in an inn and know him well enough, he will let you vent to him about being depressed, and he will do his best to hear you out and help you feel better.
  • He has a friend he carries with him everywhere named Mr. Dragonfly. If Mr. Dragonfly is in his inventory, he will occasionally tell you what he’s thinking.
  • If Mr. Dragonfly is not with him, he will be sad and ask if he can have him back. He’ll be sure to let you know that it’s not personal, but he and Mr. Dragonfly are really good friends.
  • Give him back his dragonfly friend you monster.
  • he WONT TALK TO YOU WHILE YOU’RE SNEAKING

tl;dr go download Inigo and you’ll never use another follower again

Before I super-ramble I just want to say that thanks to a friend of mine I know that Inigo’s mod is ACTUALLY AVAILABLE FOR SKYRIM USERS OUTSIDE OF PC (idr which console but I know a friend who does not have skyrim for PC was able to install Inigo’s mod, and apparently has had as much of a colourful experience as I’ve had through him).

As one who was wild with skyrim mods back in the days of my old PC (*coughs* still need to somehow relearn out how to set up mod managers etc., again before I can do it on the new PC), if there is one mod I couldn’t possible go without, it’d be Inigo. He livens the Skyrim experience so much more, both towards other npcs (it’s a hilarious ride if you have something like a multiple followers mod installed) and the actual environment, to even certain quests. I don’t want to spoil too much of the experience with him but I can say additionally;

  • He has one of the best AIs of any follower or follower mod of skyrim, to the point there are even coded workarounds/fixes in his code for those times where skyrim followers tend derp out (you know the ones I mean; where they get overly aggressive or somehow did not come with you in fast travel or got stuck etc.). He even has the ability to avoid traps to not set them off!
  • He is extremely endearing- wait that’s not good enough for you more morally darker players? HIS MORAL COMPASS ACTUALLY WILL ROLL WITH YOU; you wanna be a thief, a mischeifmaker? Part of the Brotherhood perhaps? Or are a little baby like me and want to stick to being as morally good as you can despite skyrim’s nature? Inigo will likely roll with it.
  • IT IS NO EXAGGERATION THAT HE HAS A LOT OF AVAILABLE DIALOGUE AND LINES. You know yourself with skyrim that dialogue tends to be limited after a point and normally tends to loop around a lot. Inigo’s variety of dialogue makes this much more of a rarity when it comes to him; you can do different playthroughs and get sometimes very different lines you may have not have gotten in previous playthroughs with him, even if there are patterns in some. While you can ask him to talk less, you may get the best of experiences if you let him talk a lot and pick his brain whenever you’re resting at camp or in a tavern. Trust me, he has a lot of amusing opinions if you decide to chat with him here and there. Also his battle dialogue is much more entertaining than the vanilla “NOW you’ll pay” and “HYAS” and it will definitely either make you sputter from the humor or just fire you up in the fight.
  • He has his own little quest. Ok maybe not the best of motivations/points for some of you, but said quest gives you some advantages after the completion as well as gives you a bit more about his past if you decide to dig during said quest. His quest also can be postponed when it triggers if for some reason you are busy with something else ingame.

I cannot recommend the Inigo mod enough. If you need a freshen up in the game or just get a really hard-to-forget experience in skyrim, then Inigo may be your Kajit for the job.

has any other greenhouse grower found something buried in the gravel that really shouldn’t be in the gravel unless something put it in there? Like, you’d think that if there’s any chance of animals for some reason being buried in the gravel by cats/dog you’d think mouse, bird perhaps, maybe a rabbit. Animals like to store their prey when not wanting to eat it after all.

But no halfway through cleaning the greenhouse today I found a freaking dead piglet buried in the gravel…… which REALLY raises a LOT of questions as we do not raise pigs on this farm.
