I guess posting them all in a row looks a little spammy. But from what I can tell this community has been empty since it was created, so I thought I might as well make a few posts to get things rolling :)

This is a Spotted Lupe, which is a colour based on the African wild dog. There's a morphing potion for it: https://items.jellyneo.net/item/46492/

I don't remember what the drama was offhand -- r/hobbydrama has a lot of neopets write-ups, though, and I think I ran into it there.

If you want you can DM me your username and/or pet names (if you remember) and I can check whether they're still out there!

I had a second-hand bread machine that served me very well for several years, until one day when it started vibrating like crazy and threw itself off the counter mid-knead. The whole lid smashed into about seven pieces and the dough went all over the floor. We still refer to it as "the time the bread maker committed suicide."

Anyway, that's how I ended up making all our bread by hand for the next four years or so.

I have, although when I looked into it some years back it was available only on a limited basis and you could only apply for an account certain days of the year... it seemed a bit complicated (and was the wrong time of year) so I forgot about it. Wasn't there some big drama with its creator also?

I was able to recover my OG neopets account a few months ago -- from 2001! -- and I've been enjoying getting back into it.

Give me a Star Trek-style replicator and I'm never cooking dinner again.

Brilliant. Setting up some filters has made browsing All so much better!

People don't need to engage politically on every single platform they frequent. I've blocked a long list of political keywords, because 95% of the political content I see here is about a country I'm not from. Americans can scream at each other to their hearts' content without my being obligated to participate or even observe.

I got about twelve episodes into Voyager and I had to stop because the contrast with DS9 in that respect was way too much for me (I was watching concurrently 1990s style).

Oh hey, we had one of those disasters in Canada! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_pay_system
