...in the context of processed foods, i've always considered 'chemicals' synonymous with industrially synthesised ingredients, by contrast to naturally-occurring foodstuffs...

...sounds like my former doctor, except a burnt-out grizzled hippie: i blame the health insurance industry for the fate of her private practice...

...anyway, after the corporate buyout i just quit going; shame because she was a really great general practitioner...

...scotchbrite pads generally won't scuff aluminum cookware, but stainless steel mesh works well on steel, iron, and glass; in either case, sanitary-sponge rules apply...

don't.
use.
sponges.

...the f*ck is wrong with you people?!.if you must use a sponge: thoroughly wash, rinse, wring, and set it out somewhere well-ventilated to air-dry quickly and completely after each use...

...seriously, do wash your f*cking hair by dunking your head in a soiled toilet and flushing it a couple of times?..you eat off your dishes, man, practice some sanitary scullery!..

...that's mostly due to it being undercooked (or cooked-just-right in my opinion), which i learned the hard way after binging on a giant bag and fearing i needed to rush to the hospital until an absurdly-long-winded bout of flatulence relieved the pressure...

...if you overcook your broccoli it doesn't have the same effect...

...how would you characterise dominate person cast with indefinite duration?..

...upcasting dominate person at eighth level can maintain up to eight hours with concentration, so i'd be inclined to consider twenty-four hours duration equivalent to a ninth-level spell, but perhaps i'm under-gauging the difference in power between eighth and ninth-level spells?..

...regardless, in this particular case it was cast with indefinite duration plus disadvantage on the saving throw against a hostile player character, which i'd like to translate into mechanical terms: maybe a ninth-level casting with heightened metamagic plus silvery barbs?..

...i'm playing with a DM who has a poor grasp of fifth-edition's mechanical balance and i'd like to help him understand just how adversarial his homebrew and houserule tendencies are leaning, especially for early tier-two gameplay...
