There are always 15 upgrade scrolls in the game, 3 for each dungeon theme. (Likewise there are 10 potions of strength, 2 in each group of 5 levels)

A few upgrades from the Troll Blacksmith quest.
If you upgrade something that's already >= +1...

Often enough, I start using scrolls around wherever the Blacksmith is.
Then again hoarding upgrades for too long can make it hard on other resources and ultimately make for a failed run. There's a balance to strike between upgrading now vs later.

Outside of lucky RNG and broken combos, I usually ask for +6 a few things instead of +18 one thing.

Honestly, that's one of the things I like most about lemmy.
The web UI just works fine in a mobile browser. I was so used to garbage sites going out of their way to gimp the mobile experience (to push you into their app) that I had forgotten how pleasant it was to just use a browser for this.
Multiple tabs, ublock origin, bookmarks, etc.
I appreciate that there are apps available, but it's nice not needing an app.

I love a good broken OP combo. This one looks fun.
Armor isn't so important when you one shot all the things.

A memorable OP run I've had was with a +17 Vampiric Runic Sword with duelist the other day. Ascended with only a +2 plate.
I'd take tons of damage but it'd heal for 100-150 when using it as a weapon ability.

I Iike both slrpnk and blahaj but it's not like their domain names are magically not also part of this alphabet soup they're talking about.
It's... kinda the point of federation and decentralization.
Sure, Reddit or Facebook have brand recognition, they're also centralized corpo garbage.

If a blahaj user wants to share a SJW post, but finds the sjw domain untasteful, they can also just share their instance's URL for said post.

And also maybe grab your kids before gtfo.

Hey you're not alone.
Although I won't pretend to fully understand who you are, I'm not even sure I do my own self.

I had never heard of isogender, but kinda relate to.

I'm not trans, but I don't feel cis either.
I have both masculine and feminine sides, although they're not exactly clearly defined, it's definitely there.
I don't feel gender fluid either, in the sense that I'm always somewhat all over the place like this, which is something that doesn't really change.

I guess isogender is not mutually exclusive with other labels, although I mostly dislike labeling myself, which feels arbitrarily restrictive.
I guess, in a way, maybe that makes me somewhat agender, in the sense that I feel like the concept of gender isn't much relevant to who I am as a person, although it's also not absent either.

I don't really know how to describe this, but labeling myself always felt weird.
It's like people expect me to fit on a horizontal male-female axis, but instead of being in a single spot I'm a Jackson Pollock painting stop-motioned mid-throw in zero-G.

Rubbing your own smooth chin after a long time without shaving is so weirdly pleasant even though I can't find the words to describe the feeling properly.

Edit: sorry, I had missed the part about avoiding lies in your first comment.

Tomatoes are already acidic, consider non-lemony tomatoes next time if possible.

As for this batch, both sugar and baking soda works somewhat and you can to both.
A little at a time so you don't change the taste too much.
Onions are acidic too, but much less so than lemontomatoes, adding a bunch of em to the sauce can help.
If you don't plan on freezing or canning and you're just making sauce to put on pasta or something, add cream to it to make a sauce rosée, it'll mellow the perception of acidity a lot too.
Or use in it a chili where the beans, while not chemically buffering the acidity like baking soda would, can help absorb some of the taste.
