  1. I'm looking for Sandy Toothpaste, a quest from an air faerie.

    Found 6 here for 11,000

  2. I have stuff in my safety deposit box that I'll never use, but can't make enough on to justify selling (Paint Brushes don't buy themselves). So, as a small "thank you" for the warm welcome I've received here, I'm going to give some of it away. I have 43 Battledome items, 4 Petpets, and 5 books I'm now officially out of books. Simply tell me if you'd rather have a Battledome item, or a Petpet, or a book, and I will send it your way. All I ask is that you agree to use the item yourself instead of selling it.

  3. "Brilliant light blinds you. As it fades, a Light Faerie says, "Thank goodness you're here! Please find me Korbats Lab Card, kind Neopian."

     

    Please and thank you!

    It's 23,995 NP here. And that's the cheapest I've seen.

     

    Update: If that one winds up sold out, try here for 24,010 NP, here for 24,774, and here for 27,000. They all have multiples in stock, and will be less likely to sell all their stock.

  4. Chocolate covered cashews. They're delicious.

  5. Here's the opinion of a secular person who's uncomfortable identifying as an atheist because of the way some of them act towards certain groups of people.

     

    People have, at times, committed atrocities and attempted (with varying success) to use religion to justify their actions. This isn't an excuse to condemn an entire religion and all its adherents, though. Truthfully, the most pervasive problem of religion today is dogmatism, which leads individuals to believe they've a right to legislate the lives and conduct of others using their religion. Looking more closely, one begins to see a pattern to this activity. Take, for example, women's rights that are being attacked by religious people. These attacks are motivated by misogyny and a dogmatic interpretation of the religion, empowered by patriarchy, and religion is used as an attempt to justify legislating (whether formally or informally) away a woman's rights. The effect is similar with any group attacked by religious individuals. They are motivated by bigotry and dogmatism, empowered by privilege, and religion is brought in again as justification.

     

    In short: The problem does not lie with religion in general. The problem lies with privileged individuals who attempt to use their religion to justify their dogmatic bigotry.

  6. Right now, I only have one (since I just started back). A green (eventually Grey) Aisha named Tashpi_Lalansour. I plan to eventually have a Stealthy Grarrl who will be called Ushaava, and a Shadow Kougra who will be called Drassado.
