They're certainly not building spaceships out of lumber. Even their more mundane structures seem to be largely stone and metalwork. (Side thought... do they have central heating or AC? Do they care about such things? They have braziers but not *that* much flame, and such things, though mundane, would certainly seem miraculous to their subjects.)

One of the major reasons for logging, fuel, is quite industrially useless because of the aforementioned Naquadah.

Ultimately, what I would suspect is that it's not the Goa'uld per-se doing the logging, but rather it's being used by their subjects. There are extensive settlements of various subjects, and for all they may be slaves they need at least some level of housing and fuel, and that ends up equating to a lot of trees, which, because you will still need trees in a few decades, means you want to replant and otherwise manage your forests. So on that level it makes sense, though you'd expect them to be currently logging more.

Why it doesn't come up in the plot more often is also derived from this: Timber isn't a strategic industry. It doesn't go into starships or other Goa'uld war material - the most you could accomplish through attacks is, perhaps, depriving the Jaffa (who are already resistant to environmental troubles) of heating fuel, but there are sufficient reserves (both of material and personnel) to bring in more.

also he didn't wanna say he let himself get bit to win an argument that he lost so badly he's in the emergency room, so he was like "a rat did it" and the nurse turns her head 12 degrees to the left and sees my bloody mouth. and goes "yeah okay that happens"

and we did get the barbarian bite attack to be d6+Strength Modifier. I'm also now engaged to this guy and this campaign I get to be the dm!

A Dallas teacher rearrested Monday for his alleged connection after the fact in a July 4 shooting outside an Alvarado detention center was released again on bond Wednesday — but his lawyer says he was wrongfully accused of violating his bond conditions. Dario Sanchez, 32, has been arrested three separate times on the same charge of tampering or fabricating with evidence, according to court records. His most recent arrest included a new charge of hindering prosecution of terrorism. He was first accused of tampering with evidence by deleting texts from Signal and Discord messaging apps related to what happened July 4. While out on bail, Sanchez was rearrested Monday after monitoring software identified "concerning internet history, best characterized as explosive construction internet queries." His bond was raised to $1 million. Now, after a hearing Wednesday, his bond was again lowered to $150,000. But his attorney, Frank Sellers, told KERA News the internet searches that landed Sanchez back in jail were conducted by his bond supervisor, not Sanchez. “This case is not a good case for the state,” Sellers said. “Dario is innocent, he did nothing wrong, and he certainly did nothing wrong in Johnson County, a place he’s never been before." The bond supervisor, Richard Coyle, told KERA News he isn’t allowed to comment on cases. KERA News reached out to the Johnson County District Attorney’s office and will update this story with any response. After his third arrest, part of Sanchez’s bond conditions included being monitored for "gun violence, anti-government and any violence in general," according to court documents shared with KERA News. The “concerning internet history” included how to melt and make molds out of plastic, researching radio-controlled transmitters, the use of Nintendo Game Boy batteries as power sources for trigger devices, temperature and pressure sensors, and various small electronic circuit boards, court records allege. But according to Sellers, Sanchez only searched remaking toy cars and batteries for a Game Boy on his cell phone. Court documents claim Sanchez searched, “is the 900 mAh battery from a (Game Boy) capable of being used in a trigger device," but Sellers said that was a search from Coyle. Coyle then took a screenshot of his own search and sent it to the district attorney, leading to a violation of Sanchez’s probation and his rearrest, Sellers said. He also said the screenshot from Coyle’s computer did not look the same as the screenshots from Sanchez’s phone since it did not include the monitoring software. “I think that whoever filed the motion, failed to do due diligence to see what exactly truly happened, and instead just jumped the gun and saw it and obtained [the warrant] for Dario's arrest warrant,” Sellers said. Sanchez now has a jury trial set for Jan. 12, court records show. Court documents in July allege as many as 12 people dressed in all black were shooting fireworks towards the Prairieland Detention Center July 4 when correctional officers called dispatch. When Alvarado police arrived, a person in the woods opened fire at the Alvarado officer and correctional officers, hitting the police officer in the neck, according to court records. Seventeen people have been arrested in connection to the shooting, including Sanchez, who was not present at the protest. Sellers emphasized Sanchez did not take part in planning or participating in the protest. “This whole thing is an abuse of power,” Sellers said. “When the people in power start to use the law in ways that are perverse as they’ve been using them here, that causes unrest.”

There are also CR2025 coin batteries inside the cartridges themselves (for data retention and clock functions), not sure on the capacity of those.

But then why are they referring to it generically as a 'game boy battery'.

why complicated? why not just call it what it is, "stealing" if you really believe that is stealing then you can just say that it's stealing.

the word "complicated" is there because the person doesnt understand how it works, and yet they still want to call it stealing but because they cant explain how it is just plain and simple stealing they have to add the word "complicated" there to imply there are depths they just dont have the time to go into. to imply "yes this might not seem like stealing but it totally is, the reasons why are just too complicated for me to go into".

"Well, it's complicated-"

Like, do older (by millennia, no doubt) succubi bemoan the young girls and their trashy tribal tat-influenced marks? Is there an argument as to whether the old heart-and-bat-wings design is ‘timelessly elegant’ or ‘old and fuddy-duddy’ or even ‘boring as dishwater brown hair’?

Are their old-guard succubi insisting that, ‘if your crest doesn’t have a heart-shape of some kind as it’s central element, all you have is a mortal tattoo, young whippersnapper’?

Do Social Justice Succubi debate whether the term ‘womb tattoo’ and the heart-and-stylized-ovaries-and-tubes style are cissexist, or just not applicable for a race of demons that swap sexes like clothing?

Taking this sort of thing too seriously is a fascinating opportunity for comedy.
