    How's the swim cap? I'm thinking about getting one for my kid but my wife says they're a real hassle to get on/off.

    I've never had to help her with one, so no idea! She didn't have one until she started competing.

    In my experience it's no harder than socks (or a condom). Pull long hair into a bun like loop. Fold up the bottom half of the cap. Place on small child's head and roll down. Tuck in any stray hairs.

    Casey, if you ever need to help her with the swim cap, I'd be disappointed if you didn't use the trick where you fill the cap with water first and pop it on.

    Also, they're fragile. As we found out when one broke at a meet and we didn't have a spare.

    Aren't they made of rubber? I would've thought it would be more resilient than that.

    I assumed some kind of latex.

    Depending on if you are trying to keep her hair dry or just out of her face they also make them out of swimsuit material too and I've found those are easier.

Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close.

Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.

Correction in comments, I'm still mad Ok, I found out the 5e allosaurus from Tomb of Annihilation was only CR2 and was outraged, so I made a comparison of a D&D character and allosaurus specimen MOR 693. Then I compared the allosaurus to a polar bear, also CR2. The bear has 5HD and the allosaurus has 6HD. So, I take it back. CR 2 is fine.
