Good point. And we did manage to elect a Black man by a veritable landslide (twice). Maybe it’s just anecdotal evidence or the particular flavor of MAGA in my area.

I don’t know this particular asshole, but IME, the racism is typically more important than the misogyny for MAGA-types (but it’s a pretty tight race)

It’s with noting that the adventure paths and Paizo one-shots are also all very well-written (from the perspective of a novice GM). I’ve sat down with a group of 11yo kids after giving the adventure a 15-minute glance and been able to run a pretty decent session with next to no prep time.

I believe that’s the point of the original meme. I hesitate to say “whoosh,” as you did eventually get to the the same interpretation, but you definitely took the pretty blatant subtext and made it text.

Then again, I still upvoted you

This is legit why people started to believe in Hell

This, and monotheism. You can’t have an omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent deity if there’s observable evil in the world unless “it’s all part of God’s plan,” and/or “people reap what they sow”

Respectfully.

I would listen to music but in 90% of times that music is controlled by my phone

I highly recommend trying to listen to albums in their entirety, if for no other reason than it makes it easier to turn it on and then not touch anything for the rest of the album. Personally, vinyl works really well for me.

chronic exposure to time dramatically increases your chances of getting terminally old.

It seems pretty clear that they have a significant amount of intrusive thoughts about sexual assault and think that abusing people from a position of power isn’t bad enough to merit removing Neil Gaiman from “nerd canon.”

Honestly, it’s stomach-turning enough to make me think they’re just trolling.

the cake is a lie.

Very well put; this is exactly what I’m talking about.

I’d say part of the difference is that, at this point, the billionaires have left us with just enough to lose. I’m sure the risk of physical violence was still daunting, but when you have nothing left to lose then the prospect of physical harm somehow seems preferable to continuing with the status quo. That seems like an easy thing to say, but I’ve been there before.

Many people can’t miss a few days work without significant financial implications. Billionaires and corporations have us so underwater that we have no choice but to make a big stink where we can and voice our concern, with the occasional weekend march.

I chortled at that one

Nice to see at least one other person understands the definition of “Third World Country”

I can see your point, but I respectfully disagree. I find the desert to fairly beautiful, and at least Bakersfield and Stockton have more of a small-town feel. IMO, LA combines all the negatives of Stockton and Bakersfield into one plasticized, superficial mess; LA’s better at covering up their flaws, but there’s a certain authenticity in owning your blemishes.

While I stand in solidarity with my fellow Californians, LA is objectively the worst part of California.

IIRC, the seven canaries are all disguised ancient gold dragons, and Bahamut himself is known as “the platinum dragon,” so murderhobos should prepared to get their shit rocked.

I hate how accurate this feels

What do these pictures have to do with round bottomed flasks?
