One week until Election Day. America deserves better than the pedophile protection party. Knock doors. Make calls. Get your friends to vote. Let’s elect Democrats up and down the ballot and finally make Trump release the Epstein files.

It's basically just touching base when playing tag. Either a momentary reprieve, or a permanent one if they win. Seems unfeasible for a democracy in the long run.

I have an AI agent that logs every negative comment someone makes about me online. Tomorrow morning, my AI agent will summarize it and send their pure concentrated hate to my inbox. I will then film myself crying on the toilet while I read it, and send this video to all of my ex girlfriends.

Bryan Johnson is a tool

Weird thing about the ads and trailers before the movie (30 minutes of them, FFS) is that they are flogging two separate bible-beating stories by Jim Caviezel. Some people just get fixated I guess.

Like why not separate these two things out and let them hit at different times for maximum propaganda effect. Are they just getting pooped out so fast they are filling the bowl up at the same time?

My first 5 TTRPGs played: 1. Basic D&D 2. Advanced D&D 3. Robotech 4. Palladium Fantasy 5. Warhammer Fantasy

My first 5 (TT) RPGs played: 1. AD&D (2nd) 2. Marvel Super Heroes (Advanced) 3, D&D (Basic) 4. TMNT (Palladium) 5. Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game The more systems I’ve played, the more I appreciate the old Marvel system.

I don't see how anyone didn't expect this to happen though. Baltimore has been driving out their natural population of sewer clowns after those damned IT movies. When there are no sewer clowns other invasive populations are free to move in and cause havoc on the environment.

So if data centers are "mandated" by the president to make their own electricity, this means that communities can have data centers fined or removed for violating this presidential decision? It seems like this "mandate" should be brought up in the town halls.

When he learns English he’ll be a powerhouse. In the meantime, going all-in in support of data centres just before the Midterms is a bold move.

I don't know how many of you are currently in the all-too-brief phase of reading your kid bedtime stories, but I encourage you to take your time with it. Don't just rush through, ask them which background character is their favorite, what they would do if they were the character, etc.

You'd be amazed at how much they want to talk about this sort of thing, and it's not just listening to your voice cadence. Marginally connected to my usual RPG schpiels for obvious reasons.

They have so many thoughts to express that you might never realize if you just plow through a read. It gives them a glimpse of the idea that a book should open your mind up to more of what is going on that just what is in the text.

I think it's neat that if you give the party an expendable item like a charged wand, scrolls, potions, they tend to hoard them. If you have an item with daily charges, they tend to use them as not to be a waste. Then if there is an unlimited usage item, they forget all about it.

the point of ttrpg is to have fun with people. bad rules get in the way of having fun. somewhat bad rules make having fun too easy. a lot of the time fun is about having a bad time on purpose. but the most important thing to remember is that you are having fun wrong and i hate you for it.

So this works perfectly but I am learning that you have to host discord bots. I have a site that does it for free BUT you have to reactivate the bot every 24 hours. It works perfectly but I am going to have to consider if more permanent hosting is worth it.

I hope that the day it happens is far enough away from other holidays that we can all take off to celebrate every year. Not to be picky, but it would be nice.

I am just not feeling up to the October surprise planned for us this year. It's all just too personal. This was more fun when it was some contrived sex scandal every year or a gaffe.

If I put this shit in any of my games I would get pilloried for being too silly.

Behold, a 3000 year old Chinese ceremonial bronze axe bearing a human face of which archeologists described as "fearsome and fierce".

Weird to consider that the coming zombie plague that obsessed media like the walking dead and so many others is coming true via AI meat proxy behavior. No virus, fungus, or magic needed. Just good old fashioned intellectual abdication.

It's amazing to me that no one has made Vampires close to the ones in the Strain that swell up with blood like mosquitoes, but where the stored blood just gives them huge ass cheeks. Are there no deranged perverts on this site?

As someone who has spend two decades of my life trying to read all the RPG systems, as someone who has written systems, please, don't fucking bother, it's mostly nonsense. Read what you need, ignore the rest. The rules are never as important as the stuff you and your friends make up as you play.
