I remember thinking every single thought possible and them branching out infinitely from each individual one of those and also thinking the opposite of them all at the same time.
I ate a bunch of caffeine pills once. Between bouts of intense nausea I remember being in bed, feeling distinctly like a giant rectangular slab of jello, with my emotions and memories being little pockets of jelly suspended in my form.
No word or sentence. 🎉🎉🎉 colors the title to influence the mood a tad though, wouldn’t you say?
I think they’re referring to this post, including the title. Probably not the content of the article itself
Propaganda doesn’t just mean “lies”, sometimes propaganda is editorialization.
Are you suggesting that someone whose favorite book is a collection of Hitler’s speeches is going to follow Hitler’s methodology? I dunno, kind of a stretch.
Is this a Monster Factory reference?
There’s a sticking point that no one’s been able to explain to me:
If you’re in the minority, revolution is against the democratic will of the people.
If you’re in the majority, you have the votes to actually accomplish something with reform. It’s not like we live in a monarchy, reform is possible under our system.
If reform isn’t working to bring about your goals, either your goals aren’t popular enough, or they are popular but the people lack the will and organization to vote for them.
If the people lack the will and organization to vote effectively, they certainly lack the will and organization to topple the government.
My area of expertise is managing complex systems and change implementation. I sincerely don’t understand how revolution is supposed to work where reform doesn’t. No one has been able to give me an answer that doesn’t bill down to idealistic hope. How is this revolution supposed to be implemented, and why can’t we build the foundation for revolution while simultaneously using the tools we have for reform? Wouldn’t widespread support for reform be the best possible proof of consensus?
Oh sure not just for injuries, in fact I only very rarely use them. But I’d wager that anyone who is dissatisfied with the depth of D&D 5e on this one aspect is probably similarly dissatisfied on others. The initial draw for me, for instance, was the extensive Skill list and detailed character creation.
Frankly I think the “fiddly” reputation is overblown. Sure, if you try to use every mechanic from the beginning then yeah it’s a lot. But the basic Success Roll mechanic is dead simple, arguably simpler than 5e. If you start with the basics and only add more complex stuff as you want/need it, it’s really not that fiddly.
You could add a bunch of homebrew mechanics to D&D. Or, you can do what I did and switch to a system that incorporates that kind of granularity from the start. GURPS has tons of rules for these kinds of injuries.
Only when people act like self-righteous dickheads, doesn’t drive you mad quite as fast.
And presumptuously colors uninhabited areas.
There’s no bad logic, this is just your personal taste. I don’t think “Diet Coke” is blatant product placement. I think it’s just someone mislabeling a 40 so the image doesn’t get flagged. Diet Coke being the label they chose could be the result of anything: their personal beverage of choice, some meme, themselves being the subject of actual product placement, anything.
Reading the intent as deliberate is bad logic.
How can you be so selfish as to go on such a rant when there are starving kids in Africa?
If I got upset every time someone acted somewhat less than optimally, I’d go mad in a single day.
I’m thinking maybe someone shared the image someplace that had content restrictions on depicting alcohol use. That’s definitely supposed to be a bottle of malt liquor.
The strikers. And since most of the working class lives paycheck to paycheck, a war chest is necessary to pay the bills during the strike. That’s largely what union dues are for.
For most people, a strike that lasts long enough to force concessions will lead to losing their job entirely, and likely being evicted as well if they don’t have another source of income. You could gamble on there being too many evictions to enforce, but it is a gamble and many people will certainly be affected regardless.
Strikes are a great tool, but the short term cost is mostly borne by the strikers. Effective implementation requires resources and organization.
