I should do this for War Thunder. I don’t seem to get any better at BR 12, but at least I could get swole in the process.

I have two cats who are annoyed and waiting impatiently - The fish I’m cooking for them is too hot to serve.

Only reason why I know this tradition exists is because of an episode of Friends, as I had nothing else to binge while on an offshore rotation: Each trip involved being on a ship for five weeks straight with shoddy internet connection.

I like when Ordinary Things had a look at him. I can’t help but agree with his effort, even if his methods and theories leave a lot to be desired.

9, 11, and 13. We’re playing D&D 3.5, as those are the books I have, and the ruleset I know the best.

I think the reason why it was so successful with mine is because I decided in advance that I wanted the first session to be action focused. No races, no classes, alignment, etc.

While they cleared the “tutorial dungeon”, they found some weapons that they could choose to use, and depending on what they chose, I used that to nudge them in a direction of a suitable class.

After the tutorial they did some traveling and “stumbled across” minor individual quests that lead them to NPCs that could teach them some stuff. Afterwards they became lvl 1 of their chosen class.

I’ve introduced all aspects that way, as I didn’t want to have them get bored in advance by reading more than playing. I just finished introducing them to arcane spells, and they’re now working with a cleric NPC for divine spells, after which dieties is a natural next step. Then comes alignments.

By ignoring him, really.

Nah, not enough room.

I know. I just didn’t recognize the bridge.

Whæææo

Another season of Firefly

EDIT: Or however many seasons it takes to wrap up the story properly. Also, I’ll pay the original actors however much it takes to join the project. And I’ll pay makeup artists and VFX artists however much it takes to make it appear like they haven’t aged.

Maybe Sarah Connor Chronicles as well. That show ended on a cliffhangwr without resolution.

It is obviously a vegetable that grows on/in the ground.

I have weirdly thick skin on and especially under my feet, so I can walk barefoot on ice and snow and not feel cold.

I never came close to describing morphine even half as well as you did. And it still doesn’t do it justice.

Morphine is the best. And that’s what makes it the worst.

You’re 100% correct, and I downvoted you just to prove your point. You can make the most benign and least controversial post and still receive downvotes.

“Who does this guy think he is, claiming that it’s nice to breathe oxygen???” Downvotes and blocks
– Someone on the internet, presumably.

Same. I see the notifications and think “Oh no, here it comes…”

Usually it’s surprisingly positive, but I skim the negative ones, and even think to myself “Yes, I do on fact mean exactly that”, but I can’t be arsed to respond.

TIL…

I shy away from defining myself on the left/right axis, as this depends a lot on where you are and what is defined as the center. But let’s just say I’d love to hang out with Bernie.

And here the rest of us are trying to be as eloquent and articulate as possible, and yet you said it better than any of us ever could.

What does “pinko” mean in this context? (Or any context, for that matter… can’t recall having heard that term before)

True. I just tried to give a short primer. I am indeed part of (to an extent) the “America bad”-camp, but it doesn’t make me sverve so hard I crash into a ditch on the opposite side.

Ah, I wasn’t aware of said defederation. Good on Blåhaj
