…taylor swift’s public statement was a well-considered cogent refutation of false endorsements posted by the trump campaign, one which pointedly resonates your position and likely merits substantially more respect than you realise…

…all that and you don’t even mention that he’s been an open russian asset for eight years?..

…the blunt truth is that he’s in too deep, as are most of the remaining republican party, and the only way to keep their heads at this point is to double-down on seizing the apparatus of state to dismiss their criminal culpability…

…i don’t think he wants anything other than to keep uncle vlad at bay…

…four police officers could handle a bernie rally; the other seventy-two were probably to manage the fascists trolling for trouble outside…

…how the unholy f*ck el paso ever hosted his rally after that racist shot up the place, i will never understand…

…TSR’s marvel RPG used judge, but i prefer referee from the original D+D little white books…

…invisible sun uses gamemaster but its players are called vislae…

…ah, i may be conflating contextal menus with opening new tabs, since that’s the primary UI mode i use to do so: regardless, any kind of shenanigans which aim to disable application-level UI get under my skin…

…and now you’ve hit upon my other peeve: (mostly shopping) sites coded to disable browsing links in a new tab…

…i don’t know that i shouldn’t’ve seen it, but the 1978 invasion of the body snatchers was my introduction to existential horror at the ripe age of seven years…

…what shouldn’t i have seen?..about a year earlier, a family friend handed-down a big brown grocery bag stacked to the rim with pre-code EC horror comics: that was some teeth-gnashingly gruesome stuff…

…i mean, to be fair he was barely coherent at seventy, too: that’s kind of his whole thing, sputtering out incoherent word salad so his fanbase can infer whatever they want to hear…

“Well, yes, he said that but what he really meant was this. I like him because he tells it like it is.”

…the essentials kit included a pair of one-page flyers: one with free DnDbeyond codes for rest of the series following icespire peak and one with a DnDbeyond discount code for the player’s handbook…

…your campaign needn’t fizzle-out after cryovain!..dragon of icespire peak is only the first part of a four module series, followed by storm lord’s wrath, sleeping dragon’s wake, and divine contention on DnDbeyond…

…the essentials kit was published as a hook to draw parties onto the digital platform, but despite being a fantastic value as a physical boxed set, they did a poor job promoting the latter 3/4 of its adventure content, which were only published digitally…

…i read this in the tone of an exasperated husband responding to his wife waiting impatiently to drag him along to some saturday-afternoon garden tea party…

…well, he can’t back out: his 2016 win was the unintentional outcome of a failed media campaign gone awry, and everything since then has been a mad scramble to avoid prosecution for all the laws he broke along the way and to keep uncle vlad’s kompromat at bay…

…once he loses executive immunity or outlives his usefuless, his whole world comes crashing down: you’ve seen the panic in eyes since late 2016, and most of the remaining GOP have since come along for the same ride…

…i’ve always read it as the former guy but presumed that folks embrace the ambiguity of that f*cking guy…

…likewise, each character is different distillation of some aspect of my own personality; it’s kind of an integral part of the character creation process for me to figure out who they are and properly get into character…

…i, too, had to text-message my coworker…

…are you presuming her gender?..it’s a woman’s right to grow a beard if she chooses…

…just ripples in the carbon cycle, momentary standing waves until we lose coherence…

…new sourcebooks coming next year, but fourth-edition maps kind of butchered the realms and third-edition maps compressed them into a fantasy theme park: i appreciate the proper scale of the fifth-edition map even if broader setting resources mostly entail tracking down older reference material…

…fifth edition does offer officially-sanctioned sourcebooks for the moonshaes, border kingdoms, thay, chult, and icewind dale in addition to the sword coast, though; you just have to delve into the DM’s guild for adept and adventurers’ league material…

…third-edition maps do alright in a pinch as long as you double the distances…
