I’m not expecting anything even remotely sensible.

GURPS only looks complicated on paper. After a few sessions, it will “click” with most people and the combat/conflicts will flow much faster than any other game system. Of course, it slows back down every time a new person joins the group. But it’s totally worth it to have a game system that has rules to handle any…

54 year old. Tail end baby boomer.

“A self-described fiscal conservative, Cagle—a 54 year old Tulsa, OK, high school English teacher who teaches pre-Advanced Placement and AP classes—believes that cops get a bad rap and said that he understands why the Republican Party has taken hold of power in recent years. “People look at their taxes, and they say,…

Oklahoma is on the verge of not being operational so they might as well shut it down.

I’m not expecting anything even remotely sensible.

I’m expecting right wing talking points, arguments that we put to bed back in the 90s, and for Trump to do nothing but spout completely nonsensical, irrelevant bullshit the entire time.

Uhhhh, do you not think the University of Texas is a gov’t institution?

Unions are democracy in action in the workplace. Any Democrat who is anti-union is not a progressive and does not belong in an opposition party to the corporate power that is destroying this country. Shame on the DCCC for supporting an actual union buster. That should raise as much disgust as supporting a Klan member.

Seeing this genuinely makes me miss playing RIFTS.

I can’t figure out if he’s really chill and cool or an enormous weirdo. Kinda want to drink a few beers with him kinda afraid he’ll make a jacket out of my skin.

Dan Harmon drunkenly walked in on an oscar party at his friend’s house.

I’m curious: Where is the factual census-based data that establishes that no person of color was present in Bohemia at the time of the game’s setting?

Because, y’know, saying the creator’s statements are based on “facts” doesn’t magically make it so.

The difference between you assuming my emotional state and my…

Yeah, no. American conservatives have been playing to the racists and the sexists and the nationalists for decades. First in the era of the Civil Rights movement when Dixiecrats went R, then later on when Jerry Falwell really brought together conservatives and religion under Moral Majority.

Y’know what? Thanks for taking the time to break things down to the level you did; there’s a tendency in current social discourse to immediately take the most emotionally-reflexive and intellectually simple reaction to any situation, and I really appreciate that you slowed down and broke this situation into its…

I see your point, but I think it’s a bit disingenuous to act as if it’s completely different. After all, have you met a “liberal” Alt-Right person?

The American right wing has basically gone from slavers to Jim Crow-ers to the people who call twelve year olds thugs after they get shot by police, so I mean...just cause you don’t sing the quiet part loud doesn’t mean you aren’t part of the same song.

People shop for a car way more infrequently than virtually any other major item other than a house. Blaming them for not knowing things like destination charge is included in MSRP is specious.

I don't agree with that, simply because if they were genuine nice guys. They wouldn't have a hidden agenda such as the one mentioned in your post.

I just broke up with a guy like this. He's definitely got rapist potential and I don't know what to do about it. I've had real discussions with him about consent, entitlement and other things, but I really don't think he understands.

Exactly. Being drunk removes your filter. It doesn't turn you into a different person.
