That was basically the rule of my first DM, and I’ve been playing ever since. He wanted the players to get a sense of epic adventure—’cause we were all playing seasoned adventurers, so we should be able to do some crazy stuff—and he basically said, “If you can justify it with an appropriate dice roll, and you roll…

From what I’ve read he really was a decent, progressive person, who legitimately had no place for racism in his (or anyone else’s) life. I know in the Senate he worked to remove exemptions Congress had put in place for itself from anti-discrimination laws, for instance.

The real story behind that is actually better in my opinion. She actually was using the “white” restrooms anyways, and only later did someone complain about it. They brought it up to her and she ignored it and went about her way without giving it a second thought. I think the real life version makes her sound much…

Fuckin’ A.

Just saw this movie over the weekend. I was floored. She seems to down play this honor but I think she earned every brick used to make it.

Despite loving the show, I avoid Rick and Morty fandom like the plague. But anecdotally speaking the thing I’ve noticed about people who idolize and defend Walter White and Tony Soprano is that so much of their admiration for those characters has to do very specifically with how they treat women—how certain they are…

Pastor claims ignorant racism is a real problem, parishioners prove him right. 

I’m not one of the faithful but give this man a church. Osteen’s congregation could use some new leadership. Just sayin’.

Another example of church people being good Christians, bless their hateful little shriveled up hearts.

The military actually has far more strict rules on shooting than police in America. In general, you can’t just shoot at someone if you feel threatened.

Predictions:

Every other damned thing in the world is being digitized, why not electronic gun holsters? The strap doesn’t unlock unless the body cam is running.

I assume Jake Gyllenhaal is busy?

That’s some pretty confident armchair quarterbacking. You’re a terrible person.

Not in the middle of a terrorist attack (and this white supremist is indeed a terrorist). Emergency personnel themselves would give that advice. If you’re unfortunate enough to wind up in the middle of any sort of act of public mass violence: if you are able to run, you are supposed to RUN. This is recommended to…

Funny story: years ago my husband and I talked about our celebrity “hall passes” and his was Lynda Carter (really Wonder woman but same) and his first job in the video game industry was with Bethesda Softworks. After finding out that she was married to the owner of the company I told him I cancelled the pass.

Lynda Carter is 65 years old.

He had a girlfriend before he married his wife, therefore he doesn’t really love his wife.

I don’t think it’s about American audiences, since plenty of US TV shows have openly LGBT characters these days. From what I gather, the problem is that big-budget feature films these days can’t succeed without a lot of overseas investment and overseas box-office profits, and a lot of their investors and target…

There’s literally no better time to include queer characters than in a movie set in a non-colonized, non-European country, where sexuality doesn’t need to be “traditional”.
