No argument from me. It was a really creative setting, and I loved what they did with the traditional races. The earth world was so creepy.

Sweet, I was waiting for you to get to these. And the sequels are better, and the second set of sequels even more so, at least as I recall. And I know it’s not D&D, but the Death Gate Cycle was wicked good.

MTG is the candidate for people who saw Deliverance and thought “that’s how life should be”.

That’s just smart. I don’t know whether her decision was strong or brave (I think it was, but that’s not as relevant), but it was absolutely rational and smart. She’s going to live in that body for the rest of her life, and risking death or serious injury just for yet another medal isn’t worth it.

I guess, but he’s been acting for decades and if he’s actually used the word you would think someone would have let him know.

This I can imagine, it was like a guilty pleasure for him.

I guess I could be wrong, but his explanation just seemed completely unbelievable to me.

His first story was obviously bullshit, there’s no way he could not have understood that the word was not acceptable. I’m willing to believe that he’s used the word, but there’s no way he needed his daughter to tell him it wasn’t okay.

The warrior icon appears to be a bat-a-rang.

“Vaccines, which remain in abundant supply, are the most effective defense against the virus, and they will always remain voluntary—never forced—in the State of Texas.”

Fucking pathetic.

Not cooking to death is sexy af.

How will we ever remember how bad racism is unless we commemorate racists?

I don’t know how comprehensive they are, but there are definitely projects around that: https://dsl.richmond.edu/panorama/redlining/#loc=5/39.1/-94.58

“Removing these covenants is rewriting history! If we don’t remember our past, we’re doomed to repeat it! People who are removing these are the real racists! I don’t approve of the covenants, but this isn’t the right process!” - some bullshit grievance actor in the near future.

You have to wish they had the same amount of sympathy for all the other people who spend months or years in pretrial detention, sometimes for things that barely count as crimes.

This is fantastic news and lets hope there’s more to come. I do wonder if there will be a bunch of pharmacists who refuse to participate because birth control makes them feel icky.

This post seems like spam. Lovely spam, wonderful spam, but still spam.

I think it’s become too easy to just default to “oh, that’s Marxist CRT, they want to turn all of our children trans”. Makes it easier to get resentful without having to engage with reality.
