My current group is 5 men, two women. Speaking as someone who’s played every edition of D&D since she was 8 years old ... it’s really hard to find other women that want to do it for whatever reason.

I’ll be doing that on Sunday! I’m DMing for the first time in probably uh ... 25 years. And I wrote my own adventure. This should be exciting. I figure either the party will die, or everyone else will. I’m betting on “everyone else”.

Oh, okay, so you actually thought I didn’t know where eggs came from. Not at all condescending, my bad!

It’s okay, you’ll get it someday. Look how well you’re doing with pointless condescension!

Of course, the pasta is probably egg noodles, but hey.

Yes thank you I understand how eggs work. Humor is hard.

I had that chainsaw toy. Which is kind of a random toy, now that I think about it. We did live in a wooded area, but I don’t think my parents owned an actual chainsaw, so why’d I have a toy one?

It takes that much to ... um ... water the eggs?

The year MY daughter got her HPV vaccine, she had her very first straight-A report card. I demand that you also include my anecdotal evidence in your list of side effects. “May cause improved GPA.”

I’m not seeing manipulation so much as adults enforcing the ridiculous and immature desires of a 15 year old. I mean, when I was 15, I thought I’d literally die if I couldn’t marry MacGyver. Now imagine I had adults in my life that enabled my liaison with a guy 20+ years older than me. That’s the kind of thing I’m

To me, it sounds like a lot of this stuff is the kind of thing 15-year-old boys talk about, and imagine, but with no real basis in reality. But he’s got these two adults saying “Yeah man, you want some hot tits? We can get you that. You should totally get that.” And he’s buying it, because these adult men are telling

I absolutely think this kid is being victimized as well. I mean, they’re maybe procuring adult women for him? Hello, he’s also possibly being raped here.

Yeah, this seems like the kind of thing 15-year-old boys talk about, but don’t actually do. I feel like the adult men are enabling all of this; turning typical dumb adolescent fantasies into reality.

My ex is Hispanic, and as far as I can tell he’s “reserving judgment” on Trump. He’s gonna vote Republican, he just hasn’t decided which candidate he supports yet.

You can tell it’s Utopia because everyone’s wearing pastels!

They should have shelled out to use Barlowe’s concept art. Cut-rate Tim Curry was so not doing it for me.

I think I recall someone saying it was a browser issue. I’m on Chrome and have no trouble starring anything that’s not starred.

“What if ... what if we added a love triangle with the farmer, his fiancee, and his dead wife!”

The farmer was the biggest WTF for me. In the book, Rikki Stormgren is Secretary-General of the UN. Also, he’s like 50 and dies before the Overlords reveal themselves but I guess they didn’t want to cycle through their cast in 3 episodes. Compressing the timeline like they did just doesn’t work.

There’s at least two: Karellen, and the one who is hanging out at Boyce’s party called Rasheverak.
