like I said, I didn’t care when they called Erica’s character a “rogue” instead of a “thief” in season 4, because it’s a different name for the same class, so whatever. But, this bit in particular bothers me because if they’re bringing up classes that didn’t exist at all yet, then they picked...

And you responded with a bunch of completely unrelated rambling, defending against an accusation I never made - namely, that you dislike when media changes - and immediately went on to… complain about the ways D&D changed. I think in tennis they call that an unforced error.

To be fair, the exaggerated degrees of bullying are partly coming from the show’s influences - Steven Spielberg, Stephen King… possibly other artists with different spellings of the same first name… anyway, murderous bullies were a staple feature of the entertainment that Stranger Things is...

That sounds awesome!

I didn’t? Looks like a question to me. Who’s the one making assumptions here?

This is a fascinating way to answer the question “are edgy kids saying Blue Sky Platform instead of woke now?”

The Blue Sky community is literally just the Twitter community who were tired of all the nazis there. Not hard to go further left of “I would prefer not to talk to nazis.”

Is “Blue Sky Platform” what the edgy kids are saying instead of “Woke” these days?

The thread is about a romance book. Maybe you’re not familiar with the genre, but sex is like… the point of romance books. They have lots of other stuff in them, and they don’t always have actual “on camera” sex, but they’re still fundamentally and primarily about sex.

Then all language is artificial by that definition

Yes and no. I’d like if there was a bit more mechanical distinction that wasn’t just drawbacks, but through most of the game’s history Small size mechanical distinctions have mostly been negative, with only a few positives. It has generally felt unbalanced in favor of Medium, so I’m ok with it...

As one might have guessed based on my title, I freaking love goblins. I love funny little guys in general, really, but goblins are my favorite variety of funny little guy. From the list in the OP, halflings are probably my second-favorite, followed by kobolds, then gnomes, and autognomes would...

Singular they and them isn’t even a younger generation thing, unless you’re over 700 years old. People objecting to the singular they and them is an extremely new development.

English has had they and them as singular personal pronouns since the 14th century, and most English speakers use the singular they and them in casual conversation all the time without even thinking about it.
