    D&D 5E (2014) The October D&D Book is Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons

    I propose that a group of dragons be called a Treasury.

    Richard Branson’s space flight

    First of all, let's clarify some things. Branson's flight was a Vomit Comet. That's all. Spaceship Two doesn't reach the Karman Line. It's the TWA plane from 2001. Musk and Bezos, meanwhile, keep talking about self-sustaining extraterrestrial colonies without acknowledging that for the...

    Richard Branson’s space flight

    This! Especially as far as Elongated Muskrat is concerned. Muskrat likes to style himself as some great inventor on par with Nikola Tesla but history proves otherwise. He is, as many forget, the man who held a much-ballyhooed press conference to announce the Hyperloop, which basically...

    What are you listening to?

    I've been on an early Stones jag lately. The Rolling Stones No. 2 has some really good rock 'n roll that shows exactly why they were the South Side's answer to The Beatles. "Time Is On My Side" is the best known track but "Down The Road Apiece" is just an amazingly fun toe-tapping song.

    D&D General Poll: Should a poster be expected to read (or at least skim) all posts before posting in a thread?

    I didn't read any of the comments on this thread. I say no. Can anyone tell me about grappling rules for 3E?

    Black Widow

    I'll grant that I had a sub-optimal viewing experience. Namely, with the volume somewhat low because my kids were asleep upstairs. But I'd be like "Oh... another improbable car chase gun fight. Okay, I guess I'll pick up toys for a few minutes." On the other hand, the Disney+ series all have...

    Black Widow

    I tried watching it last night. Came across as an hour and a half of Designated Girl Fights. Pretty formulaic. I wasn't overly engaged with it and turned it off about halfway through. From what I could gather, Taskmaster is kind of like a Terminator robot but he's just as bad at assassinating...

    D&D 5E (2014) Microtransactions During the Adventuring Day

    Loot crates were invented by someone who looked at a claw game and said "I can do better."

    D&D 5E (2014) Microtransactions During the Adventuring Day

    That raises more questions than it answers. Do you get 1 +1 per pie? Or 12 +1s? Does extra cheese stack, giving a +2? What about stuffed crust? Does parmesan cheese give any bonus? This is a highly problematic system. I can see a rules lawyer giving the DM a large white pizza with extra cheese...

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    His full name is Michael MESEEKS. That's right. They summoned a Meseeks to fix TSR's public image.

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    Then again, they're trying to roll low.

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    At this rate, we'll get TSR 6E before D&D 6E.

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    As @Thaumaturge pointed out, it contains a typo. So yes... It's them. Or "they" if you are a stickler for grammar.

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    So now does it branch into a bad take version of Pathfinder?

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    He's managing to utterly destroy the TSR brand name.
