As an oldtime Travller player, I propose: 5ebis or 5bis

You can’t rush the sort of quality aid an outfit like Legal Law provides.

Not only are they never okay, but often they don’t always even exist. Which is to say, the more connected someone is to techbro hustling and right-wing community stuff, the more skeptically I look at claims of receiving such threats. There are just too darned many cases of such types making up...
