    The two scenes that still stick in my mind are that one and the underwater bar fight

    WotC WotC (Mistakenly) Issues DMCA Takedown Against Baldur's Gate-themed Stardew Valley Mod

    Yeah, it's this, mostly. We all have our own unique morals and ethics, and thus we all have to decide where our lines are. WotC is a bad business with bad business practices. I think we can all agree with the facts on that. I think @DEFCON 1 is correct that this latest thing doesn't seem at all...

    D&D 5E (2024) What Licensed IP Do You Want For 5E?

    I'd love a more narratively-focused Star Wars RPG; FFG didn't do it for me and SW5e is way more crunchy than I like my 5e to be. I honestly don't think 5e would be a great fit at all but that's probably what we're going to get if we're getting anything new anytime soon. My dream would be a...

    Turns out all you can eat doesn't include takeout :cry:

    IN REMEMBRANCE--2025

    Too many great Val Kilmer performances to name, but an underrated and underappreciated one was definitely Top Secret! Still hilarious to this day.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Well I found his transphobic jokes distasteful, disgraceful, and disrespectful, so I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    I am getting very tired of people comparing "saying this person did bad things" with "doing the bad things themselves". It is not the same damn thing to speak openly and honestly about a person as it is being a bigot. I don't have a problem letting a person's family grieve in peace. I don't...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Is the contention then that he only let his name get attached to a deeply racist product on accident? Like... of course no one should blaming him for writing SFNG, but if hadn't signed on board for Lanasa's scheme in the first place, hadn't let his name be to attached to everything they put...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I mean, "Italy" hasn't really existed as a single entity for that long, like the US Civil War started before Italy unified.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Yeah, is this the appropriate place and time for a reminder that a huge part of the social contract (like, not even in the fine print, it's in pretty big bold letters) is that if you don't want to be spoken ill of in death, you should try to not be very horrible in life? I suppose it never...

    General star wars talk/discussion/complaining

    I honestly struggled with Rogue One through its first half, but I still left the theatre with a huge grin on my face because (a) the third act was phenomenal, and (b) it's hard to make me not like Star Wars

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I find myself saying this more and more often, both online and off, but "interesting" sure is one way to describe it

    D&D 5E (2014) 2024 D&D is 2014 D&D with 4E sprinkled on top

    Maybe simulationism was a mistake

    D&D General The Original Reason for Spell Components: Balancing Bad Jokes

    I don't know if there a specific joke here, but the one that always stuck with me was Taunt, which required the caster to hurl a snail at the target

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Sure, I have flaws too. I'm an incorrigible procrastinator. I can be stuck in my ways and stubborn to resist new ideas. We are not the same.

    Dimension 20 Crosses Over With WWE For New Season

    Xavier's been around the D&D block for quite a bit, so he was an easy call on this. Don't know if the other three have any sort of experience with the game (though now I'm imagining a scene in Fighting with my Family where they all sit around the dinner table to roll some dice). From elsewhere...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    It's so incredibly difficult, when you know you shouldn't say what you want to say; that not being cruel is what makes us different, makes us better; but the temptation to pay cruelty back in kind never really goes away. Especially when the future is looking so bleak as it is. Anything that...
