    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    It's easy enough to adapt the toxic waste:New Jersey: : lawyers:California joke... Why does Australia have the worst venomous animals and Britain have the worst TERFs? Australia chose first. Only a smidge more seriously, that wouldn't be a bad idea (particularly since the food has gotten a lot...

    D&D 5E (2014) I feel like the surveys gaslit WotC about """"Backwards Compatibility""""

    So.... the kids today are like us? I mean how many of us older people like current hit music the same way we did with the music we listened to when we were kids? How many of us feel that the version of Scooby Doo we watched as kids was better than later versions? It's all the same generational...

    Wizards of the Coast Says That China Tariffs Will Have Minimal Impact on D&D

    Spoilers Star Wars: Andor season 2

    I think that's part of the point. There are many levels at which gears are turning to bring us to the Rebel Alliance - and there are points at which they intersect such as Cassian Andor himself. Some are quietly but achingly turning in the halls of privilege like the Mothma estate on Chandrila...

    D&D 5E (2014) I feel like the surveys gaslit WotC about """"Backwards Compatibility""""

    I think there's substantial backward compatibility and I think it was a worthwhile goal. I'm currently running two games with 2024 rules and PC classes/subclasses but 2014-based adventures. I'm using updated monster stats from the 2024 Monster Manual. Things are working just fine. It's just a...

    D&D 5E (2024) What would Olive Ruskettle's class be in 2024?

    For all the fuss they went through back in the day to deny her being technically a bard but her calling herself a bard... why not just make her a bard?

    Good Television Mystery Series

    Longmire has been a favorite of mine. It's on Netflix.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I do have more people on my ignore list these days. I find there are some people who get on my nerves a lot faster now than, oh, say, a decade ago before ... <waves his hands around at "all this">

    The Fantastic Four: First Steps | New Official Trailer

    Maybe they're going for that Jack Paar end of the talk show spectrum rather than Dick Cavett?

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Just checked in on one of those threads (you know the ones). I have my settings configured to show me 20 posts per page and there were only 3 visible to me. Yep, glad I'm not following that thread.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 - Do magic weapons bypass resistance now?

    I can see what you're getting at here - you don't want to present the PCs with a challenge that can't be overcome. But I also agree with jgsugden here: If the only solution your players (or you) can think of is an appropriate weapon for ablating hit points faster (or at all), then you've got a...

    What Game Publishers Are Saying About The Tariffs

    There are people out there with very immature attachments to political/tribal allegiances. As mild as the criticism in Monte Cook Games's post may be, it might as well be saying really bad people saying mean things about Mommy. Any thing critical is a virulent attack that deserves condemnation...

    Star Wars Rewatch

    In some degrees it hasn't changed, but I think one nice thing about the various SW TV series out there is the broadening of Star Wars aesthetics. Even looking at Andor season 2, we've already got some very different environments in effect from Coruscant and Chandrila to Mina-Rau, Yavin IV, and...

    How Fantastical Do You Like Your Fantasy World?

    I like it to feel grounded with a few dashes of fantastic because that makes things more relatable and predictable to my players. For example, I like my castles to still be castles because magic and beasts that negate most of the defenses are still rare enough that they are expensive to exploit...

    D&D 5E (2014) Question for folks who use D&D Beyond: How well does it work with the new rules?

    Is there something you can help her redesign with her character so that she's less fairly ineffective at what she wants to do? Rearrange her stats to emphasize strength and deemphasize non-buff spell casting? Toughness feat to boost her hit points? Suggest a couple level dip into barbarian? Kit...

    Jeremy Crawford Also Leaving D&D Team Later This Month

    But they don't need a new bassist - last I knew Adam Clayton was healthy. A backup on the drums for Larry Mullen, however, might be a good idea given his various injuries.
