This should be a climate crime and the management responsible forced to pick up trash or some other appropriate punishment

Oh like when you type “population of tenton” and it returns “Did you mean Trenton? That population is XYZ”

I always assumed they were asking if it was rigged.

Like, i can write function sum(a, b) that always returns 10, and impress people how it’s correct when I pass in 1,9 and 2,8 and 3,7. But if I pass in 7,7 it’ll still return the “right” answer of 10, because it’s rigged and not actually doing math.

I would have sworn he was a lich…

One of the interesting side effects of doing a modern day game is when your party finally kills the lich, they can’t celebrate it openly. Not like a fantasy game where you can parade back to town with the dragon’s head on display.

I like to think some rag tag group of awakened mages have been fighting Cheney for years, and they finally got him.

I think food and having belligerent neighbors might be a problem.

Then do universal basic income. Now people are free to spend a couple hours scooping ice cream without risking their safety. Assuming your basic income is enough to cover a dignified life

Kind of. You only get one extra attack for most classes (and most games, since a minority reach level 11 and also have a class with third attack).

It would be interesting if con only got you an HP bonus at first, fifth, and sometimes 11th level.

I mean, kind of, but the robber is the root cause. They have agency and choose to rob. If it was flood protection, yeah, can’t blame the water.

The Republicans deserve the bulk of the blame

I read this as Rincewind like from discworld, and I was going to say he had a great con score. Lots of cardio.

Nigel Farage should be cut

If I leave my door open and someone robs me, that’s a little bit my fault. But it’s a lot the robber’s fault.

The Republicans have agency. They choose to be human shaped trash bags. They deserve the majority of the blame and scorn. They are the worst people on earth.

I don’t think laws mean anything anymore. There are too many bad faith (pun intended) people in positions of power.

Facts don’t matter. Emotions do. Many decision makers feel that in-person is better, and that’s the end of the discussion.

Fate is the one that comes to mind. Just skills. Your big brawler dude might be like

.

• Fight: 4
• Provoke, Rapport: 3
• Will, Athletics, Notice: 2

.

• High Concept: King of the Ring Fighter
• Trouble: Always a Show Off

.

• Stunts and backgrounds: not going to make them up now but they add more depth

You don’t need to know this guy has exactly 8 or 10 intelligence, or whatever.

NYC transit I think caps at $34/week, which I don’t hit because I walk most places.

When I lived in the suburbs I did some math about the cost. I was paying like $300/mo for transit into the city, plus all the other car coats. Moving in meant rent went up some, but I got rid of the car. Big win, in my case.

There’s that bit in Baldur’s gate 2 where some NPCs decide they can take you on, die, and then reload the game.

People don’t think about things. And when they do, they don’t care. They’re tired. And some of them are kind of stupid.

Like, imagine you’d only had two hours of sleep. Imagine that’s your peak cognitive health. That’s the best you ever get. That’s a lot of people. They’re not going to think a lot of deep thoughts.

DND stats are weird. Only con gets more impactful as you level. Imagine if strength was +damage and carry per level. 18 strength at first level is +3 damage, but fourth level is +12. That might be the path to reinventing Pathfinder, though.

I’ll also say, playing games that don’t have the six stats, or even character attributes at all was really refreshing. Just skills worked fine.

If ww3 happens to the tune of the US collapsing, there’s good odds it ends in a nuclear wasteland. There are too many religious nut jobs in power that probably believe nuking new York City means Jesus will come back or something.

The bullets don’t have to be silver. The GOP aren’t werewolves.
