@VABourbonFan @dakplswin3 @scotsandlit @GrageDustin You seem to be projecting this desire for children to die. I mean where the hell, and I mean seriously, where the hell did you get the idea that this Jonathan guy would abuse his children from. That's pretty fucking creepy that's where your mind goes with kids.

@VABourbonFan @dakplswin3 @scotsandlit @GrageDustin so you'll... laugh when children die? You find that funny, children dying? That's pretty messed up. One could say beyond redemption. I mean after all you're wanting children to die for sins of the father apparently.

Since Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is officially being reported as a favorite to become the VP pick for Kamala Harris. Here he is pictured from his DUI arrest where he was going 96 in a 55. He then lied to police about being deaf in an attempt to avoid his arrest.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony Like the older folks at least, i've had 2 or 3 younger, they asked for, way too much. Even starting in 5e they adjusted to the tactic way I run 3.5 without fail after a bit. Obviously personal experience but I don't think 5e ruins players if they're serious to start with.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony Obviously not gonna watch 100 30 minute long videos, skimmed a few, most i'd agree with with DMs but as someone who has occasionally taken on older people who started on 5e. I do disagree with a handful of your points specifically as the storyteller one to some degree.

In case anyone has missed it: Woke WotC, after literally years of claiming that old D&D Orcs were just a racist substitute for black people somehow, when finally in charge, INSTANTLY make Orcs Mexicans. In an art piece by a Canadian who as far as I know has no Latino identity.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony My world has major events that if the players don't address, well I mean they could but it'd be pretty bad. If demons start invading from some mishap, it'll only get worse until addressed, and while npcs will address it to some degree, it's a hook for them to address specifically

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony define taught wrong, other than questionable lore things which already vary with every setting ever, what are they taught. I also know very little of commies who have any interest in the OSR, maybe that's because i don't stick around their circles but i've not had to deal with em

For starters, because new gamers are being taught wrong on purpose. Beyond that control over DND is only part of their ambition. That's why for years they've been trying to either/alternately infiltrate/destroy the osr. Finally because they're communists, and Communists need to be thwarted at every turn in every aspect of everything they do.

@NECacophony @KasimirUrbanski The only thing the idiot is doing is bringing attention to a product, thereby more than likely increasing sales instead of letting it the fuck die.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony and last I checked me, my players, my friends all didn't buy WOTC shit, and they lost 25% of their total revenue, they're in the go broke stage, other than laughing to ourselves what purpose does bitching about every little change they make serve other than to be a snowflake

The art piece that inspired this thread is NOT politics staying out of design. It was very much a politically purposeful design by the people in control of D&D. In every aspect of the art: the non-traditional fantasy style, the intentional elements meant to create the imagery of a minority culture, and the presentation of murderous Savage monsters as just friendly family loving people who you would be the bad guy to kill subverting the entire concept of Western heroism in the D&D tradition, are all HUGELY POLITICAL CHOICES. It maps the agenda of what the people in power in Wizards of the Coast want.

@NECacophony @KasimirUrbanski i'm waiting to hear a response to how cringe products coming out effect my 3.5 books, or most of the OSR products i buy. Though it sounds like the argument is going to devolve to normies as a resource or some shit. As if I care about normies playing 5e.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony Regardless, Answer me the simple fucking question how anything some cringeass 5e players or idfk throw your favorite leftwing writer TTRPG here, affects me, my 3.5e games, or the people I play with.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony You've made up one fuck of a backstory for me in your head. Congrats being a writer but don't apply it to real life. First idk even how you're fighting ..wtf is entryists, newbies you mean?

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony I only made fun of you for using commie rhetoric, which I would think would pretty firmly seat me as probably not agreeing with the person I can only assume is closer to communist than both of us probably.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony Did i accuse you of it specifically? No, and I don't believe in your collective guilt bullshit but i'm still allowed to point out how you immediately dog piled me as if I agree with the other person for whatever reason.

@KasimirUrbanski @NECacophony ...so anyone you disagree with is a sock puppet? Yeah, okay. Let me just ask a real question, as someone whose never touched 5e. Why should I give a flying fuck what 5e or any of the new D&D editions do. How does that effect what I play.

@AxeltheInferno @NECacophony The classic argument of the sock puppet plant. "You'll only really beat the people trying to wreck your hobby by totally ignoring them and letting them continue to do exactly what they want with the normies!"

@NECacophony @KasimirUrbanski Eh, same as I can't pretend i'm totally original. Thinking Mongol for raiders, like you though i'm not trying to cram actual Mongols in as some greenskins, I just think having a roaming band of enemies foreshadowed by falcons on the horizon ride up is cool.

So the guy who was crying about anime girls as "sexualization of minors" had his kid hopped up on cocaine, amazing

"omg japan is never beating the allegations" How many times does the sign need to be tapped

Squatters should be as hated as landlords

THAT'S IT? This is what 20 years worth of spent nuclear fuel looks like safely stored at the former Maine Yankee nuclear plant. The energy produced from this fuel helped avoid 70 million metric tons of CO2 emissions.
