I'm getting really pissed off with all the Americanisms that are creeping their way into British society. It's a dog LEAD, no you can't pet my dog, you can PAT it, and no, you can't get a coffee, not unless you're going to go around the counter and make it yourself.

Playing History of the World for the first time today. My first impression is that it reminds me of Risk.

@_FrostGiantJarl @Dungeoneerhere I had no idea. But there is a reason - I don't know any of their names or achievements. Obviously GG and originals, but nothing since. Last time I engaged with an original I got pasted.

@msiggins @Dungeoneerhere Yes, he’s referring to many of the people that were original designers, artists, creators, authors, etc. for D&D dating back to the 70s, 80s and 90s. Many of which are also here on X and quite a few attend the Cons and some run their games there which is a very cool thing!!

It’s baffling how easy it is to play with the most important living people in TTRPG history. The small cons cost 50 bucks for a weekend and you can play with many bros just by asking around and passing vibe check. I guess it’s always been this way. Hope it always is this way

Absolutely not even close. Most overrated band of my time. I don’t get it. I’ll just never understand how this band achieved the level of popularity that they have. It’s bubble gum rock, cheap pop, or cliché sonic filler. No matter what label you put in this garbage, it’s just ass. I don’t get it.

@WotCoasts Luke has also said if he redoes his father's Castle Greyhawk he's taking out all the "unfun" things like teleporter traps and spiked pits and so on because "modern gamers don't like that sort of thing", well, I say: fuck that. I'll stick with my unfun 1e AD&D thanks.

@laxerra Well from my perspective, as someone who has never conformed, first the invites stop (or never start), then the contact, then the entire friendship. I am down to a handful. You don't have to do anything and I don't give life advice!

@softcorgamegirl We played for a couple of years, pretty much all the time. There were segments where there was no adventuring, just living and growing. Quite surprising at the time. Later that year we effectively came up with The Sims but, of course, did nothing with it.

@msiggins We played this game “The quiet year” to build our most recent world and it makes it feel so much more real

I just want a game that does everything. I want a good adventure story where I get to be a hero but I also want to build and take care of little towns but I also want there to be romance options that actually mean something not just I am the hero so therefore everyone loves me

My sister gave birth to a red-haired daughter. But she and her husband are both dark-haired. No one in our family has red hair. My sister insists that her husband's great-grandfather was red-haired, and that's how it was passed down. Her husband didn't believe her, especially since she has this one red-haired colleague at work. Anyway, he insisted on a DNA test, which they did after huge fights and screaming matches. My sister threw the paper in his face. It showed 99.9% he's the father. But he still doesn't believe it, says the test could have been faked or someone paid off the lab. He wants to do another one at a different lab, but my sister is afraid this will definitely lead them to divorce He's not even talking to my sister right now. But he says it's better to find out the truth and live with a clear conscience. He doesn't want to raise someone else's child. I believe my sister 100%, but I have to admit the situation is pretty bizarre. Does anyone know anything about genetics?

Huge fan of early Simple Minds. This album is a right up there. They kind of lost me after this though. #simpleminds

@ManOfKent15 What makes you say they’re courting the Muslim vote? I see no evidence for this.
