There must be something else at play. It could be that, unlike other cephalopods that swim, like you would expect, the nautilus propells itself through the ocean by expelling high pressure jets of water

I don’t think regulators are a good example for something we have too many people doing, but otherwise, this is great

I reverse engineered this, by thinking about what I would do if I was in the Pokemon world, since whatever economic system Pokemon has means that 10 year olds can support themselves with hobby income while traveling the world, and basically every adult makes their living through their special interest. So now I’m working towards becoming a wetland ecologist, and it’s led to uncovering tons of nostalgic memories from field trips and stuff in elementary school

Technically it’s in the upper atmosphere 🤓

Moreover, legitimate fascists and reactionaries are not the same as “well-meaning but misinformed” people

Yeah, this is the big point. If they’re “…[invalidating] your humanity, and the humanity of people you love,” they are just abusing your patience, and don’t deserve it. Fuck those people.

Every game borrows from other games’ ideas and mechanics

It’s not only games, this is just straight-up how art works. Culture develops over time. Of course capitalism had to get a middleman in there lol

This sounds a lot like problems my fiance and I have had. She’s diagnosed, I’m still working on that. She also has OCD. She gets stressed very easily when preparing for a trip, and used to get worse and worse approaching her strict departure time, which has caused some conflict between us, as I am habitually late to things.

We’ve been able to work it out, by just having a conversation about how we get ready. Now I try harder to hit her target time, and she allows a little wiggle room. It’s taken a lot of stress off of us both, making the whole process easier. It’s still a chaotic mess, but at least we’re not fighting about it anymore lol

I prefer sweetening separately, because it allows you to control the sweetness more

Always sweeten to taste! Dry Curaçao is still pretty sweet, so go cautiously

What you really want though, is Dry Curaçao, which is not clear, but is significantly higher quality

Turns out you have to make a good game too. Who would have guessed?

We better not run out of whales then

A necromancer with an undead honored ancestor is such a cool idea. You could then save spells like Raise Dead for corpses you consider particularly deserving of the honor. Noble or formidable does usually, but sometimes beloved NPCs

My next character is going to be a Tiefling College of Whispers Bard, using the new 2024 Tiefling, since they can be Small. They’re an impish investigative reporter for a Westmarch setting I’m starting with some friends. Their goal is to make sure the governing body in the setting isn’t able to have any secrets from the people, through espionage and the newspaper they print, so they’re going to be stirring up a lot of trouble.

Someday I will get to play them. Setting up a Westmarch is a big undertaking lol

You could try it at 11:49:35 tonight, and report back

That platform could be used by anyone though, so long as they look suspicious enough.

I’ve wanted an Outside the Federation show for a while. I hope they bring back Cassidy Yates. More Maquis would also be sick

Could even be a copycat using the opportunity to get their manifesto in the news

Talk to your DM! Does the warlock have a copy of her pact that she (or anyone in the party) can read? This would be the perfect time to call on any Wizards or diviners you may have helped out in the past.

It may feel like you need to spring a Wish on your DM, so they can’t twist it against you, but actually, the spell, and any big moments like it, will be way more fun if you work together to figure it out. When your DM knows what you want to happen, they can find ways to work it in, and the story almost always ends up better for it. Collaborative storytelling like this is the whole reason we play TTRPGs and not only video games

Yes, that’s actually why lmao
