Gumbo - I meanā€¦itā€™s gumbo. Chili, chicken tikka, steak and veggies, fried chicken with Mac and cheese and greens. - these are all very comforting foods for us.

Upper middle class and below = barely scraping by or poor. The dollar is going to spend faster than weā€™ll be able to keep upā€¦alas. Itā€™s going to be a long four years+. A democrat will have to clean it up and America will forget again, because it has the attention span of a goldfish with ADHD

That would be awesome, truly. We donā€™t have the infrastructure in place to process the hemp into the types of materials needed, and it would be primarily used for siding (composite board) and or insulation in a home. Main supports would still need to be wood. Alas.

They can get all they want on the dark web, and from meta, and from hacking banks, hospitals, govā€™t agencies, etc. itā€™s about controlā€¦if the oligarchs donā€™t have it, they donā€™t like it. They must control the narrative.

I love that. Daggerheart does that, right? Sounds so cool. I think Advantage/Disadvantage is inspired and very cool. I also played a system where hit points are directly tied to physical and mental stats. So as you take damage, you lose your bonuses organically. Crunchy but cool.

Iā€™d rather shave my head with a cheese grater whilst chewing aluminum foil, than watch Trump take the oath. What dark times indeed.

This has been true for many years. Possibly always. The rich can afford and almost always buy all the ā€œjusticeā€ they canā€¦and as weā€™ve recently seen, justices.

Solid.

Iā€™m with you, I really like the skill/feature development model of Shadowrun, Traveller, The Laundry, etc. it feels more organic to me. I never really got into card games, theyā€™re obviously fun but the medium doesnā€™t sing to me. Oh, I checked out your site, Iā€™mma give some of those a peep for sure!

I hear you. 3/3.5e was pretty dope, I enjoyed it a lot. Honestly, my biggest problem with D&D is not with the game but with the company. Seems like theyā€™re just being a-holes. Which seems really counter productive.
comment in response to post
But I like the reframing of character maintenance focus onto role play away from optimization. But thatā€™s just me. Itā€™s the same reason Iā€™m less inclined to play a lot of PF 2e.
comment in response to post
It must be a ā€˜different strokesā€™ situation because I found tracking feat progression paths for prestige classes exhausting. (Cool to be sure, but exhausting) I like the subclass structure for specialization for its simplicity. Obviously, since 5e is less crunchy, the customization takes a hit 1/
comment in response to post
Without jumping games. Throw a whole new ruleset into the mix and thereā€™s far less interest. With or without having to read. Iā€™ve played/GMā€™d many systems and I play D&D as it is a known environment. Of all the iterations Iā€™ve played, 5e is hands down the easiest to grasp.
comment in response to post
D&D is a known and pretty much mainstream option at this point. As a DM, I volunteer to teach the game during play, and itā€™s no different from any other TTRPG Iā€™m running. I think the biggest factor barring game jumping is time. People are busy, shit, itā€™s hard enough to keep a campaign going /1

Itā€™d be nice if it was a full on Convention cruise, but still pretty dope.

I donā€™t really understand why she ran for a senate seat when Schiff was already there. Sheā€™d still be in congress if she hadnā€™t made that choice.
