I also had the dad quit his job because he was a low-level comedian who probably wasn't very good anyway, and the mom is rising fast up the business chain and will hopefully be a regional manager soon and maybe they can eventually move somewhere bigger

Still obsess sometimes over the way he pops randomly into Frodo's fever dream like a cheap Chinese karaoke video

Quick little 7 min video that describes their lore (actually 6 cuz the first minute is an ad). I tend to just ignore the evil stuff

Classically, they're evil. But I always just run them in my campaign as little swamp/forest fellas who only mess with folks who hurt their ecosystem

This is a Grung. It's been a d&d monster for a while. Also a playable race now actually, which is fun

Look I consider you a friend but I gotta defend my fellow Fahrenheiters
Talking this way about your own roots? For shame.

I sent her an email explaining her mistake. I've been very polite so far but if she keeps pressing me about it I'm gonna get a little spicy, I have too much shit to worry about right now without also playing nice with a landlord who can't read

Get a friend to elbow drop the back of your neck
(Seriously though, pains like that sometimes can only be helped by a second pair of hands)

I'm glad at least some folks are able to enjoy it, lol
It undid too much that I liked about the first two campaigns tbh

It's a pretty smart choice. A life-sized cutout of Danny Devito is $30, so buying 42 of them and a snickers bar would still leave you with more than half the money

In that case do rest up as much as you need. You're miles ahead of where I was when I made that mistake

Good luck on your interviews! And I don't want to tell you what to do, but maybe still do just one application per day until you know you have a job secured...
I know from experience that not getting the job you interviewed for and then being behind because you stopped applying is the worst.

This ultra-macho insistence that you can do no wrong? This absolute refusal to consider that you may have made a mistake, and maybe you should consider another point of view?
That's the other-side behavior I'm talking about. That's what makes me doubt that you're really working to help us.

It's this "No, actually, nuh-uh, I've never done anything wrong and it's just a YOU problem" that's really casting doubt on your intentions. It would be so easy to stop and consider, for even a second, that you might be the one who made a mistake here.

Again, the big problem that I have with you is the "not on me man". Multiple people have expressed that your words and behaviors are making them intensely uncomfortable. A decent person would think "hey... one person might just be sensitive, but all of these people? I might actually be in the wrong"
comment in response to
post
The fact that you won't even acknowledge that is indicative of your unwillingness to actually work with us, and is what's making people doubt your intentions. You don't need to have intentionally hurt somebody to say "Hey, it looks like what I said was hurtful and I didn't mean that. I'm sorry".
comment in response to

Even if that's what you meant, the very minimum of productive discourse would be to admit that you did not express things in a good way, instead of insisting that everybody else is the problem.
Consequences supercede intent. Even if you didn't mean it, you've made people uncomfortable.
comment in response to

You're not getting it.
The problem isn't that you're willing to fight back against somebody who approaches you with violent intent.
The problem is that nobody expressed violent intent, but that's how you took it and responded, and only doubled down since instead of admitting you were mistaken.

The first time you say "I'm sorry" to anybody in this thread, and it's to me, the person who needs it the least. The folks in these threads have tried repeatedly to express to you why your behavior is making them upset. "Engaged and listening" doesn't look like the lashing out you've been doing.
comment in response to

You have an amazingly fragile definition of "violent aggression". They said "fuck you". It's a widely known expression of displeasure, towards a person or a behavior. How do you hear a more extreme version of "forget you" or "never mind you" and take it to mean "I wanna punch you in the face"?
comment in response to

We've been explaining to you why your behavior leaves a lot to be desired. You might have noticed if you'd bothered to actually consider the points of view of the people arguing with you, rather than just blustering and lashing out. By the way, that's a big part of the "tolerant" you claim to be.

Refusing to even consider that maybe your behavior isn't so good, and insisting that the problem is with everybody else.
Speaking over marginalized people, disregarding their points of view when they try to express why you made them uncomfortable.
Refusing to listen. Refusing to learn.

Inviting somebody to engage in violence, then acting like they challenged you when you were the one who brought it up.
Misgendering people repeatedly after they express discomfort, then instead of fixing it make the excuse of "Oh, I call everybody dude so it's fine".

Half of jtmacri's problem is that admission of a mistake and correction of bad behavior doesn't even seem to cross his mind. If you're unwilling to even consider that maybe you came at this the wrong way and fix your behavior, how are you supposed to hold a productive conversation with anyone?
comment in response to

Rephrase all you want, but maybe that should also come with an apology for what you said in the first place? Because even if you meant something different from what you said, it doesn't change the fact that your original message was "come catch these medical bills!"

This. You claim to be on our side, why are you being so angry and aggressive? You came into these threads slinging insults and threatening violence right out the gate.
