That growth doesn’t happen when people legitimize these bad faith pressure campaigns. The cool stuff in the 2024 editions is all the result of open-minded exploration. Conservatives should have the courage of their close-minded convictions and suffer through the 2014 monk.

Intolerance means shutting yourself off from good things. When I was an evangelical kid I burned my Pokémon cards, didn’t listen to secular music, and didn’t read fantasy books. Eventually a lot of people, especially young people, look over the fence and realize their side is pretty joyless.

It’s just so frustrating to see the full buy-in to the screeching right’s optional outrage, as if they’re being forced to do literally anything they don’t want to do. They have to read a word in a context they’re not used to, and that warrants this writer’s time, I guess?

It also doesn’t mention that the popularizer of this use of the word race has endless examples in his writing of this kind of language:
“Are they Men he has ruined, or has he blended the races of Orcs and Men? That would be a black evil!”
I’m not saying ban Tolkien, it’s just context worth having.

OK’d a deploy to bypass QA because it was small, had a lot of review, and QA was backed up.
Missed a comma from a cut and paste oversight. 5-figure lost revenue. Most expensive single character I’ve encountered.

Genuine question Senator: if we don’t do something extreme, like minting the coin, when and how does this end? You don’t keep sending people in to where the hostage-taker is waiting.
