In my state, with my employer, yes absolutely NSFW.

I don't agree, just saying what the GOP leaning corpos are making rules of.

As an American, fuck yes, absolutely, 100%.

As a Texan, fuck yes, absolutely, 1000%.

The wife and I are already considering leaving the state. Prices for everything are rising to ridiculous levels.

An apartment I could have afforded on my own a decade ago would require three incomes, and the neighborhoods are no less violent and crime ridden. Food deserts, lack of health care options, lack of gainful employment in that geographic area, all deterrents to paying more than I do now for a mortgage.

If I thought I had the skills and wherewithal to strike out and homestead I would. Alas, I do not.

I long to leave "the grid," but require medication to function as a normal human being. As such, I am beholden to the system. I must cooperate against my better interest to attain medication to live. I am, for lack of a better term, a slave to it.

Before anyone comes in calling a race card play, or any other shit, I am a cis het white male. In theory, I am the problem, and yet I suffer the same.

I decided at the age of seven that life, as we know it, was not worth living. 30 some odd years later, that has not changed.

That would be the Variant option for human in 5E, , I believe, which means its up to DM discretion.

So, it inherently isn't a super safe option if you're relying on that feat for some reason if you're a nerd who just workshops builds at various levels for fun.

I assume the office attracts plenty of dicks.

Generally, people who seek power should NOT have it.

I like that, I really do.

Batman is a genius, in several realms, but as a tactician? MAN.... With time to prepare, including ramming through scientific processes with just fucking CASH, he can probably could take on anyone.

Surprise The Bat? Man, he's fucking solid.... Melee combatant, strategist, understanding of a WIDE field of practices, he is fucking GOOD.

That being said, he is a MAN. Just a human being. GREAT training, GREAT tech, GREAT strategy... but still, something alien to his understanding (not necessarily extra terrestrial in origin) and he gets fucked.

That being said, Batman exemplifies the powers of the human MIND. If we can assess it, HUMANITY can provide a short term solution. Long term, we can fuck ourselves. Short term though? We can kill God, gods, etc.

Batman represents humanity, as a mental construct, at its peak. We can take in, digest, and provide useful solutions to solve a problem. Again, short term. We rarely plan past a generation or two.

I'm currently off my bipolar meds, against my will. Insurance change required a doctor change, and finding anyone who was available within a months time was not possible.

I need shit to get back to "normal" in my brain. I'm not doing well. I wasn't before, but yeah...

Only a couple more days until my appointment. I had one last week, and they sent me to the wrong place, coupled with a whole slew of other issues, and I said fuck em. Thankfully found someone the second time around pretty quickly.

Yeah, Dave Stage made that band what it was.

I didn't get the chance to meet him, but when I was active in the metal community I heard nothing but good things. I guess I should say Drowning Pool was a local band before they blew up.

I knew a Bubba. Legal first name.

He had a rat tail, of course.

Went to play at his house one day (fourth grade), and it was a typical suburban house. I rode past it on my bike to get to school.

Not a hint of white-trash about the situation.

It still perplexes me.

Kali is still around, I last did an install ~6 months ago, I think?

That got put on the back burner though, not because of the flipper, just life.

I have one.

Its fun.

But on the subject of rolling codes, I was able to get through a security gate that relies on, essentially, a garage door opener.

The exploit relied on the ridiculously low amount of rolling codes it cycled through.

Capture one, and try it a few times to get through.

Cars are more robust. Despite tinkering with it for about 8 hours, I wasn't successful with defeating it. That being said, I picked up the device, in part, to start messing around with various signals as an educational tool.

"...but if used orally it has been shown to have approximately 10 times the potency of morphine"

Per wikipedia, so grain of salt and all that. Still...

Vast difference in potency between fent and morphine.

Anecdotally, I had a blockage I thankfully passed without medical intervention... but it was a long terrible night.

There was a lot of gas built up behind the blockage, and it hurt. Like, a broken bone would have preferable, and yes I have had broken bones.

Over the course of hours, I could FEEL the blockage slowly moving its way out, accompanied with great pain every time.

When I finally passed it, it was similar to a musket round being fired, with a long loose butthole fart for at least a solid minute.

The relief was immense. Second most relief I've ever felt.

First was an ear infection behind a total blockage of ear wax. The pressure was insane. Second we just went over. For perspective, the third was receiving IV morphine in the hospital slightly before emergency surgery.

I have no idea what that means.

The article presumes it's an issue with nudity or sex.

I don't see anything from the developer stating that.

My first thought is the first witcher game was clunky as fuck.

They put out a third person action slasher with PG elements.

They built it on the Neverwinter removedhts engine.

It wasn't made to work like that, at all. So yeah, it's clunky and outdated.

Time enjoyed is not wasted.

Of course, Tik Tok isn't my jam, so it would be a waste of time for me.

That makes me wonder.

I don't, or rather, can't picture things in my mind.

I always thought that phrase was just a phrase, it had some archaic reference but the phrase remained or some shit.

Nope. Turns out I just lack that ability.

That being said, for those of us who can't or just don't picture things, would our pupils adjust the same way?

If you find novel use of language fun, I'd recommend the Cocteau Twins.

It's English, but the words aren't used for their meaning. More for tonality and cadence.

It's not something I'd put on normally, and I don't really listen to them much, but I found it interesting enough.

I personally dislike the freewheel scroll overall.

Then again, the only time I'm really thinking about what features a mouse has, it's for gaming so I like a little more precision and tactile feedback.

For everything else I do, a mouse is a mouse.

Unless it's one of those BS apple ones with no right click. Those make me unreasonably upset.

I wish I had that option in a previous campaign.

We even had a rule set, if your character dies, you can reroll a new character. Same level. Gearing would be similar (in power, not the same gear).

I hated my character. Mechanically I just did NOT enjoy playing them.

Being a mentally ill character (GOO warlock, Cthulhuesque patron of madness, part of the pact) I turned to depression, fool hardy risks, etc. The DM just would NOT let that character die.

I just wanted to play a character that better fit the party and campaign. Having a "Face" character in a campaign with a stupid barbarian (both player and int score) that solved every problem with a great axe, and if there wasn't a problem created one, was useless.

Got stopped by guards at the gate of a new town? Instead of just talking for 30 seconds, the party wound up jailed and forced into trial by combat. It didn't end well. Then I (the host for every session, but not DM) changed jobs and schedules and no one else would host so it died.

I've often wondered how the world would cope without 24 hour IT support.

All I know is I would love to see the chaos unfold, sadly, I think more than a few lives would end as a result so I can't condone that for all fields.
