#D&D Any version. I hate standard D&D reincarnate so much.

Settle for a d100 body from among the 100 nearest young adults humanoids, with a new supplemental set of memories that you RP through, and have to find your way back to your friends?

If asked, how would you rewrite it?

EBV causes nasopharyngeal carcinoma, Burkitt’s & Hodgkin’s lymphoma, ME/CFS, ~15% of stomach cancers, and when reactivated by Covid, certain long-covid symptom clusters. Shingles can cause dementia!

But mRNA vaccines are “bad,” i.e., kill RFK’s wellness industry grift, so they had to go.

Fuck the #Olympics, and fuck the #IOC. Long history if misogynist and racist inconsistencies. The idea of something being "apolitical" is laughable kindergarten scolding. As for the idea "Meaningless competition makes us friendly," which... I mean, have you met humans and their fucking stupid

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

"What happens when you try?"

Incidentally the plurality of answers to this are, "I don't know," for various equally perplexing reasons.
"Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work."

“That’s not what HIPAA means.”
"Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work."

"While I know you need it for a class, there is a 15-minute waiting period before you can check out that item again."

Your point reminds me of a very astute Twitter thread about shame, by David Rees (of Get Your War On fame), from early in Trump's first term. It's hard to find now, so I'm going to post the whole thing here.

Top "martial bros walk down hall" moments.

Don Pedro (Denzel Washington) with Don John and Claudio, Much Ado About Nothing

Toranaga-sama (Hiroyuki Sanada) and Hiromatsu-sama, Shogun.

There is probably a matrix scene too. Which gives Ted a lot of walk for one career

What you got?

Rewatching Much Ado about Nothing.

I am so into Emma Thompson. Do not remember the initial bath scene. Suspect I'm right to think Blessed has scant lines.

This is also the /only/ production I've ever seen of MAAN.

OK. Here's the brand I want to workshop.
CRUSH.
1. It's a social exercise program.
2. Like, flash mob kind of.
3. Strength training at all levels of ability.
4. High, if not total musclehead, enthusiasm. Like a kind of over-the-top masculinity without all the shitty parts, but also

Somebody should, (if somebody is not already) be developing a game in a fantasy setting that is low magic, except that pacts and oaths, specifically, are supernaturally enforcable, and in which what pass for deities and elementals, exist.

Kids who freeform RP when they get together. Have limited attention spans and, even if they have an appetite for sitting at table and rolling dice and following rules sometimes, they want a different experience, at least sometimes.

What is the simplest way to...

The Republican admin is spending $55b of our tax dollars to build 10,000-person concentration camps with incinerators.

My kingdom for any candidates who promise to expel the GOP from Congress, HUAC the party and their collaborators, and pass the Republican Control Act of 2026 over Trump’s veto.
