I haven't seen that, it's just the typical "We're so back"/"It's so over" cycle that is always on social media. And like Ross says, a lot of people feel in control if their cynicism is borne out. I have a friend who thinks midterms aren't going to happen and uses the word "hopeslop."

I mean it sounds authoritative, commanding. But yeah, I can see that. Guess we're going to see how Grand Regent Day works out.

TBH I was kinda hoping for Bryan Cranston as Thragg.
roninmacbeth.bsky.social
Apparently so. He's getting typecast.
roninmacbeth.bsky.social
Huh. So Lee Pace is going to be Thragg. I guess I can see it.

Is this about the atomic bomb debate person?

My friend decided on a lark to play the Warhammer mod for CK2 but she doesn't know the lore. So I am about to explain High Elf lore because she doesn't know what Ulthuan is. We, uh, might be here a while.

The couple times I did multiclass was to specifically enhance the fantasy of being a crossbowman sniper, so I was a Fighter with a couple Rogue levels. But most of the time I want to be a religious knight, so I'm a paladin, or a soldier, so a fighter, or a scholar, and so a wizard. That's it.

Yeah, exactly. The US Congress would not be the first institution to trade real political power for the ability to be some of the richest people in the country. Even if they are objectively poorer they get to lord over people who have it worse.

In complete fairness, I think they're referring to D-Day when they say that. Which is equally stupid, but still.

Mid-ranking general, war veteran, some credibility with left-liberal types for not being an out-and-out monarchist, but from an ethnic minority background. IDK. In the civilian world that's probably Rubio, but I can't think of a general who fits that description.

It's all stupid Bonapartism.

in vought's view, the president is a living embodiment of the "will of the people" and congress has no legitimate power to limit him

A lack of real humility is poison when reading Tolkien, I think.

Sometimes I think the Habsburgs put something in the Danube and that's why Central Europe is Like That.

TBH I have never liked multiclassing. I've used it a couple times, but for the most part I prefer monoclassing. Feels unnatural, hard to explain.

The scholarly urge to hoard books like a dragon collecting gold trinkets.

On the one hand that's stupid, but on the other that makes sense given how un-fun Level 1 is in 5e and its derivations. Which just goes to show how 5e does not work all that well.

I disagree with your take about Superman, but I agree that it aside Thunderbolts was the best superhero movie of the year. Definitely a very pleasant surprise from Marvel.

Even though I got a lot of levels, I am not sure that turning Skyrim into Blacksmithing Simulator 2012 made the game more fun in my most recent run.
roninmacbeth.bsky.social
Yeah but why Nightcore specifically?
roninmacbeth.bsky.social
Wait, why is Nightcore key to any of this?
roninmacbeth.bsky.social
Ah, it was like that with my ex too. Glad it didn't blow up.
