It's one of those paper-vs-reality things. Given perfect input, machine learning SHOULD, on paper, give perfect output. But it takes a LOT of data to train, and the only way to get that much data is to pull from The Whole Dirty Data Set, so we wind up with just a mirror of current day... at best.

They don't even know the laws they are citing. The federal and state laws only apply to government buildings. For private businesses and individuals, the decision to fly or not is generally considered free speech.

I used this post to find their account, but they aren't answering. Gaylaxicon is two weeks past the deadline for notifying vendors and isn't responding to any questions. Serious question: is this con still actually happening?

At this point, I have to assume that gaylaxicon isn't happening. The form to register is still up, nobody is responding to any questions, etc.

We're now approaching the deadline to have paid, and I still don't know if acceptances have gone out. In the website you can still even apply, even past the supposed deadline. Is bugging people on social media really the only way to get any communication?

Vendor decisions were due today, but I can't find mine. I thought we would get an answer either way, but now I'm wondering. Are they still in the process? Should I read into the silence?

And to your original point, nothing about that is reliant on it being Daggerheart. You could lift the design of that monster into D&D, or Pathfinder, or Blades, or anything.

My favorite part of the Daggerheart beta one shot (I think it's still in there) is that there was an enemy that basically shot you into a painful memory from the past. GREAT way to force at least some character development in a one-shot where that's often lacking.

Beyond JUST Clinton, I am amazed at how often those on the right are shocked when I'm willing to criticize establishment Dems. They think because I vote Dem consistently, I must bow down to the party. They are projecting, I'd wager.

In reality, we could do BOTH. I don't think anyone would mind the performative stuff if they were ALSO doing things of substance.

I thought with the way she was acting, it'd be a minor right-wing celebrity. She proudly points to her Amazon listing. The most ratings any of her books has is ... 3. Doesn't look like any actual reviews, just a VERY few 5 star ratings.

Without seeing them myself, I can't make a super educated statement. But from what you've said, I would disagree with criticizing people for how they dress, regardless. I think your first mistake was being on Twitter.

I'm not sure what your point is here. The point is that we should be encouraging young people to find themselves at this age. Whether they wind up being trans or a drag queen or cishet. At the end of the day I don't really care WHY they are experimenting, but that they are allowed to do so in peace.

The vast VAST majority of underage trans people do NOT go through any sort of life-changing surgery until they are older (if ever). At that age, it's mostly about being allowed to change their name, wear clothing that confirms to their gender, etc. For exactly the reasons you stated.

What amazing proof that at least one person behind the scenes has a good finger on the pulse of the community. (And probably multiple people.)

At a glance, both classes seem to have an obvious "favored" subclass. That said, both classes (with my favored subclass) seem rad and I'd play either one.

I was worried that we'd get ancestry pages that are a low more boring/watered down like certain other RPGs. I am VERY happy with how many pages they take and what they left in. (CONCEPT ART still in the final book? SWOON!)

That's fair. I hadn't realized I used those literal three words! I think I will leave the post to own my faux pas with wording. But definitely unintentional implications. Muscular women are beautiful.

I was trying to agree with you and say that it's perfectly valid to have a preference either way, and that men who like muscular women are equally valid. Sorry if it read differently than that. Not sure if I'm going to delete, since it apparently doesn't read the way I meant it.
