They will complain all day but will absolutely pass the bill on party line with cuts to medicaid and services their voters rely on.

Rural areas tend to vote republican.

So leopards eating faces and all that jazz.

so everybody literally HAS to use thopters.

Which is pretty realistic for the setting but doesn’t sound very fun for PVP.

In game punishments are the worst for these kinds of issues, just talk to each other.

The DM came up with the plot hook and the players agreed to play, so the players need to put some effort into finding a reason to go along with the plot hook.

Suggestions on making the hook more engaging is an option too!

It doesn’t help that everything seems to be a rehash or a sequel to something that was released in the past.

This literally describes everything in human history including entertainment, and the older I become the more apparent it is. Coming to accept that is comforting, and I can once again enjoy something just because it reminds me of something else.

Except why didn’t they learn from the earlier stuff! Arrrgggghhhhhh!

It exists because of British troops disarming the populations of their colonies centuries ago, and is implemented in its current state due to a massive number of laws and court cases since.

The US Constitution should have been rewritten from scratch multiple times by now so outdated bits like that went away.

That is police talk trying to avoid being declarative before they confirm the facts, it doesn’t imply they disagree.

Parker is with the organizers, and she confirmed that they were part of the safety team. Redd is with the police, and is relaying the word of the organizers but hedging the wording for PR purposes.

“Our safety team did as best as they could in a situation that is extremely sad and extremely scary,” said Parker.

It really couldn’t be more clear.

No, you are not following it right and clearly responded based on the one sentence headline and your assumptions. It was a dedicated safety person as part of a team, not some random person. They were there to defend against violence directed at the protesters.

Redd said the man believed to be part of the peacekeeping team, dressed in a neon green vest, fired three shots from a handgun at Gamboa, inflicting a relatively minor injury but fatally shooting Ah Loo. Redd did not share the man’s name.

When the two men in vests confronted Gamboa with their handguns drawn, witnesses said Gamboa raised his rifle into a firing position and ran toward the crowd, said Redd.

It absolutely sounds like they stopped a mass shooting event, sorry it wasn’t perfect.

WE KNOW

You can’t force anyone to learn anything. They have to be receptive.

Literally practicing self awareness.

Probably.

You meant ‘in the minority’ but it sounded like ‘of a minority’ because racist stereotypes include muscular minority women. ‘Muscular with a healthy fat layer’ fits some hispanic/latina stereotypes similar to the big booty stereotype for black women.

I wouldn’t take most ban reasons at face value. He could be a pedo, or could have pointed out a law for clarification and the worst possible motivation was assumed.

Especially when there isn’t a removed comment or anything for context.

Yeah, most people tend to approach things from a positive or negative default and time seems to reinforce that unless a very major life experience shakes that up.

Don’t invite clutter, as in stop buying so many things. If you can’t break that habit then it will just get back to where it was.

If you are keeping something, is the total possible savings by keeping it around worth the lost space that could be used for something else? If it was gone would it be easier to clean? Is wasting time managing it existing in your space worth it?

Keep some keepsakes around, just keep it manageable. One or two tubs is plenty if you only go through them once a decade or less. Yeah, you might save some money by keeping an old toy around for grandkids, but there will also be newer toys and odds are they won’t want old stuff enough to keep boxes of them around. Maybe keep a few of your favorites so you can share stories.

Unless you really enjoy changing decorations constantly only a couple backups of regular things are needed at most. You don’t need a dozen sets of bedding. You don’t need a full backup set of silverware.

I don’t need the inner workings of the last three generations of PC builds, but I keep telling myself that I will use them for playing around with Linux and they only take up a small tub so I am OK it since I got rid of three tubs of the kiddos childhood toys she never really played with. Kept a tub of the ones she liked in case she has kids and wants to pass them on. One tub of a thing is fine if there aren’t too many total tubs.

Note:tub is my unit of measurement since having these discussions with family are hard to have without something to represent volume.

Guess I’m not brushing my teeth anymore.

Stares uncomfortably at wooden cutting board.

Poor Phish, constantly slandered on the internet.
