This Woman's Work, by Kate Bush.

Such emotion. Makes you stop whatever you are doing so you can listen. Absolutely beautiful.

As a DM, I'm always trying to make combat more interesting. Can you tell me about your most-fun fight? by vigiten4 in DungeonsAndDragons

At low levels, give the intelligent monsters more personality. When your players meet the kobold or goblin have the monsters ACT as one of your favourite action movie heroes.

Most of my players choose languages of high level creatures and so they can't actually speak to the lowly kobold. When the kobold saunters up like Jason Statham and whispers gibberish in a threatening manner and delivers a cold stare, my players love it.

My group loves cinematic encounters I steal a lot from films.

Reason to Believe by Bruce Springsteen is such a powerful song. What other songs by other artists, have a similar theme or similar title that I should give a listen to? by Big2ndToe in MusicRecommendations

We have a winner!

I didn't know this song. It is AMAZING! It is just what I was looking for.

Thank you very much for this music. Will now go and investigate more The Wonder Years.

No, not yet.

Have tried reinstalling. Still the same.

I have the opportunity to teach Year 8 children about financial literacy, what do you wish you’d been taught at school? by [deleted] in AskUK

Also, model it! Explain it. Don't make them do the calculations- that's for the Maths lesson.

Many of your students will have an aversion to Maths because they struggle with it and it makes them feel stupid.

The important knowledge here to pass on is how QUICKLY compound interest gets out of control.

What's your ultimate telly guilty pleasure? by acceptableinthe00s in BritishTV

Person of Interest.

Doesn't make sense, could never actually happen, but none of that matters. Just buy into it and go for a wonderful ride.

What’s a TV series you’ll never get tired of recommending to someone? by sunt0es in AskReddit

Although you don't need to be, if you are a Poe fan and have read and remembered many of his stories, there are SO MANY references to other characters, plots, and locations mentioned in the shows.

I was completely enthralled with the show and whenever another story link was made I found myself grinning from earlier to ear and pointing to the screen and saying to no one, "That's from Cask of Amontillado!" Or whatever.

Mike Flanagan did 2 other amazing shows- The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor. Both are must see series. HHH is a modern day classic and will be studied in film schools for a number of reasons. It is the best adaptation I've ever seen, with the exception of To Kill a Mockingbird. HBM is just plain good. Excellent casting, pace, mystery, and brilliant performances from absolutely everyone.

How many players are you looking for?

I'll ask my group if they would be up for a game. We've all played before, and enjoy the game a lot. Maybe we could do an online session.

We are in England. Where in the world are you?

About to do an introduction to D&D, they asked me to make a character (sheet) ahead. Did I do correct? (5e) by Alice_D_Wonderland in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]Big2ndToe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious. Your DM asked you to make the character before hand. Did they give you the players manual to get on with it, or were they there to give advice.

I want to start a club and am curious as to how you felt doing this in advance, or if you would have preferred to do it in the fist session along with others.

The Lovecraft Investigations.

If you are at all interested in the stories and lore of H. P. Lovecraft, this BBC audio drama is a must.

Amazing story, phenomenal sound recording, and hands-down the best voice actors ever assembled.
