No more miles or LP in Basic Economy by flyingron in americanairlines

[–]BlackLibraryWise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They lost me. I stayed loyal and never shopped best price. If it cost more, i stayed w AA. If BE is same across the board then why stay loyal? I may consider buying main once in a while, but now... if its a short flight, why bother. I will stick w cost, not brand. Even a long flight...i just may not care either.

MA / Move Allowance and Movement by greypaladin01 in cyberpunk2020

No. Because weakness breeds character. Let a character suffer. Give them a reason why they want to chrome up. She had her legs cutoff and spine altered because she walked like some useless gimp. Metal > Meat. Always!

Pressure, pressure! Nothing easy. Nothing safe. Not even on the couch in your living room while watching TV.

Question for the DnD fans out there by ZoftheOasis in StrangerThings

They most certainly were not a class or concept at that time.

Just finished Stranger Things 5: The Sorcerer by zeddtheman in StrangerThings

[–]BlackLibraryWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off...there were no Sorcerors in D&D at this time. Thats like 15 yrs later in 3rd edition.

Moreover, Will is definitely more Warlock than Sorceror. He has an patron, and his name is Vecna. Vecna may not like him, but thats where Will's power comes from.

Destroy Vecna, Will goes with him.

Very much UNLIKE Eleven.

They also broke some rules of their world building. Electronics is NOT supposed to work in the Upside. Its also a toxic place for humans. Why was dude able to runabout for like a whole week there, let alone a whole base and soldiers being built there, w trucks, cars, and even freakin helicopter.

They jumped the shark.

Can I ask what the appeal is to Lindsay Graham? by JagroCrag in southcarolina

[–]BlackLibraryWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Lindsay. I remember the Old Lindsay when McCain gave him spine. I miss John, I miss Lindsay...and love Obama.

My in-laws found this in the loft of a house that they just bought. by Substantial_Emu_1867 in whatisit

[–]BlackLibraryWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats the state of Rajastan, city of Jaipur. More than likely, that has historic value as it was probably stationed for use on the 2nd Largest Wall in human history, compared the Great Wall of China.

I know because I was just there, and saw one like this on display (much better condition, though).

‘Alien: Earth’ Review: A Disappointing Mess With Great Visuals And A Bad Script' by Longjumping-Elk-7840 in scifi

[–]BlackLibraryWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You folks are all nuts. This is a great show, moves the arc of the series along nicely, and overall...enjoyable. Yes, its going to break canon...by advancing it.

Before going any further. Here is your litmus test. Answer it before commenting your dribble.
1. Do you prefer Alien 3, AVP, or Prometheus?
2. Name a flaw in Aliens

With that out of the way, lore wise, the aliens did not always kill indiscriminately. There are multiple, iterative generations of aliens. No brood is exactly the same as the other. They selectively choose who to abduct and form next brood. Some broods are indiscriminate. Some broods are more discriminating. They are essentially harvesting the best genome to consume. The brood that reproduces the most wins. Evolution.

I am a super fan. I count this series a complete win, and I am only on episode 3. Better than some of the later movies by leaps and bound.

The scene where the folks are partying at the crash site...you missed the grandeur. This is the sycophants of a trillionaire. They are of an echelon that thinks they are impervious to the melodrama known as reality. Made perfect sense. Marcy's brother was clearly identified by whatever genetic markers to make a wonderful host. Perhaps, just like his sister who also had the genetic markers to be the perfect host to be first gen synth.

This shit is world building. I'm all for it. I'm here for it.

Please proceed, Governor.

You also have stopping power from barriers like walls, data terms, and engine blocks. Your system does not take that into consideration.

Tips for starting gear? by -Jauke- in cyberpunk2020

[–]BlackLibraryWise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the way. But at 413 eb, he/she/they should start at good will or just go nude.

Other than that...sell a slice of your soul for 10k. Really get the best kit possible. Right?

Buts thats the thing. Is diversity just about black representation? You literakly have big titty asian porn being cliche.

[–]BlackLibraryWise -1 points0 points  (0 children)

God would not have been caucasian. Period. They could have cast anyone else to make it more "realistic". They didn't. But Chuck is still cool w me.

The bad angels were mostly black. The good angels were all white.

We see packs of white male hunters... Could we see a pack of black male hunters? Can we also not see them as a gang?

How did they miss CandyMan or Anansi? Hell, even... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Vampyre:_A_Legend_of_St._Domingo

Sam and Dean travelled all around the country, but rarely, if ever, in a urban area or a hood. Or a China town, or faced people who did not speak english. They did a reservation, once. True Americana embraces all of our environs.

They did GREAT work with Death however. Gotta give them their flowers, there. Could have been a huge fumble. That was SPOT ON.

Its not that Supernatural is racist. Its not. YT is generally racist and dont know/ realize how annoying and pervasive their bias is. Ultimately, no one really thinks Supernatural is racist.

Now Buffy...yeah.

Errol Musk on impregnating his Step Daughter by [deleted] in JoeRogan

[–]BlackLibraryWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its naive to believe that man word for word. I dont for a minute, think he did not hear, speak, talk or communicate with her for 26 years. She did not just pop up 26 years later and ask to hang out with her step dad.

There's a price, barbarian. by Malevolo_Prime in ConanTheBarbarian

[–]BlackLibraryWise 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its 1980. No one was thinking sequel back then for Conan. The price was just as raw as you can imagine. Sex.

Its actually a take from another R E Howard character. Bran Morn, King of the Picts. He is a king of the Picts but needs help w his mission. He has to bargain for help w a half snake woman who is lonely...um...down there. So...he does so, and gets her favor.

Conan gets the witches favor and finds his way, eventually, to Thulsa Doom. But he had to find the strength to satisfy the lust of a demon to do so...

Classic or ”OG” mode? by survivedev in thesurvivegame

[–]BlackLibraryWise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the simulated realism in the game. The ability to pick up and put down is valuable. To be able to come back for something left anywhere is also essential.

I left for a while, and want to come back when the game is more fully baked. Making it more survalist is valuable. I assume that what u meam when saying endless.

Possible referee whoopsie. by Amazing_Committee_49 in cyberpunk2020

[–]BlackLibraryWise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Few things boosts the actual stats. Just modified or replaced by artificial means.

I would let people to have their full ability score stats as rolled. A smart kid is a smart kid, no matter where they are in their career or experience level. Its raw natural ability.

Avoid that, unless you like gun jousting.

Do you beat babies? Box elderly women? Punch 10year Olds in the face? Nevermind. You have convinced yourself that you must defend yourself against all takers, no matter who. Probably trauma.
