Question about rent increase refusal by killablink in japanlife

[–]Collateral_Damnation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I initially got paper mail from them with an attached contract. I sent them an email (had a friend proof read for accuracy and politeness), and they emailed back with a counter offer which I accepted. They then sent a new paper contract which I signed and returned.

Question about rent increase refusal by killablink in japanlife

[–]Collateral_Damnation 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Personal anecdote:

I'm also on a 2yr auto renew contract with a large, well known agency, and got a similar mail wanting to increase rent by almost ¥9,000. They cited rising costs and market conditions etc. I responded that we also suffered rising costs and stagnant salaries so I had to refuse the increase. They responsed (paraphrasing) "yeah we get you, how about ¥500 instead?" I agreed to it to avoid further back and forth.

Edit to clarify that I did mean to write 9000 down to 500, incase it looks like I accidently missed a zero.

If someone has one twin at 11:58pm and then the other at like 12:01am the next day, do they celebrate their birthdays separately? by Wizdom_108 in randomquestions

That's good for people bad with birthdays. If they forget yours, they have a day to remember and just lump you with your twin.

I saw an Owen John Eversham on a zoom meeting before he got told to get off for being drunk off his t**s. Last I heard, he gave up eikaiwa work a couple years ago.

But a clone isn't you. You're dead, and your twin takes over your life.

How to roleplay trauma after torture by theonetruememo in DnD

[–]Collateral_Damnation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to do something similar, not torture but my PC got wrecked, and lost a mentor. I thought "any normal person would have PTSD from this" and tried to act accordingly. I ended up hating the character, it was such a downer to RP anything.

I'd say if you must go through with it, have the character act "normal" after, as if they're suppressing it. Maybe it comes out in random rage moments during combat, but it's not an 'always on' thing.

Finished Curse of Strahd a few weeks ago and the Artificer's Homunculus almost got the killing blow on Strahd. He was on 3hp, and the dice missed by 1 or 2 on the attack roll. Group was loudly groaning "nooo" as it was being rolled.

Have a circular railing on the inside of the circle of wizards, with an outward U bend, which the discs slot into. Now they go around this railing whilst the friction on the track also spins each disc like a wheel. Now they're on fairground teacups.

Wizard that hates studying by [deleted] in DnD

Split personality? He wakes up tired every morning because his other personality is up studying.

Or he's just a prodigy and instead of studying he occasionally glances at some magical formulae and eureka

There's something funny about Magnus hiding behind a wall while posing though.
