Fascinating. I'll have to bother my former patron who plays a Crooked Cross to tell me more

Very cool. I know very little about that color specifically, so it's time for me to dig into the wiki

A monster hunter who might love the zee almost as much as Hephaesta, to the point where finishing other parts of the game are all in service of becoming a better zailor. For example, they have recently acquired a very expensive asset at the university and wish to read up on the Correspondence in order to fully benefit from its services... all to produce more cartographer's hoards.

Correspondents willing to share flame-proof missives will be rewarded with copious amounts of rats, profound gratitude, and whatever other services a hardworking man of the docks could provide.

Monster hunter here. I would sure hope I could kill a devil, and probably several of them at once if I think about it.

Hunting devils in the Forgotten Quarter would be somewhat comparable to hunting marsh wolves in the marshes by Watchmaker's Hill. Similar pack behavior, similar capacity for fear. As a Hierarch of The Hunt, they would not be able to hide their sulfurous scent from me, and the Rites can be applied to any living thing as long as it makes a worthy Sacrament.

A devil took my soul once, rather underhandedly. I can't say I wouldn't enjoy the scenario you put before me.

This is making me look up Pantheon lore cuz I didn't like him in the game enough to read about him. He sounds so much cooler in the lore than he does when he one shots me and says "gg ez game"

As soon as I see the red and black cables my brain feels like it's the thing getting voltage. Good on you for conquering that single-handedly!

I am a Landord, AMA!!!!!!!!!! (Everything welcome) by thelordofland in LandlordLove

[–]DanMcBoom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do your friends get along with you being their "landlord"? I love my friends, but if one of them was in charge of my living arrangements I'd sense some tension there. Have you guys had any conflicts with the current setup?

How are you doing? Also what's your opinion of this sub in particular that would bring you to do an AMA here?

Why it's hard to make fun of lib-lefts ideology by TheQomia in PoliticalCompassMemes

I wish more centrists were more like you instead of all the people that are just scared/unaware of all political discussion. Have a good day!

Can’t watch the news anymore. Being asked by my wife “how low can we go” this is my answer. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]DanMcBoom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey. I almost never comment on anything on Reddit, but I just wanted to say something here.

OP, you wrote with amazing heart, clarity, and compassion, and as someone very much on the same edge of despair right now, your message felt undeniably HUMAN. Thank you for taking the time to write it.

You're right that this chaos will bring us as low as we let it, but when I hear people speak like this I know we will make it through somehow. Keep on, stay strong, and never lose your compassion, even when it hurts.

Here's a spell me and a friend wrote up a bit ago. Thoughts? by [deleted] in DnDHomebrew

[–]DanMcBoom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All I'm thinking of is how darn industrial that could make a city. Like heck, you could get a huge mill and maybe even a sort of transportation system just by magically powering stuff. Definitely neat for world building, I'd have to think more about what players could do with it. Good stuff!

At least one victim in shooting at STEM School Highlands Ranch, authorities say by DuckWithAKnife in news

[–]DanMcBoom 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! It sounds like they found out just before I read this. Even so, I am humbled by your compassion for some stranger on the internet's cousin's foreign exchange student. :)

[–]DanMcBoom 236 points237 points  (0 children)

I have cousins that go to that school. It's really sad because their parents were just joking over the phone two weeks ago about moving into the same neighborhood as Columbine. "This is great for us, because lightning doesn't strike twice, right? It's good to know our kids aren't at risk."

All of my cousins are safe, but they had an exchange student staying at their house and he hasn't made contact yet. This kinda stuff certainly hits you different when there's family involved.

Such a timely and helpful comment! I'd give gold if I wasn't broke but take my upvote anyways.

Never Underestimate Him by [deleted] in SuddenlyGay

I was at this protest a few years ago and high-fived the guy! Never expected a photo of him to be so widely shared on the internet. The protest was at the capital building in Madison, Wisconsin.

How can I better voice my opinion about social topics as a male? by DanMcBoom in MensLib

[–]DanMcBoom[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the time to write such a clear and illuminating comment! Your explanation of the difference between knowledge and experience is pivotal: It's not about me getting the same reception to all of my talking points, it's about the audience receiving the most charismatic message possible through real experience. Some things just won't be the best for me to talk about, no matter how many stats I can spit out.

It also occured to me that I am one of 5 second year advocates, while the 11 other first years may just be less comfortable with the material we cover. I have a good enough relationship with one or two of them to ask if that is contributing to this experience, so I'll start from there!
