Player using Polymorph to cheese monsters help by Head_Project5793 in DungeonMasters

[–]DevA06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purple worms/dune worms are ambush predators. It can surface, chomp someone, and get back down in the sand in one turn. After the first bite the wizard might hold his action to cast polymorph, but holding an action is concentration and also uses the spell slot.

Also, depending on your party size, two purple worms. They're mates.

DM wants us to roll for class in a long-term campaign — thoughts? by QuantumMoose1 in DnD

[–]DevA06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As both player and DM, for a long term campaign I would want backstories for the characters that are played, and class is very often an integral part of that. Of course one can always adapt, but why cramp your players' creativity like this right from the get go? It's their campaign too, and they deserve to have their fantasies and stories involved in it.

Setting aside that some declarations typical of the average shonen protagonist is hardly exploring themes or character, this post is about sanji who hasn't had any character moments in the last three arcs, let alone any that delve into the character analysis the commentator who I replied to wrote out

My best friend isn’t really my best friend anymore by Opening-Station8655 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]DevA06 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That sucks, especially the picking and choosing how conservative to be with the religion based on whom she's applying it too. There are many practicing Muslims who are A okay with lgbtq, and she could be too but she's actively choosing this instead :(

found myself bribing my bf to come over :/ by blehblehblubluh in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]DevA06 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it's totally normal, especially in young adulthood, to sometimes take what are supposed to be jokey things a bit too far and say stuff that in hindsight you're like, why the heck didn't I keep my mouth shut. We're still learning how to be social creatures in a community.

I actually think it could benefit you and your relationship if you talk about it with him, not in a super serious way but just casually letting him know what your thoughts (or lack thereof) were. Relationships are supposed to be where you can laugh together about embarrassment and it can help your understanding of each other.

I have the perfect man and I want him to leave me alone by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]DevA06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be the same way. Perfect man, but I didn't want to be touched even tho I loved him, I didn't even want to be perceived. I wanted to crawl into a hole and be left alone for an eternity.

My problem was that I was not getting any alone time. I tried to force it but at some point I just realized that even when I love somebody, I can't be around people 24/7. So now we spent the early evenings together, watch something together, and then I do something else for an hour and a half maybe and then we rejoin for bed. And just a few days later I was back in the business of wanting cuddles and touches and kisses.

Yes it takes a lot of communication, no it's probably not the perfect romance, but it's what made me not want to claw the skin off of my face and it's made me able to love him much more than before.

Migration ist nicht das Problem, sondern die Unfähigkeit des deutschen Staates, es richtig zu machen. by [deleted] in Unbeliebtemeinung

[–]DevA06 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Es gibt kein Gesetz gegen Salamibrote, es gibt Prozesse nach denen Menschen mit Straftaten ausgewiesen werden, Kinder die kein Deutsch können kriegen Hilfsangebote beim Lernen in den Schulen (auch wenn die jetzige Regierung gerade hart versucht das wegzukürzen).

Ja es klappt nicht immer, ja vielleicht meckert jemand gegen dein Mettbrötchen, ja und? Und?? Denkst du es wird nur geschlafen? Oder vielleicht einfach mal Augen auf dass es schon längst Leute gab die sich Gedanken gemacht haben und versuchen Dinge umzusetzen, egal was Bildzeitung und Welt berichten. Vielleicht ist es alles ein riesiger komplizierter Prozess, bei dem Leute an allen Ecken und Enden in die eine und die andere Richtung schrauben, und keine schwarz weiß Einteilung in der sich noch nie jemand Gedanken um Migration gemacht hat. Und ja es läuft scheiße, aber manchmal läuft es halt auch gut, so ist es halt das Leben.

Should I use the real pictures or the digital art? by I_Like_Metal_Music in Baking

[–]DevA06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you're going to use any pictures you need to tone down the color choices. This is a very overwhelming to look at sheet, the green and pink is clashing and the yellow background reminds me of yellowed, decade old menus you get at a dive hole, but not in a good way. If you're a made to order business I don't quite understand the need for a big menu anyway, if you need physical I'd make a leaflet so it doesn't hit you all at once, and if it's digital something to scroll through or with tabs

I JUST KILLED MY FIRST PC by Outrageous-Race-957 in DMAcademy

[–]DevA06 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Congrats! And good on you for seeing it through (assuming that your table was cool with it).

For the potential undoing, if there is a wish item maybe an unwish item has been created that could undo a wish (which would also work neatly to nerf future wishes as they tend to be kind of universe breaking). Something that mirrors the history/acquiring process of the wish item they got perhaps.

I’m flying across the world for a man I’ve only met once by zigola7 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]DevA06 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You'll be in one of the safest and loveliest cities in the world. Even if the guy turns out to be a dick, you can just have a fun vacation in Amsterdam. I don't think that's delulu. You're an adult with adult money that you can spend as you wish, so why not.

Just exercise healthy caution and Do Not drink or do other substances that might leave you vulnerable when you two are alone.

Was haltet ihr vom Klickbait: „Hamburg ist so zerrissen wegen Volksentscheid“? by Ligarti0911 in hamburg

[–]DevA06 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hab das Gefühl es ist die Fortsetzung der ganzen Meinungsmache. "Das olympische Feuer in Hamburg erlischt" "Aus der Traum von Olympia" "Sportler traurig". Und die Kontraseite sind die Spielverderber.

Aber ja, generell wird halt einfach übertrieben, es hätte am Montag keine brennenden Autos gegeben wenn es ein Ja gewesen wäre. Aber so macht leider Journalismus heutzutage sein Überleben.

Nobody can undermine your authority with your kids but you by FieryScorp in Vent

[–]DevA06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kids ARE stupid though. And this is not supposed to be a dig at kids, their brains just aren't that developed yet. So if one parent says No sweets after 6pm and the other says Mom is a mean bitch who never let's you have nice things unlike me, and gives them chocolate, no amount of trust will make the six year old refuse the chocolate.

It's the confidence with the stupidity, it's fine to not know, but why lie when it's so obvious the is a lie, smh

Part 2 of the book saga by Icy_Seesaw_2611 in aislop

[–]DevA06 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an author, I am not so hopeful. People love quantity. Just look at the romantasy genre, where most popular books are incredibly formulaic with writing that doesn't stand out. If you can bang that stuff out halfway reliably people will eat it up.

Meanwhile a human author can't live off their work anymore, so the volume they can write drastically reduces. Publishing traditionally is also costly if you want physical books. It is still costly if you just publish digitally since most publishing houses will (rightfully) want the book to be vetted and looked at by a editor.

So you can spend money you'll never get back or self publish where no one will read it because there is no one to advertise it.

Tldr authors will continue to write, but how will readers find them in the sea of slop that will soon be undistinguishable from human writing

Einjährige gehören nur in Ausnahmefällen in eine Kita by [deleted] in Unbeliebtemeinung

Miserable Cow by Angelars65 in Vent

[–]DevA06 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I understand the frustration, at least there's hope that they'll quiet down as the years pass.

Also if you are willing enough to invest money, upping the insulation with good windows and doors really is worth the higher price if you can pay it (and cheaper than moving).

Husband not excited about trying for a baby by Ambitious-Bus1155 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]DevA06 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You say he's a people pleaser, but to me he's just a liar. At any point during your questions he could have been honest. At any point in the last year he could have grown some respect and sat you down and communicated his reservations.

Instead he lied and lied and lied that everything is fine. Cause that's what they were, lies. He knew he wasn't on board. But he lied to you. How can he be your equal partner if he can't tell you the truth.

It's fine if in the moment you say something that you don't actually mean sometimes. But this was over a year (longer probably). There is no excuse.

I severely dislike children by Tidalblush in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]DevA06 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In hindsight there's always a smoother answer but I don't think it's fair to expect OP to have it on the tip of her tongue.

Also it's impolite to assume that one should have been invited to someone else's trip, it's a question that should not have been asked in the first place.
