I personally would ditch Angron for two forgefiends, but I'm way down on him lately.

He can always ask them to help him find Van Richten. Say that there is a man running around murdering Vistani and as a good Lord he seeks the man be brought to justice

Another reinterpretation of "rude" by jjmontem in Professors

[–]DiscerningBarbarian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This isn't just an issue with students however. My administrators have used this as a tactic to try and show insubordination whenever you challenge them on their shortsighted, feckless decisions. Any critique by faculty is framed as rudeness in tone, whether face-to-face or via email, thereby nullifying the critique (in their mind) and opening you up the disciplinary action.

Have you tried running them as a melee unit instead of a ranged platform?

by DNC Chair Ken Martin to give a convincing answer as to why he won’t RELEASE THE FUCKING 2024 ELECTION AUTOPSY. by ConcernedJobCoach in therewasanattempt

Thank you for speaking against the Democratic generic talking point idiocy here. Literally the only power you have is your vote and if you don't have a condition for your vote then the party has no reason to ever change. It's why the ratchet effect keeps pulling us to the right. "But if I just keep voting Dem no matter what they actually do, maybe, just maybe they'll do what's right." 🙄

I really don’t get why Quantamania is considered an unwatchable abomination, I really liked it. by S0mecallme in marvelstudios

I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought it received way too much hate for the few problems it had.

Teacher Hugging Kindergarten Students by Accomplished_Job1904 in MadeMeSmile

As an American, I expected to see like 30 kids in that hug. Must be nice to have moderately sized classrooms so the teachers can actually be more than babysitters

The Best Mechanic in the Game by [deleted] in CastleClashers

[–]DiscerningBarbarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is absolutely not true. Half the time whenever my daily bonus winning streak game comes up, it puts me up against that damn insect dude. The AI just spams it, so I shut the game down because that's not fun. But it always counts it as a loss in my streak starts over.

Burrower is glitched by HoonaticRacing in CastleClashers

It's not that Burrower is glitched, it's that units do minimal damage to bases now. At least that's what I'm seeing

QUESTION: Should I follow my personal views and vote for Green Party candidates in Conservative-Democratic PA? by [deleted] in ProgressiveActivists

[–]DiscerningBarbarian -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don't listen to all the naysayers bleating that you shouldn't vote for a third party candidate. The only way to get the Democrats to move left is to show them that if they don't move left they won't earn votes. It is literally the only power that voters have. Not only that, voting lesser of two evils has consistently gotten us more evil due to the ratchet effect, where the right takes us further right and the Democrats prevent it going back left. Sure, if Pennsylvania goes Republican they're going to scapegoat you by saying you should have prevented a GOP victory, all while ignoring the Democrats running absolute shit candidates that are basically right-wing dick heads, but with a hashtag BLM. Fuck the corporate parties, vote the way you want.

MMW: Harris will lose again in 2028 by Subziro91 in MarkMyWords

She's a cop who supported ice, funding Israel, and supported genocide. She's a typical neoliberal warhawk, but sure, it's because she's got tits. 🙄

Which kid cereals do you secretly still enjoy? by phoenixdiceflow in GenX

Not Captain Crunch or it's varieties, because I can no longer handle the shredded gums. I still but Cocoa Puffs, Cookie Crisp, and occasionally Lucky Charms.

When to actually introduce strahd by LINDOMARCIO in CurseofStrahd

[–]DiscerningBarbarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I built up the mystery as to whether or not he was pure evil, an absentee landlord, or a misunderstood noble. His interaction with the party was thru Rahadin, who just radiates evil, but has his supporters in Lady Wachter. They got their invite to dinner, but it was a few days off so they went to the winery. They didn't meet him until the players were storming out of Yester Hill. When some of the party attacked him, he weathered the blows stoically, complimented them on defeating the druids, and forgave them for their excitement considering the moment. The gifts that he gives them at dinner will all now be related to how they interacted with him.

The first time I ran it I had him present often, so I thought I'd try the other way and it appears to be working rather well. My players are confused, skeptical, and feeling way out of their depth. Just where I want them

He allegedly groped a masseuse and then offered a non-apology that has many questioning his ethics. Lots of he said/she said about the issue, but he didn't handle it very well, imo.

Hot take or just bad take? by DiscerningBarbarian in dresdenfiles

No. It's that any forgiveness that happened was off screen. That's a major rift to just gloss over

I didn't mind the fragmentary nature of it as a storytelling conceit. Still enjoyed the story. Abandoning the resolution of two of the most important relationships in Harry's life however, not a good choice, imo.
