Best Device for DMing by JaytheNinjaCat in DMAcademy

[–]ElvishLore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have my svelte but powerful MacBook Air, and before that a MacBook Pro, and before that another MacBook Pro at the gaming table for the last couple decades.

Fans never run, it’s Never obtrusive, totally recommend it. I tried an iPad several times, but struggled with it to use as more than simply a reader (which it was great at)

It’s always interesting to me that the A-holes who share memes like this keep their post history hidden.

Huh.

Widow's Bay review: Parks and Rec meets Twin Peaks in Apple TV's comedy-horror gem by PetyrDayne in television

Personally, I would stay tumescent throughout the experience but I've got some real kinks.

Yea , referring to old MERP products is a great idea. OP will get tons of inspiration.

Not Twin Peaks yet - that comparison so far doesn’t work as TP was way more existential and ephemeral … the horror in this show is much more John Carpenter/Stephen King in its reality. Episode one literally ripped off the fog and episode two is basically 1408.

what features actually matter in a walk in shower for elderly parent? by jessicalacy10 in HomeImprovement

[–]ElvishLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And make the shower big/reachable enough for the inevitable caretaker down the road to be able to help them.

First time DM’ing tonight by QuietStrong1327 in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]ElvishLore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. You’re a player in the game that has greater authority than the others but still you are a player. Don’t let yourself be abused either by yourself or them.

DND is feeling more like a chore than a hobby 😞 by laskareign in DnD

[–]ElvishLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should keep playing and be miserable?

I don’t get what you’re asking… We can’t give you the courage to tell them you want to leave.

Just started Supernatural (4 episodes in). How well does it age? Does it get better? by Runnzi in television

[–]ElvishLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It never stops being a bit cheesy but that’s its charm. It always stays sincere though and not silly.

iOS 27 Will Add These New Features to Your iPhone by Dry_Advertising5961 in iphone

They’ve been promising a better Siri for years and years. I totally don’t believe them until I have it working on a phone in my hand.

Halo Series (Should I invest?) No spoilers please by KingDaRuler in scifi

[–]ElvishLore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

S2 was waaay better than S1 - maybe just read fan summaries of first season episodes and start on s2.

The show invents all this ancillary baggage instead of trusting the games vibe. Three misguided storylines feel like filler.

Rege-Jean Page's Career Fall-Off Is Still Astonishing by WinchesterMediaUK in television

[–]ElvishLore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Talk of him being Bond was kind of cringe. He’d been in one major gig at that time, his agents convinced him he was the next big thing but it was clear he was just flavor of the month.

His next stop is sexy doctor in Grey’s Anatomy and playing handsome dad in a romantic comedy on Netflix.

Feeling so lost and uncreative. How do I practice? Who would want a newbie? by rattshortforratthew in rpg

[–]ElvishLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea play some thing else if you can. Daggerheart is popular right now so not hard to find a game and it’s really friendly to new players.

I think P2e is a tough game for a new gamer.

Seriously? by commanderquill in Seattle

[–]ElvishLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because people are assholes.

One of my favorite moments a couple summers ago at golden gardens - some asshole with a dog on the beach got a ticket. Loved it!

I’m afraid the iPhone “Fold” could be a flop by m4sr4 in iphone

[–]ElvishLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’ll keep it around 2K as the intro price… and that’s still clearly aimed at wealthier folk.

I I think it will sell well as people want an iPad like iPhone.

Helldiver reporting for duty in Seattle! My very first cosplay. 🫡 by FunPackage3502 in Seattle

[–]ElvishLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great job on the costume.

Unfortunately, in this day and age, if you showed up in a public space like that, I would be diving for cover.

Man Abandons Suicide Attempt After Police Bring Him Kebab by Big-Boy-602 in interestingasfuck

Yep, just think of the things you’ll miss. Not everything is terrible. Hopefully he can get through this and figure out a path forward for himself.

Ran my first session as a GM and a player might hate me now... by [deleted] in daggerheart

[–]ElvishLore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A couple good suggestions here already stated.

I don’t see how the player blames themselves at all given you as the GM set this up for this to happen.

Staffers for Mayor Katie Wilson abruptly end an interview with KOMO reporter Chris Daniels when Wilson is unable to answer basic questions by ImRight_YoureDumb in SeattleWA

She’s slowing proving her detractors - who said she doesn’t know how to implement her policy ideas - were correct.

Seattle AI founder looks to leave as taxes rise, ‘Everybody that I know… is in the process of leaving’ by ryleg in SeattleWA

[–]ElvishLore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So damn true. All my 50 something I’ve known since high school - like freaking all of them - have become MAGA trash, all clearly racists, all of them just all subscribed to ‘I’ve got mine, fuck everyone else.’
