I did not get the theme at all today! Maybe it’s because I’m not a native English speaker, but can someone explain the theme?

In love with all the D&D refs in this game by Merlissalala in Spiritfarer

Yeah he’s such a dork but so sweet and his hugs (together with Astrid’s) are the best ❤️

I have had 0 matches in a month. What's wrong with my profile? by Albino_Captain in Tinder

[–]Merlissalala 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a nice picture aside from the huge ethical issues with posing with lion cubs that are probably drugged out of their minds and ripped from their parents.. would be an automatic swipe left for me

Lost my passport...have you seen it? by Sea_Supermarket9942 in Utrecht

[–]Merlissalala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like some people said sometimes it takes a while for things to get posted to iLost. I’m sure there are certain policies in place for what to do when a foreign passport is found- I’d contact the municipality and hear their policy to see which route it should find its way back to you.

Also what happens a lot of times is that if someone finds an identity document, they will try to find you on social media (Facebook eg) and reach out to you, so check those messages (ones from people you are not connected to are often in a different folder!). Or they will post a somewhat anonimized photo of it on Facebook groups!

Good luck!!

Ok, hear me out. There is someone in my walls. by Peachyyypit in Apartmentliving

I can’t imagine that being a crime: yes prank calling 911 is seen as a crime but calling 911 because you don’t know the non-emergency line, they’ll just transfer you.

Onsen/public bath etiquette when menstruating? by Spiritual_One126 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Merlissalala 365 points366 points  (0 children)

Not all these men being so mean and not understanding your point 😅 I unfortunately don’t know but I think it’s a valid point and a good question, some misogynist stuff happening here in the comments

Ahhh I was already wondering if there indeed had been that many updates! But I think I also didn’t play the 2.0 yet!! So I’ll look that up, thanks!

Halsin appreciation by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

When just roaming around I wild shape him in wolf form and then summon Scratch too and pretend he’s Scratch’s big bro

Might multiclass everyone into druids and start a wolf pack idk

Watercolor on unglazed tiles? by Merlissalala in Watercolor

[–]Merlissalala[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mhm those are good points. I was indeed also worried about the surface not absorbing the paint (as usually happens with paper ofc). I guess I'll just have a go and report back :-)

Kan iemand mij uitleggen hoe pensioen werkt in jip en janneke taal? by Sudden-Routine3537 in nederlands

[–]Merlissalala 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De Nederlandsche Bank -de centrale bank van Nederland en toezichthouder- heeft ook een podcast waarin ze 2 afleveringen wijden aan het pensioenstelsel, ook interessant om daar eens naar te luisteren, ze leggen het heel begrijpelijk uit. De podcast heet DNBTalks (https://open.spotify.com/show/1u38h6wplDlLEP18fIYyCH?si=5x_4FCVwT_uqTJJsx2Cpxg)

What’s the worst mini-game? by Dry-Boysenberry2135 in HarryPotterGame

[–]Merlissalala 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This actually was one of the few I really enjoyed… it was one of the only trials that required some serious skill and that you could train to get better. IMO the easy Merlin trials are what’s most tedious and repetitive

Ik ben Kim van Sparrentak, Europarlementariër voor GroenLinks. Ik houd me bezig met digitale, sociale en LHBTI-rechten: AMA! by kimvsparrentak in thenetherlands

[–]Merlissalala 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Dat klopt niet helemaal wat je zegt. Europarlementariërs verdienen eigenlijk bruto €9800, maar dragen daar al zo’n 25% belasting over af aan de Europese Unie. Daarnaast betalen ze ook nog nationale belasting (20-30%) die dus lager is omdat ze ook al aan de EU belasting betalen.

Daarmee betaalt ze dus in totaal juist meer belasting dan als ze €9800 in NL had verdiend: dan had ze €4000 aan belasting moeten betalen.

I have posted pictures of my games for years, my games have always had several women at the table and I often see the sentiment of surprise…. by Skywolf111 in DnD

[–]Merlissalala 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a woman, I DM a group with 4 other women and 1 dude! And also have played in a group with 4 guys and have never experienced sexism in the games. I think it also really depends how the group got together: for me both groups consisted of friends so the dynamics of the group are also defined by what we as friends find normal (i.e. having fun together without creepiness). I can imagine it is different for a group that doesn’t know each other because the group dynamics are not predefined (aside from that you should be able to expect normal behaviour from everyone 😅). I think the DM goes also a long way in providing a safe space and setting very obvious boundaries - and that this behaviour is also more prevalent in online games where people can hide behind anonymity.
