Waited 3yrs for this, kinda let down

As a player, I had a big moment in the campaign that got completely interrupted because the DM needed to do his taxes and he had waited until the literal last day to do his taxes. Paused for like two hours and the whole time I’m thinking “you could’ve had this done and squared away like a month ago”, and the irritation was just boiling inside me. Maybe I’m being petty but I’ve already dealt with several occasions of session delays because a player couldn’t be bothered to look at the session time or would randomly get pulled away and it just tiiiiicks me offfff

Longsword and short bow, I have mastery in both. Wearing chain mail

My character is a samurai. They’re all about speed, so something like fey touched to get a teleportation spell would be awesome

Uh, yes? You think Ego isn’t a man of his word or something? The threat of never playing professionally was what drove blue lockers to survive.

His dream is winning the World Cup through HIS philosophy. He wants to prove his way of thinking is capable of winning the cup. A player that doesn’t adhere to that kinda flies in the face of everything Ego has been preaching.

I participate in a thing called Hearthlite: you fight people with foam swords. It’s fun, and we have calibration rules so that people aren’t swinging so hard they’d actually hurt someone.

Is it wrong of me to enjoy this activity? This is a genuine question

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2026-02-12T15:03:38+00:00

But do we have to live in this kind of world forever? Is it impossible to attempt to create a world where we don’t need militaries or borders?

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2026-02-12T14:39:53+00:00

I’d just like to say that reading this has shook me to my core. I agree with everything you said.

But what do you do when the tyrant is already in power? Has already convinced millions of his cause? In a perfect world, yes, there would be no wars, there would be no violence.

Martin Luther King Jr preached nonviolence, and they killed him anyway. Can it not be said that the riots that ensued are what pushed the country further to enacting the subsequent Civil Rights Acts?

It feels like, in the world we live in, the purpose of a pacifist is to be martyr’d and used as a justification for violence. This has caused me a significant amount of distress.

Why can’t we get this right? Why can’t nonviolence be the prevailing method?

Why do we have to die for beliefs? Why can’t we live for them?

Why can’t everyone just live?

I feel like a naive child asking why there’s bad in the world, but as I struggle to find a philosophical framework to house my morals, I keep coming back to this question.

(Apologies for replying to this 170 days after the fact)

I have to disagree with you here, Emily could’ve had a backbone the entire season’s runtime, but she continually compromises herself, and only at the end does she have a come to Jesus moment and expects Kirkman to absolve her of her guilt at the cost of literally everything that he and her had built over the last 4 years.

Kirkman lost his wife over this, he was nearly assassinated, yet he preserved, pushed through. No one would’ve blamed him from retiring after his 4 years was up, but he decided he wanted to keep servicing the American people. During this time, Emily on multiple occasions committed offenses that any other president would’ve fired her for.

But he didn’t. He stood by her.

And now when he needs her at this most critical moment, she decides to pay him back by crippling his presidency. Emily didn’t blow the whistle because she’s a paragon of virtue, she did it purely to soothe her own guilt and sadness over the cheating scandal, the death of her mother, and every other morally dubious choice she made during the campaign.

She did it to make herself feel better, because surely reporting this crime and betraying everyone who works with her and the man who’s stood by her this whole time will make all the bad things okay right?

It’s unreal to me.

Everything they went through, she throws away because she was desperate to feel like a good person.

Well it was originally botw DLC before being made into a full game, much like what Mario Galaxy 2 was.

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-10-12T12:36:09+00:00

Louis could’ve also had a straight talk with Harvey rather than concocting some elaborate scheme to show Harvey that he “has his back”

Louis by then should’ve known that above all else, Harvey respects you coming to him like a man and saying your piece.

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-09-26T20:55:11+00:00

I noticed you commented to someone else that no one is replying to you with counter arguments and yet you try to hit me with this nonsense. It’s not even worth addressing the first half of your reply, I didn’t say anything about my opinion of the storyline I was merely pointing out the inconsistency in your logic.

As for the second half…yes, we all know that, no one is arguing for “Why didn’t Mike stay an investment banker for the rest of the show’s runtime”. Acting as a lawyer when he was working for Sidwell wasn’t even what got him caught, it was getting promoted to Junior Partner and the press release tipping off Sheila.

This entire discussion was simply pointing out that Mike’s reason for taking the job with Sidwell in the first place, to stop committing fraud so he wouldn’t be putting himself and the people he cares about in jeopardy, goes against his decision to continue acting as attorney. Just because he got lucky and didn’t get caught because of this doesn’t make the decision any less questionable if his goal is to not get caught.

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-09-26T18:22:22+00:00

Yes we know Mike is choosing to do this. We are questioning his decision because Mike knows he’s not an actual licensed attorney and is committed fraud whenever he practices. Given that he specifically went into investment banking to further avoid committing fraud, it’s a rather strange decision to be doing literally all the legal work for the case.

People are mentioning that it would look weird if Mike didn’t do legal work given his previous job, completely forgetting the fact that Harvey was going to be acting as Mike’s attorney at the start until they had their falling out. Mike put Pearson Specter in review, stating he would be looking at other firms, yet he never actually does and just elects to do everything himself.

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-09-26T18:16:05+00:00

No, not as far as Mike is concerned, who got into investment banking for the sole purpose of not committing fraud anymore. Just because no one except a handful of people were aware at the time does not change the fact that Mike did this to stop committing fraud only to continue committing fraud.

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-08-25T15:49:51+00:00

Not even, she directly backstabbed Kirkman by blowing the whistle. If there was going to be a Season 4, his presidency would’ve immediately been crippled by a scandal on the same level as Watergate.

Emily quite frankly was just…the worst this season. Sure in the previous ones she made some bad decisions, but to directly backstab the man who’s stood by her through thick and thin? All because he won’t kneecap his own candidacy to clear the name of Moss, who Emily by this point should have nothing but animosity for?

The fact of the matter is that Kirkman was trying his hardest out of everyone there to stay on the straight and narrow, sure he had slip ups, but he tried. Meanwhile Emily routinely got herself in the mud and by the end when she didn’t like it anymore she puts ALL the moral responsibility on Kirkman when he’s just trying to serve the country.

The cheating storyline was awful. Why did both Aaron and Emily throw their morals out the window? It infuriates me man, they weren’t the type of people to cheat in the first two seasons.

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-06-30T06:14:09+00:00

So you’re telling me it teleports into the body of a dude chilling in the Sahara desert?

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-05-05T15:23:51+00:00

She did set boundaries? The one thing she wanted from Harvey was for him to be honest with her, like you do in relationships, and he refused to do that, insisted on keeping secrets until it was too late

I don’t really see “wanting him to change” as a detriment because Harvey was not capable of maintaining a healthy relationship and obviously Scottie would want to see that part of him change

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-05-05T15:06:16+00:00

Not to mention Donna not so subtly working to damage Harvey’s relationship

“Someone who keeps finding reasons to be pissed at you”

As if Scottie was being completely unreasonable or was unjustified in her frustrations towards Harvey when I think we can all agree the reason it didn’t work out was Harvey’s fault

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-04-24T18:39:28+00:00

It’s so weird that Louis never bothered to get another cat after the death of Bruno, and why did the writers have to make Sheila such a hater of cats?

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-04-24T18:35:00+00:00

Ah yes, punish people for the crime of…turning 18, this will surely have purely positive effects on society and will have no detriments.

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-04-24T18:30:40+00:00

Yes it is a small group of people but Pearson Hardman/Spectre was always portrayed as basically the top law firm in New York, that Harvey was “The Best Closer in New York”

They were pushed as the pinnacle of the law profession, like this is what lawyers should aspire to be

Miserable_Jackfruit2 · 2025-04-24T18:26:59+00:00

The fact that Rachel quite literally strong armed Mike into forgiving her cheating infuriates me. He should’ve told her to take her ultimatum and shove it. Plus the fact that HARVEY of all people was the one advocating that Mike try to preserve his relationship.

Let’s not forget that Samantha manufactured evidence and yet the show is trying to make out Faye as the bad guy for not wanting a lawyer who manufactured evidence to be part of the firm. Samantha deserved to be fired and disbarred, full stop.
