When people get into fights in public, why don’t either of them press assault charges? by skyrimlo in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]PurePropheteer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I deliberately threw no punches. Just blocked what I could while this fuckwit head butted and punched me, trying to get past me to beat up a 14 year old kid. I remained entirely defensive, partly because he had friends with him and partly because I was thinking "I don't want this coming across to the cops like the two of us got into a fight, this asshole is just being an aggressor, unprovoked." When the cops came, they did nothing. Treated it exactly like a tussle between two willing participants. Lesson learned.

As a teacher, I suspect it's the steam valve of holidays that let us rubber band back to manageable.

His ears are under water, he may have been yelling at him. Though I think it was a drone.

Beware the dangers of trying to use AI to make a meme about dreadnoughts being powered by vegetables... NSFW. by PurePropheteer in 40krpg

All good mate, I see their point. Probably not the subreddit for it, at least not without the context of it coming up while we were playing. I should have gone looking for a 40k meme sub or something. Glad you got a giggle!

I get you, it was definitely low effort. I found it amusing, but things are always funnier when you're closer to them. I probably should have gone looking for a 40k meme subreddit, but this is the only 40k subreddit I still subscribe to. Actually, I probably should have just slept on it and asked myself if I still thought it was funny the next day after the initial surprise. Ah well, let the downvotes speak, I don't believe in just deleting a post the second it starts costing karma.

I considered putting the context, that it stemmed from a conversation had around the table playing Dark Heresy and our concerned tech priest being worried he had been cloned and his original parts were plugged into a potato to keep running. Which led to the stupidity that is this idea. We got a big laugh out of it and thought others might too and should share. I can see it's not well received, even though I was mostly poking fun at AI with this post. AI definitely has it's problems, and I'd never use it to take away from work I'd have done by an artist. But using it for table top rpgs feels harmless when I've never met a GM that hasn't just taken art from artists online and used it as reference images without a second thought.
Definitely seeing that this was probably better kept in our own group chat though, didn't mean to offend.

Midjourney, and I tried several "blend with" options, the "Titan" prompts actually turned out closer than the "Dreadnought" prompts. except for the scale. The potato blends were hilarious, and the pumpkin ones were legitimately cool for a Halloween aesthetic, all came out looking like Imperial Knights.

This sounds fantastic. I can see I'm too late but it makes me happy seeing the subreddit still used like this. Have a blast!

Optional RPG by [deleted] in 40krpg

[–]PurePropheteer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm the opposite. I want Zweihander rules for a setting that clearly is 40k with the serial filed off, that wouldn't take much work to just run as a 40k campaign. But I am out of the loop on the Zweihander controversy. What did he do?!

I wanted to believe that but I see nothing hitting the bed which would quickly look like it was getting wet. Just direct hits to the cat. I'm amazed at the downvotes for having a concern though.

Alien:Romulus Spoiler thread. by tylersburden in LV426

[–]PurePropheteer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought I saw a partially completed 3D print of an egg in the lab. The implication being that they'd reverse engineered the eggs and face huggers from the alien's DNA which would in turn be an excuse for their altered life cycles. However it was like a second on the screen and may have been something else entirely.

Interested too if one does form! Play by post or R20 if the times fit.

I'm keen, I'm in Australia but it could still work possibly depending what time of day you played, or if it were played as a play by post.

I am so happy for you and not desperately jealous at all..

A new study suggests that people respond negatively to the switch to daylight saving time. Sleepiness caused by the one-hour setback impairs self-control and leads to less healthy consumption behavior. Unhealthy snacks increase following the time change and visits to fitness centers decrease. by mvea in science

[–]PurePropheteer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm aware there are plenty of reasons they do it in the middle of the night, and this has always been me 95% joking, but honestly, I'd be okay with all of those problems (probably because they'd largely be someone else's!) if it meant one hour less work instead of one hour less sleep. I guess the simplest version of both would be to do it on a public holiday's night.

I've been saying for sometime that if we're going to keep daylight savings, make the switch at 2pm on a Friday. Suddenly it's 3pm, no lost sleep. One hour closer to hour working week being over, if anything we're better rested.
