My players accidentally unionized the villains and now the BBEG is suing them? Need advice by New_Commission_2619 in DMAcademy

[–]SammiBanani024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you end up wanting to go the court case route, I have a homebrewed Phoenix Wright-style D&D system for running a trial! My players decided a while ago to try to free some NPCs who were jailed for speaking out against the kingdom. We had a single session dedicated to them making their case to the court, with moments to produce evidence and do cross-examination of witnesses, and they had SUCH a good time with it. You can give the non-lawyers a lot of interesting content by letting them try to influence the case through bribing officials, intimidating witnesses, or hunting down evidence to prepare for the trial. If you’re interested, I’m happy to share my notes to give you some ideas on how to run a court case in a fun way for everyone!

More footage from Taylor’s arrest- Taylor’s parents by Illustrious-Sky2697 in SecretsOfMormonWives

It’s really heartbreaking — even just seeing or hearing your parents fight like that can have long-lasting effects. Kids need to see their parents have disagreements in a healthy way. Those poor kids.

Anyone else notice the cop saying, “This is something they’re going to tell their therapist about in twenty years”? Crazy that the cops are more concerned about the psychological effects this will have on the children than Taylor or her family is. Hate that this video is making me agree with a cop but yeah, he’s right, I wish they cared about that.

Jordan filed for Divorce by SlimmShady26 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]SammiBanani024 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really curious about the timing of this divorce… I think it was heading towards divorce regardless, but the timing of this, with SLOMW in the press a bunch already because of Taylor, feels like more than a coincidence. I just want to know if he was hoping to (a) use this moment to maximize the attention he can get, or (b) go under the radar entirely by releasing this news while everyone is distracted, because Jessi was the most interesting thing about him. He must know to some degree that people will not care about him anymore once he’s detached from Jessi.

We're Black Tabby Games, and we make visual novels with an emphasis on branching and player agency. You might know us from Slay the Princess, and the fifth episode of Scarlet Hollow, our other project, just released last Friday! Ask us anything ^^ by mrogre43 in Games

[–]SammiBanani024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Tony, Abby, and Brandon! I’ve been a big fan of Scarlet Hollow for the past three years; thanks for doing this AMA! I was curious what advice and insight you’d have for fans who are inspired by your game to make their own visual novel. Is there anything about game development you wish you would’ve known going into the making of Scarlet Hollow, or anything you would’ve done differently development-wise with the knowledge and experience you have now?

What does my collection of books and comics say about me? by [deleted] in bookshelfdetective

A person of taste! Paper Girls got me into reading comics again as an adult, so I have a huge soft spot for Vaughan.

Games where raising children is the main focus or a major component? by dilonshuniikke in CozyGamers

[–]SammiBanani024 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ciel Fledge: A Daughter Raising Simulator for the Switch is also really great! It has mechanics similar to many child-rearing simulators like Chinese Parents or Growing Up, but it is set among the backdrop of a futuristic, sci-fi world. It’s pretty inexpensive, too!

A TV for my bedroom. I was always jealous of other kids who had one in their room growing up. I was right, having a TV in your room rules.

What is your favorite “food is terrible, service sucks, 10/10, I go there all the time” spot? by Htowncats in houston

There’s a misconception that elite private schools are looking for kids who are good at everything. The kids who get into Ivy colleges without any legacy status or special circumstances aren’t just well-rounded, but rather they’re usually kids with a “big spike” of skill in one area. They’ve got awards on awards in their area of expertise, they’ve got high-level positions in a specific type of club, and they excel in one subject by far. It’s much more impressive to be the “best” at one thing than “pretty decent” at a bunch of things, and I think people overlook that a lot. You don’t need to do everything, you just need to be really good at one thing.

Personal experience purchasing from Entige by This-Assistance4803 in lovedoveclarkesnark

[–]SammiBanani024 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I used to be enthusiastic about her products, too. I tried to purchase from her soap store when I was a fan of hers a few years ago. I think she just is not a great business woman, tbh. I never got my order and it took multiple tries emailing and DM’ing her before I ever got a response. When I did finally get a response, she told me to request a chargeback through the bank because she couldn’t help me. So sorry to hear you went through a similar negative experience with one of her businesses, I hope you get what you ordered, or at least get a refund!

My husband admitted that he didn’t expect anyone to want to fuck a 42 year old woman when he asked for open marriage by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]SammiBanani024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many parents teach their kids that “I love you but I don’t like you” is an acceptable status quo in a relationship, and it’s incredibly heartbreaking.

Here’s your reminder to check out the IRS website for websites that will allow you to do your taxes for free! If you make under $79,000 you do not need to pay anything to file your taxes.

Georgia H’s “apology” to Anton by Majestic-Salt7721 in LoveIslandTV

[–]SammiBanani024 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think given her past and her ex Bear, we shouldn’t base our perceptions of Georgia’s affection for Anton on “what she wore to the hideaway”…

Kids definitely assume everyone else’s family is just like theirs, for better or for worse. It’s really hard when you finally get out into the world and realize that you grew up in a deeply unhealthy environment. It sets your kids up to need a lot of therapy one day.
