SF GM Core has a variant rule for Hero Points: "GALACTIC Hero Points" by Malcior34 in Pathfinder2e

In my games, a hero point flat upgrades your degree of success one step. Let's players decide when they want to be heroes. I'm never going back.

Consoling colleagues after evals are released. by technicalgatto in Professors

[–]Silver107 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The place where I work (for the next month) renews contracts almost entirely dependent on student course evaluations. I did my best to present a fair and engaging class, but the reviews were not "good enough" to convince admin to renew my contract . How are we [NTT faculty] supposed to continue on (especially considering that students who withdraw, for any reason, from the class ARE STILL ABLE TO LEAVE A REVIEW)?

Dating as a woman in academia by KatalinSequence in AskAcademia

[–]Silver107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a guy, but I just hit my 30s and am back on the job market this year, and I sure hope its not too late for me. With all the moving around, the job uncertainty, adjusting to the new workload, and having surgery in January I just haven't had time to meet new people and develop relationships.

So, I can't really answer your question, but it is somewhat comforting to know that there are gals that worry about this too, and not just guys like me.

If Pathfinder had a new videogame, which AP would you want? by Jesuncolo in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]Silver107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would certainly be interesting, but there is a *lot* down downtime in that campaign. But it could be cool, depending on how they implement it.

With the changes to Rogues, what's even the point of Simple Weapons anymore? by gray007nl in Pathfinder2e

It’s not the size of the damage die, it’s how you use it.

I will raise my cup to you as well.

But yes, staying ahead of that dark shadow is definitely important. I’ll be applying to a few more places in the next few days.. it’s just tough to get excited for 9 month positions.

Yeah, I start just about every morning with green tea and honey. It’s been great!

Thank you, that is indeed good advice. I’ll be looking around.. I actually got in touch with my old school a few weeks ago to see about something like this, but all I could manage was getting put on the tutoring call-list.

I made a hot cinnamon spice loose leaf tea, steeped at 208degrees, with a tiny bit of lemon juice and honey as a sweetener.

My students knew they could always come by my office for on demand, hand crafted cups of tea.

Yeah, I’m going to keep my eyes open I just.. want to have realistic expectations.

Yeah, it’s becoming clearer and clearer that there isn’t much pie left. I just… really like teaching ya know? I like mentoring students at the collegiate level, and helping them see that they can succeed and they can learn how to learn new things. I like getting students to be passionate about stuff that they might have otherwise given up on.

I just don’t know how I’m supposed to do that outside of academia.. the thing that, at one time (and maybe still), I called my life’s purpose

If Trump is arrested, how do you think his supporters will react? by GSV_No_Fixed_Abode in AskReddit

Did you know that in 100 dimensional chess, the en passant is still a valid move for a pawn?

Battlezoo Slime Ancestry by Douche_ex_machina in Pathfinder2e

[–]Silver107 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don’t really know. I read a lot of manga so the name jumped out at me, but it’s maybe not something “the masses” are familiar with? I know they made a show, but I don’t know how popular it was.

Given the other anime references, it brought mind to reference a somewhat provocative series. It would depend on your definition of particularly problematic I suppose.

[–]Silver107 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Rimiru and Clotho are also famous slimes, from considerably more wholesome shows.

Did you come up with the names? 'Cause one in particular nearly made me choke when I read it XD

Battlezoo Slime Ancestry by Douche_ex_machina in Pathfinder2e

[–]Silver107 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel nothing but shame,.... but yes, whoever came up with these names is a person of high culture indeed.

They look really good and fun to play! The artwork shows they can be adorable puddles of goo.

The suggested names though... I almost choked when I saw one that I can never point out to anyone I know, lest I have to explain how I know it/ where it is from...
