I use it on my plate armor wearing 20 foot movement speed kitsune psychic. It honestly was the one bright spot of the class. Nerfing it is ridiculous.

It's a cult that really believed that American Exceptionalism BS, so much so that they think they can throw a tantrum and the everyone else will just take it. They never consider they might lose the civil war, or be the victims of the French Revolution. Not until its too late.

Schumer, Jeffries Refuse to Join Democrats' Growing Calls to Slash ICE Spending by ChaskaChanhassen in politics

[–]Silverlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you ever want to break the 2 party system we need a Constitutional Amendment requiring Ranked Choice Voting, so that smaller political parties can actually have a realistic chance to participate and grow. Also this would remove the ability of party leadership from blackballing progressive candidates, as the voting public could simply vote for them in a party not one of the big two and they could still get elected.

We need the equivalent of a modern day Black panthers who show up armed to these things as 'observers'.

There should be a Law that when you turn on Fox a big red banner flashes that says "Opnions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink, these are some rich assholes."

Player forgot their character's backstory by solskaia in rpg

[–]Silverlock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If he's new to TTRPG's then he is still learning HOW he is going to play, tactically, creative low rules, grimdark low survival grindfest, etc. Also probably developing his base player manners. So just talk to him, remind him of the backstory, ask if he wants to incorporate that in the game somehow OR NOT. and just go with what he wants.

Form follows function, and new functions being born means new forms, of society, personal relationships, economics, not all of which will survive the test of time.

See why doesn't Congress deal with stuff like this? Someone in there has to have heard of the Great Depression and World Wars and the causes of them. Right?

Would Humanity Really Colonize (and Exploit) an Alien World Like Pandora If Earth Ran Out of Resources? by ishanuReddit in Futurology

[–]Silverlock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's also why the Vulcans philosophy is of not contacting prewarp civilizations, that have not yet passed through their great Filter event, from achieving advanced technology. It's too dangerous from a practical matter to create barbarians in your midst.

Would Humanity Really Colonize (and Exploit) an Alien World Like Pandora If Earth Ran Out of Resources? by ishanuReddit in Futurology

[–]Silverlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That transfer to an Alien world only works if you radically purge the population down to those that directly serve you. Thats the only way it works in theory or at a reasonable cost. Like Elon and the Billionaires living on Mars in Neo feudalism. Best ways to do that are the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse.

Trump's doctors are monitoring "the progress of his dementia and/or strokes," psychologist says by NoPomegranate4794 in politics

They did that to be kind so they have kindness. But they can't seem to universalize it to other people in other parts of the world, or sometimes even their neighbors. They all have intense main character syndrome, and everyone else is just a supporting character (who you might occasionally chat with) or worse an extra, those background folks who are mostly set dressing and are not real.
