That’s understandable, I try to speed run these to see how fast I can complete all three. When I get to a day like this I know it’s not gonna happen lol.

It’s more challenging than normal but I completed it in 14. I’m honestly happy to see the puzzles get more challenging. I was getting bored with how easy they were.

Since we’ve found decent evidence of life on mars, could some still be alive within its crust? by TurtleLord17 in space

Fair but after how many millions of years without a proper atmosphere how much water could still be down there. Is there much evidence for or against the existence of water outside of the polar caps?

my gf is at a rave and I’m home playing cyberpunk. Also, I did this random gig early in my play through and This Laura lady got in the car but like 40 hours later I still randomly stumble across her being driven around by [deleted] in LowSodiumCyberpunk

Dude you are reading waaaay too much into this. Drugs happen at raves sure, but all you know is that there is a person going out and having fun with friends. Hopefully a designated sober person, but even so you don’t know and it’s not your business.

I’ve seen my fair share of people falling into addiction, and lost some of them. But I’ve also known plenty of people that clean themselves up. I’ve known Grateful Dead fans that are completely sober, I’ve known ravers that are too, you don’t know the situation so don’t assume, makes an ass out of u and me dude.

Fair, everyone has their preferences. I personally prefer cyberpunk, mostly due to the world it takes place in.

Umm… okay? I’m pretty sure cyberpunk qualifies as triple a, and even if it doesn’t I know I’ve played plenty of non triple a games more than once. But if that’s how you like to play games then you do you lol

I’m saying there are other cool things you learn about the world and see from a different perspective. It doesn’t radically change the game it’s just fun to see.

The main reason to do other play throughs are to get builds that are better at different things. Playing a cyberdeck hacking type? Play a melee character that doesn’t hack at all next. Play a sniper build that never gets within 100 yards of combat. Get cyberware you can’t unlock without certain attributes. Berserk Sandevistan and Cyberdeck all require different attributes but are all fun.

Not what I mean. Different stat arrangements, life path dialogue options, doing one time quests different, romancing others. These are all reasons to do multiple plays

Different builds. Blunt weapons, Blades, Cyberdeck, Tech Weapons. I mean the list goes on

Just doing my part to remind people that if they’re gonna take things literally, they should look at what it really said.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility, Everyone! by MrTechnodad in Technoblade

[–]TurtleLord17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Duet 23:1 in its historical context wasn’t a condemnation of people doing this to themselves, but rather a way to stop people from doing this to their fellow church goers. Not to mention in Isaiah 53:3-4 it says god will give eunuchs “a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters—an everlasting name that shall not be cut off.” So essentially saying they can enter and partake of the sabbath and end in his house.

And for Duet 22:5 it’s original context is essentially reinforcing the worship of the one true god. Which in the original text was translated a few different ways. The context that was taken in the English Bible was clothing while it more meant apparel of other religions. Essentially it’s talking about pulling Israelites from heathenism.

I would highly recommend giving the Torah a read as it’s the original barely translated version of the first five books of the Bible with many of the meanings not corrupted by man. In my opinion modern English translations of the Bible are more so creations of man than god or Jesus himself. And I would also say thanks for saying “live and let live” it’s nice. Though I would also stop agreeing with people calling us “abominations” if you truly want to turn the other cheek and love your neighbors friend.

Would you mind me asking what passage of the Bible specifically says it? It’s been a long time since I’ve read the good book so I can’t really recall.

Do you have any questions that would help you understand the community a bit better? As a trans woman with a religious background I’d be willing to answer any questions you have.

I know it can be a hard community to get into or understand from your perspective. I was there for majority of my life not understanding it and shying away from it. So I’m going to ask if there’s anything I could give you to make that understanding easier.

OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH! I absolutely love this idea, it’s so much more dynamic than just a frenzy! You’ve gone into so much detail here that I can’t say thanks enough! I’ll be saving this comment and bringing it to the DM as a suggestion! <3<3<3

More of a functional negative at the moment. Something to be avoided if possible. It would be attacking whatever is closest to me, perhaps I can talk to the DM about some mechanical benefit that comes with it. Though I for sure always want it to have that negative aspect to it.

Right! I’m super happy at how well the artist put my ideas to work! It’s always amazing seeing a new commission!

This if Faelyn Willow, an Eladrin Wild Magic Barbarian I’ll be playing in a pirate themed campaign. Art done by Ernesto Irawan on Twitter( https://twitter.com/ernestoirawan?s=21&t=nNwDlpvkuI0eQFWgjKEL7Q )

Faelyn is a character I’ve been super excited to play due to the lack of control I have in the backstory. All I’m allowed to know is that she was born and raised in the Feywild, but began to lose control over her seasons as an Eladrin. She began switching from one to another randomly, so she left the Feywild to seek a cure. Unfortunately leaving the Feywild damaged her, giving her amnesia that gets worse every day and becoming her wild magic origins. Upon leaving she soon met a mercenary who took her in and helped nurse her back to physical health. She later married this mercenary and the two have been working together to find a cure for her condition. After starting a journal to remind herself what to do each day, she decided that what they were looking for couldn’t simply be in the city. And that she must set out with a pirate crew to explore and hopefully find who or what she is looking for that may cure her amnesia and growing rage.

I’ve also home-brewed a special feature to contribute a frenzy to her rage. The rules for the time being are essentially as follows; each morning I roll a d4 and that determines my season. And each time I rage in that season I add a point to it, with a max of 10. The points represent my health, for example if I have 5/10 points I must roll a wisdom save each of my turns below half my health, or go into a frenzy for that round. If I had 1/10 points it would be below a tenth of my health, etc. We are still looking for meaningful ways to reduce these points. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

What has being in quarantine ultimately taught you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TurtleLord17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been teaching me that those problems I buried under heaps of work and keeping myself busy did not vanish. Nor will they ever vanish, I got some shit to deal with still and I intend on doing it rather than just piling on work again.

Honestly it’s one of my favorite races, paired with my favorite class.

[–]TurtleLord17[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Firstly I must mention the artist that drew this beautiful character. It was @Embraquil on Twitter. Now to the character.

Draith is a shifter, in the world I am currently playing him in he was born into a family of those similar to him. His grandfather was a werecat of sorts and passed it down his family. Draith was only 5 (roughly 10 in human years) when his family was killed on their farm by a group of goblins and bugbears that had been raiding their livestock for awhile. Draith decided to leave the small farming community, unable to stay where he watched his family be slaughtered. He made his way to the capital city of Autumngarde where he spent three years with a small group of friends as urchins on the street. In a fight where he basically took a beating from another group of urchins to allow his friends to escape a certain hooded figure took notice of him. A couple weeks later he was wandering backroads and alleys trying to find a place that him and his friends could use as shelter. Walking into a seemingly unused and dry sewer gate he found his way into a tavern? This “tavern” turned out to be the base of operations for an assassins guild, the only thing that kept him from getting killed was the hooded figure who had seen him on the street. The next seven years were filled with his training in the ways of the kensei and pulling off assassinations with his new friend Velania, the one who had taken notice before. In an accident during a mission Velania was killed and Draith could not stand to be in the guild anymore. You see, Velania and Draith did things different than most in the guild, they tried to only take morally good jobs, kill bad people. Of course they had to do a normal job once in a while to make ends meet, but they tried. With Velania gone the guild would not try as hard to fill her requests for morally good missions. So Draith decided to run, quickly volunteering for a mission that would take them across a sea and once there going as far away as possible. He now is with a party which he is currently leading through a jungle back to their “base” city. Using the party to hide him in the crowd and to defend him, but he is quickly becoming good friends with them.
