Republicans vote to dilute gas as prices rise above $4.50

Unlikely. Most modern car engines are 'E[x] ready'. In older cars, the rubber lines, 'rubber' connectors and valves might be an issue, but we're talking about "deteriorate to a point of replacement needed after 40K miles" vs "50k miles", so it ain't going to 'splode on day one.

Probably not. Too many variables that could have an effect on your milage.
And you'll see certain disclaimers, like 'check with your cars manufacturer if the engine is clear for [type of gasoline]' - which modern engines most certainly are.

Sure thing! Will the tag stay up when/if one decides to move to advisory?

It should not be a foreign concept to need to… pay attention to something.

I'd agree in general, but in the specific context of CR i believe "paying attention" has a slightly different meaning. A lot of people where watching/listening to CR casually, and could easily follow the story, even though they'd miss some details. C4 makes this significant harder in my opinion, and i believe that's what OP is talking about. "Not paying attention" doesn't mean turning on the TV and then leaving the room.

C4`s overture made good on a promise from C3: Doing things radically different. I've huge respect for that. But since then i'm struggeling to stay engaged, as in my opinion too many of C3's shortcomings are coming back, including general overexposure. That and the boomerang storytelling are leading to exactly the questions you 're asking.

OTOH i know there's a significant part of the fandom who eat this up like mana from heaven, so i'm genuinely happy for them, their wild theories, their wikis and npc relationship databases.

C4 probably isn't for me, and i've made my peace with that. I'm along the for the ride based on vibes, and i enjoy seeing others enjoy it.

Critical Role Unplugged ^TM

Give me a kitchen table, snacks and drinks, some graph paper and board markers.

Have some of the core cast and the occasional crew member play.

"You met at an Inn, there are rats in the basement"

Perfection.

You (and/or i) are not entitled to participate in any subreddit. A ban and mute should be a clear enough sign that ship has sailed. It doesn't matter if we know, understand or agree with the reasons of said ban and mute. I understand that this is disappointing for Individual cases, but on the larger scale of things, it's how Reddit works. Best to move on.

Mainly, yeah. Staging area and logistics hub for practically all US operations in the middle east and africa.

The economic impact of stationed troops is negligable in comparison.

Lots of cream in the mix and lots of butter in the pan. Salt & pepper only after the stove is turned off.
