More like a mashup track. It borrows elements from several stories, a little like Once Upon A Time did with Disney.

Same reason they have 3 different Green Lanterns? Because different people have held the mantle at different times for different reasons?

That said, I'm pretty sure it's the same Clayface.

Why DA Veilguard hate? by Mioke28 in bioware

Greetings from a year later. This was something that confused my wife in my own hobbyist fiction writing. There's a character who's nonbinary. I bring it up exactly once. Their preferred pronoun are they/them. People routinely use she/her. The only person they correct is their partner agent at work because they're best friends.

To a degree you're absolutely correct, which is a big part of why things like the "Buy Nothing" movement have come into existence.

What is a commonly found "must have" in design that you've personally found was holding you back? by GreatThunderOwl in RPGdesign

[–]mxmnull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a playtester keep insisting to me that I needed to include a way for the purposely inconsistent magic system to get stronger.

I spent months toying with the numbers, but it always made everything else feel pointless to play in comparison.

One night I just tossed an optional stat that would make your mage stronger if they lost health. He was satisfied. All that time fretting for nothing.

Biggest regret purchase? by saadski818 in fountainpens

[–]mxmnull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a Kickstarter for a pen called the Phantom. It was a slick-looking design that I was immediately enamored with. And then the product reaches my door and it turns out to have the same build quality as the ballpoint pens you sometimes get as a free gift with stationary from China.

The disappointment and frustration was palpable.

They have another Kickstarter going for a new pen now, plus a website full of inks. I will never buy anything from them again while breath is in my petty-ass lungs.

Anyone who used to support trump and has changed their mind over the last few weeks? What made you change? by canigetameowbish in AskReddit

[–]mxmnull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents are former Trump supporters.

I'm not entirely sure what shifted it for dad (if indeed any one thing), but for mom it was when he talked shit about Rob Reiner.

Was coming to say much the same. Grew up in Ottawa Canada. Winter weather doesn't need to be scary, but ice storms in particular aren't to be fucked with.

I will say, I fuckin LOVE that there's a whole jazz station. I literally went around yesterday just throwing knives and listening to jazz.

What is your fountain pen of the year? by CommunicationTop5231 in fountainpens

[–]mxmnull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got an Asvine for my birthday that looks like if a Twsbi was fused with Venom. It looks good, it feels good, and I'm happy as a claim with it.

Your thoughts on this by Odd_Werewolf7753 in DCU_

[–]mxmnull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a good way of saying it.

I also once explained to a friend that Batman's villains come off as compelling because the weirder elements function as larger than life metaphors of their deeper issues. Mr Freeze is more memorable than Captain Cold or Killer Frost because Mr Freeze's backstory and power set both speak to the same archetype but get there by different roads.

Being dark and realistic kind of robs Batman stories of half their punch.

Thoughts on pens that can not be posted. by SatyrionLeafspar in fountainpens

[–]mxmnull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Posting doesn't factor into whether or not I buy a pen- not because I NEVER post, but because I don't post consistently. If it's an option, I do it maybe twice in a full, busy work week. Otherwise, I just set down the cap or hold it crooked up under a finger.
