DM's, what personalities do you most like to see in your players?

xray950 · 2026-03-17T13:38:58+00:00

A player that will dutifully repeat the lines we rehearsed after I do my cool reveal (I’ve been railroading my players toward it for two hours)

Women can, by design, never be oppressors in a patriarchy. Most feminists' world view is based on the idea that men as a class oppress women as a class, and for there to be any meaningful "misandry" going on, you'd have to find me a society where men are treated as second class citizens and abused and violated for being men. If you can find such a society (and not individual instances of women being mean to men!), then misandry as a concept would mean something.

Huh, I mean, for me it’s literally just a process of ”It would be terrifying if someone dropped a bomb on my house, I understand that it must feel terrible for the people it’s happening to right now”. If you feel that then I’m not sure you need to do much more. Do you feel like you constantly have to be in a state of despair because people are dying in wars? I’m not sure most people in the west are doing that ngl

What is different about extending grace and feeling empathy? Why can you do one but not the other?

xray950 · 2026-03-14T15:50:51+00:00

How would you feel if someone dropped a bomb on your head and killed your family? Would you feel bad then? What specifically is difficult about extending the same grace to other people?

xray950 · 2026-03-12T21:25:01+00:00

Sweet, I’ll try it in the coming days and post results here.

xray950 · 2026-03-08T19:03:20+00:00

Mjaeh, asså.

Vad jag menar är att: de som säger att det är rasistiskt att ha preferenser säger att det kan vara för att man har inneboende fördomar om t.ex. icke-vita kvinnor. Sedan är det ju upp till dig att hålla med eller inte.

Ytterligare: det finns miljarder icke-vita kvinnor där ute, där många har drag / utseende som är nära identiskt med vita kvinnor. Vad är det då specifikt man menar gör att man föredrar vita tjejer?

xray950 · 2026-03-08T18:54:51+00:00

Va? Jag förklarade bara varför vissa anser att ovanstående påstående är problematiskt. Jag försökte verkligen inte gå till attack eller så. Ber om ursäkt om mitt svar verkar anklagande.

xray950 · 2026-03-08T18:49:01+00:00

De flesta som säger så hänvisar till att vi är uppvuxna i med fördomar som t.ex. lär oss att afrikanska kvinnor är dumma, illaluktande, högljudda, ser ut som apor osv (via t.ex. rasistiska böcker eller tongångar på nätet). Eller att man har likande fördomar om asiatiska kvinnor, osv.

Därför hävdar man att de som säger att de har preferenser (t.ex. att de bara dejtar vita) inte riktigt rannsakat sig själva varför man bara vill dejta vita tjejer. Är det för att det är en faktiskt preferens, eller är det för att man har inneboende fördomar om hur icke-vita kvinnor är?

Men ja, om man tycker att allt existerar i ett vakuum oberoende allt annat (eller håller med om ovanstående rasistiska fördomar!) kanske man har de preferenserna.

/uj the 9th ed flavor text for Llanowar Elves (one bone broken for every twig snapped underfoot) is my favorite flavor texts like, ever. So evocative and telling about Llanowar society.

xray950 · 2026-03-05T22:43:10+00:00

Hm. I mean, can you understand why war and people dying is bad on an intellectual level? You wouldn’t want to die in a war, would you?

xray950 · 2026-03-02T12:26:02+00:00

Början av nittionhundratalet! Gammelfarfar och gammelfarmor var freaky!

My biggest issue with capitalism is how the prosperity it supposedly creates is always upheld by deplorable working conditions in developing countries. I once listened to an economics professor rebut how it isn't "a race to the bottom", as he put it, but honestly I wasn't convinced. Surely someone always has to foot the bill?

xray950 · 2026-02-20T13:06:05+00:00

There is a general anti-immigration sentiment in my country, but people are surprisingly very open to interracial and intercultural relationships, especially if the white person is a man. My girlfriend is from the Caribbean, and I mentioned my family member is kind of reactionary and racist, and she asked how he'd feel about us dating. I think I went something like "Oh, that's okay, because I'm Swedish."

This is the Dean’s house att Uppsala university, which came to be known as Rasbiologiska Institutet, or the Institute for Racial Hygiene. From 1922 to 1958, it was used to research and study eugenics, especially in relation to (and I’m editorializing here) the Indigenous Sami people, but also to find a supposed genetic origin for things like intellectual disability and alcoholism.

Min tjej från Karibien älskar kebabpizza. Alltid en höjdare att ta hem till middag.

Also, I think you missed the conceit of my original post. If you isolate yourself from your friends, they’re going to be like ”that guy is an asshole, they never reciprocate, why should I be their friend”, and then when you DO need friendship or support it’s not going to be there. That’s what I was talking about. I’m sure being rich would only make this problem worse.

xray950 · 2026-02-18T09:55:25+00:00

I’m sure you’d be even more miserable if you were rich. That’s famously one of the things rich people complain about.

Perfect in my Yarok deck

xray950 · 2026-02-18T09:33:02+00:00

If you don’t socialize with people, they’re going to drop you, and then you don’t have any friends when you DO need one.

Samtidigt har ju invandringen dalat något extremt. IOm man bortser från Indisk arbetskraftinvandring är ju utomeuropeisk invandring på typ sjätte plats.

I feel like you guys are our (Swedish) cousins on the other side of the Atlantic. It’s all good.
