VTMB2, but actually good.

Kid is screwed.

To be fair, Europe in general has America Derangement Syndrome. Try making a joke about the metric system and they all act like their grandfather personally invented it. I've been thinking up my own version of Godwin's Law: As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a European whining about America approaches one.

Social Security is a poisonous trap. You spend your whole life paying into it via taxes, so you reach retirement age and you expect to get your dues from it. Everyone knows that eventually the system will collapse, but no one wants to be holding the bag when it's their turn, so no one will vote for dramatic change to it. It's genius in a way, if one's eventual goal was the collapse all along.

It's all so tiresome.

AI written post too.

I watch Karl Jobst still, and every time he mentions a female name in regards to speedrunning, I automatically assume tranny, google their twitter handle and I've yet to be proven wrong.

Tranny school shooter in a town called Tumblr Ridge. Can't make that up..

Not many, all the nerdy blacks play Yu-Gi-Oh.

We're really moving those goalposts so you feel less bad about being fooled, huh?

That's 2009, not 2002.

Fake. The DFF watermark is from an account that generates fake images like this called Dumb Fuck Finder, guess he found another one...

Yeah, this does look like a boomer wrote it.

It does this with a lot of stuff in the public domain, its extremely sensitive.

It was pretty silly of X to connect Grok Imagine to it to begin with, but otherwise, this just seems odd. It's not like celebrity fakes and photoshops haven't existed for decades at this point. I guess it's because it's easy and ubiquitous.

Please drink verification can to continue.

Ran through Prey again, forgot how woke it is, hah.

Could it have been they were saying the vague post was the loss meme? Which isn't a black thing.

If on her skin she has a doodle, never ever let her touch your noodle!

I would fundamentally disagree, respectfully. I think restrictions in fact breeds better quality roleplaying. Freedom from my experience tends to result in bland same-y characters with no conflict. Things like stat bonuses and alignment represent genuine points of contention within worlds. Making a half-orc wizard isn't interesting if there is no mechanical reason why that would be unusual. Making a good drow isn't interesting if Good/Evil are just matters of perspective instead of objective forces of reality. The rules fundamentally do matter, because its in some ways the difference in rules between editions that attract different people.

I will agree that good DMs can salvage something from 5e, but the other aspects of 5e is going to be an issue as well. The far less robust character options and progression compared to 3.5e, the general decrease in complexity and power. These too are aspects of the edition that are a conscious push away from the autism of yesteryear and towards the 90 IQ mouth breather.

D&D 5e happened. Critical Role happened. Stranger Things happened.

Yes, it's all gay and lame now. All of the "problematic" aspects of D&D have been gutted or shuttered. Alignment is effectively gone, race is effectively gone.

The theater kids have taken over, D&D is far more about amateur improv than it is wargaming nowadays.

Scrooge.

Can I get a Early Life check on David Azerrad, please?

AI mostly generates slop that theoretically I should disdain, but it makes all of the people I hate frothing mad, so I'm willing to pretend to like it just for that.

To be fair, to his audience he was seen as a very trustworthy person, my mother for instance, heh.
