Wouldn’t be the first time a government banned a number

Like sysiphus, we must continue pushing up the hill, forever. There is no final victory. If you’re tired, trust in others to continue pushing, very understandable. Just don’t piss on the people continuing where you left off.

That was for tabling the vote, actual vote is happening on the 14th of October

In an episode of Enterprise there was a Klingon lawyer who talked about the honor of law and finding the truth. I’m sure you could definitely have a respected Klingon scientist character and still make it sound Klingony with the right motivation. “To best the mysteries of nature and discover the true nature of reality is an honorable calling” or something like that.

I like having a spare because I can quickly change the sheet whenever, throw the dirty one into the laundry machine, and deal with it tomorrow. I don’t have to start the wash/dry cycle in the morning, I can do it whenever I feel like it. It facilitates my laziness.

I adored the presequel, did so many interesting things. The verticality, stomp attacks and oxygen masks were awesome. Also the low grav meant the maps could be way more varied and interesting.

Waited for the reviews for the third (never pre-order, always wait for reviews!) and it just seemed so… mid. Definitely happy I dropped out of that franchise when I did.

No. The UK is a democratic monarchy, and they are in fact not very stable right now.

Eh, DnD morality is just fundamentally broken at a conceptual level, and people have known that since forever. Every GM basically overlays their own opinions on what good/evil/lawful/chaotic mean, and there’s no consistency from table to table.

Are you sure about that?

It’s the law of large numbers. There were a lot of people in that crowd, and a lot of cameras. People make weird movement and have weird tics all the time. It’s statistically impossible for there to not be at least a few people who made some strange move right then and there.

Not completely true. There are ~4 checks that can result in a soft lock if you fail it enough times. My first game ended (SPOILERS) here because I was running a low intelligence build (I had 1 the first time I tried), and then I levelled up and retried 4 more times, completing every side quest I could find. Once I failed it the 4th time with 5 logic, that was it. No longer possible to progress at all.

There are no “good guys” or “bad guys” in geopolitics, just shades of grey. On quite a few topics, the EU is better, but any government is capable of doing stupid shit.

Aaargh! Grug make mouth-noise, and now da air is all wobbly. Eerz hert from da wibble wobble air, it wobble too fast!

Yeah, that’s exactly where I got that first rhyme from :))

Not true of the first one.

I’m no economist, but isn’t the stock market more an indicator of what the wealthy think will happen in the near future?

The A is a bit more open than in English, kinda like the A in father, but otherwise no.

There once was a man from Orange

Who had a very squeaky door hinge

He poured on some oil,

It started to boil,

And made the nastiest porridge

Very normal in Romania at least (miau). Not as weird as what we write for dog barks (ham).

“Good news Harold! Your older brother has decided to join the priesthood. Yes, it was of his own accord… well, maybe he needed a little convincing…”
