No no.

they’re for going through the “does your dick work” questions in the emails so we don’t have to.

Their sacrifice is appreciated.

Anyone else screaming “oh god! don’t twist! don’t twist!” ?

We still do. It’s a fun trick.

Don’t worry, the voidling is taking care of the hostile mousey.

Somehow, I don’t want to know.

These questions are why we invented investigative journalists.

blurry kittens? I only see one tired mum.

which, yeah, I don’t disagree with that. The problem is that they’re actively working against their own interests. Blatantly so. They don’t want to take programs that would give them financial security (or all the other forms of security that would give, like stable housing, access to good and healthy food, a good education, etc.).

Some of it is that they’re primed to do that. But a lot of it is, they’re lashing out. They don’t want to feel safe, as an example, because then that removes their excuse for lashing out at people they want to harass and torture.

to be honest, at this point, I’m pretty sure the RWNJ’s don’t actually want to feel safe.

But yeah, the appropriate solution is to keep everybody safe, and educate the RWNJ’s. Though, if you were able to actually convince them of the truth, they’d probably run off to disenfranchise the next group.

it rather depends on the atom and how you go about doing it- and also, what the atom is surrounded by. if it were split in such a way that neutrons were released into other neutrons, generating a cascade reaction… then… yes. That’s kinda how a nuke works.

But in general? probably not.

Being safe outweighs feeling safe, so this whole analogy is void.

WOW… you managed to get my point and still miss it. Impressive.

It’s a nice buzzword for Vulcans to justify some horrible shit using logic, but if you go deeper than a StarTrekism buzzword, then it doesn’t really make much sense.

For example, Trans rights. Trans need to be safe. RWNJ’s need to feel safe, and out number them. Who wins?

in the real world, everybody wins when Trans people’s rights are protected and everybody- especially the most vulnerable- are kept safe. Including the RWNJ’s.

Shutters? Those’ll do it.

It can slow things down, but once the light hits the curtain, the energy has gotten in, where it might dissipate slower, but it is still going to dissipate into the rest of the space.

Reflective curtains can do wonders, bouncing most of the light back out, mind. The advantage of reflective tint, though is that some of the absorbed light heats the window itself and passes that heat back out.

window binds still let the light into the house where the energy then turns to heat.

Heat-reducing window-tint on the other hand is pretty easy to install.

honestly, on the outside, the yoghurt probably isn’t a particularly durable layer (i.e. going away after the first rain,) and probably gets to smelling funky. On the inside, it’s probably going to also smell funky.

There was that time when someone broke his knuckles and wired his jaw shut so he couldn’t talk or tweet.

Wait. That’s just a fantasy I have.

how’s she feel about cats?

or maybe she’s more into doggos?

there’s also the 15 minute dnd set, which are a few oneshots in 15 minutes; more of your ‘normal’ dnd. has he advantage of being broken up.

You’re looking for a oneshot. (a dnd campaing meant to be short and completed in a single session.) The joy of oneshots is that your players are usually not particularly attached to the characters, so a TPK won’t necessarily piss everyone off, and you can ramp the difficulty some.

plenty of sources for free (and not free,) oneshots in a variety of the usual places.

DMsGuild has plenty that are free, or ‘pay what you want’ as a tip, if you feel so inclined.

life, uh, finds a way.

when a silver loaf and gold loaf love each other very much, do they make a whole lot of electrum loaves?

dad’s have perfected the anti-joke. I’m merely an uncle, though, so I struggle through it.
