When I was looking at a questionnaire about ADHD I showed out to my wife saying something like “man, they’re really gearing these questions to diagnose everyone with ADHD, aren’t they?” She read through the list and then, with the saddest expression I’ve ever seen on her face, looked at me and asked “you mean you’ve been struggling with all of this?”

Getting diagnosed was a formality after that.

I wonder about this though because cars are “fragile” due to being designed to protect the humans inside. I would think that the sentient cars would have evolved differently to be more protective of themselves.

I dunno, I feel like people have been saying this kind of thing since Age of Ultron.

Nah, that’s what CATS named all of us

For real. The concept of becoming a master over a wand is world breaking in retrospect. Ron talks about using a hand-me-down wand in the first book, which basically means he was hampered from the beginning by not having a wand that recognized him as its master. And all the wand disarming Harry did means he should have approximately 37 wands that prefer him over their owners.

This is honestly the biggest reason. I’ve gotten in so many debates and arguments online and it only ends with me having wasted my time and being less happy. This is even the case when the person has seemed reasonable at first but it always devolves from there.

One of the greatest problems, IMO, is that there’s little incentive for people to leave good reviews of their company. I’m relatively happy at my job, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to go info a website to say why I like working for them. Sure, some people will, but you go onto these types of websites either cuz you wanna complain or because HR is going around with donuts offering one to everyone who leaves a review.

DM: sorry that your character died, do you have a backup in mind?

Me: should I do my “three halflings in a trench coat”? Or maybe the battle master artificer that dual wields lances? We could always use another spellcaster, so I could do the dragon born wizard that’s pretending he’s a draconic sorcerer. But I really like doing melee in combat, maybe the build I based off the song “16 tons”…

I once had a roommate from Chile and he asked what the difference in pronunciation was for “juice” versus “Jews”. I’m still not sure I properly got the difference across…

Also the difference between “to rob” and “to steal” was an interesting thing to think through and then explain.

100% agree. You mean I’m gonna have to listen to Brother Lampard ramble on about his experience living in Guatemala for the rest of eternity? I’ll be searching out the fire and brimstone out before the end of the first week.

Swears are a sledge hammer. Many tasks don’t require a sledgehammer. But sometimes you need a sledgehammer.

I’m not even into magic and I’m offended

And, depending on where in the world they go, they may have to walk a lot to talk to people about the walk.

Since they don’t appear to be on Hoopla your best bet might be trying an Inter-library loan for the “Marvel Masterworks: Golden Age Captain America” books. This page should have all the information you would need for the request, though check with your library for the specific method https://www.marvel.com/comics/collection/39345/marvel_masterworks_golden_age_captain_america_vol_1_trade_paperback

As a heads up, Marvel has only reprinted issues 1-20 and 76-78 of the original “Captain America Comics” series. You specifically mentioned Jack Kirby in your post, so if you’re only interested in stuff he worked on you’re fine, as he only did issues 1-10 and then left Timely until he returned in the late 50s or early 60s. But if you’re interested in the entirety of the Golden Age stories then the only way currently to read pages 21-75 are to purchase physical versions (which is impossible for most people) or pirate them.

Thanks for this! I’ve been trying to be better at just this sort of things at my tables, so your videos are coming at the perfect time.

But you are trying to maximize fun, so if these types of skills help you increase the fun at your table then it’s good to implement, regardless of whether or not it’s usually viewed as a “workplace skill”.

I’m intrigued, what kinds of things?

Not only am I going to pick it up, I’m gonna try and eat it

That’s fair. I haven’t watched the show so I wasn’t sure what it entailed.

I’ll check those out. Thanks!
