makes sense, since we’re on youtube for the ads

well, yes, none of the dnd setting people think like medieval people at all.

but i take exception to this idiocy:

fundamentally incompatible with the European fantasy typified by Lord of the Rings, in which no fellowship can alter the fact that Sam is by birth a servant, Frodo a gentleman, Strider a king, and Gandalf a wizard.

has this person read the lord of the rings? sam becomes a land-owning gentleman at the end of the novel. he actually makes it out of his class.

to be fair, he’s the only one in the entire god damned book. there arent even many speaking roles for named commoners in there. sam, the gaffer, ted sandyman, farmer maggot, butterbur, gamling, ioreth. that’s about it. the vast majority of these are in the shire portions of the book.

edit: i forgot beregond and his son! but he may be a minor noble who has lost their land but kept the memory, or he may be a commoner of ithilien of numenorean descent. i dunno.

yes, that part is for cooking

i assure you, we who grew up with celsius absolutely know the dire difference between 38 and 43. 38 is death, 43 is the crimson realms where even souls wither.

all this “which one is better for x” is nonsense, you develop a feel for whichever you grew up with. it’s just that the math is less stupid with metric. that’s all.

i’m going by hearsay here, i dont know what school is like in the US. i know what a single school was like in about 1998, but that doesnt tell me much about the rest of the country.

but from what i hear, the US has security gates and cops in schools, and the cops regularly brutalize and arrest the kids for random bullshit.

then they’ll put a cop next to each one of them and the cop will shoot the kids who come near it. that’ll fix it.

it happens like that sometimes. see also jimi’s all along the watchtower.

bones are supposed to be wrapped in meat and skin. not poking through! that’s normally the sign of a terrible injury.

no, it’s illegal to eat humans.

no, she’s bang on the money.

your point?

i dont think they’ve lost touch, they’ve never been in touch. this behavior is apparently what produces the biggest profits for the next quarter, so they’ll do it until they drive the platform into the ground, then just start another one and repeat

it’s the logical extension of trying to put the circle block into the square hole as a baby :D

i used to do this as a kid. plop one of these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effervescent_tablet (but with fruit flavoring and sugar) in a glass of water, let it fizz a bit, then pour a bit of milk on top. the milk would instantly curdle and stay on top in a layer. it tasted bad. curdled milk with sugar and artificial lemon flavoring. i usually just poured it out after confirming that it still tastes bad.

i have no idea why i did this, it just looked fun.

they have an odd concept of a fair right though. the cat has teet and claws and can teleport. but if i use a thick towel to wrap the cat, i’m not being fair?!

i guess there was no money for the special-effects firefly in europe…

the ones in american media tend to fly while glowing, no? i’ve only ever seen the quietly sit on a leaf and flash in patterns type.

similar? i’ve never been dive bombed by corvids ever and they’re everywhere in this city :)

i think it’s from a david attenborough documentary
