  • Yes.

    You create a magical restraint to hold a creature that you can see within range.

    While imprisoned, the target doesn’t need to breathe, eat, or drink, and it doesn’t age.

    Until the spell ends, the target is also affected by one of the following effects of your choice:

    The secondary effects in the case of immunity to Unconscious just wouldn’t do much but the target is still under a magical restraint.

    Now technically the magical restraint that holds the creature doesn’t mechanically cause any particular condition. So depending on the definition of “held”, this may or may not be a problem.

    However it is worth noting that the spell also says the condition to end the spell must be something the DM agrees to AND is likely to happen in the next decade. So it won’t be a cakewalk to be suddenly immune to aging.





  • Due to this post I just found mine.

    For the longest time I’ve been trying to find a video that featured someone copying a VHS recording over and over again, each time loosing a little bit of quality.

    The specific video featured a catchy song, but I couldn’t remember the song or any of the words. I’ve found a few different videos over the years but every time I found a video the song was wrong.

    Every few years it’s jumped into my head and I’ve gone off looking for it, but could never quite figure it out.

    This time I either put in just the right terms or the magic algorithm has moved it around,

  • So I’ve always felt this way about video games.

    Can you imagine a kids first Mario game being Mario Wonder? That’s a twist on Mario games, it’s not the base Mario!? They won’t understand what makes it an interesting new game!

    But the thing is, it’s fine. Everything new is old. Plus it’s the Internet, it’s impossible to actually sort out everything.

    Like, what is Roblox? I know it’s some online game. Then I saw John Green play Roblox with his daughter. It was a dress up simulator. That’s Roblox?

    Or how about the song Gangnam Style? I remember when that reached 1 billion views on YouTube. That was a moment. But then remember Despacito? When I first heard that song it was already at 1.2 billion views. How could I clearly remember the first billion views video, but completely miss it happening again?

    Think about the entirety of history that happened before you. How did you sort that out?






  • Oh my God.

    I’ve dug into these threads so sooooo many times over the years and I always have to look at suggestion after suggestion after suggestion, hundreds of excellent television shows. Then I reach the end. No one has mentioned Terriers. It is my time to comment.

    But here! Today! Terriers is alive. I’m confident I’ve over hyped it by now but… TERRIERS! A silly name for a television show, but a wonderful story.

    And for those wondering, it’s just one season and whole the whole the ending isn’t what you want, it is one you can accept. Did Terriers deserve a second season? Yes. But did the story come to a point where I can dream of a future? Also yes.




  • Let’s try flying.

    You can fly, but you still have to put in the same amount of effort as if you couldn’t fly.

    For example if you want to fly over a house it would be at the same speed as climbing a ladder and taking an equal amount of time.

    Or if you wanted to fly a mile away it would be the same as running or walking a mile. Also if you want to carry someone or something, how fast could you move while doing it? Same as on the ground or in the air.

    Basically you still get the convenience of flying, but you have to put in all the work.
