Screaming Females’ cover of Taylor Swift’s Shake It Off it a much better, actually rebellious version, but the best cover will always be Reggie Watts’ version of Paradise City by Van Halen.

Miniature painting: True metallic Vs non metallic metal.

Should you paint the metal parts of your minis in metallic paint (containing small amounts of pica and/or aluminium to give it a reflective shimmer), or is it better to use non metallic paints and paint the shimmer and reflections to give the illusion of being metallic?

Personally I prefer TMM, because it’s basically the same techniques but if you fuck it up a bit it doesn’t end up looking terrible like NMM, and while NMM looks great in photos I find TMM looks better in real life, which is where I enjoy my minis. NMM definitely requires more skill, but I don’t think the results are worth it unless you’re entering competitions.

This is less a misconception and more a lie told to teens to get them to shave their horrible little pube faces.

See? You have nothing but insults, no analysis of your definition, no source, no answers to the simplest of questions about it. Of course carrots are vegetables, but admitting that would make you wrong, so instead you project your failings onto me.

Playing under someone more experienced can build confidence, but the only way to learn how to run a ttrpg is to start running one. Find some one page RPGs with really simple rules that can be learnt in a few minutes and played over an hour or two. No one has to invest in anything, you can switch between different ones to find what people like, and there’s no pressure to keep running a campaign if you find it too much. Once you have an idea of what it’s like running a game you and your friends can decide if you want to play a long adventure.

PF2e does a surprisingly good job at both unequaling the odds with it’s degrees of success mechanic and making class and level a much more flexible system through feats, but probably not to the degree you’re wanting, and I can’t argue with the rest.
Delta Green isn’t a perfect fit for your requirements as it uses a single die, but it’s degrees of success system also unequals the odds, so it might still work for you. VtM and it’s relatives are probably a better fit, but I personally find them a bit melodramatic. I’ve found it pretty easy to find a VtM group by hanging around Goths, but haven’t had any luck with Delta Green yet.

Depending on what you’re parts of D&D you’re sick of Pathfinder 2e can be refreshing and relatively easy to find groups for, otherwise I’ve found if you want to play something else you probably have to run it yourself.

You’re not being abused you absolute melt, you’re the one resorting to insults when I point out your logical inconsistency. All I’m doing is applying your definition to the real world and asking if you agree with the conclusions - seeing as you’ve avoided confirming or denying a single one, the obvious answer is that you don’t and are just trying to deflect. If you don’t think your definition is accurate, why would anyone else?

Hey, I keep answering your questions, I’m just asking perfectly reasonable questions that poke holes in your definition (that’s definitely real and not made up because you claim to have found it in the vast world of “online”) that you’re refusing to answer because you know it doesn’t actually work. Now, are you claiming root vegetables are fruits or do you recognise how ridiculous your definition is?

I’m not having a hard time, I’m interrogating your fake definition, so answer my questions: are peas a fruit or a vegetable? Are root vegetables fruits or vegetables? On the flip side, what about sour fruits like limes or blackberries? Are they vegetables?

Wait I got a better one: if carrots and sweet potatoes aren’t vegetables why are they called root vegetables?

Well no, you’re switching between multiple definitions, none of which have ever been used culinarily, but more importantly, can you not name a vegetable? Are beans a vegetable?

Hold on, it didn’t need to be a berry/fruit earlier, does that mean carrots and sweet potatoes are vegetables after all?

You know what, let’s try this the other way around: could you name specific examples of things you consider vegetables? Because we’ve named quite a lot now and you don’t seem to consider any of them vegetables.

Ok, so what about peas? Or cabbage? Artichokes? What’s the specific cut off for being too sweet to be a vegetable?

You can’t stop me being late, I run the game. I have an entire channel in the group chat solely dedicated to my excuses for being late. They always suck. I’ve turned up on time to maybe half a dozen sessions in the last 6 years. If I turn up within 20 minutes of the starting time my players don’t even count it as late anymore.

It completely invalidates their claims - their spirit has been completely crushed and subsumed, to the point their words could be spoken by a serf or slave defending their systems. They are projecting their own perceived weakness onto others and telling themselves they’re actually strong for breaking.

Its not even intended to stand in, the devs literally just chose it because Mali was giving away domains for free at the time.

Most normal people just realize that all systems are imperfect and sometimes you take an L and continue

I almost fell into these pits myself several times because being owned by a system that doesn’t give you sufficient tooling or voice to feedback on does feel really terrible

My great aunt in yhwh’s wrath, you have been traumatised. How do you not recognise your behaviour as a trauma response?

One of my close friends came out as gay to me in highschool and I said “I know? Everyone knows. Well, everyone except you, apparently.” and nothing changed between us. I don’t advise the first part of it, even if everyone did know, but the second applies - start using their new pronouns and otherwise continue on as normal. That’s all they want, for their gender to be respected and to not be treated as different or strange for it.
