I’m not making fun of you I just thought it was a funny word :) Also, sorry about your butt.

The DM gave him an OP magic item to compensate for his crappy build

Your worn items just kind of morph into your body when you wildshape. You don’t have to strip naked to go from humanoid to animal, for instance.

Magic is rare in most settings.

RAW that wouldn’t do anything though.

I don’t really go on other networks, is there drama about .ml?

Depending on your field, your business may already have a cybersecurity department. There’s an endless parade of thankless grunt work to be done like patching (often after hours), following up with users whose machines didn’t patch for whatever reason, and so on. (With your manager’s permission) you may be able to reach out to them and volunteer to help with some of those tasks, as a way to dip a toe into that world and start learning.

Yeah to be clear, I do not recommend my method and I don’t think it’s a good allocation of mental resources. I’m just stubborn :P

The prospect of putting all my passwords in one big juicy target has always made me nervous. I go to great lengths to just memorize everything, but damn if it doesn’t take a toll.

Please tell me you have backups of that flash drive

Pretty terrible movie, all things considered, but it does have a very satisfying ending.

Could you elaborate? How do their healing systems work? What makes them good?

Do you have a system you like where healing is a good idea? I’m a 3.5 native so I’m kind of used to the philosophy of “the best healing is killing them before you take damage.” But I’m interested in systems design in general and if there’s a particularly good example of doing it better I’d love to learn about it.

Really? I actually think it’s one of the strengths of 5e. In 3.5 you just have negative hitpoints down to -10, and that doesn’t scale with level or anything so it’s barely relevant after the first few levels. And it’s nice to not be just DRT when you get downed in combat.

You slightly moved the goalposts there. The assertion is not “Everything is making a political statement” it’s “Everything is political.” Your ikea glass reflects your social class, the international relations between where you are and where it was made. It may have been made by an oppressed person in some third world shithole (or even sweden!) It may even be a political statement, like a designer somewhere made it curvy because he thinks people are more likely to buy something with a “feminine” silhouette.

“Selectively simulationist” is a great way to put it. I think everyone falls victim to that from time to time and I’m definitely stealing your turn of phrase.

Specialization is good, because when everybody in the party is good at one narrow field we all get to take turns doing cool things. If you make a character that’s good at everything, nobody else gets to do anything.
