Look for wassailing music. It’s old caroling music that tends german, and can be a nice change of pace.

at this point I’m just proud we did something that doesn’t appear to worsen global warming.

Oh yeah, I need to buy those solar panels before Jan 20, thank you for reminding me.

I’ve noticed my passions aren’t as sudden, but they burn deeper and longer.

Security guards don’t hang out with the CEO, although I am now enjoying the idea of a C-Suite executive retreat for sniper training.

“Julie, you’re INTJ… why don’t you snap off a few rounds and see if that makes you feel more outgoing.”

I wrote it. So…. It’s from here.

 

(Wilmington, Delaware) - After a hard two weeks of soul-searching, American Healthcare Executives say they have learned from recent events, and they’re ready to make changes.

“This is horrible,” said one executive who asked not to be named. “Not only was a man killed in the streets - a father - but the reaction of many people was excitement and jokes about his death.” This sounds a common sentiment among healthcare executives in American following the recent shooting: they are ready to make a change.

“We are already rolling out new policies, to respond to some of the concerns we are hearing in this national conversation,” wrote another executive in an email who wishes to go unnamed. “We are changing how we look at healthcare, and we are excited to reduce the amount of evil we bring to the world by three… and sometimes up to six percent… in order to no longer be shot in the streets like dogs.”

Policy changes will begin immediately. “In some cases, we used to deny cancer treatment for a mother of six over a certain cost threshold,” said an anonymous claims adjuster. “That has totally ended. In most cases now we will only deny a mother of three, or four if they seem like a pushover, and in most cases even then we will start treatment if they’re persistent, within 3 years.”

“Of course the father is still toast,” she added.

Changes like these are not going over well on Wall Street, where earnings numbers play a large part in the value of health stocks. Numbers were mixed as traders sought to determine how less evil might impact their portfolios.

But some in the industry are concerned what turning over a new leaf could mean in the longer turn. “Mike,” a security consultant who did now want to give his last name, worries if Americans will see through what experts call ‘just enough pandering to not be insulting,’ and the effect it will have on his career. “I just got a $30,000 raise, and a $10,000 bonus. The CEO looked me in the eye and shook my hand, and his wife took all our wives for spa treatments. I’m getting sniper rifle training, we all are.”

“If that fear goes away, what happens to the benefits I receive from other people being denied them? I know I’m not the boss here, but I am important, and I would hope they remember not to treat their security staff like they would a customer.”

I’d like to start this post with a list of caveats. I’m not a femboy, or a furry. I’m not fighting in the Ukraine war. And the picture with the blue striped socks, kinda slaps. That being said, let’s get into the post.

I can see how furry and femboy culture would be detrimental to the russian invasion of Ukraine. Russian society tends to be against this culture… failing to recognize that with a furry, it’s full go all the time… these blokes haven’t seen an aderal prescription since putting on a fur suit. Failing to take advantage of the quick, hyper movements of furries, and their practice running on all four’s, is an asset the russian military would be wise to deploy in war. Whether they will… remains to be seen.

Assuming we’re thinking of the same place, you have to deal with a large group of people who have been fooled, and are about to get very angry and need a target they can reach for their anger. Highlighting mid to high level members of their party leadership as the people to blame allows them to hold their great leader blameless, protecting their egos, while at the same time ripping down the pillars that prop up that same leader. Calling for new blood to support… whatever leader you’re talking about, and voting out “those idiots that aren’t giving him what he needs and so we all are suffering” allows the malleable followers to self destruct the party apparatus like ants eating away the bones of an elephant.

Man, even the flooring is getting laid in that place.

I personally like the theory that they caught him using five eyes data, and skip the step where they write “US citizen” in the transcripts

“ let’s get you a scrum-rifle and see what you can do to improve your stats.”

on a more credible note, I’ve taken to checking ISW every day for a good Ukraine recap

Edit: I apologize for the credible comment. Posted from Saddam’s spider hole.

 

I was thinking about crazy optimizations today and I’m surprised we don’t hear more people talk about this combo. A cleric that can cast lvl 3 spells can concentrate on spirit guardians and wild shape, and by becoming a large creature you can create a 40 ft field of fast moving justice taking the dodge action - that include spider forms, which allows ceiling walking to create the disco ball of death moving around a room out of melee reach.

I’m surprised I’ve never seen this build being abused.

 
 

I play with a group where we love to help out the DM with adventures; this is a batch of dragonoids I’m printing for our combats in a 5e Dragonlance campaign.

I print them, another player paints them, we all benefit from adding to the realism with 3D models. As a DM I love it when players help add to the realism of the game, and our DM trusts us not to push too much but to help if asked.

Just wanted to throw out this slice of gaming life in case it sparks ideas for anyone. Printing minis, building terrain, helping with play lists.. this can all help make the DM job easier and make a better game experience for everyone.

Or buy pizza. No one minds if you buy pizza.
