I'm the same way. I play music solely for fun, by myself. I love playing with others as well, but even in the times in my life when I was lucky enough to be able to do that I still would play music by myself. Common attitudes about music are really toxic imo. Music is at its best when it is free, live, amateur, and enjoyed alone or with close friends, not for an audience with outsized expectations based on the ubiquity of recorded professional music.

A certain wotc module has a level 2 party fight a suicidal enemy with Fireball in a small room. Also the fireball does necrotic damage just to make sure no one can resist it. Went exactly as you'd expect. I haven't read the module myself so not sure if the DM messed something up or what. I thought it was hilarious but the other players all rage quit so that campaign ended there.

Most humans believe in magic in some form (gods, spirits, miracles, astrology, etc) so we don't have to guess how people would respond if they believed reality was irrational. They rationalize it endlessly and try desperately not to look at the parts that make no sense.

Also do not mix bleach and vinegar.

I wish I could go back and experience myself experiencing it, so I could see what aspects of my current self were there all along, what parts I picked up along the way, and exactly how those ideas were planted and grew.

All I remember from that game is some character named Xai or something like that. Xain? That and the world map was cool.

Whom are you parodying? Who says something like that?

If you have any preference at all between the two party nominees then you are not throwing away your vote. You are voting for that preference and your vote counts. If you think cheese pizza is bland and boring but you are allergic to orange spray tanned pepperoni then being the only person voting for pineapple is objectively a worse choice than voting for cheese, because by voting for pineapple you are increasing the chance of having disgusting orange spray tanned pepperoni shoved in your face.

Never-trump republicans, new-age anti-science liberals, and yeah low information voters who just recognize his last name. But I too would guess he would siphon more from trump voters.

Not only do we essentially throw away your vote if you vote for a third party, but states just straight up flip every vote for president that doesn't align with the majority. It boggles my mind that people are seemingly ok with this. I understand that there's a coordination problem where if one party moves to proportional allocation of electoral votes before the other they are giving up power, so it would need to be a coordinated fix.

Overworld theme and Dead Sea tracks are phenomenal.

Are any of these monster books actually good? The fact they don't seem to have sample monsters makes me doubt it.
