  • My table’s homebrew rules give single-classed Warlocks extra spell slots equal to their proficiency bonus (and those extra slots only come back on a Long, rather than a Short, rest). Warlocks no longer have to keep begging the rest of the party for multiple naps during the adventuring day, which helps keep the session moving, and it allows the Warlocks to do something other than Eldritch Blast before they get to the obviously-signposted-final-boss-fight.

    It’s just totally fucking stupid that a Warlock gets less magic than an Eldritch Knight or an Arcane Trickster for the effective adventuring day. The theoretical 3-5 encounter adventuring day is also fucking stupid unless you’re playing a DragonBall Z mod, where it’s ok when getting through a single eight-hour period takes two months worth of episodes.



  • I’ve got a friend who’s otherwise a great guy, but his anxiety disorder is just bonkers bad. Climate change is terrifying to him, so he copes by just straight-up refusing to believe that it’s a big deal. It can be solved by planting a bunch of trees, or spraying some kind of plastic particles into the atmosphere to reflect the sunlight (“It’s been tested in Alaska! It works! But the government shut it down!”), or by some as-yet-unrevealed technology that’s just around the corner.

    Also, he’s incredibly, unreasonably mad at Al Gore for making An Inconvenient Truth and will insist that he was wrong about literally everything and should never have opened his mouth.

    I have to make a concerted effort not to argue with him too much, because I’m pretty sure that if I actually convinced him, he’d self-harm out of fear of the future.

    I honestly think he’s just a more extreme, slightly-more-self-aware version of how most conservatives feel about the climate change issue. It’s scary, so it can’t be true.





  • A guy who’s totally not a drug mule and/or totally not wearing a butt plug for kink purposes asked for advice on how to go on some kind of walking expedition that’s totally not a hiking trip with a group of unspecified people for three days without having to take a shit at the totally available bathroom facilities they’d pass along the way. He’s unable to elaborate on anything for reasons that totally have nothing to do with implicating themselves in criminal activities and/or pissing off their Dom/me.
