Almost all of the military personnel are from the South

But if a national divorce comes to be, it will be red/blue, not North/South. Which will mean Dems will only control certain large population centers

Plus you would be completely separated from half your forces. Virtually everything between the 2 coasts is deeeeeeeeeep red, also adding Alaska.

Virtually all oil, natural gas, and coal comes from deep red states. Good luck running tanks and planes on Solar.

Not to mention, gun ownership.

It is a DnD party... The bard and the wizard are not going to be tanks. The druid, the barbarian, and the paladin are.

yeah, I understand people getting mad about it but from a D&D perspective it makes perfect sense. Women and Men have the exact same attributes in DnD. There is no bonus to making your tank a male vs a female. They have the same strength and hit points.

They didn't say filling class roles or tanking.

They said they "intentionally emasculated" the men, to feature the women.

Instead of making the women ALSO strong, they consciously decided to intentionally emasculate the men in the service of the female characters.

Pine had to be reminded that he had to look sort of heroic sometimes, instead of a bumbling submissive.

to be fair, most of the current girls into video games and D&D are also showing their boobs on OnlyFans.




Not the ones I play with, so I don’t know what to tell you.

Remember that time when I posted a legitimate comment about the garbage that is today's Hollywood, and instead of forming an intelligent, coherent response, you instead posted a completely unrelated shot from SouthPark as some sort of 'massive' own?

Yeah, that was awesome.


Stay in the shallow end. The water is clearly too deep for you.

I did as well, but if you poke around for some of the recent changes Wizards of the Coast has made to the system/canon, I don't think you'd be pleased.

Does the Drizzt character, for example, even have any meaning, if you just declare Drow aren't mostly evil? There are any examples of this, I think starting around 3.5, but it just soured me on caring. I'll just read more Warhammer 40K, which is the antithesis of nearly everything WoTC has been doing over the past years.

I have two teenagers in sports. I have 0 time for such frivolity.

Not knocking it. Just the life I have.

I saw that Henry Cavill has moved on to this after his Witcher departure. My understanding was that the Witcher showrunners kept deviating too far from source material in the name of “woke” so he couldn’t stay on board.

I don’t know much about warhammer but I heard it’s pretty devoid of the modern mind virus.
