I donated $9.25 to the Imagination Library, and I encourage all who can to do the same. The charity estimates that can buy 3 to 4 books and just a few donating the same amount will add up quickly.

Imagine being such a fucking child that you pick a fight with a close ally and then, because you can't win, you rename a lake in spite. Where are the people who complained about history when statues of losers I mean Confederates were torn down at here? The name is far older than the CSA

In case you're wondering: Cullen voiced Mario in a barely remember early 80s cartoon anthology "Saturday Supercade" in the Donkey Kong shorts. Funnily enough, the voice wasn't Italian at all. He just sounded like a normal guy. The voice we all associate with Mario was purely Charles Martinet.

Why in the fuck is the pedophile in the White House trying to instigate a trade war with our closest (literally and figuratively) ally, but won't order sanctions on China or Russia for supplying Iran? Hmm. I wonder.

Fuck aioli. Yes, I know technically it's not the same but we all know if a restaurant claims something is an aioli it's just another shitty mayonnaise based sauce that they want to sound better than just "flavored mayo." And no, your "secret sauce" isn't special. It's the same as everyone else's.

The sheer fact that there's so many ways to debloat Android devices is sad. There shouldn't be a need to remove stupid bloatware from any device, but man is Samsung bad about it. I just want my Galaxy tab to be an Android tablet.

I am *not* saying that fan dislike of 4E didn't play a part but Paizo made their name making 3rd party content for DnD and the license terms hurt them so they did their own thing. The popularity of 4E inspired games like Lancer, Draw Steel and yes, PF2e, show it's a system with a lot to offer.

One of the #TTRPG takes I hate the most is that the original Pathfinder only existed because people thought DnD4e sucked. It's not. The main reason Paizo did that was that Wizards of the Co$t refused to use OGL and screwed over tons of 3rd parties who made 3x stuff. For example, Paizo.

After running one session of Delian Tomb my view of Draw Steel is simply it's one of the best games I've ran. Between this and PF2e I have my heroic fantasy game needs covered and then some.
