Are there marks left behind on the floor from the fire and dead animal? Yeah? So, you're telling me this 30x30 foot stone room with a flame trap has never been set off before? My familiar is the first creature to die in there? Whoever built it never tested it? Because burn marks on surfaces would have been something special about the room... Now, give me back my familiar and DM better.

Describing things well, putting some thought into world building and just thinking through responses to player questions doesn't hurt either.

Also, exactly which part of questioning the DM twice and sending a familiar in first was reckless in this scenario?

And don't even tell me 'maybe they scrubbed the room after each time.' Have you ever seen a pizza stone?

It's tidally locked to earth. Earth isn't tidally locked to it. Happens slowly due to gravity and differential mass. Relatively stable satellites end up tidally locked given the time. Pretty sure lack of water/liquids/atmosphere hastens the process.

Wow.... So, Kevin gets done so dirty he doesn't even make the photo, and Stanley is the alien security guard....
TOBY!!!

Remember when people who employed fascist rhetoric, incited riots at Capitols, tried to destroy democracy and kill a sitting Vice President were considered terrorists by everyone and weren't to be negotiated with?
Pepperidge Farms does.

Turns out they were all name_NULL's children killing each other. On a long enough timeline, provided progeny survive, it's inevitable.

Here's the guy the US is swapping:

His bio reads like a double agent. Both sides seem happy to keep him in play.

And, they act like stadiums are going to"drive economic" activity instead of creating dead zones in cities.
You know what would guarantee increased economic activity?
People being able to easily get to jobs and shops.

Even then, only in a shortsighted, politically deceptive manner. Taxation driven by sales in a thriving hub with free transit also pads the budget. But, taxes are unpopular and people like sports teams and arena shows and overpriced shitty beverages. They give the bigger dopamine hit.

A few of the best books I've read I just didn't finish because I didn't want that closure on the story.
Plenty of bad books. Didn't finish those either. But, they'd usually get put down sooner and not really thought about, later.

Look up how to quickly disconnect the batteries before you go hunting, so you can do that before you get them home.

How are they supposed to make the unimaginably big number go up ever faster if they're not taking all they can from everyone at once?
It's an optimization problem. Their fiduciary responsibility and raison d'etre is to solve it.

Average forefinger and thumb grasps about 1-1.5 servings of spaghetti. Pasta in general, any shape, 1 pound serves 4-6.

"Pro-life" is the biggest lie ever. They're death cultists who just want more blood to spill for their imaginary blood god.

Honestly, i've always approached this question the reverse of how it's posed here. Pretty much every store brand whatever is just fine.
But, picking a few fancier versions of things as exceptions is nice sometimes.

Lately for me, Kingdom aged organic cheddar and Kerrygold butter have been my indulgences. I don't eat much dairy, so they last me a long time. They're loaded with flavor. And, it's just nice to have a few things that feel special.

My kids won't have this problem. Given the circumstances that have been obvious for 40-50 years I made the best and most responsible parenting decision possible. I didn't have any.

Good. Humans are a trash fire and I wish them all that they deserve. I no longer consider myself part of their species. They're not fit to breed with.

@Tavarin said: Sorry, but you’re still human. Enjoy the crap with the rest of us.

^ Exhibit A: Humans love to explain away and invalidate the sexual choices of members of their social groups. Just one way in which they are terrible with far too great of frequency.

Wikipedia defines species thusly: "A species (pl. species) is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction."

I have rejected requests to procreate with several partners (including one who became my spouse given those conditions) and had my ability to reproduce sexually removed surgically. I can no longer produce fertile offspring with other humans. But, you probably just enjoy telling people their choices are invalid and that they don't/shouldn't have agency over their own bodies....
Bye.

Forcibly for others is obviously unacceptable and has nothing to do with anything I said. I was talking about voluntarily disassociating myself from a violent and catastrophic species. You're deranged to suggest my words contained any other insinuation.

While they're both horrible and there's no good way to compare atrocities, I never expected to even briefly think the words: "At least the Nazis killed their victims first." Yet, here we are.
This shit is way outta hand.

The people at the top don't want the people under them competing with them for bribes. They want to make sure all gifts come directly to them.
