To the surprise of precisely no one, the racists are out in full force to refute the inclusion of #NegroLeagues statistics in the #MLB cannon.
Not shocking to see them doing it, but it's still disappointing, you know? You're right, racists, Babe Ruth did hit 714 HRs. And Ty Cobb did have a career BA of .366. Those are both amazing numbers.
But they never had to hit off a healthy, in-his-prime Satchel Paige, you know?
(Additionally, I'm thilled to see the Negro Leagues exhibit at the HoF next week. Not looking forward to having to explain the importance and necessity of it to my son, but needs must, you know?)
Imagine not being a #Phillies fan. Imagine how unfun your life would be having to root against Bryce Harper, JT Realmuto, Alec Bohm, Brandon Marsh, Bryson Stott, Ranger Suarez, and Zack Wheeler. Just imagine how miserable an existence that would be.
As a DM it’s always a pleasure when running a mind flayer that gets a crit and nearly rips a player’s brain out of their skull. Yeah it was a raucous D&D night for sure!
@yonkeltron@skyfaller It feels, to me (as someone who understand juuuuust enough of programming to be very dangerous and cause trouble) that it has the potential to be very powerful and very rewarding, but also have a ton of potential to be abused in the hands of a true "power-user", which, frankly, might be a feature and not a bug.
@skyfaller@yonkeltron I can see a player going to cast a spell thinking it's going to have this incredibly powerful effect to harm a villain and it ends up backfiring and only affecting the caster. Or, even better, an astute player who suddenly realizes that all the code for their spells is just wrong - they've been rewritten (or deleted!) and they can't figure out how or why.
Heroes solve problems for local areas, and then become leaders of those they've saved. That's how the stories go!
So when the heroes show up having solved a horrifying problem... The local people might say to each other "They probably want to be in charge now, right? That's how it works?".
And some of them will want to make that happen! And some of them won't! And the ones in charge currently will have especially strong feelings on the matter.
@SoupGod228 I can freely admit that part of people's disdain for him is based on his pay (which isn't his fault) but cripes, for a guy who yaps about not being respected enough, maybe don't suck whenever the team needs you to give them literally anything.
