I will bang this drum forever: in THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE FREE: THE GERMANS, 1933-45 Milton Mayer interviewed 10 ordinary Germans after WW2 to learn how fascism took hold. There was never a moment when everyone woke up:

if you’re waiting for everyone around you to wake up, you’ll wait forever. this is how the people grinding our bones to make their bread WANT you to be. paralyzed, alienated & purposeless

As an American who doesn't have a real ability to call because I'm living abroad with a Canadian postal code and an Alberta phone area code, I hope folks living in the U.S. can take the time to make these calls.

Okay, first set of call scripts. I know I'm not the only one getting 2016/"But her emails!!!" flashbacks.

As an aside if RPGs want to resemble reality better one thing they need to change is archers should be a strength based class and swordsman should be a dex based class.

also archers and javelin troopers were ripped . we can literally tell who was an english longbow an based on how deformed their shoulders were. it’s like ~110lb of pull strength to fire a longbow some required even more strength

Definitely check your junk/spam folder! That's where I found mine.

in D&D rn: we are in a temple with fonts of water that could be turned into holy water me: so do the fonts have angels on them? I'm curious as to if they're seraph or sans-seraph fonts

A hill I will die on: all white-collar crimes are violent crimes. It's just that the violence is removed from the perpetrator because the perpetrator is wealthy.

Holy. Shit. They're literally saying Trump's felonies aren't that bad compared to the "real felonies". Bear in mind, they're ignoring J6 and "gimme 12000 votes" call and the stolen docs. We joke, but this is literally Newsmax copy.

Nothing is stopping every single Democratic elected official and apparatchik from taking the airwaves every single day to articulately and decisively repeat a set of cogent talking points about Trump (ie 45). Nothing. Dem PACs could be slamming him with ads now. Stop whining and do that.

Remember: Texas is not a red state. Texas is a massively voter-suppressed state, with a lot of people working very hard and very thanklessly to fix that.

Come on, y'all. For America. For Ted. Let's do this.

In my current playthrough I have made my Rook as menacing-looking as possible without villainizing scars or birthmarks. He looks like he solves every problem with grimly wrought violence. Am somewhat concerned that multiple coworkers have told me that he's hot.
