Thank you for the important work you do. I appreciate you.

Officer Brendan Sullivan? Surely not that Brendan Sullivan?

If so, this was a perfect phone prank, 5/7.

Sweet, I dig it

Oof. Summed up my relationship with D&D in a 4-page comic. I love the game, but at the same time, it’s just too stressful to play anymore.

Help me out, what kind of DnB are you referring to? Google gives me a lotta different results when I search DnB

What is four-penis wine?

I somewhat wish for d&d and b&d to switch places, so it would read like a Punnett square. There’d be “bed” and “dungeons” on one axis, and “breakfast” and “dragons” on the other axis, and so you see the result you get when they cross.

But I know that would’ve spoiled the comedic flow.

yaaay

Yes Brave Sir Robin turned about and gallantly he chickened out. Bravely taking to his feet, he beat a very brave retreat. Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!

The rules state that you either die or fall unconscious when you have 0 hit points. The definition of “unconscious” in Appendix A specifies that you are incapacitated AND can’t move or speak AND are unaware of your surroundings.

EDIT: Maybe I shouldn’t assume you’re talking about 5e. I have no idea about 5.5e or any other edition

Ugh this is gut-wrenching. Thank you for sharing. Those poor creatures…

Lol @ the prices written on the spine of the book, in the upper left corner

OH MY GOD I REMEMBER THIS ONE.

I remember going back and following literally every single possible story path and never making it to the planet Ultima. And then going through page-by-page until I actually found it.

That’s wild, this must have been about 20 years ago. Thanks for reminding me of a childhood memory.

The guy had a knife, which might have injured one of the cops, maybe. … they think there might be the slightest minor chance that they could be in a little bit of danger.

I don’t disagree with your overall sentiment that police need better de-escalation training and non-lethal defense weapons - but you need to seriously re-examine your perception of how dangerous a knife attack is. Please don’t trivialize it just to make a point, because it undermines your own credibility and weakens your otherwise reasonable argument.

Yeah I was really frustrated that she wouldn’t answer the damn questions

No. At least not in this community. If you follow multiple news communities on Lemmy then you’re going to get some overlap, of course.

This may be true for married couples who started dating when they were teenagers. Since you brought it up, I’d be curious to see what proportion of the couples in the study fall into that category. I have a hunch that it’s a pretty small percentage, though.

While it’s true that there is some stigma against (e.g.) a college freshman or sophomore dating someone who’s still in high school, I don’t think many people in their right mind would object to a 2-, 3- or even 4-year age gap once both partners are at least 20.

EDIT to add: I don’t think 17-year-olds being afraid to date 15-year-olds even registers on the top ten reasons “why people are increasingly lonely.” Your take comes across as very high school-centric.

"And to be a man and then vote for a woman just because she’s a woman is either childish — that person has mommy issues — or they are just trying to be accepted by other women,” Watters said. “I heard the scientists say the other day that when a man votes for a woman, he actually transitions into a woman.”

Should Ruben vet the entire Lemmyverse while he’s at it so he can “dictate what appears in his product?”

As a solo developer with limited resources, one has four choices:

• Choose an existing ad network and do the best you can within its content preferences,

• Put a paywall on your app’s features and hope enough people will actually buy it,

• Work for free, sacrificing your own livelihood, or

• Don’t develop the app.

Clearly they all involve a compromise of one form or another, and I trust that Ruben put a lot of thought into the decision.
