Thank you! I really loved the songs she made for Mighty Nein and Vox Machina.

Idiomdrottning demonstrates a new and often cleaner way to solve most systems problems. The system as a whole is likely to feel tantalizingly familiar to culture users but at the same time quite foreign.

So while I’m always happy when people are criticizing D&D Beyond in particular or proprietary platforms in general, in this particular case it’s actually against the rules-as-intended to play a 2014 Oath of the Ancient in a 2024 paladin shell.
(All house ruling aside, of course, and heaven knows I love house ruling and how house ruling is an argument against D&D Beyond.)
2014 oaths that do not have a 2024 version are still legal in the 2024 shell, but for oaths that do have a 2024 version, you’ve got to play the 2024 version if your group is playing D&D 5.24.
The reason for this is that some of the updated subclasses have nerfs or that features from them have been moved to the shell or otherwise taxed. Or, even the ones that have been buffed have the same issue in some sorta bid for table balance.
I cannot pick the 2014 version of things I own if they’re in 2024 content I don’t own
The intent is that it should work like this:
I cannot pick the 2014 version of things regardless of ownership if they’re in 2024 content regardless of ownership.
If Beyond platform ownership enters the equation, the Beyond team has messed up.
(Again, the word “legal” is a little silly in a game like D&D which works best when groups can change any rule, mash up editions freely etc. So please don’t shoot the messenger here. I don’t agree with WotC’s decision here. I just remember them announcing that this was how it was going to work, even at the table with all physical books and no Beyond.)

So in the end I am safe from Ghyrson shooting me with his autostubs? Then we played it right.♥︎
@halo@idiomdrottning.org @mtg@mtgzone.com @xgranade@wandering.shop
Thank you! The issue is that Ghyrson and the goblins do their damage simultaneously (3+1-1=3, but if that’s 2+1 I still get shot but if that’s 3+0 I don’t).

It’s still so awesome to me that a roleplaying group is in Rolling Stone magazine.

It’s also in print 💁🏻♀️ and there was that cute Japanese edition a few years back.
As I noted in my patch message and in the previous post, behavior gets a li’l weird when someone leaves mml-enable-flowed
on (the default!) but forgets to turn on use-hard-newlines
(not the default! And since it’s buffer local, it needs to be turned on every single time, for example with a hook).
So with these two settings kept at their defaults, separate paragraphs will get flowed together with my patch! So I sent a new version of the patch to the same #71017 thread that’ll auto-harden according to markdown semantics as a dwimmy fallback.

There’s also cook’s utensil rules in XGE.

Cherries!
I like settings where the players can play parties from all kinds of factions. I’ve seen 'em roll up members of the same cult their last party faught against etc. This isn’t a complete answer but just one more li’l contribution to the thought palette around this.
Democracy Now are being lauded in the video in case you missed that 🤷🏻♀️
I like Chris Hayes’ take as clipped in this video 43 minutes in:
The way that so many prominent voices have focused so exclusively on colleges feels honestly a bit decadent to me. Like we’re doing a paper doll version of conflict because the actual reality of what’s happening in Gaza is so horrific, unceasing, and high-stakes, it’s more enjoyable to argue about what college kids are doing than to confront the human misery and destruction that’s happening in the actual conflict that is, of course, the source of these protests. What seems to be most worth debating isn’t campus speech but whether the US government should contine to fund and support an Israeli war in Gaza that has pushed more than a million people to the brink of famine. A war that has damaged half of the buildings in Gaza. A war that has failed to bring home most of the hostages held by Hamas, that has in fact lead to the death of some those hostages.
This is a good video, thanks.
I’m not all onboard with the conclusions: “YouTube & TikTok good” (I believe they’re overall bad. Fund Peertube.) and “Socialist sentiment is growing” (I believe the overton window has been slipping & skipping to the right for decades now.)
CY_Borg by @chrull is great. Feels more polished and playable than Mörk Borg.

Meanwhile the Free and Open Source community have holy wars over text editors.

Is that still going on? I thought Emacs ruled supreme. Every monarchy a conquered sovereignity.

It’s so weird that they didn’t do this when they introduced the Primaris. Perfect in-universe opportunity.
But the Stormcast Eternals fixed it so 🤷🏻♀️
Sweden has these. But I can’t speak to how good or bad they are because I’ve never lived in one for more than a week or so at a time. I grew up out in the boonies.
As for the video, I like that it (unlike way too many of these video essays) doesn’t bury the lede; he’s up front about his perspective and then spend the rest of the video elaborating and explaining why. That’s an oasis in the desert of “mysterious, let me hold you in suspense for the lede” style videos we see too many of. I get really distracted by his music, though. I can’t fully listen to what he has to say since I get so into the heartbreakingly depressive synth pads.
Jag hade så svårt att få till en lyckad hummus men till sist kom jag på det. Knepet för mig visade sig vara att inte ha olivolja i. Det kan man ju hälla ovanpå om man vill.
What I did was use tokens for inspiration and saying “you can have as many as you want and then cash in all of them to get advantage”. That worked well.
Holy Sword! One of the best one page dungeons of all time.
