This is offensive. I have it on good authority that the thing he hated most was a full bottle of gin and would do everything in his power to turn it into an empty bottle of gin.

This is a serious problem, I think we need to ban cars ASAP!

Yeah, anyone who doesn’t agree with me is a Russian bot.

Thanks for posting this comment. I was looking around for a donation link but couldn't find it. Good to know it isn't my search-fu failing me this time.

I’ve long suspected a link between the two.

Dexedrine got me through university, though with some issues.

Obviously, like all the big stimulants, sleep can be an issue.

Exercise was a problem - the revving of the cardiovascular system by the drug was heightened during exercise and not a nice feeling at all.

Your body builds up a tolerance to it, so regular ‘vacations’ from it may be needed to counter that.

It was 20 years ago when I took it, and was covered by a drug plan that only had a $0.35 payment at the pharmacy, so don’t know about the costs. It’s a really old drug, dating back to the late 1800s, so it seems like it shouldn’t be that expensive, but then I’m not a greedy pharmaceutical company, so what do I know.

Okay, I figured it out. It goes onto the filament spool holder. Weird.

It’s great when your "union" collaborates with your employer more than the workers. Sounds totally legit. Then add religion into it, well even better. Good grief.

I’m on the fence for most of this. As both DM and player, I find 5e incredibly bland and boring. But that’s personal taste really. Adding an additional feat for first level characters would help with the blandness and start to have differences between characters at first level.

But it’s hard to argue with the success 5e has had with attracting new players. I think there’s a good argument to be made that part of this success is due to the simplifications made in the game as a whole and particularly character creation.

I do really like D&D doing the work of bringing new players to the hobby, so I hope it keeps that as a priority.
