Context: the rogue player and the DM planned one particular NPC’s death in a advance in order to get his personal plot in motion. I didn’t know that and tried my best to save that NPC. And succeed.
(Rogue OOC): You want me to roleplay happy things? Healthy relationships? You’re a monster.
why do people say “don’t be a pussy” when talking about weakness more like “don’t be a man’s ego” because you know there isn’t nothing more fragile than that
I was basically undergoing a job interview before my new character would be allowed to join the party.
Player: So, who did you work for before?
Me: I had the honor of serving the Prince.
Player: …which prince?
Me: (Not knowing where we were since I had just joined the game after a hiatus)The Prince.
DM: You all, of course, know of the great Bard–formerly known as Prince–who wandered the land singing legendary songs.
Me: Yeah, he was a great showman. He’d use prestidigitation during his performances to make Purple Rain. And his songs were so great that it’d make Doves Cry.
Context: The Lost Mines of Phandelver Starter Set, just after the Sleeping Giant tap house battle with the Redbrand Ruffians. Playing D&D with my little brother and father. My dad’s character’s alignment is Lawful Good.
Dad: “I decapitate the two dead ruffians, tie their hair together, and drag the living one in front of the Redbrand hideout. I throw the heads into the burned-out ruins of the manor and bellow, ‘This is what happens when you mess with adventurers! If you want the same fate, meet us as The Stonehill Inn!’ And I thrust my greatsword through the captive ruffian’s back, and it explodes out the other side of him.“
This Facebook comment about Jeremy Corbyn and the General Election is going viral on social media. Chris Renwick's post has garnered 5,700 shares so far and has been reposted across social media ever since it went up last week.
Here’s what I’m really struggling to understand. All I’ve ever heard from people, for years, is:
“bloody bankers and their bonuses”
“bloody rich and their offshore tax havens “
“bloody politicians with their lying and second homes”
“bloody corporations paying less tax than me”
“bloody Establishment, they’re all in it together”
“it’ll never change, there’s no point in voting”
And quite rightly so, I said all the same things.
But then someone comes along that’s different. He upsets the bankers and the rich. The Tory politicians hate him along with most of the labour politicians. The corporations throw more money at the politicians to keep him quiet. And the Establishment is visibly shaken. I’ve never seen the Establishment so genuinely scared of a single person.
So the media arm of the establishment gets involved. Theresa phones Rupert asking what he can do, and he tells her to keep her mouth shut, don’t do the live debate, he’ll sort this out. So the media goes into overdrive with:
“she’s strong and stable”
“he’s a clown”
“he’s not a leader”
“look he can’t even control his own party”
“he’ll ruin the economy”
“how’s he gonna pay for it all?!”
“he’s a terrorist sympathiser, burn him, burn the terrorist sympathiser”
And what do we? We’ve waited forever for an honest politician to come along but instead of getting behind him we bow to the establishment like good little workers. They whistle and we do a little dance for them. We run around like hypnotised robots repeating headlines we’ve read, all nodding and agreeing. Feeling really proud of ourselves because we think we’ve came up with our very own first political opinion. But we haven’t, we haven’t come up with anything. This is how you tell. No matter where someone lives in the country, they’re repeating the same headlines, word for word. From Cornwall to Newcastle people are saying:
“he’s a clown”
“he’s a threat to the country”
“she’s strong and stable”
“he’ll take us back to the 70s”
And there’s nothing else, there’s no further opinion. There’s no evidence apart from one radio 5 interview that isn’t even concrete evidence, he actually condemns the violence of both sides in the interview. There’s no data or studies or official reports to back anything up. Try and think really hard why you think he’s a clown, other than the fact he looks like a geography teacher (no offence geography teachers) because he hasn’t done anything clownish from what I’ve seen.
And you’re not on this planet if you think the establishment and the media aren’t all in it together.
You think Richard Branson, who’s quietly winning NHS contracts, wants Corbyn in?
You think Rupert Murdoch, who’s currently trying to widen his media monopoly by buying sky outright, wants Jeremy in?
You think the Barclay brothers, with their offshore residencies, want him in?
You think Philip Green, who stole all the pensions from BHS workers and claims his wife owns Top Shop because she lives in Monaco, wants Corbyn in?
You think the politicians, both Labour and Tory, with their second homes and alcohol paid for by us, want him in?
You think Starbucks, paying near zero tax, wants him in?
You think bankers, with their multi million pound bonuses, want him in?
And do you think they don’t have contact with May? Or with the media? You honestly think that these millionaires and billionaires are the sort of people that go “ah well, easy come easy go, it was nice while it lasted”?? I wouldn’t be if my personal fortune was at risk, I’d be straight on the phone to Theresa May or Rupert Murdoch demanding this gets sorted immediately.
Because here’s a man, a politician that doesn’t lie and can’t lie. He could have said whatever would get him votes anytime he wanted but he hasn’t. He lives in a normal house like us and uses the bus just like us. He’s fought for justice and peace for nearly 40 years. He has no career ambitions. And his seat is untouchable. That’s one of the greatest testimonies. No one comes close to removing him from his constituency, election after election.
His Manifesto is fully costed. It all adds up, yes there’s some borrowing but that’s just to renationalise the railway, you know we already subsidise them and they make profit yeah? One more time… WE subsidise the railway companies and they walk away with a profit, just try and grasp the level of piss taking going on there.
Unlike the Tory manifesto with a £9 billion hole, their figures don’t even add up.
And it benefits all of us, young, old, working, disabled, everyone. The only people it hurts are the establishment, the rich, the bankers, the top 5% highest earners.
Our session have one human, a elf and a orc, the human is a jerk, the female elf and the orc are bffs.
The god of chaos cursed the party orc and human with a “soulmate spell” that makes one get damaged when the other do, but they hate each other and in the middle of a mission where we need the elf to try to be cute to lure a cult of fanatics of the bealty god and get a item to summon the god of chaos to take of the curse they do it.
Human: You are the most bealtiful elf of the ugly ones.
Elf: If it wasn’t for the spell I would have already punched you.
Orc: I will revenge my friend! I roll to punch the human.
DM: you know you receive damaged when he is attacked, right?
Orc: I ROLL TO PUNCH THE HUMAN.
Human: *don’t manage to dodge*
Orc: *roll nat 20*
DM: The orc punches the human with all his rage and fury, instantly killing him and also dying.
So I am stepping out of my comfort zone once again and hopefully make a few new friends. I have tried making friends before but I want to try again. If you want to talk feel free to message me. :)
Hi Anon! There was a plan to upgrade some of my equipment mid January, but unfortunately, the "academy" I was on, didn't offer me a position. It was a real downer for a good while, but the company who were behind it gave me some good feedback, and after a small break, I'm planing to be back, so maybe I'll have a video for the 21st! Hope you had a good new year's party, and you are happy with my answer!Jonnie!
