Adventuring Academy is BACK with guest Sam de Leve!

Kinda weird how you say you’re against fascism yet you shut down anyone just because they share a different opinion than you. You guys are exactly what you say you hate... FASCIST! How come I have never seen any member of antifa actually sit down with someone and have a civil debate? I’ve only ever seen them yell and throw tantrums. Doesn’t look good for you guys, yikes.

fascism in italy was not defeated by discourse.

Something I heard recently: if you insist on sheltering both lambs and wolves, you will get in the end only wolves. If you insist your safe space is safe for bigots as well as minorities you will have a space full of bigots- minorities will be driven out.

Fuck Fascists. Punch all the Nazis. Punch them until they're all dead.

To any czech followers who would want to help with disaster fund relief for the victims of yestedays tornado but dont know how, Charity of Brno is now accepting donations…

lonely-sebastian

Please, if you can, share or donate. It hit the village I come from and grew up in. My family is okay, they were lucky as it missed our house. But many of my friends, acquaintances and others were not. I was on the verge of tears when mom was describing the catastrophe to me over the phone today. They are still without power and there is barely any phone signal and no one knows when they are gonna get those back.

Thank you

not to talk about doctor who but remember being a lonely depressed teenager and hearing him say '900 years of time and space and i've never met anyone who wasn't important'

bbg100

he was like ‘just this once-everybody lives’ and i chased that shit with homosexual determination for every day since, like maybe through pure force of will i could save everyone i loved from a system that wanted us dead

Doctor Who isn’t necessarily the best-written show, it’s nothing world-stopping, but god, if it didn’t help me through being a depressed teenager. It wasn’t just ‘never give up’ or ‘love conquers all’, it was them looking the audience dead in the eyes and saying, ‘I see you. You are important and special, and you deserve to give yourself a good life’. And I will always thank it for that.

who even are you. like what did you write

I have no idea. Let me see if anyone else in this ask place knows.

telebisou

you're thinking of Jill Eikenberry; I think this guy was an astronaut of some kind

asingerofdreams

that's Neil Armstrong, I thought this guy was in How I Met Your Mother

neil-gaiman

That's Neil Patrick Harris. I think this might have been the playwright who wrote The Odd Couple.

nodaybuttodaytodefygravity

That's Neil Simon, I'm pretty sure you're the guy who sang Breaking Up Is Hard to Do

instantmonkeysonline

No that's Neil Sedaka; this is the Two Trucks Having Sex guy

unexpected-tigers

nah, that’s Neil Cicierega, I’m pretty sure this is Charles II’s mistress

Imagine when a lukewarm take is so wrong that the author rightfully, publicly drags it....

"Say you've never read Sandman without saying you've never read Sandman."

It's definitely been a week. How did it get so normal and sensible on Tumblr, while the grumpy shouty people are off on Twitter? So odd...

“[Playing Taako] has made me understand a little bit better how taxing it can be when your sexuality is politicized, rather than just your own thing. When who you…and who you want to love…becomes polarizing, it’s very stressful. Being Taako became a lot more complicated once Taako was a canonically gay character, and I’m sure that is true ten-thousandfold for people for whom that’s their actual life.”

Holy shit this though.

Also this:

“I asked Justin how he felt about the positive attention he and his family have received for espousing inclusivity in their work. ‘If I’m being honest, it makes me uncomfortable. I always feel like I’m doing the bare minimum we should be doing as people. When people talk about kindness, it messes me up a little bit because I feel like I’m just treating people the way I was taught to treat people. It’s weird to me that that’s so much of a unicorn, that it’s worth noting.’”

I said it in the past, I’ll say it again now and forever. Clint raised them RIGHT.

This arc really shows how good Matt is at giving his players narrative rewards for what they do.

He’s rewarded their daring. The attempt to retrieve the bag of holding was risky and it failed - but it took one of the Crests out of Lucien’s grasp and bought the Nein a week while the Tombtakers went on a wild crest chase across Eiselcross. The Sanitorium raid didn’t go to plan either, but they still got the amulets, and that let them ambush the Tombtakers brilliantly.

He’s rewarded their cleverness. Taliesin’s genius idea to send some of the group into the Happy Fun Ball? It had its casualties (poor Luc) but it got them away from Trent safely. The Nein’s Intuit Charge ambush? Made sure the Nein only had to fight Cree, not any of the Tombtakers’ frontline. Marisha realising that Beau could commune with Cognouza and maybe even control it? That got the group to Yussa, and then straight to the Aether Crux.

He’s rewarded their curiosity and their engagement with the world. Repairing Devexian got them directions straight to B-9, in a chase where time was crucial. Fjord testing the Rejuvenator meant that Essek had the knowledge and resources to suggest the Dunamancy Powernap.

He’s rewarded their emotional investment. The connections they’ve made with Astrid, the Gentleman, Yussa, Allura - those got them resources, advice, a safe place to hide their families. If they hadn’t befriended Essek, they might never have learned that they could safely leave Eiselcross to prepare. Caleb wouldn’t have had Immovable Object to cast on that Threshold Crest. Maybe they wouldn’t have successfully set all three Intuit Charges for the trap.

And of course, there’s the Dunamancy Powernap. DMs playing allied NPCs are often advised to keep them out of any major planning to preserve player agency, and Matt has largely been doing that. But Essek chipping in at that point with such a game-changing suggestion feels like the players’ reward for engaging with the world lore of dunamancy, and for investing so much in an NPC that he had a morality crisis for them and followed them to the end of the world.

Of course we all knew that Matt’s an incredible DM who knows how to give his players narrative satisfaction. But that’s really been shining through this arc, and I’m loving it.

doctor who may be a silly sci-fi show but it's had some raw as fuck moments anyone remember that time donna was unknowingly trapped in a matrix-esque simulation and while kissing her computer generated children goodnight they straight up asked like are we real mummy?? "sometimes when you’re not here, it’s like we’re not here... even when you close your eyes... we just stop" and donna replies "well mummy promises to never close her eyes again" and as she goes to tuck them into bed she blinks and they fucking disappear and she starts screaming and weeping and my god this is supposed to be a kids show

doccywhomst

and when donna took a left turn, instead of going right, and ended the fucking world, only to brave the apocalypse and make it out alive?? and when she, teary-eyed and weeping, convinced a jaded Doctor to save just one person from one of the worst disasters in history, just someone? and when she heard a song shared by the enslaved Ood that was so sorrowful and desolate that she couldn't take it anymore, and she decided to free them at any cost? and when she saved the life of Agatha Christie, the official "world's best-selling fiction writer" of all time? and when she comforted the ghost of a woman who died alone? donna had only one series but she also had the RANGE to be one of the best companions that Doctor Who has ever seen, and I love her to pieces

#Donna is the best companion #and her series is the best from the new who #plus Cathrine Tate and David Tennant have insane chemistry
