Ambassador Tomalak might be the closest TNG got, other than Lore I suppose. I'm not sure Q is a villain, just an antagonist. Thomas Riker never quite went anywhere. 000 0

dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Ah, that does make sense. That doesn't sound entirely uncommon. Maybe your stairs will be closer to the house. Usually there's a small gap between the stair footer and the landing pad. I don't know the code for slope on that pad, though, and Michigan is probably different than Wisconsin anyway. GL! 000 0

dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 07/10/2026The co-writer and director of Sid & Nancy is named Alex Cox. I think that is probably his best known film, but not the only one. He also wrote this book that Matt is talking about, "I Am (Not) A Number: Decoding The Prisoner," among several others. 10,000 Ways To Die looks interesting to me. 020 2

dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Definitely agreed there. Yes, crits make combat more variable, but they are so much fun to roll and are always dramatic when you're hit by one. Plus, they're deadly, but they're not "hit by AD&D Disintegrate" deadly. Let me roll double dice sometimes. That's all I want. 000 0
dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I would say jerk DM. The framework of the adventuring game is killing monsters and finding loot. So, the game defaults to murder mode. Adding depth to an encounter, then punishing the players because the game design & mechanics are in that framework is unfair. Or: This is how you get murder hobos. 110 1

Migraines followed by big barometric changes is always awful. 010 1

dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 22/08/2026After COVID when rescues were overflowing, my friend and her husband went looking.

I don't think you could make them squeak as easily as this video shows it happening, but that might be because of the traffic they get. 150 5
dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 09/08/2026This pack was nuts, but wheeling Swords is absolutely wild even in this pack. I'd have picked Ancestral P1P1. But I could see taking either of the two Moxes or Academy instead. 010 1

dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 28/07/2026This was me, as well. I especially liked the ability to prepare multiple outdoor maps in advance with these (indoor doesn't work so well because fog of war).

dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 16/07/2026It's a weird sub. I've seen many "So you hate waffles" responses there. You're right that there are good people there, but there's an undercurrent that puts me off. I'd rather have discussions of game ideas and designs. Criticism that isn't met with "if you don't like it you're playing it wrong." 050 5
dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Definitely. I blame social media, which gives you a ❤️ button for agreement (and no discussion) and a 💬 button for disagreement (or discussion). This falsely conflates discussion with disagreement. 020 2
dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 03/07/2026My best friend is a huge fan of the original on AO3, "Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love". She prefers the fanfic even if the new book is often better written. She also frequently says that Dramione fanfic is better than JKR's writing. JKR got very lucky. She's not that good. 030 3
dachicken.bsky.social @dachicken.bsky.social · 28/06/2026That's about as much as a friend of mine said about it. I still can't believe MCU made like 20 movies and then stuck the landing with Infinity War and Endgame. Hollywood pulling that off had to have worse probability than Dr. Strange finding a solution. 040 4

This is my favorite example of this 😭😭 2632731124 3.3K
