First fucking term and even before that. This bit’s old already.

I am absolutely arguing that. The rich in actual mid-to-south New York and elsewhere aren’t actually taxed, why would the rich in Gotham be?

Key word, Should. If taxes actually went where people say it does, it might. And even then, it’d also take a lot of funding outside of just taxes, not to mention someone to actually start doing stuff about with all that funding. Also note on that list is rampant corruption and criminal syndicates mingling with the government.

I just think whether or not each and every player here has an outrageously high stat and what those stats are is a bit of an unnecessary hassle to add to the already long list of things the GM needs to keep track of.

The problem with this argument is that first off, the GM can’t know your character sheet front-to-back because they’re not playing your character, so they probably don’t know if even a 1 will pass the DC they’ve set.

1/20 is much less regular than 5/20 or even 19/20

It’s still far more common than is reasonable.

“Even” Animals don’t deserve it? Why is “even” in that sentence? Are you assuming we would be more willing to hurt animals than we would be to defend ourselves from fascists?

Tolerance of intolerance is the death of tolerance.

That implies animals are lesser than fascists.

I just ctrl F’d “Undead Unluck” and didn’t find it so there’s that one. In fact, it even makes sure to establish the importance of healthy relationships! AND that beauty isn’t always in youth!

This is a common misconception from their depictions in the movies showing the characters treating them like hammers, both in terms of how they swing them and sometimes in terms of how they hit enemies with the blade never cutting anything.

I have to agree with bleistift2 that you chose a bad example here, at least in regards to the United States and other rampantly car-dependent places. Obviously the wording is ableist, but someone complaining about a real issue such as car-dependency or just generally high-class laziness might not think of that at the time. A better example I think would be

People’s aversion to talking to others is stunningly ridiculous and shouldn’t be enabled.

Not only is this more obviously ignorant of disability, but it also doesn’t pose the question of if they’re arguing against something no-one should be complaining about vs real-world issues caused by corruption and late-stage capitalism. c/fuckcars

When you go into a public space and see a guy you’ve never seen or heard of before in your life and then later get arrested for associating with a sexual predator because you looked at that guy even though nothing about him even hinted at anything to do with crime of any sort.

Gonna have to agree with the one replying to ya here - you did not explain what you meant at all.

And more lies.

If that’s not what you were saying, then what were you saying?

Also, I like how you say both “I am not saying you are a racist” and “your (subconscious) bigotry” as if those aren’t total contradictions.

They are not. Subconscious bigotry or bias doesn’t necessarily make one a bigot, as contradictory as that may sound. Whether they like to admit or not, everyone reacts differently to people who are noticeably different from them. There is no way to entirely avoid this, only to realize when it happens and not act according to it. Or in other words: “I don’t care if you’re racist! EVERYONE’S racist!”

No, you’re not understanding. There is nothing saying, RAW, you can’t play as a gnoll. The RAW is that you can’t choose a gnoll as your race - but in the case of being polymorphed into one, you didn’t choose that, you were changed into one. And the RAW for that is to assume that everything works the same as before, barring what is explicitly said in the spell for that transformation. And once again, nothing in the spell says you stop playing as a character who is transformed, regardless of if the transformation is “playable” or not. There is not even a “playable” tag for anything, anywhere, in RAW.

You are the thing this post is making fun of.

They’re saying in this case, seemingly, he was born male, but a trans femboy can exist.

But nothing explicitly states that you stop playing as the character you were playing as if they were transformed, whether into a playable character option or not. There is no rule saying that that character is playable, but there is no rule saying you can’t play as them. Again, spells do what they say they do.

I mean, if a friend bit you would it not cause some aff-Oh, just friends, not roommates…hm…

The target’s game statistics, including mental ability scores, are replaced by the statistics of the new form. It retains its alignment and personality.

OP could’ve just repeated “spells do what they say they do.” It doesn’t say you lose control of your character in the new form, all it says about the new form and how that affects the character is…well, that line(plus a few other things about the gear they were wearing and whatnot).
