I coincidentally walked past on my way to an appointment at 4p and honestly the way the place was crawling with emergency cycles made me think there was a shooting or something. Haven’t seen this kind of police presence in NYC since the BLM protests in 2020.
Smart launcher and crayon icons
In terms of money and business, my fav is how Xerox didn’t know how to market/capitalize on what was effectively the first personal computer before personal computers were even a concept, which is estimated to be a $1.4 trillion mistake.
What launcher and icon pack is this?
What launcher is this?
I’m in marketing haha, I joke that I’m my parent’s IT person, but that’s just about as technical as I get
Crobat! I always add it to the party if it’s possible.
I pinched a nerve in my back late last week and today was the first morning I woke up without any immediate pain, so that’s progress at least
What I don’t understand is my company set things up to give everyone an alert every time they’re sending something to a non company domain. Why aren’t there any protections like this in place?
If we’re less than 3 players, she’ll play as an NPC as well. A lot of the times when it’s just us, we’ll either do a super balls to the walls session 0 character creation, or we’ll basically play test some of her campaign ideas as 2 players. Most of the time it ends up being much less structured, so more wiggle room to poke holes in plans, so it ends up being great practice for both of us.
Had a great session on Saturday! My partner is a DM so we play mini oneshots together quite often. This time, we invited 2 friends who’d never ever played, so she cooked up a quick 2 hour game to basically teach them the absolute basics of how to play. It included some cool character building, a scary but secretly nonlethal encounter against a cockatrice (aka demon chicken), and a great resolution with a bit of a cliffhanger ending. Of course they did all the heavy lifting while my nat 1s meant I hurt myself more than the enemy…
I think they actually really enjoyed it, and now we’re talking about setting up a semi regular time in order to turn it into more of a campaign!
I’ve never felt so called out in my life
We just finished up a short dungeon crawl with myself (ranger), a fighter, and the DM NPC (Bard), all lvl 7.
To preface this, my luck had been kinda shitty during a ton of rolls so far. We’d gotten the treasure, made it out of the dungeon, when suddenly the Bard casts Feign Death on the fighter (who had the bulk of it), grabs the treasure and runs. My horrible perception role means I think she actually just killed my best friend. So I get off my hunters mark and, in a moment driven by pure revenge, proceed to deal ~70 points of damage by making the best roles of my entire life. After confirming that my best friend is dead through another horrible roll, I deal a devastating finishing blow, grab him and the treasure, and sneak off with the intention of giving him a proper funeral. Of course he wakes an hour later and the DM is gobsmacked that I somehow downed her in a single turn.
This is my third time ever playing DND and the first time I haven’t died. I think I’m satisfied with how it went haha
I’m ace/homoromantic.
Thankfully I live in a pretty queer friendly area. I never technically came out, I just brought my GF with me to Thanksgiving one year. I absolutely gave my parents a heads up, but my personal philosophy is that if I wouldn’t have to come out if I was straight, I shouldn’t have to come out just because I’m gay. Thankfully my parents stopped inviting the problematic parts of my family years ago, so everything went super well. I’m effectively out to everyone generally in my day to day life.
My being ace though is nobody’s business except for my GF and tends to not come up in conversation lol
Looks incredible! And pockets!!
My partner and I got a beach house for a long weekend so we’re planning on doing a whole lotta nothing!
Idk but I find this incredibly funny. But also my dad is super into electronics and always tells me whenever he gets a new dyke (diagonal cutter) and I’m just like no you’re not allowed to replace me
We make it so that donations can go towards specific things (eg. a major food chain donated last year towards new custom percussion equipment in preparation for Macy’s) which makes for a very exciting internal announcement. Unexpectedly, I don’t think I’ve seen anything official from companies other than super vague announcements that you need to be searching for specifically.
