We have corporate protections in the USA.

Throw that on the pile of impeachable offenses then, I guess?

A stepparent can call their spouse's children their own. That's not a lie or a gotcha moment.

What is the purpose of you pointing it out? Do you have an agenda or are you simply a pedant?

You have the right instinct, narrative takes a backseat to player comfort. Don't worry if it makes sense in-game, that's not a real concern. Do whatever tying up of narrative threads you want, after you're sure the player is comfortable out-of-game.

If the player wants, just let them start the next game with a new sheet. If they want to do a sendoff, do it at the top of the session. If they don't want to acknowledge the old character, then they just evaporate and a new one is inserted.

Ultimately you're playing with friends, and the reason everyone is there is to have fun. The group's fun should take precedent over everything else.

If Trump wins, we won't have fair elections in 2028. Do they need to see a second insurrection to get off the fence?

They've been bemoaning the fact we have Democracy lately. They're playing up the Republic angle, and believe the People can't make the correct decisions for themselves.

At the officer's discretion...

I could see cryptobros and the "investing" subs spending a lot on this. They were already buying tons of awards to hype themselves up.

Any unironic circlejerk cult will by buying these and pinning them on each other's chest, same as the dumbass awards.

I think reddit knows their target audience pretty well; Rubes. That's why they let all the toxic "stock", crypto-scam and political extremist subs stay open until the media starts writing stories about them. Gullible idiots spend a lot of money trying to make their opinions look smart and popular.

This will make Reddit a lot of money in the short-term, but probably push more legitimate/casual users away as these "premium upvotes" will surely effect the algorithm and push more nonsense into people's feeds.

Now that i think about it, this will probably help advertisers and political groups astroturf all of reddit.

His lawyers forgot to ask for one. There were a dozen articles floating around this morning about it.

The union chiefs announced it on Twitter and thanked Biden by name for having a team continue to negotiate. Whether people were paying attention or the media covered is a different matter.

These dummies never understand that their country doesn't want them. Society grows and leaves some people behind. Adapt and grow or turn in to an old man yelling at clouds.

You don't see a problem with needing to build a 3rd bathroom in every place that only has 2 bathrooms, and would single out those who use it as an "other" to anyone seeing them use it?
