Reminds me of a program in Homestuck. It’s code that iterates until the author/universe dies, then executes some unknown code. The coding language is ~ath, or TilDeath.

I’m sorry, just my anxiety speaking there. Of course you’re right, but if Trump death squads purge the undesirables, nobody will be left to defend the environment, and this is on a shorter time table.

I apologize for my candor. I’m spiraling a bit.

We could only dream

You accidentally wrote in two unnecessary words at the end of that sentence.

Honestly, I can’t be bothered to worry about the climate 100 years from now when we’re going to be attacking (many more) Americans 100 days from now

Dust bowl, schmust bowl; I ain’t movin’ to Californie!!

My drive-in still has the window speakers, but also has the radio option too. I think we only went once this year, for Deadpool and Wolverine.

There actually is a huge push to replace ALL lead service lines in the next few years. Also the EPA has extra funding for treatment of “emerging contaminants” which includes PFAS. Republicans are trying (and succeding) to reduce this funding.

Very cool, got a ‘75%’

Nature is brutal. It’s UNNATURAL to limit oneself to eating things with less nutrients. Being one with nature means you kill or be killed, and only the fittest survive.

Now the difference of philosophy here is that the structure humans have created is much more unnatural than that. A druid would agree that going out into the woods with a bow and shooting a deer is fine. But going to a restaurant and ordering chicken that was raised in a barn, for the sole purpose of consumption, is wildly unnatural.

Is this supposed to be an adult trick-or-treating or are we looking at a depiction of a child here…

Fucking christ what a sobering post

My party fought a purple worm recently. It devoured the cleric. Then the sorcerer used polymorph on it to turn it into a frog, which caused the cleric to get squeezed out of it like toothpaste in a tube and shot out of it and collided with the cavern ceiling, taking ‘fall’ damage. Then the cleric used divine intervention (successfully)… as a divine avatar they swooped down and crushed the frog between their hands, releasing a tidal wave of venemous worm viscera to wash over everyone causing them to take massive poison damage. Great fun :D

In terms of your plan, drilling a hole in the rod may cause it to lose function. Also a general rule about polymorph is that there needs to be room for the transformation, and a general rule for invalid creature placement is that creatures take a small amount of force damage and are moved to the closest available space. As your DM I’d probably say you couldn’t end polymorph early while it’s in the rod, and if you lost concentration or the duration expired, it would be shunted next to the rod and take 2d10 force damage.

Actually what I’d like to do is have the worm trapped in the rod, make you believe it died, and the next time you used it the worm would appear.

Solutions to being too cold - put on more layers, get a hot beverage, do some light exercise

Solutions to being too hot - get to some AC, splash water on yourself, take off layers

The problem is that the first set of solutions is generally more accessible and work-friendly. I can’t take off my shirt on a site visit for work (or even wear shorts, and being in damp sweaty clothes is miserable compared to being chilly and needing to warm up.

Your Walmart doesn’t have self-checkout? Or other open lanes? It’s one particular cashier? Regardless if she’s harassing you like that you need to let her/management know.

Well Nintendo is playtesting a Minecraft-style MMO so hopefully they’ve put resources towards better online play.
