*whispers* If you've ever been on an airplane, you've used a gender-neutral bathroom, and nothing happened to you, AND you didn't feel the manufactured rage to complain about it. Remember? You just went back to 28F and ate a Biscoff.
Star Wars is essentially a movie about data breach response. - one that failed miserably.
I was thinking about this exchange between DM and party this morning, and I honestly think it's a real missed opportunity.... Let the player succeed. Congratulations you just pressured a catfish into sex. It is confused and ashamed and while it consented, it didn't actually want the encounter. It feels awkward and uncomfortable and no longer wants to spawn. You tell the player they are sore and their junk smells like fish. It does not wash off. They now experience disadvantage on all their interactions. Stuff costs more. Every day they lose 1 hp. Cure wounds doesn't solve it. They finally find a cleric who tells them that they are cursed and the cleric doesn't know how to lift it... He looks at the player differently afterwards. Never let them forget that they pressured a catfish into sex. Ever. Fundamentalist fearmongering video: This dungeon "master" is given complete control and "players" must do whatever dark things are demanded of them. Real DM: Please, just cross the river. You

With intergenerational wealth being so low among Black Americans, do you think there is a legitimate case for reparations? Tintenfische ICE cube: There’s a legitimate case for cut the bullshit, you know? We know it’s all about access to capital, and we’re being shut out of that access. It’s simple. Stop doing that shit and keep your reparations. What good is reparations gonna do, if you’re still gonna fuck us with the banking system? The system that we’re all slaves to. You got 13% of the people in America trying to live off 0.5% – that’s how much money flows through our neighbourhoods [a 2021 US Federal Reserve study states Black households account for 15.6% of the US population and hold 2.9% of wealth]. Of course there’s crime, because that percentage cannot live off that wealth. So, stop playing those games and we’ll solve our own problems – which nobody wants us to do, obviously.
