That makes as much sense as saying that the left enables fascists by not being convincing enough.

ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto D&D Next - 5e Discussion@ttrpg.network•A Ring of Mind Shielding with a god trapped inside?3·5 days agoLet them. Just have the ring draw them into even bigger trouble every time they do. Like he saves you from being chased by a pack of owlbears by setting the forest on fire. Now you are being hunted by a circle of pissed off druids.
ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto D&D Next - 5e Discussion@ttrpg.network•A Ring of Mind Shielding with a god trapped inside?9·5 days agoReminds me a bit of Fizban from the Dragonlance novels. Pretended to be an old senile wizard who couldn’t remember his spells half the time. In reality was a good god playing 5D chess to position the heroes to save the world from evil.
You could have him say a bunch of inane stuff and then throw in "Back in my day there was a powerful enchanter living that ruined castle. I wonder what happened to all the magical artifacts he made?"The heroes obviously jump at the chance for treasure but stumble upon cultists trying to resurrect an evil dead god that need thwarting.
If a player is about to die, he “remembers” a spell to help save them but needs to sleep for a few days after.

ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Chicago Democrats issue warnings about their mayor amid Zohran Mamdani's rise14·19 days agoAlso from Chicago, a lot of the hate he gets is “because he’s a black man”. Same with Lori Lightfoot and Kim Fox. A lot of people absolutely hated them but couldn’t articulate any reasons beyond being black and progressive. There is still a deeply racist streak in this city, especially among the self-perceived upper class.
Train as a masseuse. Get a job at Mar-a-lago. Work there for 3 years. After that time very non-employee there I have touched all spontaneously combust simultaneously.
ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL about the term "kludge"English14·21 days agoThis is my specialty. Once my friends and I BBQed at a park but forgot the spatula and tongs. I smashed an empty soda can flat with a rock and wedged it on the end of a stick to make a spatula. I also sharpened and split a stick to make a sort of two pronged fork. It did the job.

ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Humanity will likely survive climate change, but the vast majority of humans won't.52·21 days agoA large band around the equator will become unsurvivable. Hundreds of millions of people will flee to cooler climates. Countries will already be straining to provide food and water for their people. This will lead to wars for resources. Nations with nuclear capabilities will fracture and collapse, leaving their weapons in the hands of warlords and despots. Pandemics like COVID will become increasingly more common, not just for humans but for our livestock and crops. I hope you are right, but then again 5 billion might be a conservative estimate.

ChonkyOwlbear@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•USA: Nationwide "Rage Against the Regime" protest planned for August 21·22 days agoThat’s the thing. You have to get enough people arrested that the system can’t handle it. Its tough to find that many people willing to make that sacrifice until things get much worse than they are now
The same judge who threw out the fine literally said there was harm. You clearly didn’t read the article.
