Wasn’t early D&D played with three D6s, because D20s weren’t easily available at the time, and so rolling three sixes would be the equivalent of a natural 20?

I could see how that might be a little alarming to a parent in 1974.

I always laugh at these people. I’m paraphrasing, but in the 7th book Harry essentially tells Voldemort, “I died for them, you can’t touch them.”

This is of course mirroring the fact that his own parents had died to protect him from Voldemort in the first place, but it’s also very much symbolic of the central Christian concept of Christ dying to save sinners. Harry is very much a Christ-figure in the end, forgiving those who had been his enemies and even pitying Voldemort himself. It’s not quite as blatant as C.S. Lewis and his, “If people don’t realize the lion is Jesus I’m going to have an aneurysm,” but it’s still obvious.

People who say stuff like this is satanic live in such a pitifully small world. I feel sorry for them.

And the most important part: she admitted she was wrong and that it’s fine

This is the part where Republicans and have the biggest problems with, as in the face pf evidence they usually just double down and that’s it.

Most people that think things are Satanic are woefully ill informed about the subject.

I would go so far as to say all of them. The whole idea of Satan is ridiculous, it’s “The Boogeyman” for adults.

Oh I agree, but I leave a little room for people’s religions even if I think it’s all bullshit.

Well some adults are also just plain stupid.

sorry but it’s either that she didn’t “buy fully into ‘IT’S SATANISM’” or this entire post is made up.

people who buy fully into it don’t allow a test run. if it did g happen she was more likely concerned it might be some cultist shit but was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt and she doesn’t deserve to be described as “bought fully into it”.

In addition to what others have said, sadly the myth persists among some people. I have a good friend who I used to play Magic: The Gathering with. I had been playing for years before I met him (since 3rd edition) and had a pretty decent collection, and he invested a lot of money in cards in the next few years.

At one point I was moving away to a place where I didn’t know anyone and needed to travel light, so instead of selling my collection I gave them to him.

I ended up coming back to my home state and we became roommates. Then he became ‘born again’ and instead of giving me those cards back, he burnt them all.

I’m not really mad at the guy for it, he was doing what he thought was right, but I do regret giving him the cards in the first place.

This is my first time seeing another person using monospace font for social media in the wild. I’ve changed my phone’s system font to Fira Code to make almost everything monospace.

Except you learned british English, not freedom English

Why. Legibility?

My son taught himself English by setting Minecraft to English. Once he mastered that, he set it to Pirate.

I learned CAD because of Doom.

Don’t even get started on back tracking of albums in the seventies…

That is what I did after years of playing.

I use comic sans some people just want to watch the world burn.

Christianity as a religion encourages fear and paranoia. None of this is accidental.

Honestly, just because I could, and once I had done it, I just liked the way it looked, so I’ve kept it. That, and I remember it being a pain to change in One UI. I don’t remember how I did it, and the process is probably different by now anyways, so I’d have to look it up, and I’m not about to do all that again.

Think you could vibe with my favorite Swedish Doom Metal album of an RPG, Mörk Borg? I’ve also played Cy_Borg, though haven’t tried Pirate Borg yet. Pretty rules-light, very much focused on the bleak vibes of a tired world on the brink of Armageddon. Can do DM+1 player with a little tweaking, but anyone reading this is invited to DM me.

I could set up a matrix room and do a session zero to walk through the rules if you’d like!
