    TTRPGs & D&D

    This is what I do when I prepare more than one session in advance. I think it's the right approach; people have lives outside of the game. Good advice. I would rather approach someone in private, but I think doing so publicly, especially as the GM, might be valuable. "I like running this game...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    Does not compute. For now, anyway. We have the best cuisine on the planet. America is already great.

    S.H. Figuarts Marvel Figures

    Maybe I'm misreading it because the sentence isn't clear, but it sounds like Japan, the US, and Europe are unaffected.

    TTRPGs & D&D

    I'm putting together my own Halloween one-shot for the year. This time, I'm running Brindlewood Bay. It's a Powered by the Apocalypse system where the PCs are a group of elderly widows—members of the local Murder Mavens mystery book club—who find themselves solving actual murder mysteries in...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    The only way to separate the real ones from the pretenders. I feel the same way. My two favorite pizza places are in NYC and DC. The next three are all in Seattle, which was a joke of a pizza city even 20 years ago. I'm ambivalent about Italian pizza. I had some mediocre slices and some great...

    U.S. Politics

    Being in the White House used to mean something. There was an inherent level of competence and decency. That all went out the window with Trump, who possesses neither. The inmates run the asylum now. Not one person in the White House cares about materially improving the life of your average...

    U.S. Politics

    Grim. We could discuss whether all right-wing ideas lead to the same place, but Republican staffers being actual Hitler-worshipping Nazis is a new phenomenon. This is the impact of the internet and people like Charlie Kirk.

    Protest songs

    This one came up on shuffle today. Thanks, RNG. I needed it.

    U.S. Politics

    The VRA shit is incredibly grim. It becomes exponentially harder to "fix" this country if you have to win 55+% of the vote to do so. Resounding victory after victory for the racists and white supremacists. A rotten day in this country.

    Don't worry, the good times are coming.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    If you have to explain it to others in your country, that's totally what's happening. Not that these people can be reasoned with, but we're the richest country in the world and World Police. Do they want complete subservience? Counterpoint: they'd excuse anything.

    General Marvel Legends

    Any thoughts on the best head for Storm? I kind of want to replace the stock head with either the three-pack short-haired head or a mohawk head. I'm not concerned about accuracy because this is the Storm on my shelf.

    Tracking toy tariffs

    Is this part of the lower prices on day one promise? There's little you can do if the media refuses to cover it. You could hold a press conference every day, and it wouldn't matter unless the billionaire-controlled media covered it. Did you know, for Biden's first six months in office, he...

    Comic Book Talk

    The least interesting thing you can do with a superhero is give them kids. The second least interesting thing you can do is have them get married.

    That's super kind of you. Please send it to someone who will appreciate it!

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    BRB is one of my biggest wants now. Even if this were the case, I'd want Bill to get all the modern bells and whistles. Butterfly joints, double torso joints, etc. After all, who knows when we'll get the next one.

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    I came here to post that. I appreciate the rare peek behind the curtain. 11,000 is impressive. Hasbro might've accidentally killed the HasLab model (good!).

    U.S. Politics

    That's why you can't make blanket statements about these things (do better, me). I have several friends/acquaintances who moved/are in the process of moving south. If you have a life/friends/family there, or extenuating circumstances, sure. Without those things, I would not willingly move from...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    IMO, three major things have changed the consumer arithmetic on the BAF model: Price. It's a lot easier to swallow two figures you don't want when they're $8 each. Character selection. The Galactus wave was: Doctor Strange Hulk Nightcrawler Professor X War Machine Deathlok Bullseye Even the...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    I wish someone would conduct a study to figure out why some people prefer forums and others social media. For me, I'd rather put a gun in my mouth than spend one more second on Facebook, but I'm sure it's more nuanced than that.

    U.S. Politics

    I don't want to victim-blame, nor do I know his circumstances, but I'm confounded by people who do this. Even as a straight white man, I would not move to a purple/red state run by a Republican. Republican policies kill people. I think part of the problem is the stigma around saying so out loud.

    The Official Articulated Thoughts Baseball Thread

    This will probably come back to bite me, but the Jays didn't scare me. I'm petrified of the Dodgers.

    Selling Toys - Horror Stories & "Happy" Customers

    I'm selling a complete MAFEX figure. Someone just messaged me to ask if I would break it apart and sell them a replacement leg for their broken figure. What do you think the answer is going to be?? I swear nothing like this ever happened before I started posting in this thread.

    McFarlane Toys Elite Editions

    Ironically, I just heard about this book for the first time yesterday. I immediately added it to my read list.
