You don't get to make that determination during the stop, that's for the court to decide after the fact.

This looks like the AI slop youtube is always trying to sell me. It used to be impossibly chunky sweaters or Viking like tunics, now it's this I guess. It's always a similar kind of model, without a full face or hands, in the same pose in front of a nondescript background. I doubt this will turn out to be an actual photo of an actual product that isn't just a pattern cheaply silkscreened on to a similarly cheap linen. Fashion so fast it's marketed and sold before it actually exists.

I guess I didn't navigate the ads properly to the end of the article. Thanks for clarifying. We'll see how it pans out. I don't think Matt needs to be the forever GM for the crew to be successful. And it's nice to see Mercer get a chance to do some deeper role playing a single character instead of a handful of shallower NPCs.

he’ll be visiting the team at Critical Role as their Game Master for the next core campaign of the tabletop role-playing game, actual-play series’.

That's the actual quote from the article. It could be implying that Brandon is taking over the next campaign, but to me it sounds like he'll be visiting as an occasional GM the same way he did for events around campaign 3. That's cool, I think. The entire crew thrives on collaboration.

Trump isn't long for this world unless we do something about the zealots supporting him, then we'll be dealing with his legacy EVEN LONGER after his passing. I mean we're going to be dealing with the consequences of his terms for generations anyway, but things can always get worse if we don't course correct as soon as possible. His supporters aren't just mindless drones that will disperse once he's gone, they are the workers making the magic happen for him. A demagogue without their minions isn't the same kind of threat.

Some of those "morals" need to decay.

When they put a Starbucks across the street from a Dunkin Donuts, they both perform better

You don't even need the ship to have active acoustics, just that the other ships whizzing by using "insert sci-fi techno babble force here" affect space and matter around them in such a way that energy waves from that sci-fi force moving silently through the vacuum and turn into sound when they interact with the technology/structure of your own ship or spacesuit. Like a microwave generating sparks and a crackling noise across metal foil.

The et cetera: Shouldn't be allowed to work overtime either. And they should get taxed more if they work a second job, so only 40 hours per week. Attach ridiculous fees to any attempt at saving money in a bank, can't have their money earning interest for them. They should also be in a high cost of living part of hell with no public transportation. And they should be forced to buy their own safety equipment. They should have to pay for healthcare out of pocket, no good health insurance. And they should be penalized for aging the same way too, with new billionaires coming in cheaper and forcing them out of their position and making their experience a liability in finding new work. Let's throw in some inflation to keeps things spicy. An HOA that is constantly fighting them and won't let them grow food. How about random detentions and beatings for being the wrong shade in the wrong part of hell town, the part they work in. And they should never be allowed to forget for one moment what they had in life and how they squandered it on petty selfish things.

It's also an argument for not having your own domain for emails, because you may one day loose that domain too, and someone could poach the domain to impersonate you.
