    The originals were fantasy. I’s not a hot take, it’s fact - Swords, wizards, castles, knights, the heros journey. Some of the other shows and media since departed from that. Mandelorean is a western, solo was a heist movie, and most the shows don’t fit the fantasy tropes that well. None of Star wars, to my knowledge, fits sci fi at all.











  • The Internet is a fickle creature. Lemmy users tend to not support posts that could be interpreted as an ad. Flagship phones seem to be a top item on the hit list.

    Personally, I have used flagship phones but do not plan to in the future. Cheap ones last longer in my experience and don’t have ads in menus and undeletable bloatware. After buying a Samsung TV, which has the above issues and more, I don’t plan to buy anything from that company again.

    Please don’t dwell on posts that do badly if you are being genuine. Might just need to try a different community for these types of posts.







  • The zeitgeist with DND druids has always bored me. I play them exclusively evil, as I am finding out just as I think about it now.

    There is a middle finger of vecna druid archetype that allows for unique shapeshifts into an abomination. It’s a lot of fun to play and the shapeshift options are very versatile and adjustable each shift. I role played a LE human who sook out expediting the heat death of the universe for the Eldritch pantheon. I joined the party as they were already doing a good job leading to the destruction of society. It was all for the purity of nature, of course.

    Another I played was a spore druid who was basically Shaggy from Scooby Doo, but evil. The archetype I used was absolutely awful but it came with lots of good stories as I got incredibly high irl to play the character. I conspired with the DM against the party for the glory of Strahd for an entire year of play, and then abandoned the vampire lord when the party started winning the final fight. Convincing the party irl (who was none the wiser but absolutely hated my character) that Strahd was just trying to get in their heads to split the party will probably be my favorite memory of DND for all time.


  • Why wouldn’t this be fine? You met at 23. It’s not like you were groomed from childhood. Strangers on the Internet cannot validate your relationship with this man. Only you know the details that can inform the decision you have made to befriend him.

    Please consider how much credence you give to the opinions of others, especially considering that you feel as though your friendship shouldn’t exist at times for absolute nonsense reasons.

    Wait a minute. Did I just convince you it’s all fine? Don’t listen to me. I know nothing. Stop listening to strangers about things they don’t understand and think for yourself. You got this.
