Bay 12 Games Forum

Most success I've had over the years is with Troll Berserkers / Healers / Dauros Monks, but I'm quite sure this game is actually supposed to be more of a spellcasting thing than a melee bumping thing.

Certainly haven't won any, but I would say ever since the weapon junk came in melee's more of a thing, you just still don't want to be bumping anything

Gonna' have to see if I can figure out how to shoot faster, sooner or later. Try for a proper archer build, see how (un)viable it is. 'Till then bardiches and whatnot are pretty darn great even if you're primarily spell casting. Just wish I could remember to figure out how to slave the swing weapon key to the main spellcast one so you don't have to hold two buttons at a time to swing and cast simultaneously...

Time Eater's a bastard, through and through

Still, it's interesting trying to finagle a win out of it when you're running a hard draw/mill deck and meet senior 12 step interrupt. Poor shiv decks, ehehe.

Eh, impeachment would almost certainly depend on the 2018 elections. GOP's already thoroughly proven they don't give a single shit what trump does, little bit of foreign power election rigging would just have them screaming the dems did it to so it's okay, or some crap. Especially if they couldn't find any proof of it.

Duties carried out before would be as valid as they were previously, though, far as I'm aware. More likely to be overturned, probably, but most of it would still be there. The U.S. doesn't really have mechanisms in place to invalidate an election or blanket null an elected official's decisions, even one that shouldn't have been elected.

In the case of impeachment, trump would be removed, the chain of succession would go to whoever's next (that doesn't also get caught up in the impeachment process, anyway), and any mess cleaning would mostly fall on the successor (immediate or after next election) and congress. And the various departments and whatnot if they get unfettered from whatever worthless sacks of flesh trump saddled them with, I guess.

This reminds me of the discussions we used to have in high school about how we should ban all writing implements because they can be used as weapons.

Which is as silly stupid as it always is, because it's a hell of a lot harder to kill someone or yourself with your average pen or pencil than it is with a gun. Like, drawing on yourself is hella' unlikely to cause you to bleed out. Shooting yourself in the foot is a decent way to lose a foot and possibly too much of your bleedy stuff.

Unfortunately, when it comes to firearms it's specifically because of ease of use and deadliness that it contributes so much/disproportionately to violence or suicide. Consistently people find slowing the purchase process or removing guns from the situation helps mitigate violence or suicide (attempts) at rates in the same ballpark as anything in the psychological or sociology range of junk, due in no small part because the recommendation from either of those likes to include things like "don't have things it's easy to kill people with in close vicinity of people who may be inclined to hurt themselves or others, seriously, holy shit why are we having to say this". Even when it doesn't reduce rates of violence or suicide attempts, more people survive the incidents. Reducing access to purpose built murder weapons is, in fact, one of the correct ways to cut down on the amount of people that die.

Oddly enough, having a device purpose built for killing on hand (or near enough you can easily get to it while pissed off) enables greater degrees of killing. You'd think that'd be as stupid obvious as a designated driver not letting their drunk compatriots hold the keys or something, but apparently it's not.

Mildly interesting trick I'm too tired to hunt up links for, but of similar note there's apparently parts of cali that see a spike in gun violence or deaths or summat when one its neighbouring states (though I forget exactly which one) have gun shows :V

Huh. Cinnamon toast... shreds. Just noticed they were selling them a few days ago, finally opened the box and realized what they were today. Shredded wheat, absolutely slathered inside and out with cinnamon and sugar. It. Kinda' defeats the point of shredded wheat, really...

... on the other hand, they're also kinda' friggin' delicious. Like heavier cinnamon toast crunch things, with more sugar per individual square/rectangle thing, and a more... gradual, I guess, chewing experience. Couldn't tell what it was until I actually bit into it, though. Looked and felt like a heavier version of the usual, and then your teeth get to it and it's the spindly shreddy bits, surprise!

Look siru, just 'cause poh can't remember the last three months and thought it was still november is no reason to rub it in.

... especially if they've been dumpster diving recently, I guess. Probably good idea to hold off on contact until after a shower or somethin'.

Gratzi on the monitor, though. It a newer one or one of the good ol' half-ton CRT stalwarts?

Oh, you can use load, too, but you usually clarify a load of what. Or go bucketload or somethin' when dealing with liquids. Otherwise you may trip over euphemisms loitering in the middle of the conversation road.
