That’s an ugly-ass human bard.

Very interesting! I am curious how modern populations would show up if tested by this method.

Yeah I figured the original article might have more meat but this one is written in a misleading way…

But I didn’t find that statement in the original paper either. It seems to be all about this more recent grave.

1500 years ago was long after dogs were domesticated…

I feel like I remember seeing the first two tweets without the third one so those might be real.

To some extent but given the large number of cells in your body it does raise questions of whether the effort required to confidently hit every infected cell is safe or worthwhile.

But I like homebrewing myself.

Water is more of a local issue. In many places overall water use is kind of a pointless metric to seek to minimize. It completely depends on your supply of water and what the effects of using it are.

Honestly I personally think that most rhetoric around water conservation, even from environmentalists, is completely misinformed and wrongheaded. But it’s a very complex topic so I guess I can’t blame people too much.

Absolutely. Urban agriculture is still great. The takeaway here is probably mostly that infrastructure has a high carbon cost so we should think about how that cost can be reduced or eliminated in urban ag. If we can do that then it will outperform more widely.

It’s wild some of the creative settings they come up with in fantasy!

Congratulations! Presented to: Wizard For: Smugly using the intelligence you lucked into from birth to cast magic you pretend you earned.

Hypnotic pattern is usually better. Maybe slightly more situational depending on your DM and monster intelligence.

Well maybe the extradimensional space comes with air. But I never thought about that before haha.

I always interpreted the suffocation to be only while the bag is closed. It doesn’t make much sense if physical objects can enter the bag but not air. Why not?

I think the screams would be muffled but still audible. Until the bag is closed, the extradimensional space inside is connected to the outside world. However, since sound can only escape from the opening and not the sides of the bag, I would rule that it is much quieter, granting disadvantage on checks to hear the scream.

I like to let people roll. The result may determine the consequences of failure.

What is this word planning?

Honestly if this doesn’t happen I would consider finding another group. I’ve tried so hard to get this going in my original group but people just won’t put in the work. Kind of kills my interest in running for them. But my other group we’ve got a good rotation going so when I felt the itch to run something I prioritize them because I know they’re willing to put energy in the game. If the other one peters out then it wasn’t meant to be.
