Hi nerds, I have heard many times that dnd players should switch to Pathfinder. I've played DND 5e for about five years and have come to dislike some things about it.

So I looked at Pathfinder, only the first couple of sections of the rulebook, and it looks like character creation is a lot more limited then 5e. Languages, ability scores, lots of proficiencies are based on race, and for some reason races can only learn certain limited languages. I saw that there seems to be a lot of choices for class abilities, which is cool, but i dont like the way races are handled.

The main thing I want to change about DND is that I think combat sucks. There are no interesting decisions to make beyond attacking the enemy. Progress is made by making a number go down, and the fight is exactly the same until the number hits 0. Healing is done completely after an 8 hour rest, so fights feel very inconsequential.

Does Pathfinder have a much better combat system? That's the main thing I want to get out of this. I don't have time to read it all rn

Everyday I send my application to the hvac place I wanna work at, I'll do it as a ritual at this point. I don't know if they hiring or just don't care but I have to keep going. In the mean time I'll keep studying and keeping my spirits up.

Huh, apparently there's some twitter groypers that think China is committing genocide against the Uighur's, and that it's a good thing because most Uighur's are brown/muslim.

I have to go to work but i hadnt been able to sleep at all

It’s the third week of this, why’s it more unbearable now?

got a hate comment on one of my YouTube videos

I remember hearing once that we can get a feel for something by looking at it and visualizing licking it and yeah I think that's pretty accurate but if fails to contend I can't do this for the sun. I can't get a good feel on what the sun feels like and this is upsetting me greatly

sorry i am late. quick update on my life:

same thing. i still have the job. i was insulted for working slow when i am waiting for them to help me. and if i try to do things on my own i fear breaking everything. also the systems slow down to hell and back and if i try to get calls i only get shouted at i hate my life i wish all this never happened

the first month was nice, people took turns to do calls and emails. every morning we talked. was nice. until production came along

i hate my life i wish all this never happened

when will i get paid

edit: i am looking for new jobs as we speak. i hope i can also move out so that my family won't bother me ever again and i can get therapy and fix myself to become the betterest person than the person y'all know me as.

attempted to find python junior dev (but i'd need to relearn python lol, big rusty), romanian to english translation and the most probable of all: linux sysadmin. my friends think i am a linux wizard or something, and that job could be fine i guess

Your nuance is liberal, mine is materialist. Ipso facto get owned.

Everything does 2 damage in silksong because its a rushed game

Sometimes nostalgia is justified, sometimes the past was just better. Like for example I had pizza yesterday.

Painting ladders and stairs yellow as my contribution in the War Against Gamers

They should make another Ecco the Dolphin and they should make it just as melancholy and weird and have aliens and shit

I can't sustain it All in my head You stay inside I can feel it It's hard for me to know To just let it be Suddenly everything seems to open up We keep running in circles so why dont you stop?

cant help but feel this song is about

Jury duty update:

It fucking sucks. Everything about this is dehumanizing. The process, just… everything. It might be better in other states/countries. Not here. I’d have to give a minute by minute, which I fucking could if I didn’t have a better use for time since it’s ETCHED THE FUCK IN. The courts in place county are that fucking bad.

Best part: we had to stay late. We already had a late lunch break. It was 10 minutes to the advertised release. The last voredurr or however the fuck it’s spelled was about to start. The fucking judge gives a 10 minute speech about thankful she is and she aspires to respect our time. This was followed by a one page essay of content about how our system is special, covid ruined it because it needs the human touch, AI glazing, and, of course, how important the individual jurors are. Immediately followed by calling the audience the jury box before apologizing and correcting herself. Fake fucking shit. Tie me to a Molotov and throw me at place county courthouse.

I haven’t even had a chance to try and get on a good case to nullify. The first was an open and shut murder case I knew about already which gave me an out. That dude deserves a fair trial even though he totally did it, so I was honest.

Second case: DV and I had to be honest about my experiences and inability to be impartial because that shit would be triggering af.

Bonus fuckery: my boss fucking lied when he said he would pay me. He meant he would give me hours around the jury hours. Ihave to show up again tomorrow. I won’t make enough tomorrow unless I’m up at the ass crack of dawn or stay until early morning after. Yay. I’m only losing 7/8ths of my take home per day this shit goes on. Or would be at least if I didn’t have to do a full day of a system designed by Kafka’s strongest soldier followed by a shift to make rent.

No shit, I straight up told the initial judge doing eligibility that I am censored medical condition and can’t afford my meds at the moment. Her response? I have many lawyers who take the same meds, it doesn’t actually impact your judgement. What the actual fuck. They fixed the problem of “nobody worth being a juror escapes it” by not exempting anyone except for one dude who was 75 and a stay at home dad with no childcare alternatives. They didn’t even exempt the self-employed (no employees, just a worker being his own boss) boat mechanic who said he would be financially ruined by a week without work. The initial pool was at least 300. They didn’t even exempt the jehovas witness who his faith forbid him from judging anyone. So much for religious freedom if it doesn’t oppress anybody.

I’m genuinely questioning my sectarian tendencies at this point. Y’all have a point I should have considered in a fairer manner. Taking recs for anything anarchist about court systems so I can hopefully have a paper copy to bring into court and read since nO PhOnEs oR E-rEaDeRs before this fucking week ends.

Can't sleep tonight, today has been so stressful

This youtuber should stop doing jokes in this Hollow Knight lore video. I don't want to hear these jokes.

i wish some old users were still here, I kinda want to talk with one of them

how white people feel after saying they're neither left nor right wing but a secret uncategorizable third thing somewhere in the middle of the two (being a nazi)
