Ever played d&d? The number of people who get furious every time they read the 3.5 players handbook because it uses she as default about 50% of the time is hilarious

Hey! I accidently cleared all my notifications, and couldn't find your post again. You responded to me on the other one, and I just wanted to say sorry for never replying. Lol.
The phenomenal mod of @letterboxed@lemmy.world made a post on the subreddit letting us know that they were making a community on here because of the reddit insanity. Came over and joined same day and really haven't looked back since. Lemmy is amazing, and all the best parts of what reddit great, without the bull.
Right‽ Total Bill Murray vibes. Plus they worked together on Scrooged.
Clearly, there are 5 lights. I don't know how you could be so wrong about this.
Lotta good answers here, but I present for the academy's consideration: Carol Kane.
You hardly need to, it's obvious.
On technicality I am a mod of the letterboxed (nyt game) community, but only because our actual mod added me because I was more well versed with lemmy at that point. She has done everything, I have done literally nothing.
Honestly, as of right now, not really. I gots the brain fog. But azure scapegoat I think is one decent YouTuber. Noncompete may have a video on Cuba, and I believe prof. Richard Wolff does as well.
I'm not a Marxist, though, so my knowledge of state socialism is cursory other than theory. I'm an anarcho-communist, and my knowledge and interests lie more towards that direction.
This isn't on housing (I really can't remember which video is good on that topic, but I know it's a findable thing), but how elections work in Cuba. Worth watching: https://youtu.be/2aMsi-A56ds?si=SvD6sZeN5L5vvni9
I will say, one of the things to note about state socialist countries, even if you disagree with them, is they're often derided for being authoritarian (and IMHO, they are), but they're always less authoritarian than what came before. The USSR had problems, yeah, but it was leaps and bounds better than czarist Russia. Cuba has some issues, but compared to the open air slave-run casino it was before the revolution, it's a damn sight better. And if you compare it to it's neighbors, it's doing amazingly well, even with the insane embargo. Just something to think about, democracy (in the sense of actual control by the people) has increased in each society that has gone that route. Imagine, then, what a place like the US, with our big talk democratic ideals would look like if it did. Just food for thought.
I was on the major forum for a particular book series for a decade. I'm still good friends with several of the people I met there. It was an amazing experience, and it makes me sad that they're not the same now.
Oh I see it now, thank you!
They+all=th'all? Adding this to my lexicon. Y'all is sacred to me, being from the south. Th'all shall be canonized along with it.
Absolutely if anyone has a problem with that, th'all can go fuck themselves.
