Maybe it's the brain worm talking because the fluorine would kill it?

That was a wild read. Glad you're still around.

Yeahhhhh my wife was on the fence about getting a CPAP for years. Finally got one and it dramatically helped! Until suddenly she got sick. And stayed sick until she stopped using it. Turns out it was the model you described and little shitty foam bits are not good for your lungs. Needless to say, she has not used any CPAP since. It sucks because even she said it helped, but she's too scared of getting sick again to try a different kind.

Thanks medical capitalism!

Clarifying question because your comment could be interpreted in two ways. Did you mean:

  1. "It all makes sense now because women are hysterical" or
  2. "It all makes sense now because of course the Trump team would bully and slander a woman"

I feel like:

  1. No race should have alignment locking in any direction, because people are people and can do whatever they want. Our goodness or badness isn't determined by our genes.
  2. But, people are who they are because of the society they grow up in and how people treat them. If humans treat goblins like shit because they're goblins, and a goblin turns into a big bad because they want to kill the humans that slaughtered their village, then that villain is interesting for reasons tied to their species.

"No villain in D&D is interesting for reasons tied to their species" sounds very dangerously close to "I'm race-blind" in terms of not acknowledging that different people have different struggles, and racism is often a huge part of those struggles.

NGL I assumed 'Tanning' meant tanning hides, not a tanning booth.

This sounds like a good way to foster vast inequality. You'll have good places where people are included and able to grow up into reasonable people, then you'll have other places where people are utterly ostracized and never even have a chance. This isn't some magical capitalist world where people can just pick up and move to wherever is 'best', there will be people who are stuck. When those people don't have the resources they need, the cycle will just end up perpetuating again, and the inequality builds on itself.

The government has to have the ability to keep rogue states from declaring swathes of the population as second class citizens. Yes, there's the obvious downside of "What happens if" - but we're in this together and we have to try for the only tenable solution. That growing inequality will affect the 'good' areas, even if they put their fingers in their ears and say "lalalalalala not my problem".

A thousand good experiences won't outweigh one bad one, and this meme / discourse proves it. A woman can interact with a thousand good men, and all it takes is one fucking rapist and now all men are evil, all men are untrustworthy, all men are literally less dangerous than a wild rabid animal. There's no point.

Is there a way to GPO this 'feature' off? Worried about some of our users getting confused.
