    Exactly we don’t need these arbitrary identities separating us. Patriotism leads to Nationalism. It reinforces in-group and out-group mentality that can be readily co-opted by the right wing to manipulate people into fearing their fellow working class.

    It also blinds people to the flaws of the country they identify with; it causes people to become defensive when it is rightfully criticized by taking it as a personal attack on their identity.








  • OP’s example is probably some custom adhesive vinyl prints. Probably multiple prints put together even. They could have access to their own large scale vinyl printer somehow, like through a tool library or makerspace.

    Once printed, just keep em in tubes, get to the location during some dead hours, and slap em up. Don’t need to be perfect, just needs to be good enough to pass a glance.

    Wouldn’t take but a few seconds, maybe a minute for the larger one. If ya look the part even (safety vest and blue jeans or something similar) then most won’t look at you twice to notice what you’re doing. Just act with confidence and you’re usually golden.



  • Unequivocally worse.

    Trump and his ilk want fascism, because it gives the capitalist class the most control over the people and our society. A smarter Trump would not only be instilling fascism but would be doing so in such a way that could actually win people over by being conniving and coercive to regular folk instead of just being a loud mouth bigot that strokes the egos of the lowest common denominator in American culture.


  • your first paragraph is literally the book rules for spell components. You either have a focus/components pouch for mundane components and anything with a gold amount needs to be spent to cast.

    Very few spells actually have a costly material component for it to ever come up anyway.

    Can’t hide somatic or verbal components without being a Sorcerer for the meta magic though. Otherwise you’re literally undermining one of the key features of that class.

    Spell components exist literally for the reason stated at the end: so the DM can keep in check the power of the spellcaster as needed for the scenario by limiting what spells are available to be cast.

    Real. There was a wreck one day and it kicked over a caution sign. The sign was left after the wreck was cleared and I happened to be walking home from school, so I picked it up and carried it home to take the sign off and put it up in my room or some other dumb teenage idea. That fucker was heavy.
