Not to dissect the frog on the complaining-about-dissecting-the-frog post, but my interpretation was that those sorts of responses are less on the admonishing OP or their friends for having fun shenanigans, and more of as a heads-up to other players reading it why their DM might not allow the same shenanigans if they were to do similarly in their game. Plenty of folks on here are not 100% versed on every D&D rule out there, and I think it’s okay to make informative comments that help people learn the game better.

So for him it totally tracks to be married to a type of person that you hate.

Women, for example

She’s a Stan Shunpike- radicalized offscreen, leaving everyone else confused

Kinda rude to just comment on her body like that- she’s been open about being diabetic since Community was originally filming. She’s been working on her health way before ozempic was on the market.

Just curious, but why is your description of an entirely different incident than the headline?

And for those of you who only know temperatures based on brewing tea or coffee:

123F: Probably insufficient for even fairly delicate teas. You could probably make “sun tea” at this temperature by leaving tea in room temperature water to be heated by the sun, but this is not recommended as anything below ~130F is considered the danger zone for bacterial growth.

170F: This is the appropriate temperature for delicate or green teas to preserve flavor, antioxidants, and prevent bitterness.

200F: An acceptable temperature below boiling (212F) for black teas and coffee where overextraction is minimal.

109F: Unacceptable for tea brewing, barely above body temperature.

Biden isn’t running for office, so I don’t see how that would apply. This is just a tantrum from someone used to the media following him around as the most interesting thing, and now that he’s not, he’s pissed.

Yeah, but are they paying any of their own money to take care of those kids for two decades?

Yes. Taxes. People without kids still pay taxes for things like education, meal programs, etc. People with kids get a tax break to compensate for the cost of raising kids. You’re asking for something already built into how we support parents and children in America.

Sigh, ACLU, is this really that high a priority in the list of rights we need to fight for right now? Really?

Also, am I missing something, or wouldn’t these arguments fall apart under the lens of slander? If you make a sufficiently convincing AI replica that is indistinguishable from reality of someone’s face and/or voice, and use it to say untrue things about them, how is that speech materially different from directly saying “So-and-so said x” when they didn’t? Or worse, making videos of them doing something terrible, or out of character, or even mundane? If that is speech sufficient to be potentially covered by the first amendment, it is slander imo. Even parody has to be somewhat distinct from reality to not be slander/libel, why would this be different?
