    BNakagawa got a reaction from David Blue in Is Hero still your "go-to" rpg system?   
    Typically yes. Hero presents a language for detailed character design and once you have the hang of it, learning a new language every time you want to design a new character seems like a lot of wasted effort.
     
    On the other hand, the number of people that have fluency in said language are diminishing...

    The king is dead. Long Live The King.
     
    Welcome to the first win of the Brock Purdy Era.
     
    If you watch the game in slow motion, I think you can actually see Purdy absorbing Brady's quickening.

    The instantaneous rebuttal to any republican sniping at Biden over failing to release Paul Whelan is to ask why 45 failed to arrange his release, especially given how much of Putin's ass he was willing to kiss.

    My assumption has been that 45 announced the troop withdraw order in order to leave a poison pill that, if he won the election, he could retract, but if he didn't, would punish Biden.

    I think 45 has a solid business model moving forward. All he has to do is demand that any GOP candidate send him money or he will endorse them.

    it's hard to take any Trump supporter seriously. If they can fall for that con, what else are they capable of falling for?
     
    If they didn't fall for the con and actually support him and his 'brand', then it's even worse...

    There is a nonzero chance that what landed in Poland is a Ukranian air defense missile fired to intercept a russian cruise missile that missed.
     
    Complicating matters is the fact that Ukraine employs a number of anti aircraft missiles manufactured by russia, so figuring out whose fault it was is going to be extremely tricky.
     
    Complicating things even further, russians have been resorting to using anti aircraft missiles (S300s for example) in land attack missions due to lack of supplies of higher grade cruise missiles.
     
    So figuring out exactly what happened is going to be tricky. Hopefully somebody has satellite or radar tracking data that can be checked to figure out where these missiles came from.
     
    Also, there are fires burning in Belgorod Oblast, apparently due to a misfiring russian missile(s) that failed to go where they were aimed and came down in russian territory. This is not the first time this has happened there.

    I am pleased to find that pretty much all of the CA propositions went the way I was hoping. Two propositions legalizing online betting were rejected, flavored tobacco ban was upheld, Lyft's end run around the lawmaking process got nixed, etc. The CA rules about revealing funding supports for propositions pretty much gives me all the information I need to see who is paying for these things, and it's good to see that most of CA is seeing it, too. 
     
    I think that making the funding transparent would dramatically alter politics in the rest of the country, if only it was implemented.

    At first I wanted Herschel Walker tested for CTE. Now, I want Georgia republican voters tested for CTE.
     
    Thankfully, the runoff matters a bit less, but I still want Warnock to win. Walker just shows how bad the GOP is at attracting quality candidates and how completely partisan and entirely lacking in principles and objectivity the republican voter base is there.
