    "Can you please stop being a tremendously dangerous douchebag, Tucker?", Starlord asked politely, but firmly.

    Tucker Carlson Condemned After Urging Viewers To Harass Strangers Wearing Masks
     
    “They’re the aggressors,” Carlson said of people who wear masks during the segment. “It’s our job to brush them back and restore the society we were born in. So the next time you see someone in a mask on the sidewalk or on the bike path, do not hesitate. Ask politely but firmly, ‘Would you please take off your mask? Science shows there is no reason for you to be wearing it. Your mask is making me uncomfortable.’”

    I checked the news last night and it was full of stories about crematoriums and funeral pyres running nonstop in India, and I had to stop looking. Oh, and oxygen shortages there too, which aren’t helping. 
     
    Last I checked the case trajectory for India looked like it had gone asymptotic.

    The worst thing about clerical domains is it encourages "portfolio" gods. God of Something, rather than God of Somewhere.
     
    The God of Somewhere might be a Sun God, for example, but they are also likely to have a far more general role, perhaps in conjunction with a small pantheon.

    Oh, and possibly the form of subclasses I like least is clerical domains. Sure, it's nice to give divine spellcasters some variety. Makes sense that gods would grant different powers to their mortal representatives. It's just... Domains lock in what sort of gods can exist. Again, many of the published choices are sensible: IRL one can find many examples of deities who might be treated as Knowledge Gods, Life Gods, Nature Gods, or whatever. But there are also plenty of gods that don't fit into easily gameable concepts. Like, what's the domain for the Kitchen God? Or Old Man's World Creation Superdraft god, Inscissivus? The God of Cutting might be shoehorned in under the War Domain because he's the god of blades -- but he's the god of a lot more forms of cutting, that aren't particularly martial. If one starts with a list of standard domains, one is less likely to engage in really creative theology/mythology.

    Mentioned on reddit that there's no mechanics to balance a handicapped character in D&D 5e ( e.g. Elric, Raistlin, Tyrion, Bran, Zatoichi, etc.)  They are not happy.  :D
