This is exactly the kind of challenge I love. How can Konsi do all the good she wants to do without damaging the church's reputation? Does she need to become a bit of a revolutionary, change the status quo to improve the lives of those in need? If she does, the voices saying her church is interfering in the government will only get stronger, so it's a fight for public opinion. And how far do her funds actually go when she's working on the scale of the landed gentry? What kind of adventurer powers can help in a situation like this? Is the government secretly run by Mindflayers? There's only one way to find out
"I constantly miss small details and need to quintuple check everything do."
This one is the opposite for me. I'm great at detail work. The stuff I miss is the glaringly obvious giant thing right in front of me.
I went to a wedding this weekend, and bought four drinks from the bar before I noticed half of the bartop was covered in two liter pop bottles I could have been pouring drinks from for free the whole time...
Conservatives in the US shout all kinds of things, because the words they use don't have any meaning. They don't understand what communism actually is, just that they're supposed to be afraid of it.
That's different from the left pointing out that the right is actually using fascists strategies (like stripping words of their meaning), and adopting fascist policies.
It's honestly amazing. Art is so much a part of what we are, that it's common and expected for someone to have written a coherent and insightful metaphor for their own life into their role in a fun make believe game.
But also, don't talk to me, or my emotionally stunted, queer-coded, dissatisfied accountant, who quit his job to take up a life of crime, ever again!
I don't think what they were planning is actually a crime.
From the excerpt from the article
News of his firing came as two Democratic state representatives pressed the agency about who was involved in drawing up plans that appeared to include no-bid contracts destined for mysteriously pre-chosen developers outside the requirements of Florida law.
Can't calculate the net yet, since we don't know the gross. He has the capability to cause massive damage with the power he wields. It's already clear that he's incapable of providing an unbiased platform. It needs to belong to the people or it can never be trusted
Yeah, Trucks Munched, and it gives the number this year, and since the bridge was built next to it. Last I saw, we're up to 19, but that was last week lol
Do a little research in advance to answer one of those questions yourself, and then send a message with that, and the rest of the questions. It takes pressure off the next person to send a message, since you've already done 1/4 of the planning, they won't feel like they're going to end up "in charge". And once one person responds, it'll flow more naturally into a conversation, as the stakes are lower for each new person joining in.
Something like, "It sounds like they don't take reservations. We wanna show up as we can, or meet up first?"
Has the Olympics gone too far?
