Is that text an instruction, or a description?

Like is that on the back, telling me to point the front towards the enemy?
Or is this informative, telling me that this IS the front, and that it should be pointed at the enemy instead of me?

I'd assume they'd put text they want the user to read on the side that should be facing the user, but I get the feeling that that's not what they did.

You're thinking of fragile.

Fungible is a brand of prepacked lunches, typically containing crackers, bologna, and cheese.

It didn't have to a URL to an image. It could have been a serial number showing ownership of a thing, etc.

But block chain isn't really necessary for a registry, and in the end the money was in scamming people by selling them urls to images.

I prefer my burgers as red black trees

My thighs touch each other in the wrong way, when I'm sleeping on my side. I need something smooth between them.

Eh, I hate the guy but I don't really care how much of a whiney little hypocrite this makes him, because I already knew all that.

The extent to which I care about this is the extent to which I can use it to point out hypocrisy on the right. Which isn't honestly very much since they don't care about being hypocrites.

Not only are you doing the very same thing right now, you're also precluding the solution to the paradox of tolerance.

In other words, get bent

I'm familiar

It's funny because engineers are known for making simplifications like this, not because the simplification is problematic

 

What is a bread roll if not all crust?
What is toasting, if not making the whole piece of bread more crust-like?

 

When toilets try to save money by reducing the amount of water they use per flush, but you end up having to flush like 3 times 🤬

 

What would you put in your second aid kit?

Be me.
I've started sitting down to pee because it's cleaner.
Stand up after I've finished peeing.
Pull up pants.
Turn around to flush.
There is poop in the toilet.
I forgot that this time I had sat down to poop.

 

In old plays and stories, such as Romeo and Juliet, poisons are depicted as being fairly fast acting.

Would they really have had access to such poison, or was it simply creative license? What would a realistic depiction of a poison of that era be?

 

I'm trying to figure out a ruling for something one of my players wants to do. They're invisible, but they took a couple of seemingly non-attack actions that my gut says should break inviz.

Specifically, they dumped out a flask of oil, and then used a tinderbox to light it on fire. Using a tinderbox isn't an attack, nor is emptying a flask, although they are actions , and the result of lighting something on fire both seems like an attack and something that would dispell inviz.

I know that as DM I can rule it however I want, but I'm fairly inexperienced and I don't wanna go nerfing one of my players tools just because it feels yucky to me personally without understanding the implications.

Is this an attack or is there another justification for breaking inviz that is there some RAW clause I didn't see? Or should this be allowed?

 
 
 

I know I have small hands but c'mon. Flagship phones these days are strait up small tablets, not even what we'd have called on phablets 15 years ago.

I know it's what people buy, but I'm still sad that if I want a phone that small then I have to deal with camera and display a couple gens old
