...never heard that specifically but fourty years ago my parents ambushed me with their pastor telling me that i'd go to hell for becoming vegetarian; something about god creating animals for exploitation and to reject that was forsaking his will...

...then they tackled me to the ground, pried my jaws open, and shoved chunks of chicken down my throat: nice people...

...i give everyone i work with stickers when they do a good job, and they all go crazy for them: interns, bosses, the lot!..

...our CEO rolled his eyes at first and said they were patronising, then the entire staff catcalled him over it, so he changed his mind and loves getting stickers now, too...

...when i was growing up, my well-meaning parents pulled me aside to express their concern over a jewish friend dating a black friend; aghast at their comment, i immediately confronted them over its apparent racism, and they replied that they had nothing against it personally, but were instead concerned about what other people might think...

...they're f*cking balls-out fascists fourty years later, and i want no part of them in my life...

...to anyone tempted to compromise their own best interests on behalf of what other people might think: don't give them that kind of power over you, or they'll drag you down in it...

...christians are f*cking evil and any good folks still riding that train need to debark and rebrand lest the be dragged into a hell of their own making...

...i need a really good bag for about eighty chessex-style dice: any better-suited options out there than the crown royal standard?..

...how would you characterise dominate person cast with indefinite duration?..

...upcasting dominate person at eighth level can maintain up to eight hours with concentration, so i'd be inclined to consider twenty-four hours duration equivalent to a ninth-level spell, but perhaps i'm under-gauging the difference in power between eighth and ninth-level spells?..

...regardless, in this particular case it was cast with indefinite duration plus disadvantage on the saving throw against a hostile player character, which i'd like to translate into mechanical terms: maybe a ninth-level casting with heightened metamagic plus silvery barbs?..

...i'm playing with a DM who has a poor grasp of fifth-edition's mechanical balance and i'd like to help him understand just how adversarial his homebrew and houserule tendencies are leaning, especially for early tier-two gameplay...
