This owl dares you to see it.

He's just having a bad feather day.

Fingers crossed. Those are bright and lively eyes.

How do they hide their giant bobble head? Amazing cuties. Glad the rescue was successful.

I definitely want any and all AI art to be clearly mentioned. But honestly I'll prefer the real things and it's nice to know that you manage to find such great photos. Definitely appreciate you wading through all the shit to find the gems but absolutely don't burn yourself out. If weird fakes are of interest, maybe a once a week or once a month post with titles like "worst AI shit trying to pass off as real" or something.

Like you said, this one looks like emo candycorn (black stripes) but definitely do declare in title because people have such short attention spans and best not to leave any doubt.

Wait. Those are actual owls in the tree? Not a crappy photoshop? It's crazy what the right angles in photography can do in creating a photo. Reminds me of the perspective tricks they used in Lord of the Rings to film naturally but give the illusion of size differences.

This is a very cool shot and thanks for sharing the photo and photographer's story too. The number of cool things we never see cos we couldn't film it is sad but knowing that even a fraction of it is captured on film is amazing.

All of it sounds really cool and thanks for sharing!

This looks like an old owl man judging you hard.

Just take anyone who speaks a second language and ask them to explain their expertise in the second language. Almost everyone will start sounding stupid trying to do the translation in their head to the second language.

Edit: Just to be clear, I don't think said person is stupid at all. There's just difficulty speaking about a concept you would innately know and have learned in one language and translate it to a second one. Except for all those genius polyglots out there of course.

Hey there, I'm new to PF2E, but not to GMing. Played PF1, shadowrun, star wars, 40k etc. etc.

I've done a bit of Trouble Under Otari just to get used to the system and give the players a base to work out from.

The big campaign I'm running is Abomination Vaults. I got the module on foundry and have skimmed it and will run it.

I have a barbarian, bard, wizard, gunslinger and NPC rogue for the party.

Any suggestions or tips for what's ahead? As mentioned, I haven't run pathfinder before and I'm leaving it to the players to know their class and feats etc. but it'll be nice to know if anyone else who has run this module says what to look out for. My players are all adults and communicative so no hostile shennenigans are expected.

Edit: Any tips for actually running PF2E appreciated too!

Been using Connect as my app of choice. Great work btw.

Requesting that when I refresh the front page, it also brings me back to the top. Right now when I refresh it remembers how far I have scrolled down which means I have to scroll back up to see new posts. Hope it's possible.

Keep up the awesome work.

I like how Pathfinder 2E does it. A 20 brings your result one tier higher. A 1 brings your result one tier lower. With a high enough base expertise, you can still succeed when rolling a 1, just not as awesome as you normally are. And a 20 isn't a guarantee against really strong foes.

So just something that's been on my mind. At my workplace there's an automatic road barrier that lifts up and down when vehicles arrive. However, it's not used for a carpark system when people wave their tickets or something. It just goes up and down when a vehicle shows up.

However, it sometimes goes up for when say a pushcart is being rolled over whereas it wouldn't for a guy pushing a bin.

So tldr, how does an automatic road barrier decide that yes, a vehicle is coming, and therefore opens up?
