give it to me straight. im a skid.

Dear R and T
Boy, did you get your wires crossed.
I am the one who lives across from your person.
None of my letters concerned you.
You ruined lives for nothing.
Sadly, you are the type to never acknowledge your mistakes nor apologise.
Hopefully my lost friends who may have fallen prey to your ruse will reach out to me - I will gladly refer your details their way.
Should have told the truth when I gave you the chance.
Love from someone who isn’t K.

Preferably new or lightly used. Please comment before pming asking price. Have more creds over at hardwareswap and mechmarket.
Thanks!

Yarp, it's this game again. Please, READ THE ENTIRE POST BEFORE YOU APPLY, thank you
For decades, the kingdoms of Narvalesh and Gwyndeth have been at odds, using proxies in their wars to wipe one another out. Narvalesh worships Law, and the men of Gwyndet praise the gods of Chaos, leading to many holy wars, which eventually crippled both nations. For now.
The margravate of Bronzestone has recently had an idea to break the stalemate over the borderlands known as the Dagger Vale. Employing adventurers to advance the cause of the kingdom and finally beat back the kingdom of Gwyndeth. However, earl Glandyth of Kraev, a cruel champion of Chaos, has also had the same idea... Two adventuring parties, two nations, one goal: Victory.
Players Wanted: 2 for the Law Party (18+ and must know the basics of 5th edition D&D, 6 spots filled already, lost some players due to conflicting styles)
Time & Day: 9 pm GMT+3 (1 pm CST), Wednesdays (alternating biweekly between groups)
Theme; Exploration & wilderness adventuring, dungeon crawling, intrigue, sword & sorcery
Current level 1
Platforms: Discord and Roll20
The players are divided into two groups, and each group plays biweekly, alternating between the group playing for Bronzestone and the group playing for Kraev. Note that this is NOT A WEST MARCHES game, this is very much a story driven sandbox game, and in no way functions like a West Marches.
There is some saucy content (NSFW) possibilities, but any raunchy stuff is to be faded to black or performed in the dedicated NSFW channels. This is purely optional, by the way, I just wanna make that clear.
The house rules and homebrew is available on the Discord server, where you shall be invited upon approval. For the time being, here are the most immediate rules:

1. No Artificers or anything uber magical, like soul knives, this is a sword and sorcery campaign, I want to maintain integrity. Additionally no arcane archers, rune knights, psi warriors, soul knives, gloomstalkers, nothing like that
2. No unlisted races (unless you make a reeeeaaaally convincing case)
3. No guns, or gunpowder, or wacky inventions

To apply, DM me at ViktorD20#4188
Hope to hear from you soon :)

Hello
I’m thinking up a build that focusses on the Great Runic Blade is the primary weapon. I’ll spend a breakthrough to get the improved version
I’m struggling to pick the other two classes.
Will I need philosopher for the mana regen, with none of its elemental skills being used?
Will I need warrior monk for the stamina boost, even though I can’t benefit from the discipline boon with a fully ethereal weapon?
Wild Hunter seems like a good pick because the beserk boon would help and I could use the skills without needing discipline.
Advice needed and will be appreciated, thank you!

According to The Vegan Society:
"Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals."

1. Ethics

1.1 Sentience of Animals

I care about other human beings because I know that they are having a subjective experience. I know that, like me, they can be happy, anxious, angry or upset. I generally don't want them to die (outside of euthanasia), both because of the pain involved and because their subjective experience will end, precluding further happiness. Their subjective experience is also why I treat them with respect them as individuals, such as seeking their consent for sex and leaving them free from arbitrary physical pain and mental abuse. Our society has enshrined these concepts into legal rights, but like me, I doubt your appreciation for these rights stems from their legality, but rather because of their effect (their benefit) on us as people.
Many non-human animals also seem to be having subjective experiences, and care for one another just like humans do. It's easy to find videos of vertebrates playing with one another, showing concern, or grieving loss. Humans have understood that animals are sentient for centuries. We've come to the point that laws are being passed acknowledging that fact. Even invertebrates can feel pain. In one experiment, fruit flies learned to avoid odours associated with electric shocks. In another, they were given an analgesic which let them pass through a heated tube, which they had previously avoided. Some invertebrates show hallmarks of emotional states, such as honeybees, which can develop a pessimistic cognitive bias.
If you've had pets, you know that they have a personality. My old cat was lazy but friendly. My current cat is inquisitive and playful. In the sense that they have a personality, they are persons. Animals are people. Most of us learn not to arbitrarily hurt other people for our own whims, and when we find out we have hurt someone, we feel shame and guilt. We should be vegan for the same reason we shouldn't kill and eat human beings: all sentient animals, including humans, are having a subjective experience and can feel pain, enjoy happiness and fear death. Ending that subjective experience is wrong. Intentionally hurting that sentient being is wrong. Paying someone else to do it for you doesn't make it better.

1.2 The Brutalisation of Society

There are about 8 billion human beings on the planet. Every year, our society breeds, exploits and kills about 70 billion land animals. The number of marine animals isn't tracked (it's measured by weight - 100 billion tons per year), but it's likely in the trillions. Those are animals that are sexually assaulted to cause them to reproduce, kept in horrendous conditions, and then gased to death or stabbed in the throat or thrown on a conveyor belt and blended with a macerator.
It's hard to quantify what this system does to humans. We know abusing animals is a predictor of anti-social personality disorder. Dehumanising opponents and subaltern peoples by comparing them to animals has a long history in racist propaganda, and especially in war propaganda. The hierarchies of nation, race and gender are complemented by the hierarchy of species. If humans were more compassionate to all kinds of sentient life, I'd hope that murder, racism and war would be more difficult for a normal person to conceive of doing. I think that treating species as a hierarchy, with life at the bottom of that hierarchy treated as a commodity, makes our society more brutal. I want a compassionate society.
To justify the abuse of sentient beings by appealing to the pleasure we get from eating them seems to me like a kind of socially acceptable psychopathy. We can and should do better.

2. Environment

2.1 Greenhouse Gas Emissions

A 2013 study found that animal agriculture is responsible for the emission 7.1 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per year, or 14.5% of human emissions.
A 2021 study increased that estimate to 9.8 gigatonnes, or 21% of human emissions.
This is why the individual emissions figures for animal vs plant foods are so stark, ranging from 60kg of CO2 equivalent for a kilo of beef, down to 300g for a kilo of nuts.
To limit global warming to 1.5 degrees by 2100, humanity needs to reduce its emissions by 45% by 2030, and become net zero by 2050.
Imagine if we achieve this goal by lowering emissions from everything else, but continue to kill and eat animals for our pleasure. That means we will have to find some way to suck carbon and methane out of the air to the tune of 14.5-21% of our current annual emissions (which is projected to increase as China and India increase their wealth and pick up the Standard American Diet). We will need to do this while still dedicating vast quantities of our land to growing crops and pastures for animals to feed on. Currently, 77% of the world's agricultural land is used for animal agriculture. So instead of freeing up that land to grow trees, sucking carbon out of the air, and making our task easier, we would instead choose to make our already hard task even harder.

2.2 Pollution

Runoff from farms (some for animals, others using animal manure as fertiliser) is destroying the ecosystems of many rivers, lakes and coastlines.
I'm sure you've seen aerial and satellite photographs of horrific pigshit lagoons, coloured green and pink from the bacteria growing in them. When the farms flood, such as during hurricanes, that pig slurry spills over and infects whole regions with salmonella and listeria. Of course, even without hurricanes, animal manure is the main source of such bacteria in plant foods.

2.3 Water and Land Use

No food system can overcome the laws of thermodynamics. Feeding plants to an animal will produce fewer calories for humans than eating plants directly (this is called 'trophic levels'). The ratio varies from 3% efficiency for cattle, to 9% for pigs, to 13% for chickens, to 17% for dairy and eggs.
This inefficiency makes the previously mentioned 77% of arable land used for animal agriculture very troubling. 10% of the world was food insecure in 2020, up from 8.4% in 2019. Humanity is still experiencing population growth, so food insecurity will get worse in the future. We need to replace animal food with plant food just to stop people in the global periphery starving to death. Remember that food is a global commodity, so increased demand for soya-fed beef cattle in Brazil means increased costs around the world for beef, soya, and things that could have been grown in place of the soya.
Water resources are already becoming strained, even in developed countries like America, Britain and Germany. Like in the Soviet Union with the Aral Sea, America is actually causing some lakes, like the Great Salt Lake in Utah, to dry up due to agricultural irrigation. Rather than for cotton as with the Aral Sea, this is mostly for the sake of animal feed. 86.6% of irrigated water in Utah goes to alfalfa, pasture land and grass hay. A cloud of toxic dust kicked up from the dry lake bed will eventually envelop Salt Lake City, for the sake of an industry only worth 3% of the state's GDP.
Comparisons of water footprints for animal vs plant foods are gobsmacking, because pastures and feed crops take up so much space. As water resources become more scarce in the future thanks to the depletion of acquifers and changing weather patterns, human civilisation will have to choose either to use its water to produce more efficient plant foods, or eat a luxury that causes needless suffering for all involved.

3. Health

3.1 Carcinogens, Cholesterol and Saturated Fat in Animal Products

In 2015, the World Health Organisation reviewed 800 studies, and concluded that red meat is a Group 2A carcinogen, while processed meat is a Group 1 carcinogen. The cause is things like salts and other preservatives in processed meat, and the heme iron present in all meat, which causes oxidative stress.
Cholesterol and saturated fat from animal foods have been known to cause heart disease for half a century, dating back to studies like the LA Veterans Trial in 1969, and the North Karelia Project in 1972. Heart disease killed 700,000 Americans in 2020, almost twice as many as died from Covid-19.

3.2 Antimicrobial Resistance

A majority of antimicrobials sold globally are fed to livestock, with America using about 80% for this purpose. The UN has declared antimicrobial resistance to be one of the 10 top global public health threats facing humanity, and a major cause of AMR is overuse.

3.3 Zoonotic Spillover

Intensive animal farming has been called a "petri dish for pathogens" with potential to "spark the next pandemic". Pathogens that have recently spilled over from animals to humans include:
1996 and 2013 avian flu
2003 SARS
2009 swine flu
2019 Covid-19,

3.4 Worker Health

Killing a neverending stream of terrified, screaming sentient beings is the stuff of nightmares. After their first kill, slaugherhouse workers report suffering from increased levels of: trauma, intense shock, paranoia, fear, anxiety, guilt, and shame.
Besides wrecking their mental health, it can also wreck their physical health. In 2007, 24 slaugherhouse workers in Minnesota began suffering from an autoimmune disease caused by inhaling aerosolised pig brains. Pig brains were lodged in the workers' lungs. Because pig and human brains are so similar, the workers' immune systems began attacking their own nervous systems.
The psychopathic animal agriculture industry is not beyond exploiting children and even slaves.

🙋 General FAQs

 
Q: What's in the update?
A: Patch notes for patch 1.16.1-f2
Q: Who gets it?
A: Everyone, except those playing Cities: Skylines Remastered (coming to you "late summer")
Q: Can I skip or block the update?
A: Not easily, and it's not worth it as other mods you rely on will inevitably issue updates which target the new code.

Seriously. I picked her back up recently and it's been so frustrating playing her with Jarvan and Veigar being in basically every game. Their respective cages make Lillia's one strength, her movement speed, completely irrelevant. You can be playing 100% perfectly dodging every single skillshot until a Jarvan decides to EQR onto you with exactly zero counterplay. If you don't have flash up, you're just dead. If you do, he can flash after you and then R. Same with Veigar, your only chance is to try to outrun his E during its cast time but if he places it well it's pretty much impossible. In a 1v1 against him it's not too bad since you can use your MS to dodge his W and maybe even Q while in the cage but in the 99% of cases when Veigar is not alone, you're just doomed.
I don't think Lillia is very weak atm, it's just that playing him sucks in 50%+ of games unless you can get your team to ban both of them. And as I'm sure many of you know, there are still so many other champions that are just as frustrating to play against that we'd like to ban instead of a random Jarvan or Veigar.
