-There was a maneuver that let me bend bullets mid-flight, allowing me to steal kills from the party from another room in the building -There was a reaction that let me fire a shot when the fight starts but before Initiative, so I would sometimes one-shot random encounters The DM thought he would nerf me by putting us in tight quarters all the time but I learned how to make AP rounds for my fuck-off sniper rifle and just killed everything through walls or even buildings, occasionally. Come to think of it I may have broken his campaign a bit. | ||

When I get ideas for creative - type things normally stuff just flows. It means I'll have to sit down and slog through trying to come up with something good.

 Makes me almost cry because 1. they are so fucking good at RP'ing, and 2. It's like watching MVP Season Steph Highlight videos, and realizing the highest level of play you'll reach is pickup games at the park/LA Fitness. edit: I don't know much about Shadowrun except I played Hong Kong, and I hear there's a fuckton of dice rolling involved. | ||

It seems much more gray than the black and white "raped 14 y/o" allegations which have been hitting other people. Also + Show Spoiler + https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jY3FiaK4GG4 Not really. Jacking it in front of people without their consent is not rape but it's still sexual assault. In terms of "corporations do not want to be associated with you" it's pretty much the same thing. | ||

There seem to be a lot of conflicting stories going around. + Show Spoiler + Thinking he was joking (that's exactly the kind of thing this guy would say), the women gave a facetious thumbs up. He wasn't joking. http://gawker.com/5894527/which-beloved-comedian-likes-to-force-female-comics-to-watch-him-jerk-off+ Show Spoiler + During Ms. Goodman and Ms. Wolov’s surreal visit to Louis C.K.’s Aspen hotel room, they said they were holding onto each other, screaming and laughing in shock, as Louis C.K. masturbated in a chair. “We were paralyzed,” Ms. Goodman said. After he ejaculated on his stomach, they said, they fled. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/09/arts/television/louis-ck-sexual-misconduct.html?smid=tw-share But it sounds they said yes when he asked, said assuming it was a joke, then were too shocked to say anything after that. And all the other allegations were considerably less bad than that one. On one hand he's in a field where public perception is huge in terms of career viability, but on the other he's always been pretty open about the fact that he was kind of a dick with plenty of issues. So maybe assuming nothing worse comes out, he could be one of the few who could actually survive something like this in the long term. There won't be much of hollywood left in 2018 at this rate >. Just waiting on one of the marvel or starwars franchise stars or something to go down next. | ||

Even just convictions causes problems. because people get bullied or are afraid to come out and press charges against powerful or wealthy people, and statute of limitations can be up for that sort of thing. The allegation, with evidence to prove, should be what disqualified folk, not a justice system that favors the wealthy and powerful. I mean look at O'reilly's contract. he wasnt allowed to be fired for sexual harassment BY CONTRACT unless a court ruled him guilty. so any lawsuit with evidence gets settled and he just pays a portion of his salary to his victims and keeps on abusing with no repercussions. | ||

The flipside is a culture where it's seen as acceptable for potentially false allegations to completely end someone's career before they're even allowed to respond. The internet as a construct is very good at witch hunts, and very bad at the whole "innocent until proven guilty" thing. There was some drama in the overwatch community recently where a girl publicly accused a guy who works as a team manager of sexual assualt some time in the past, and the resulting shitstorm had him fired from his organisation before he even got to respond. Last I saw, he was pursuing legal action and his lawyers had advised him not to comment online, so not sure how that ended. | ||

There's a pretty huge difference between one isolated incident and numerous allegations that span years coupled with basically the whole industry coming out with "Yeah we knew that was happening and we didn't want to say anything." People do get falsely accused of these things it's true, and that does hurt people. But people doing them and nobody speaking up happens much more often. | ||

This whole "guilty until proven innocent" is absolutely ridiculous. Do you genuinely think that there aren't opportunists trying to capitalise on the situation to make some money? Unless people provide actual proof your allegations shouldn't be taken seriously. If the court is biased you can use the internet so it's not an excuse. Literally "AMA on reddit with proof" and you will get it out there. I guess people might realise why Pence does the whole "no alone time with women" thing xd. | ||
