I'm trans and the name I chose is based off an old username of mine because I got more used to people calling me that.

Come to think of it a lot of my trans friends did something similar.

Not necessarily. Nonbinary covers a broad range of gender identities that don't all exclusively use they/them.

I didn't think that was a real line until I started playing last month and of course that clown would be the one to say it.

I disagree. I'm not much of a Fallout fan, but I picked up New Vegas for the first time because of the show, installed the Viva New Vegas mods mentioned in another comment, and this game absolutely fucking rules.

Changing the url to sh.reddit.com lets you get around it. Been using that when I've needed to look up a reddit thread at work.

In the last couple weeks, I've noticed a sudden and dramatic shift in tone with how Biden is talked about on Lemmy as well as other corners of the internet I lurk on(e.g. this comment section). Before, it seemed like the general opinion was "he's nowhere close to my 1st choice, but the alternative is Trump." And now I feel like people are a lot quicker to jump to his defense and treat him like one of the better presidents of our lifetime.

I'm gonna admit that I'm a lot less up to date and informed about politics than I should be, but where did this recent pivot on Biden come from?

I do this too. Instead of minis, I tape a drawing onto a Starburst and whoever kills the monster gets to eat the Starburst. I'm gonna have to get something like a donut for the boss fight at the end of the adventure I'm running rn.

That greentext has singlehandedly stopped me from fully hating AI, it still makes me crack a smile to this day.

I'm dumb and don't want to google incel stuff, can someone explain the wasp thing?

For most of act 1, fights felt reasonably difficult. There were only a few points where I had a tpk. However, between early access and now, that last fight felt like a sharp spike in difficulty.

My first time through, it took me and my wife 2 days to finally cheese it. This time around it still took us 3 or 4 reloads and something I'll talk about in the spoiler section before we made it.

It seems like you suddenly need to get good at really strategizing or find some extra wrinkle to make it possible. But I'm curious to hear how other folks managed to get through the fight.

I had no idea until today on our third reload that you could recruit the duergar rebels to fight with you against Nere. Suddenly having an entire army of allies to help out really feels like how the fight was intended. It was only through abusing running away to long rest and have Withers res folks that we managed to take everyone on by ourselves before.

I had always figured there was some weirdness in encounter balance and not that I had missed the way the fight is supposed to play out. If someone here managed to take down Nere, his followers, AND the rebels, please let me know how you pulled that insanity off. I can already tell that Act 2 is going to force me to step up my game on the strategy end of things.
