...the sad part is that perhaps half those MAGAs aren't necessarily bad people, but they're so profoundly indoctrinated by its disinformation sphere that they legitimately believe their support serves a greater good...

...the other half are outright evil, though...

...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?..
