Very good article. Thanks for sharing!

Not very anonymous when the list of suspects and list of authors is identical, unless I'm misunderstanding your idea.
I know it's hard to believe, but real people work at corporations, and some are even in positions of authority. Some of those people even have actual values and aren't just playing an elaborate charade as part of some conspiratorial master plan.
Publishing to journals, AKA a prime motivator for scientists? Good plan, you incompetent stooges.
If you can't even fight on your own behalf, why would I trust you to fight for me?
I homebrew everything these days, but back when I ran off-the-shelf adventures, I customized and arranged large parts of them as well. I didn't do it to catch cheaters, but it would be very good for that.
Anyway, I just told players not to read outside sources and be careful about what you search for. I said if you come across outside information once, I'll chalk it up to an accident, but if it happens repeatedly, I'll remove you from the group. I didn't feel the need to explain or justify that.
I had one case of someone searching a name to figure out the spelling, and they ended up spoiling themselves for a major character reveal. They were a good player and they regretted spoiling it for them themselves, and it never happened again.
Yes, and more than anything else, we need to stop it, because once privatized it'll be nearly impossible to reclaim our national parks from corporations. Everything else is temporary or can be reversed; this would effectively be permanent.
Nancy Mace fun facts:
- She's been divorced twice.
- She was engaged a third time, but that ended too.
- She accused her ex-fiancée and three other men by name of rape and physical abuse on the floor of Congress. All the men have strongly denied the accusations, and her ex noted that she made her accusations solely on the floor of Congress, the only place where she can't be held legally liable for defamation. Another man sued her for defamation anyway.
- She condemned Trump after Jan 6, then voted against impeachment, then endorsed for president the candidate who was found liable for sexual abuse, accused by his ex-wife of spousal rape and physical abuse, accused of attending underage sex parties, and in total accused by over 25 women of rape, sexual assault, and stalking.
- She supports repealing the ACA.
- She used to be a very strong supporter of LGBTQ rights, then "mysteriously" became super hostile to those exact same rights literally days after Trump was reelected, to the point of sponsoring anti-trans legislation and repeatedly using hate language on the floor of Congress.
- She supported Liz Cheney and voted against her removal from Republican leadership, saying dissent should be protected. She appeared at fundraisers with her. Then she voted to remove her the next time the vote came up.
- She supports sending US troops to forcefully remove Palestinians from Gaza and to take control of the territory.
In summary, Nancy Mace is a failure of a human being with no core values. She will betray any person or cause she has previously supported in her quest for more power. Her personal life is a disaster, and she's an active supporter of genocide.
No, he's really not. He's "both sides are terrible, no one wants to work anymore, and everyone's too sensitive" center right curmudgeon.
2016:
"There's been just too much funny business on both sides of the aisle."
"I think both individuals and both parties backing the individuals have a certain degree of insanity." Eastwood said in the same interview, "I'm not on either side of the aisle. I think most Americans are going, 'What the...? Is this all we can do?' ...When there were 17 people on the stage [in the early GOP debates], I thought, well, there are three or four people up there I could see voting for. They seem pretty good. I had a few...and then I thought, what the hell happened?"
In a red carpet interview with Extra on September 8, 2016, when asked about supposedly supporting Trump, Eastwood replied, "You know, I haven't supported anybody, really," and jokingly suggested that Trump and Clinton constituted a modern-day Abbott and Costello, referring to the bumbling comedians of the 1940s and early 1950s.
Then he endorsed Michael Bloomberg in 2020. That's it.
Yeah. I think it's somewhere in between this and the above post. I think he thinks it's funny, and he likes stirring the pot for his own amusement or to deflect from something else. I don't think he's thinking about it as a demoralization tactic; I think he's just having fun because he doesn't take being president seriously and he's just seeing what he can get away with.
I think Trump is mainly there for grifting, trolling, and bullying, and all the other stuff is just because he wants his crazy base to love him. He just uses the issues as leverage.
Talking big on the Internet
They said in the first trailer that she's pregnant.
