"It doesn't help your credibility to exaggerate, most employers wouldn't literally work you to death" like, I used to work in distribution. If booking a truck driver for back to back shifts until they fall asleep at the wheel, crash, and die counts as being worked to death, I have personally met employers who've worked employees to death and gotten away with a slap on the wrist. It may not be universal, but it's a hell of a lot more common than a lot of us would prefer to think.

Every single labor protection is written in the blood of those who were literally worked to death, and business owners and profiteers would claw those protections back with glee if they could. They will squeeze every red cent from your body if they are allowed, and write off your death for an insurance payout that they'll try to pocket for themselves while hiring your replacement for half the pay they gave to you.

[recommending something i sincerely love] ok so the thing about it is it kinda sucks

it is SUCH a druid flex for Thaisha to call down lightning to strike right next to her when she's got a METAL staff and METAL beads in her hair and a METAL spine like that lightning is fully 100% concierge on tap on call on demand direct delivery to your FACE if you keep pissing her off even if you're under a forest of church steeples and weather vanes

This is also why herding breeds are often very intelligent and trainable, because we made them to work with us, while livestock guardian dogs most often do not make good pets for most modern lifestyles - we bred them to work independently, away from people, and make their own decisions without human input.

i have to say killing hannan was such a perfect move. it’s emotionally devastating and has exactly the sudden terrifying finality that a power word kill from the most powerful necromancer in the world should have. none of the pcs had exposed themselves nearly enough for that to be warranted on them (and it would be a particularly harsh way to kill a pc), but they had all rolled badly and they had made the choice to keep going back in for each other. the promise of team birdwatching was that it would get bad when primus came home and brennan had to deliver on it. i’m so mad that this was such a good dm move. curse you brennan.

did a bit of driving through the state of georgia today and wound up driving through a small town that i later discovered was called newborn, which is an odd name but doesn’t technically have anything wrong with it, except for the fact that i nearly gave myself whiplash doing a double-take at a building sign advertising NEWBORN TAXIDERMY

Does anyone know what to do about the temperature and also the prices
