What’s up with this Legends card that makes it look like you’re meeting jiub below deck to get skullfucked into a new plane of oblivion

So I ask you, fair voter. Call your two-dollar whore of a congressman and tell them to meet me at Al's Car Hut for a fight for the soul of the greater New England area. This ends tonight.

When you decided that I should be the warlord of this area, I knew that I would have to tangle with the established political order. They weren't getting it done for you. That's why you trusted me with your support, in the form of muscle cars, arm-mount crossbows and an unbeatable army of fiercely loyal soldiers. I got you clean water. I figured out how to hook up a bunch of old Priuses to solar panels so that you could heat your homes. And now, I'm going to keep you safe from Uncle Sam.

Why does the federal government persist in trying to stick their noses into our perfect worker's utopia? Sure, there are flaws. I'll be the first to admit that I haven't been a perfect leader. I've been hoarding most of the gasoline, and keeping all the breakfast cereal that falls out of the trucks we ram-raid on the interstate. Those shouldn't disqualify us from receiving aid, just because the neighbouring states haven't had the common sense to surrender to us yet and are busy enjoying their false pleasures of running water, ample electricity, and same-day pizza delivery.

When Congressman Phelps finally deigns to visit his constituents, believe you me that we will discuss the finer points of his position on this whole thing. In Al's Car Hut's parking lot, the debate will be short and brutal. He likes to frame it as a "rebellion," as if we were rebelling against anything other than having to go to our shitty jobs every single day. He thinks you've been brainwashed by a highly charismatic nutjob. He didn't even mention how nice my hair is looking, now that we stole all the pomade from that ship out in the harbour.

I think he's just jealous of all the factories my government – our government – has captured and converted into producing continuation examples of the 1978 Plymouth Volare, the only car that anyone could ever have wanted.

Female transgender athletes at a disadvantage study claims

A study funded by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has revealed that transgender female athletes face physical disadvantages compared to cisgender women across various measures.

This research indicates that physically active transgender women exhibit poorer performance in specific cardiovascular tests and possess less lower-body strength than their cisgender counterparts.

Contrary to earlier assertions, the study conducted by researchers at the University of Brighton also concludes that the bone density of transgender women is comparable to that of cisgender women, a factor closely linked to muscle strength.

The research paper says that :

"While longitudinal transitioning studies of transgender athletes are urgently needed, these results should caution against precautionary bans and sport eligibility exclusions that are not based on sport-specific (or sport-relevant) research."

The study can be found here: Yannis P. Pitsiladis et al: Strength, power and aerobic capacity of transgender athletes: a cross-sectional study

getting very pedantically cranky over the dnd style gear list in runequest. i don't think it's very bronze age of you to present your gear with a standard price list. i know there's probably ye olde weapons shoppes in pavis or some other bullshit old book but i don't think there should be.

every rpg should have the circle of hands combat chapter. i think i'd place it even above UA's six ways to stop a fight.
