  Welcome to late stage capitalism where air should be monetized at this point. You could make a lot of money paying people to breath and taking away all of the supply. Obviously we failed at something if the air is still free.

    The best way to keep the air clean and safe is to privatize it. Air owners will have a financial interest in keeping their air clean and can sue polluters. Meanwhile, government would just ignore (or at most monitor) pollution.

      Also, if you subscribe to an air company, and die of carbon monoxide poisoning (along with hundreds of thousands of others), then that’s your fault for not doing your research.

        and even if its the companys fault - in principle never, but just to be sure - you have to go through forced arbitration

  Hasbro is uniquely shitty, and has/had multiple important individuals that are former pinkertons.

      We do have Pathfinder and 13th Age, both of which are better than 5e. They don’t have the marketing budget though

        Pathfinder 2 is sooo much better than DnD, especially if you want to GM any official campaigns/modules/one-shots. Paizo’s writing on their adventure paths make it so easy to just jump in and run a game or pilfer encounters and piecemeal a homebrew campaign

        Plus, the character creation, ancestries, and classes are so flexible that you can play almost anything you can imagine without having to homebrew anything. You want play as the Rat King from The Nutcracker? Sure. A goblin sapper from Warcraft 2? Easy-peasy. You want to play as C-3PO? No problem. Christ, you can play as the fucking Velveteen Rabbit if you want.

  Also, how easy it has to be to convince an average American that this is a good thing. That they want you to be at the center, because they care about you, or some other horseshit.
