  Except, it seems, in Brazil. You learn something new every day

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel you, green guy.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there ever a situation where a doctor can legally refuse to render aid to someone?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, many. In most cases a trained doctor has a moral, and maybe contractual, responsibility to help some one, not a legal one. There is no law that says ‘you are trained doctor, you have to help fix this broken leg’. Now if you egregiously refuse the various medical licensing authorities might take a dim view and you might loose your license to practice, but that’s not the same as breaking the law

  Gimli was turned into the comic relief dwarf, which was a bit sad

  I’ve had the same experience - make sure they don’t get hot (or are rated for it)

  WH40K Rogue Trader. It’s pretty good if you like that kind of thing. ‘Campaign’ bit of the campaign is significantly better that WOTR in my opinion

  And that’s why I subscribe to Private Eye even though I rarely have the energy to read it

  Very informative- thank you

  Jagged Alliance 3 - very good sequel to JA2, more of the same with enough tweaks to make it fun and the campaign has thrown enough curve balls to keep me interested. Like the original it doesn’t hold your hand, which is good. Strongly recommend if you liked the original
