Thoughts?

 

Hey all,

I've been wanting to host game nights at my place, and was hoping to use an old folding table I have since it fits nearly under my couch (I have a small apartment) and, is cheaper than buying a whole new table.

Of course, I can use the table as-is (it's just a standard folding table after all) but I was hoping I could get some ideas on ways to have it better suit tabletop gaming.

Right now my only idea is to get a neoprene mat for the top, but I don't have any good ideas on how to non-destructively adhere it to the top of the table.

Honest question, how can we ever get out of this? Is it just human nature for most of the population to not have critical thinking skills? Is it possible to reach a world where the majority of people have even just a little empathy?

It's just so sad. It's so clear to anyone even kinda paying attention that we possess the technical capacity as a society to meet everyone's needs and eliminate so much human-caused suffering at the detriment to absolutely nobody. We could be working toward a society where everyone has community, safety, security, opportunity. We could do so much if all we did was kind of give a shit about each other.

But no. Let's elect the guy who mocked a disabled reporter, encourages white supremacy, committed treason, etc.

Donald Trump is just a guy. A shitty guy, but just a guy. He's not what is ruining the world, but the fact that so many Americans want to vote for that shitty guy as president shows that a massive portion of the population is also just some shitty person, and fuck if that doesn't just burn up all my hope for this world.

I'm really confused why people feel this way. Can't you just cancel it if you feel like it's not worth it anymore?

Ok but even more super-honestly, the bitching about the bitching about the bitching about the bitching is worse. Why did you make this comment? Why not just downvote that asshat's content about that other asshat's content and move on? It doesn't contribute, so why comment to complain about complaints about complaints about complaints?

We should not do this as any more times probably....also google en passant.

I'm pretty sure they accept donations

Tbf Mozilla needs money to keep doing good work, and I don't mind "paying" for Firefox like that when the only alternatives are "paying" by letting Google track and sell my personal data.
