Frankly I was very high when I watched both of these and found them hard to follow
I appreciate that, but it’s a funny way to describe the movie

“People have raised the issue that should there be a Brics currency.

Oh if you’ve got a new person then fuck d&d unless they really want to specifically play d&d. If not, there are way better systems for shared storytelling. I introduce people to rpging via dungeon world 10 times out of 10.

take shitfights into DMs or use the report button to get mods to deal with this. in the meantime, take a couple days off.
don’t be needlessly antagonistic. take a breather and come back in a couple days
if you’re going to disengage then you need to actually do that and resist the impulse to do parthian shots. you both are going in timeout for a bit
