Rules

Disclaimer These rules are copied directly from r/DnDMemes and will be adapted to Lemmy shortly.

Rule 1. Be Excellent to One Another: No trolling, harassment, personal attacks, sea-lioning, hate speech, slurs, or name-calling. Overly off-topic, political, or hateful debates will be removed, and bans may be issued based on severity. This includes both posts and comments. We reserve the right to remove content or comments that contain discrimination or distasteful content. Be kind and stay on topic.

Rule 2. No Reposts: Posts must not have been posted in !DnDMemes before. Reports with direct links to the original post will greatly expedite their removal process. Reposts from other subreddits are allowed, but once a meme is posted to !DnDMemes, it will forever after be considered a repost.

Rule 3. Post Style Guide: Posts must be strongly relevant to D&D (or other TTRPGs) and must include an attempt at humor or entertainment. Posts must be legible, understandable for a general audience and have some effort put into them, including titles. Video posts may be up to 3 minutes long, and they must be humorous in nature. Only one meme is allowed per post; posts with multiple images inside of them, such as a collage, will be removed. Posts must not rely solely on the title to relate to D&D.

Rule 4. No Advertising: Meme culture is non-profit. No links to stores, fundraising/payment sites, or comments asking for money/followers. Social media handles or website watermarks on original content are acceptable, unless these are monetized, and self promotion of one’s own social media should be limited to once per week. Accounts whose sole purpose are to push products, whether legitimately or fraudulently, will be permanently banned and their content removed.

Rule 5. No Piracy: Do not share or request pirated content. No linking, hinting at, or naming hosts of illicit non-SRD D&D content. You are allowed to copy-paste relevant rules or sections from sources, but large blocks of text may be removed.

Rule 6. No Beating a Dead Horse: Moderators may step in to issue a 3 month prohibition on certain meme topics and formats. The requirements for placing a topic on hiatus are 1. The topic has been prominent on the front page for at least 3 days or 2. The debate topic is toxic in nature. Certain historically overdone themes or formats may be retired permanently at moderator discretion/per user poll. Please see the current list.


The rules listed above are not exhaustive and decisions are made on a case-by-case basis. Such decisions can be appealed in mod mail, and the mods will do their best to come to a productive resolution. All "borderline" mod decisions are the product of informed and objective internal discussion. We welcome feedback on our rules and are always seeking to improve them for better clarity and creating a friendly, social environment here at !DnDMemes.

I guess all those people playing beside you are just randoms that you hate.

Killing the rich people and enacting a revolution <3

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

I just realized that several of my characters have done close to that. They preferred to just send the rich people a document declaring the secession of the city that we were based out of, from the larger kingdom. It was almost always because the king was involved in one war, and decided to start another one, and ordered magic users to the front lines.

Congratulations kingy, now you have 3 wars to deal with, and we just took a bunch of temples, and the wizards' college with us.

A long rest is only 6 hours of "sleep", although I guess you could sleep the whole time if you don't need to prepare spells.

Sounds like a normal night of sleep to me.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Man, I would love to be able to get: "8 hours of sleep each night".

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah same here....

It's 11:15pm wtf am I doing on lemmy...

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Man. It's 4.35am. I randomly woke up an hour ago and can't get back to sleep....

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

5:30am. Same. Nice and ironic this was the first post I clicked on after giving up on just going back to sleep.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

That's exactly what I did! Wooooahhhh! Twinsies?

What's fucked up is even if I sleep 10 hours a night (spoiler alert: I don't) I still don't feel like I slept.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

You may want to look into a sleep study (assuming you can afford it or are not American). There are some sleep problems that can cause you to not feel rested even with a ton of sleep.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I wish I could, but I can't for the same reason I don't sleep restfully these days. I am currently living in two different states trying to sell my house in one state while packing and painting and fixing everything while simultaneously opening up a new branch for my company halfway across the country and dealing with employees in both states who don't seem to understand I'm only one person, and just a normal human at that, and if that wasn't enough, I'm the type of person who can't say no and I overchieve everything. It's stress but it's the kind of stress I can consider good because the way my brain works If I sit still I might fucking explode. Pretty sure I'm ADD but in a way that I've learned to take advantage of it because I'm not medicated or anything. The plus side is I'm getting ahead in life for once and eventually I will over do it to the point I break down and it all becomes someone else's problem while I chill in the psych ward taking to myself about things that aren't real lol

I exaggerate a bit but I'm fucking wired for sound and no one will stop me because life is short and I've got shit to do. I'm fortunate actually, because I love what I'm doing but it will fucking break me one day if I'm not careful.

This is not medical advice, but assume your sleep is fucked for a reason, if you actually feel like you're sleeping during that time, the most common reason by far is sleep apnea. If you have sleep apnea, the best solution is likely going to be losing weight and exercising or buying an expensive machine to sleep with (probably both to start with).

However, getting to the point... the cheap but not nearly as good solution is to sleep on your side and use breathe right strips. You may not sleep well, but you'll sleep slightly better.

Roll a D20. If you crit, you get 8 hours of sleep. Repeat every day.

Don't forget murder and homelessness!

  • Being able to deliberately choose to be so good at talking to people that you have a mathematically significant chance to bring them around to your point of view when you try.
[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (2 children)

IRL, the trick is to only bother if you know they're very open-minded or are part of a tight-knit open-minded community. But that would usually mean you'd have to find a solution to the "making close friends as an adult" part too.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

Practice can help with both of those. I'm fairly introverted, but I constantly force myself to say stuff to people even if I think it might be cringey. Of course, in the beginning, it was, but eventually I got better at talking to people. Now, I can make friends with my co-workers fairly well, and articulate my points coherently enough (and importantly, in real-time) that I am able to bring people over to 'my side' with reasonable success.

Down side is, it's exhausting for me to do, so if I have a week at work where I'm in a lot of meetings or have a lot of interactions like that, my brain is so well and fried by the weekend that all I want to do is sit there and stare at a wall for 48h. WFH during Covid has helped considerably with that aspect, as it's moved most of my conversations into chat or email, but that also means I have to work a bit harder at forcing myself into situations where I have to communicate.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

Nah, the trick is being good at manipulation to the point people don't even consider the fact you're gaslighting them, they actually think you're helping them. Granted, it takes a certain amount of natural charisma to pull this off but it works.
