  • Nah, screw that if you have space. Yeah, you can run out off space, but keep things organized and throw out the oldest first. Some assholes will only honor a warranty with original packaging.

    You may need to move, and original packaging usually protects better than random boxes.

    You might want to gift something older, and original packaging helps.

    Reselling with original packaging gets quicker responses and (sometimes) better prices, no matter how good the condition is.

    If whatever it is becomes collectible/valuable, original packaging almost always increases price.

    Keep that shit at least a year, if you have room at all, even if you have to open the box up and fold it flat.


  • Well, I can’t say much about “for life”, but I bought a batch of Rubbermaid trays back in 2008, and they’re all still in use. No cracks, no problems. I added to the original 4 a couple of times, and the most recent two pack is indistinguishable from the older ones in thickness or coloration. So I’m fairly confident that the new ones should last just as well.

    I’m also going to chime in about the silicone trays. They work fine, but I’ve had a lot of trouble with them picking up odors, like from being washed with scented soaps. Never had the issue with regular plastic.

    However, there are also the old school metal trays that last for bloody ever. Might be worth looking into



  • Unless the DM is fucking stupid, and allows bards powers they shouldn’t have, this would make it possible to seduce someone that would otherwise not be attracted to you. That’s about it in terms of practical use.

    I would rule that if you’re actually making them gay, they’re fully gay, so there wouldn’t be anyone upset about being gay within the duration of the spell. They might be upset at related problems, like a partner that made a saving throw now being incompatible, but not because they’re suddenly attracted to people of the same sex and/or gender.

    Now, if the spell had been written so that all it changed was that they were now attracted to a different gender or sex, they might be distressed. And as written, they might be upset at the potential fallout of now being gay, but not the fact of being gay itself.

    Side note: lemmy doesn’t tend to censor the word suicide, or kill themselves. It’s okay to use actual terms if you want. Not saying you have to, just that it’s allowed.











  • Ngl, this has never been a problem for multiple sessions for me. As a player or DM.

    As a player, I show up willing to play characters that will work with a group, even if they don’t trust them. Trust isn’t necessary to work together.

    As a DM I remind all players of that fact before they roll one up. If they don’t have an idea on how their character would manage that, I’ll give them ideas.

    Yeah, you’ll run into players that just don’t get that not every character has to have the same motivation to work with others, or just refuse to play different characters (instead, they try to play the same character with different names). But those are rare. And, so far, I’ve yet to run into a player that wouldn’t take the “look, you don’t have to keep playing with us, but give it a try my way and see how it goes, yeah?” talk and give it a fair try.

    I’ve also never had a player quit because of the game not being engaging and fun.
