I went through a similar arc. Ended up just reading this LP.

I’ve been holding on to a desire to run an Ars Magica campaign, but I’ve avoided it on account of my own lack of experience. How did you get started DMing at all?? There’s just so much to do even before the players get involved.

My current plan is to shelve that dream and try OSR instead. Less mechanical baggage, less asked of the players. On the other hand, they’re more experienced with Pathfinder and 5e, so maybe there’s a different sort of baggage.

What’s wrong with EDH?

It’s hard for me to tell what a more accessible, casual format does to the other formats.

I was gonna say that getting GPT to polish your affirm your intuitions wasn’t good evidence, but I read the sample question and now I smell burnt toast.

More effort than this, please.

It has lots of staying power ‘cause it’s an efficient motte and bailey.

Motte: the stereotypical email-shuffler. Office Space. Sinecures for the trust-fund kid. Wal-mart greeters.

Bailey: anything I don’t like or respect. Fundraising? Bullshit. Compliance? Nobody cares about that stuff. Management? Fuck those guys in particular.

Apply the usual incentives of group psychology, and bam, everyone’s getting Gell-Mann Amnesia.

Okay, that’s definitely more widely distributed than I was expecting. I know a lot of those counties already went heavily red but the New England stuff is really surprising.

I guess I really do put a lot of it down to Trump.

The GOP isn’t really acting like a party which is competitive everywhere. It made gains in coal country, Alaska, and Montana while doubling down on blaming Coastal Elites. Very Trump. I don’t see how that converts into lasting popularity elsewhere.

Trump can’t carry turnout forever.

Yeah, you’re coming in too hot here.

“Look, it’s been over 30 years since the show ended. Let it go.”

"Well, officer, I saw he had multiple stab wounds, so I broke a couple fingers. Helps to counter the bleeding."

I don't think this would accomplish what you seem to expect.

To play devil's advocate: neither administration has expressed much concern with PR up to this point.
