To piggyback onto this, level 5 in particular is huge because lots of classes unlock important things like a second attack at that level. That's true, but the reason I specify 4 as well is because two of the hardest encounters in the game is available at lvl 3, and getting that 4th level makes a massive difference. Getting to 5 before then requires some out of path grinding. Getting to 4 just means you got your opinions and the intro side quests. --- You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. -Misattributed to CS Lewis |

If your ally gets downed, use the bonus action healing word to bring them back up. You still get to keep your main action and don't have to risk your ally dying. Right click enemies and examine them. It's basically the scan function in other games that you can use for free.

I guess if I had to pinpoint my main issue with the movie, it would be that the mother was just way too over the top. There were multiple scenes with her acting in a way that was just completely embarrassing to the main character and acting completely oblivious and unaware of the situation. I'll admit the movie wasn't directed towards everyone. However, it resonated with a lot of Asian women I know. My sister was bawling from this movie. I think it's alright that a movie isn't made for you and still recognize it's a well made movie. Everything, everywhere all at once felt like a mother/daughter movie at its core, but it won so many Oscars because it's a well made movie. Turning Red just had so much personality and love put into it that I can ignore that I'm not who the movie was made for.

Isn't Pixar's fall from grace sad? Not even commenting on this movie but just the general lack of excitement for their movies and their slew of bombs in the last few years. The hype is definitely down, but they still make good movies. Soul and Turning Red were really good.

I could see this movie adding a second set of emotions that are sort of twisted/more extreme versions of the original five, and having their sort-of-doppelgngers working together being a focal point of the story.

But their ability to take those risks and provide critical funding to entrepreneurs in early stages is something that makes the system special. Think about all the great companies that have been successful due to fund raising through VCs. The entire internet boom, the SAAS industry, so many biotechnology companies. You could go down a list of any decent sized company that was founded in the last 40 years that provides some service you enjoy and VC funding probably helped make it happen. Their ability to take that risk is solely because they are filthy rich. It's not some special character trait that makes them better than everyone else. As far as critical thinking goes, yes some are experienced and can provide some needed knowledge for new start ups. On the other hand, as with executive meddling, just as often they screw up companies with their shit takes. --- You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. -Misattributed to CS Lewis |

The reality of it is, that outside the vote, it doesn't really matter what your daily opinions about it are. Most of your life is not politics.
