I thought The Raconteurs were ok, but the Dead Weather really got my attention.

that was the tipping point for me, specifically.

Hey, I'm not the one downvoting posts because I don't like their tone.

Plus, I don't judge people based on their choice of game (as you seem to); I am simply pointing out that there are other options. Sure, I used "better" as a shorthand for "more complex, more balanced, more inclusive, better written (especially from the GM's PoV), and more universal," so I could have done a better job of explaining what I meant. If you think that's being condescending, I'm happy to give you specific examples of why I think that and you can judge for yourself, or go read/watch any of the many, many side-by-side comparisons.

I play DnD with my good friends because that's what they want to play, and I don't judge them or their character choices. I mentioned Pathfinder as an option before session zero, and we agreed to go with DnD due to people's familiarity. However, in a community dedicated to DnD and TTRPG's in general, it doesn't seem out of place to me to talk about other options. And the other people upvoting my original post seen too think it's a valid contribution as well.

Like I said, you should play whatever game you want. If you don't like Pathfinder players, then you can just, you know, not play Pathfinder. Feel free to downvote and move on.

You can play whatever you want, but in the comments of a post specifically about one of the very few places that DnD pays lip service the LGBTQ community, it seems appropriate to talk about the primary competitor that absolutely crushes representation and social justice issues.

But you do you.

In addition, you can play Pathfinder 2 which has queer, non-binary, asexual, and trans characters as part of the core rules.

Plus it's a straight-up better game than DnD

Strong Rat Queens vibes

With Gold Bond, right? The proper way for a Klingon warrior?

Now we're crossing over into Mad Max territory, blood bag!

Great choice among a lot of great choices from that show. The Staples Family Singers, Neil Diamond, Dr. John, not to mention The Last Waltz has my very favorite version of Neil Young's "Helpless"

Best concert film ever

If I'm being honest, I don't expect to see a penny of social security. I'm making other arrangements wherever possible

If you're looking for the "Whistle Stop" song, that's also by Roger Miller link

I'm not an etymology expert, but I did see a few sources that all claimed scot came from a Scandinavian word "skat," which was a redistributive tax (Source)

I do like your explanation, too, though. The other explanation I've heard a few times was that it was related to the Dred Scott case regarding an escaped slave who petitioned the Supreme Court in an attempt to gain his freedom (it didn't work, though, so I'm not sure why people would claim that to be the origin of the phrase "Scott free" anyway)
