Nope. Given that we've had a new protagonist for each game, it would be weird and would have felt too Mass Effect -y.

(I love Mass Effect, but I don't need Dragon Age to be any more similar.)

If only the average white man could be so strong.

Yes. I generally recruit all of the available companions. Oghren wasn't my favorite, but he did grow on me. A bit like a fungus. Lol

Absolutely D. I was introduced to DA:O after DA:2 had already been out for a while and actually skipped 2 initially but went back to play it after DA:I.

I love the series and they really are part of my comfort media.

i don’t normally endorse block lists (i’m on some, weirdly lumped in with people i myself have blocked) but i don’t see how blocking all these accts with one button is bad.

most importantly, DO NOT ENGAGE WITH THEM. they already own X so they wouldn’t be here if they weren’t trying to start shit.

C. If it was Hawke or Alistair, I had to, even though it sucked.

Otherwise, no.

B but also, it's complicated.

I think he's really good representation of the way some people care a lot but don't listen and really make bad choices that could have been avoided.

Having your feelings hurt or experiencing disappointment is not the same thing as a system of oppression.

Sometimes marginalized people want spaces that aren't full of the people who belong to the oppressor group. And that should be okay.

White women, I beg of you, Please learn the difference between having your feelings hurt and actual systems of oppression.

Portia @portianoir.com · 17d

It’s disheartening that Black people want a space to be among likeminded Black folks and not have to face anti Black racism from the likes of you?
That’s what has your feelings hurt?
And your reasoning is that you’ve *checks notes* say you, as a white woman, have experienced racism.
Girl. 😒

LegacyIngenue @emkaydub.bsky.social · 18d

This is disheartening. I want all races in my community and unfortunately I think this is racist. I understand the black community wants to be supported, it’s coming off as a one way street. I’ve encountered racism lately all from mentally unstable black women. Blacksky will further segregate people

D - I think that would be the best food & drink, by far. And I'd get to spend time with Lucanis.

I started watching 911 which breaks with my no copaganda shows that aren't about bumbling cops needing a psychic, mentalist, mystery author, forensic anthropologist or other outsider so they can do their jobs. But I really enjoy Angela Bassett chewing scenery goddammit

no no the publishing industry is doing fine, why do you ask

A screenshot from Publisher's Lunch:
Jennifer L. Armentrout and Hellmann's
In a promotion designed for BookTok enjoyment, Jennifer L. Armentrout’s just-published THE PRIMAL OF BLOOD AND BONE is available in a special, limited-edition "garlic-scented copy, infused with Hellmann’s Garlic Aioli to create a one-of-a-kind, Craven-proof book." They explain: "This exclusive edition is printed with garlic-infused ink, designed to ward off Armentrout’s bloodthirsty monsters, the Craven. While humans may dread garlic breath, Hellmann’s has cleverly transformed this social faux pas into an unexpected – and delicious – form of supernatural protection."

I really should not be so hard.

And I know what you mean about the folks who make such "helpful" comments. I had a lady explain light switches to me once after I complained about neighborhood kids doing shenanigans. I was in my late 40s, not age 4.

Have spent a lot of time explaining to people who don't "get" MAGA that there's nothing more unifying than finding others who hate the people you hate and will validate your shitty, cruel, ignorant af world views.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth

You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people
