@DavidCoffron Right, but on the flip side, if I describe myself as enby, it allows me to a) indicate that I am not "as I appear" (because presentation is complicated) and b) allows me to potentially find people who are also this thing to ally myself with/befriend/learn from etc

Historical note: "Hacker" once meant a coder who didn't write clean code and didn't fix it before running it.

hacker has meant a lot of things

Yuuki

Hackers are those programmers who, for some reason, decide to come into work when they have the flu and spend the entire day hacking up phlegm.

We celebrated 30,000 Q's are we going to have a baby celebration for 10,000 [dnd-5e] questions?

Q: When making a campaign, how liberal can you get with "homebrewing" in 5e?

Unsure how far to go. If you want to make your campaign really interesting, how far can you go in making new monsters, artifacts, and such? Essentially, should you be able to create entire new subtypes of monsters, such as, for example, adding a Spectral Subtype to the Undead Type? Create new d...
