Let them. Just have the ring draw them into even bigger trouble every time they do. Like he saves you from being chased by a pack of owlbears by setting the forest on fire. Now you are being hunted by a circle of pissed off druids.

Reminds me a bit of Fizban from the Dragonlance novels. Pretended to be an old senile wizard who couldn't remember his spells half the time. In reality was a good god playing 5D chess to position the heroes to save the world from evil.

You could have him say a bunch of inane stuff and then throw in "Back in my day there was a powerful enchanter living that ruined castle. I wonder what happened to all the magical artifacts he made?"The heroes obviously jump at the chance for treasure but stumble upon cultists trying to resurrect an evil dead god that need thwarting.

If a player is about to die, he "remembers" a spell to help save them but needs to sleep for a few days after.

There's still a small chance Trump dies and the fascists devour themselves infighting over the crown. Probably not likely, but a guy can dream.

I can see how this is going to go. Someone will sue on free speech grounds, it will go to the supreme court. The Christian nationalist supremes will not only uphold this ruling, but take the opportunity to make burning the US flag no longer protected speech as well.

At the very least there are 13 big civil suits coming his way.

There are way more cis people.

Its not a slip. He's going to give Alaska to Russia.

I'm sure he would happily give up Alaska to his Russian buddies

In Flood's case, he had a show on his college's radio so his parents bought him a station. He got more stations. Then he became a politician. He has never worked a day in his life.

I think I figured it out. These guys are thinking of themselves when they were younger. They mooched off mommy and daddy's money after college until they were forced to get a job. They assume everyone's life is like that.

Ah, but the cause is lack of treatment for dysphoria, not the dysphoria itself.

Sounds like it would be possible to prescribe puberty blockers to alleviate depression and mitigate risk of self-harm.

Or pistachio butter

General strikes that involve the whole population are super rare. I could see something like the one in 1989 in Czechoslovakia where it was for two hours on one day only. The problem is that general strikes are usually organized through unions and there simply isn't that structure for most of the country.

The first step is convincing enough people that those are our only options. We are nowhere near to having a critical mass for either of those options to work.

You're right we have to try, but this method won't work. You can't ask people to sacrifice that much without more of a certainty of success.

Thats my point. Making less money is good with sliding scale therapy. Some places even do it for free if you're broke enough.

Train as a masseuse. Get a job at Mar-a-lago. Work there for 3 years. After that time very non-employee there I have touched all spontaneously combust simultaneously.

There are sliding scale healthcare places. Even if you make $40k, you can still find options for around $60 a session. And if that's still too much, selling a gun for a couple of sessions might help in multiple ways.
