I would recommend the podcast Film Reroll to anyone who wants to see this in action. They start from the point of the movie, then let dice rolls and in-character improv decisions reshape the story. That's how Jafar fell in love with Aladdin, Dorothy rained dragon fire upon the armies of Oz and James Bond died.

Tax goes to a single government spending fund, but I want this to be separate so it can't be channelled into buying guns or whatever. It's only welfare, and nothing else.

While donations are typically voluntary, there's nothing stopping it from being enforced. Someone can put a gun to your head and force you to donate to charity, and that's still a donation.

The vainglorious rich jerks might be less hesitant to part with their cash if they can boast about how much they donated, even if it was required of them. Only a little less, but that's still good.

I have thought about it, and I am sticking with "donate" as the term.

It's hilarious you think the people with the highest yearly earnings get that by working hard. Do you think Jeff Bezos has been working harder than you have this entire year in the time since you posted your comment alone?

You're not wrong, but I'd want it separate from tax so it goes directly to welfare and not just government funds. It also sounds nicer to donate than pay taxes, and you never get a donation rebate.

The wealthiest 10% of people must donate at least 5% of their yearly earnings to a general fund for public welfare, including free food, shelter and medical aid. Business assets domestic and international are included in this calculation. Anyone who attempts to hide assets to avoid donating, even within the confines of the law, can be tried for the manslaughter of everyone who died from poverty that fiscal year.

Essentially, if you have the financial means to help people, you are legally required to.

This is the worst timeline.

Does he deserve one, though? He hasn't done anything useful, he's just been standing next to a bench.

Oh, it absolutely is. Tradition for tradition sake leads to so many bad practices.

There is a HobbyDrama community, but it is rather lacking in content at the moment. !hobbydrama@lemmy.world

This is all stuff you'd have a reason to know in character when a setting includes something as impactful as the ability to use the dead as a witness. If the victim can be a witness, you need to either fool or silence the victim post-mortem.

I'm writing a murder mystery adventure in my spare time, so... Yeah, it came up.

1. Burn the body.
2. Kill a stranger.
3. Wear a disguise.
4. Hide the head.
5. Cast Speak With Dead yourself so nobody else can.

There are many ways to keep a witness from identifying you. You just need to be creative.

I don't know for certain if he deserves it or not, but this guy will always be known as the guy accused of using a buttplug to cheat at chess. There's no escaping it at this point.

There's actually a fun story about a guy that roleplayed taking a dump during a dungeon delve. It ended in disaster.

Nah, screw the law. Just stick within ethical limits and we're clear. If my bestie asked me to murder a dude, I would say no, but if she asked me to punch a cop, then it's cop punching time.

An alternate version of the meme:

And a blank version:

Politely request the porn and, upon receiving the porn, be grateful. No contradiction here.

Yeah, my one builds on this one. Mine has a horse.

I don't speak German either, but I like it in English either way. It's a reversal of how the misunderstanding usually happens in comedy while still being an understandable mistake, and an extra step on the part of the person who made the mistake that adds absurdity.
