A 10-minute convo between the Daredevil stars on the strengths of Dungeons & Dragons
  • Deborah Ann Woll gave Jon Bernthal an engaging introduction to Dungeons & Dragons on his podcast, explaining character creation and gameplay in a fun and accessible way.
  • Woll’s approach focuses on storytelling and immersing players in the world rather than overwhelming them with character sheets and rules, making D&D more appealing to newcomers.
  • The video highlights the universal appeal of D&D, where both Hollywood stars and regular players can connect and enjoy the game together.

        This is just so wrong. English dictionaries are descriptive: they describe how the language is being used.

        In 1961 people like you threw a fit that “ain’t” was added to Webster’s, despite its first known use over 200 years earlier.

        English has no ultimate arbiter of “proper” use; it changes as people use it and dictionaries are a reference for how it is being used, not how it ought to be used.

        Language is a living, changing thing. It doesn’t matter how many grammar nazis oppose the changes, if enough people start using a word or phrase in a different way, that becomes the “right” way to use the word/phrase. “Nice” used to mean foolish, “meat” once meant food in general, and in my lifetime “gay” went from “happy” to “homosexual”.

        If you can’t accept that language changes, you’re gonna have a bad time.
