Bristlebane: The King of Thieves (https://everquest.fandom.com/wiki/Bristlebane)

Coming to Norrath with the second wave of gods in The Elder Age, Fizzlethorp Bristlebane made the Halflings, short and stubby folk, agile and with a propensity to meddle and even pilfer at times.

Followers of Bristlebane believe in having fun, at the expense of nearly all else. Bards, Rogues, jesters, gamblers, and gypsies are all typical followers. They are almost always very charming, clever, and witty, traits which all Bristbane followers should strive to have. Mischief in all its forms is encouraged. Practical jokes are performed as if they are the highest of rituals. Very few of Bristlebane's followers are outright wicked in their desires but it is best to keep at least one eye on your purse if they are about. And never let one deal you a hand of King's Court.

Bristlebane is especially close with Brell Serilis -- something about short followers perhaps?

Followers of Bristlebane are almost invariably Rogues, Halflings, or, to be honest, frequently both. (Some Bards of a sneakier bent also talk of him in hushed whispers.) You could say that every Rogue guild is in fact his temple, but he has a real one in Rivervale. He has Clerics there, but no Paladins; he seems inherently uninterested or incapable of fostering the required valor or honor. Finally, his worship seems to have gotten a toehold among a few of the already small number of Gnome Clerics of Ak'Anon, but fortunately doesn't seem to have spread to the main populace yet. Bristlebane devotees with tinkering and firework abilities is a horrifying thought.

Interestingly, halflings DID get paladins later but they were required to worship Karana, the rain god instead of their true lord.

Never get involved these stores have insurance.

I am aware of organized crime but let cops figure it out.

Being a cowboy(southern)/vigilante(northern) just gets you killed.

Support your capitol policy even if one side says you shouldn't.

What happens when they have insurance and incur losses?

Magnetaress 2.0 doesn't exactly approve by default. What is the context of the video.

Maybe I hijinkeded Pulgasari brainwaves. Butt accidents happen.

[magnetaress]

**Commandments 3 and 8: A person may feel that stealing is only between him and the victim, but it is also a crime against G‑d, whose name will ultimately be taken falsely.**

[magnetaress]

Gnomes are also way more sneaky than stea;ly and Bristlebane isn't really the king of stealing more like stealth and stealing is a subdomain of that.

[magnetaress]

only goblins would outright be thieves

hobbitses are good remember, they might filch some extra cheese bites left out at a party tho unnoticed

[Ciderpress]

Don't worry, people have car insurance, which means there are infinite cars.

Oops another store closed citing theft, and yet they had insurance! How?????

[magnetaress]

stealing and xbox isnt the same as stealing an apple either

[Ciderpress]

Yeah but what if you steal an apple every day for 20 years? That's a much bigger monetary loss than a single xbox.

[Ekco]

I don't miiiiiiiiind stealin' bread

[magnetaress]

Yeah but what if you steal an apple every day for 20 years? That's a much bigger monetary loss than a single xbox.

The price of Apples being ridiculous doesn't justify 20 years. It should be more like 200 years mandatory orchard duty. <--- this is an abstract about the value and rarity of apples. Substitute bug loafs where applicable. It's a case where doing the crime is as bad as doing the time.

We should just give apples in /@ church imho. Apple tithe inc. Mormons.

Some sins are worse than others even if they're in the same class....

No one wants to steal bread, anchovies, and peanut butter sandwiches, butt they are good survival food if you're begging. Was. Breads too expensive now.

[magnetaress]

Probably anchovies too.

[magnetaress]

Evul hobbitses

* Corporate greed is still corporate greed.

* Thieving in urban area's isn't new.

* When people are desperate that do what they must to survive.

* More insurance copes with more in store thefts.

* Organized crime has been around forever and law enforcement can work on this just as they did in the past.

* Smart stores are back to the Covid days and having customers stay outside as the employees get the items they want. Curb shopping.

Why did they suddenly become more greedy than usual?

[Trexller]

Why did they suddenly become more greedy than usual?

the party is over and they all need to aquire as much wealth as possible before the bottom falls out of globalist capitalism and they are all relegated to fighting over market share among their domestic populations

Bottom can't full out unless the anti birthers get their way and growth is thereby impossible.

Go sex a lady.

The new thing among my dork friends who are approaching 40 and coping with not having kids yet is "It feels irresponsible to bring children into the modern world" like buddy try that excuse in the middle ages. Literal plagues and famines and global slavery and widespread misery yet people were popping out kids like mad. If you had less than 8 kids you were a total loser.

Now it's "oh dear, I wouldn't want baby atticus to only have a tracfone!"

[Duik]

You people worry waaaay too much about whether other people are having kidsor not.
Listen, i know lots of you love the muskrat and i know he wants a billion more people in the world, cuz ya know more people = more money for billionaires! Huzzah.
God people as well love the procreation thing, more peeps = more thumpers.

Your 40 yr old friends i agree with. Pity the more questionable parents didnt just end their night with a finger up the arse and a blowjob.

[magnetaress]

having a kid is the #1 best way to fall into poverty and need to steal bread lol

also generating anothe poverty stricken baby

the best thing would be for growth to stop and for a system to be designed to cleanly contract markets without so much fallout, and to *take care of the old or infirm

(*communism)

[Ciderpress]

Lots of incredibly successful people who became extremely wealthy and contributed amazing things to society started out as poverty-stricken babies.

People who are already in poverty having a lot of babies is not the same thing as babies making you poor. Correlation\causation and all.

More people is good. Sex up a waman and have babies. Who are going to fill the ranks of the p99 guilds of the future?

I will take the baby enjoyers over the collapsitarians every time.

I'll try to be less bossy. :o

[arvidez]

sacrificing a baby for an easier life for who?

replace the vagina with the rio grande border. should we allow this new life entry? yes? but it will be poor! but it will have opportunities!

[Ciderpress]

I personally love being alive, not that I have a particularly easy life, but I'm nonetheless grateful that there wasn't some dork on the internet advocating against my very conception back in 1983. Who does such a person think they are?

[magnetaress]

Abstinence bros

[Ciderpress]

You can still do lots of kinky promiscuous sex stuff without any chance of making a baby in the process. But noooo, that's not enough. Bunch of heathen animals we are.

[arvidez]

my sex to baby ratio is 10000/3...

[magnetaress]

Lol. 3. Top kek, ka'kek. Lol.

0. Baby bros and no nuts either. Gg. Gf. Gh.

[Evia]

1)bristlebane is a fun EQ deity, i almost always pick it on my bards or rogues.
2)stealing an apple is just as bad as stealing an xbox. making justifications for one thing over another is a slippery slope. just because you're hungry doesnt make it ok. if we followed this logic ppl would be raping strangers to avoid blue balls. bad is just bad. wrong is just wrong.
3)botten stop being racist. its a bad look.
4)having babies is awesome. so is sexing women. highly recommend. A+ will do again

[Trexller]

my sex to baby ratio is 10000/3...

Dang im like 8000/0

How are you getting laid 2000 times more than me

[Swish]

You guys count? :o

[magnetaress]

Who the heck wants to be 10 years old again not knowing shit butt what other idiots tell you: that's effectively what having a kid is in terms of absolute material conciousness.

[Trexller]

You guys count? :o

Yes, absolutely.

Actually, let's do a two-fer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Voisin)

Catherine Monvoisin, or Montvoisin, née Deshayes, known as "La Voisin" (c. 1640 – 22 February 1680), was a French fortune teller, commissioned poisoner, and professional provider of alleged sorcery. She was the head of a network of fortune tellers in Paris providing poison, aphrodisiacs, abortion, purported magical services and the arranging of black masses, with clients among the aristocracy and became the central figure in the famous affaire des poisons. Her purported organization of commissioned black magic and poison murder was suspected to have killed 1,000 people, but it is believed that upwards of 2,500 people might have been murdered.

Never let them tell you witch trials were a sham.
