It was good. Twilight sparkle showing up to give a lecture on thaumaturgy was an unexpected but welcome surprise.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

Are you ageist??

Some 12 year olds are very mature for their age. That said, since they are on reddit....

Since that might have been my last session I just want to thank everyone. Listening to everyone's stories over the past few months during the current situation has helped me deal with it, more than you will ever know. So, again, many thanks to everyone.
