by Hawke Robinson published Jun 20, 2015 last modified Feb 05, 2023 12:22 PM — filed under: , ,
I recently added a new section to the website under the Documents section, books. These are various books that I have read, am reading, or plan to read.

Opinion - Big Bang Theory episode on Dungeons & Dragons - The Love Spell Potential
by Hawke Robinson published Jun 20, 2015 last modified Feb 05, 2023 12:22 PM — filed under: , ,

How did you feel about the sexual rules added? The stereotypes?
