Got it. I now don't trust any feeling I have while sleeping.

Or while awake the next day. 9 pm is going to come tonight, and I can never trust again.

Do you work at a dairy farm?

You think lichens are representative off our conceptions about an 'organism' being off? My friends, let me introduce you to the weird world of bacteria, where one cell's waste becomes the triggering signal for a billion cells with completely different DNA to begin acting in concert. Your brain patterns? Yup, partially affected by short chain fatty acids released by bacteria in the gut. That terrible acne you suffered from in high school? Oh boy, more bacteria, and not just on your skin but in your gut and and your skin and in your skin!

Let's not even get started on bacterial sex habits either. It would be equivalent to a human randomly mating with a squirrel sometime, and the squirrel suddenly starts washing its hands.

miss the proliferation of arcade video game cabinets.

One of the few nice things that's come around my area is a $15 all you can play pinball place. I love it.

I don’t think there’s a way to link posts that doesn’t require one to use the instance of the poster

It's one of the things we're all waiting for.

Your original comment isn't that far off, though. Donkeys are often kept with other animals because they can be ornery and mean as fuck, killing predators that come near where they're being corralled. They're known as the rural alarm system for a reason.

I don't think the Cage likes being referred to so blandly...

I was told it was a quick weight-loss solution.

I once had to help an ass that had either been dumped or escaped and ended up at a park until the animal wrangling guy came. It was the sweetest creature I could ever imagine. All it wanted was to stand next to me and lightly push its head against my arm until I gave it pets and scratches. One of the best 30 minutes of my life.

stealth archer to the nth degree

There are some good reads out there about invisibility in the fantasy worlds. I think one of the 3.5e splat books had an entire section dedicated to it (and I can't find it right now, super annoying). Most enemies, from the lowest tech bandit gang to a king's treasury, will have some idea about how to deal with it, because they live in a world where it happens, gets routine gossip on, and they've probably heard some strange creaks in the night (a tree branch, really) that they just know was an invisible demon creeping around when they were a vulnerable child...

It isn't really raining on your characters' parade to have the people in the world they live in expect things that go on in said world. Businesses and commonfolk alike have likely worried about everything from teleporting frog-polymorphing wizards to hell portals opening in their back room, and probably have some idea about what they think they would do.

Doors at night would have ceramic bowls stacked next to them, windows might have small screens or strings that need to be cut, any guard that is part of a decent organization will have resources stored somewhere to counter it (faerie fire or more 'out there' ideas like create water). I don't know about your edition, but 3.5e had specific checks that would tip off people that something is around. The sound of an imp's wings alone is going to be heard anywhere other than a raucous tavern (if you've ever heard a bird or bat flying by, imagine something 10x as heavy with leathery wings), because it isn't a superb owl, after all. Even mundane things would add up. Imagine the classic bell that rings when someone enters through a shop door. It was never intended to be an 'anti invisibility' thing, but it sure adds thematic drama to the affair.

The others have already answered, but I'll leave you with this nice summary, and a link to the best source of law info for the commonfolk in america there is.

If they can somehow prove that the arrest or search was illegal, that’s a huge deal and will get a ton of evidence tossed or even the whole trial nullified.

I can nearly guarantee you that one of the courts, whether the current court or a later appellant court, will weasel their way to saying that the evidence being used would have been found anyway (the second exception), and thus won't get thrown out even if they admit to the search being illegal.
