Going the private route is expensive. So it is a rock and a hard place.

I'm not sure if the algorithm is really confused, or if there is just such a preponderance of Christian themed grifters out there that I'm catching overflow, but gosh, I get a lot of adverts for ways to improve my ministry.

Our new app lets Vampires hire a minimum wage gig worker for those moments when a warm body is required. This is not - and we cannot stress this enough - DoorDash for blood-bags. It is for when the autolights keeps turning off because they aren't detecting anyone.

Would dragons make really good or really bad glass-blowers?

Mouthpiece of my pipe broke, so I am nicotine free today. This will be your only warning.

Oh god there is no signal here. I am alone with my thoughts. Oh no. Oh fuck. Oh... oh we are back.

Salem the Cat, announcing "Wake up, woman! You're not a princess, you're a dragon!"

Who among us, when confronted with a weird rock would not be tempted?

Let he who is without sin whack the first stone.

First Mage On The Moon by Cameron Johnston. Against a twilight blue background, a rusty magical rocketship readies for launch, with engineering diagrams off to the side.

Happy Launch Day to me!

First Mage On The Moon is out today.

Maybe you will enjoy Creature Commandos better? There is a character who kills nazis. In every scene he is not killing nazis, he is wishing that he was.

A very happy "Neil Banging Out the Tunes" to those who observe this holy day.

Had Skyrim on PC for a while. Modded to death. Still have no idea which did what. But they all failed if I removed the load-bearing giants have boobs mod.

That is the airlock we are ejecting you from

It was definitely trying to do something, but I have no idea if it meant to open the can of worms it opened.

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

Oh yeah the chair really seems to trigger the maximum asshole response. I'm sorry :(

But good news that you've been having a lucky streak.

I have actually started to fiddle with the dials a bit. I know I'll be treated like shit if I go out with a walking stick, but if I dress as if I'm upper/middle class it balances out. Same logic applies, if I am fat and fancy, no abuse.

Understandable. I suspect the terminology probably comes from those platforms where frank discussion of the content would be censored? I guess you use other platforms to explain the context of the sexual content, and direct readers to that? Nothing screws up publishing as much as marketing.

I wouldn't describe a non-scifi story by how "hard" the science is, so describing books that aren't erotica by how sexually explicit they are seems silly?

I have always been tall and fat. I have always been "too much." I have always felt like the world was built on a smaller scale than me.

It is becoming increasingly clear that I am the UK's last surviving megafauna.

*moose noises*

Pretty sure this was the core moral dilemma in DCs Identity Crisis too?

Welcome to Deep Lake signpost

I don't buy new ttrpgs often, as I'm thoroughly aware I won't have the time to play them, but just hearing a little bit about Public Access got me. I even did the unthinkable and backed it on Kickstarter.

The integration of the themes of discomfort and nostalgia into the mechanics is incredible.

Disgusting. Do it again.

fairly sure I'd have a headache 24/7 if I was in Quandrix...

Same hat. That's why I left. Well that and all the *gestures at x*
