The World of Darkness splat books were really good at immersing you in the setting, but the Mage tradition books really changed the way you viewed everything else. Nigh unplayable game, but amazing none the less.

Not so tough now, are you Dungeon Aster?

Sorry, but your special boys and girls are not exempt from criticism.

It's not that conservatives are mindless animals - it's that they don't care what you think. Targeting Republicans with pressure from the left is functionally useless. Targeting Dems is only mostly useless, so you do what you can with the tools you have.

It's just SO beautiful! 🥹

Pain is your body telling you that something is wrong. If you can afford it, go see a doctor.

Do Nebula views reward you better than YouTube ones? I'll click whichever link you offer me.

And then immediately turn it over to the United Nations.
But a better United Nations with less bullshit and tolerance for genocide.

Action item #934578 for a new administration: nationalize youtube.

Fun fact: the first time I ever encountered the Ship of Theseus was in the web-published version of John Dies at the End, and their version uses an axe.
"...and the ghost says, you're the man that murdered me and that's the axe you used to do it!"

Vibe shift. 😂

😂 I thought you were implying that you and Grey have an adversarial creative relationship.
Grey: Get a load of this freak! You think you can stat that up Rey?! Ha!
Rey: Here's an un-illustratable description I made up for a weird little guy. Good luck!

Do you own this software or is it SAS? It's SAS? It will ask for a raise. You'll be lucky if it doesn't steal all your data and hold it for ransom...and then ask for another raise.

Gotta have moments that feel like the most important thing that has ever happened to you and end a bit maudlin.

He'll never see this so we can say whatever we want!
Ken seems pretty cool.
Not like cool cool, but cool.

At one point there is a Banner with Bison and 1993 on it, so I think it's technically going to be a period drama. 😂

OMG IT'S GOT THE CAR BONUS STAGE!!!

I will never forgive this movie if it makes me like Ken.

Kind of weird for hadouken to be an ultra-special technique instead of just a thing people spam repeatedly. It makes the world-building very strange in unexpected ways.

100% will enjoy even if terrible.

Pedocon says what?

Koyaanisqatsi YouTube video by YouTube Movies

Anyway, these films are worth watching if you can get yourself in a meditative headspace and they're free on youtube.

I know from doing my kids' hair that this motion helps the fibers lock together, and to see it done so fluidly with such economy of motion is as beautiful as any ballet pirouette.

If you can't see it, they take two twisted cords of fiber and as they're crossing them, they're simultaneously rolling them along their palms to twist them tightly.

Watched Koyaanisqqatsi, now I'm enjoying Powaqqatsi, and this moment struck me with appreciation for craft expertise.

If stores don't like the way I do that job they should hire someone to do it the way they want it done.

Using AI like this is purely predatory.

I think this one was close behind it though:

That's the first set I remember building.

One of my players recently objected to an article I shared because it had the word diagetic in it. I teased him for being an anti-intellectual nerd and then we had some interesting conversations. 😂
