A red dragonborn with a drawn golden crown on his head and a blue t-shirt with a dancing lobster over his torso. All images are added over top of the main one with the large white rectangles visible in a "poorly edited in paint" style of format

My DnD character spent his short rest winning a seafood eating competition. I now have a Burger King quality crown, and a sea blue t-shirt, both of which say "Larry's Lobster Shack Champion." The t-shirt has a dancing lobster on it. My wife made an artistic rendering.

Mushrooms! Stoned Ferret's Woodland Wanderings Jan 17, 2024 The explosion of fungal growth blew him apart In a sickening mockery of modernist art. Scattered remains rained down over houses Of peasants and noblemen, dousing the louses. Fear gripped the streets as the mushrooms took hold In flesh, gravel, masonry, all over mold Would come sprouting from eyeballs, took root under nails, But worst of all suffered the ones who inhaled. Alveoli ruptured by burgeoning spores Saw those of great strength dropping dead to the floor. As citizens fled from this nightmare come true New townships fell under its wicked purview. In under a month, the kingdom was buried, As new forms of life destroyed the unwary.

Mushrooms apocalypses are fun. Not for anyone involved, but that's on them for being characters in a work of fiction they have no control over.

I hate requesting refunds on Steam games, especially when it's a smaller developer, but on the other hand I hate playing games that pace themselves like molasses dripping from a tree in the dead of winter. I feel like this one is on both of us, honestly.

BlueSky is fun because you're scrolling along, minding your own business, then BOOM. Some dude's dick and balls filling up your computer monitor.

I finally understand how women feel when they get an unsolicited dick pic. Put that floppity fuckin baby carrot away before I send it to your family.

I’m watching that Exploding Kittens show, and it’s actually pretty fucking funny. I assumed it would be dogshit because obviously one would assume that, but I’m glad I was wrong.

Back to the simple natural order of things…….. not human arrogance based on destruction of our water,air, environment for profit…… for the 1%

Dubious Margins Stoned Ferret's Woodland Wanderings Jan 26, 2024 Bloodshot eyes behind horn rimmed glasses, A low-grade toupee and the fattest of asses. At a cardboard desk, sat staring into space, Losing people millions, stuffing sweets into his face. Dotting t's and crossing i's, his files make no sense, He lost the Smith account because he sold their stock for cents. His coworkers are fuming, sick of fixing his mistakes, As he eats lunch with Patrick Ewing, dining on fine steaks. When he's reprimanded, he just nods his head and smiles, His minds a blank, devoid of any thoughts for quite a while. The CFOs in panic mode, the firm is in a bind, This dubious accountant tries to kick back and unwind. The company is bankrupt, people rage at him in spite, He shouts "4:20, blaze it, bro!" and skates into the night.

In honor of my favorite holiday, as well as #NationalPoetryMonth, enjoy my piece "Dubious Margins." He's the worst fuckin' accountant you've ever seen, but thankfully he's not yours.

Steam Workshop::Twilight Imperium IV

It's on Tabletop Simulator
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/...

Hell yeah, time to go download it. Thanks for letting me know!

If I had $150 to piss away on a board game, I’d be playing a six person game of Twilight Imperium with myself right now.

It's like watching Bryan Cranston go from Hal on Malcolm in the Middle to Walter on Breaking Bad. Gotta love that range.

The absolute whiplash of seeing William H Macy as the dad in Pleasantville, and then seeing him play Frank on Shameless.

I built one Earth Recultivator so far purely because they’re such a resource dump, but the beavs were so happy when it finally launched. The dance halls were full to bursting that night.

I restarted a couple of times on the first map, and started terraforming everything. I have about 60-80 water turbines in one long trench that generate like 20,000 HP at their peak. The farms are all set up around a reservoir I can close off, so the foods always good and the lights stay on. +

Hour one: haha fun beaver game

Hour twenty: five generations died working on this project, but the Badtide can be fully rerouted. At last, we are safe.

“The developers of Hell Let Loose are working on an extraction shooter!”

The gaming community when they hear “extraction shooter, MOBA, or Battle Royal.”

"Here's a quick, easy recipe for when you're too tired to cook."

Uses four knives, three cutting boards, five bowls, seventeen ingredients, a stand mixer, and an oven, has a prep time of 45 minutes and cooks for 60 minutes.

I just spent ten fuckin’ hours playing Twilight Imperium with one of my friends and his friends group. It took two hours to setup. We didn’t even come close to finishing. I’m so excited for next time, that was some A+ social interaction. Now, to speak to fucking no one for the next 24 hours.

Back in 2009 me and some friends saw Lynyrd Skynyrd on a Tuesday, and they didn’t play Tuesday’s Gone at any point. I’m still salty about it.

That and when Blue Oyster Cult didn’t play Veteran of the Psychic Wars. I knew the odds were low, but I had hope.

Please help Vampy if you can.

My painting LAKESHORE

I think my favorite work place fuck-up was when I set a hot oven lid (~375C) next to a cool oven lid, and said to myself “I’ll remember which is which.”

I did not remember which was which.

My finger prints were burnt into that lid until it finally broke a few months later.

Best memory there.

I just looked up Screamer and the art style looks great, I might have to check that out someday. My best friend had one of the Twisted Metal games, and we played it a ton.

Never heard of Screamer, but I do remember loving MX/ATV games when I was kid, like N64-PS2 era. Vigilante 8 on N64 was so good. It was basically just a Twisted Metal knockoff, but they did a great job on it.

I've never been a huge fan of games that are pure racing, but I love combat racing games like Burnout and Split/Second. Mario Kart or similar are always a good time with friends, and some of the Need For Speed games are fun, but that franchise is kinda hit or miss.+

Damn, I had no idea all that dropped. I might have to check that game out again then.

I looked at the art style and it looks like the art department went "Yeah, we can rip off Fortnite, who gives a shit? No one's gonna play this fuckin' digital hemorrhoid anyway."

I had no idea that was happening, but you're right, and that makes everything make sense. It really wasn't enough to release generic, bland music, he also has to come for gaming. Dude's the human embodiment of the phrase "this mayo is too spicy."

"Last Flag" is the current generic cash grab I'm talking about. Fucking Concord-likes
