I suspect Han’s Tauntaun dies not because it’s ill-suited to the cold, but because without the shelter of geography or the collective warmth of the herd it simply cannot survive the severe temperature drop of night on its own
@morecivilized.bsky.social loving the Empire discussion but can’t help think about Musk Ox during the Tauntaun convo. I suspect like many riding animals on earth, Tauntauns are a herd species, and like Musk Ox, are fine during day on Hoth, but rely on the herd to survive temperature drop at night
Working in restaurants sucks for a lot of reasons, long hours, low pay, social isolation due to scheduling, but I’ll be honest: There’s nothing quite like the feeling of “IM FREE AND SO POWERFUL, NOBODY WILL INTERRUPT ME DOING ANYTHING” after work at like 3 AM, even if you just clean litter boxes
There’s not a religious ideology on earth more offensive to me than the concept of “Intelligent Design”. Like, motherfucker, have you ever been over 30, with knees or a SPINE? WHY WOULD A JUST AND LOVING GOD DO THAT
Char before every fight with Amuro
Toxic, tbh
Daily comix says “sup”
Shouts out to farts, gotta be one of the top five ways bodies are good, actually
Having depression and being Big Mad and having someone important to you going through a Big Health Thing while also running a goblin brain OS is awful because it’s all too much with too many feelings but also you Can’t Stop
I’m just saying, let one of the NPC classes catch a W
Alternatively let me play as like a 27 year old accounts manager who’s using their recent layoff as an opportunity to finally pursue their dream of being a pokemon master
Tbh just give me like a rusescape-ass open world pokemon rpg
Full custom character creation, career options outside pokemon master, player alignment and story paths, the works
Also if they never beat you make them the mini-boss before the leader of Team Whatever, using experimental underground elixirs and potions to compensate for their lack of skill
Make the rival character an unrepentant piece of shit again
I wanna stomp him ass
Job hunting is a genuine nightmare, and then on top of that the cost of everything keeps rising as the only genuinely AI-proof jobs, which require real, skilled humans, are often some of the most massively undervalued and underpaid jobs around (service industry, labor, shipping, etc)
Have we considered getting doctors, en mass, to simply start denying care to health insurers yet? Just like “oh you work for who? Yeah gtfo”
America has no use for “hedge fund managers” and “venture capitalists” like dude just say your dad bought you into Yale and you have no useful skills. I’d take 10,000 trans lesbian blacksmiths over a single venture capitalist. Learn a real skill or chug bleach.
Taking Back Sunday cover band except all the songs are about Garfield and it’s called Taking Back Monday
Ran my first proper session of #dnd on Wednesday and everybody is already all spooked and suspicious and we haven’t even gotten into the good shit. I’m so delighted, exactly the response I wanted to a spooky scary mystery game
every poster thinks they are casually sharing their passing thoughts; every replier thinks they are critiquing a manifesto

Holy shit y’all, you realize this means we get new Ashton art?! Lets go!
Love how many old fantasy anime shows are just D&D. Record of Lodoss War? That’s just the cliffs notes of somebody’s D&D campaign
The city of Atlanta just doxxed 116,000 residents who signed the petition for a referendum on Cop City. There must be consequences for this.
It’d be real cool if all my friends could get time off on the same days so I could run this gottdang D&D campaign
Everyone should go check out the most recent release from Atlanta grindcore outfit Foxwound, shit goes hard
Anytime I go into work, I can’t help but wonder how many more people would enjoy their jobs if their jobs came with a living wage.
Gotta be The Witch or The Ritual for me, I’ll put those on for literally any reason
One Piece is cool cause it’s about how if you want to have cool adventures with your friends and keep them close to you, eventually you’ll have to go to war with the government
