Man was having a hard day, almost started a fight with his manager right there, like…he was done. Idk what’s going on with him, but hey. Hope it gets better. He wasn’t there to make my day worse.

The horizon as strange creature is actually a great horror concept.

a key skill for working creatives is realizing when you’ve been handed a horse shaped box. IE, the goals & constraints are
- must have hooves
- must say “neigh”
- can’t have horns
- needs to be this tall
- rideable
the sooner you realize the box is horse shaped, the sooner you can deliver a horse

It is masterful, a bummer game that nails it. Deeply goofy, deeply unflinching about what it means to grieve. Hit me in the art history and biography feels. Also—a combat system that appeals to the Souls gamer in me.

And yes, even the big Actual Plays everyone loves still do this. A player succeeding in using abilities to create synergy is not actually a slam dunk against the GM. Ffs.

My old military history professor once said that notable battles don’t happen unless one side considerably errs to the point of grievous mistake. And y’all. We are racing to the bottom with this case.

Just me and Emily D. Baker yelling at the same time about the same shit. Watching whiffed slam dunk after whiffed slam dunk.

I'm not trying to make your kid into a successful adult (whatever that means to you). I'm just trying to make them feel better about being them. I'll probably never see them again and if all I can do is say You Are Good and I Like You, that's enough frankly

Ok. So Kawase Hasui was one of Jaoan's most prolific artists in the 20th century. He was part of the Shin-Hanga movement. And his stuff is unreal.

Writing into layout is sometimes the only thing that gives the dopamine a chance to thrive. It at least gets one away from the bleakness of the word processor for a while.

BUT WHAT DO I KNOW? I APPARENTLY CAN’T PERCEIVE HIGHER LEVEL MEANING IN DISCOURSE.

Maybe, just maybe, the rhetoric surrounding the experience of autism, within the lay literature and the clinical literature, isn’t an accurate picture. Maybe, just maybe, clinical literature doesn’t actually capture a phenomenology.

Maybe I don’t have the time in the conversation to puzzle out whether the specific intent is meant in this way or that. Silence apparently means assent in some conversational contexts.

Conventional permissibility for when reductionism is appropriate is vague as hell! Concluding that there’s a lack of ability simpliciter because folk dismiss that bramble patch in favor of, I don’t know, getting on with the conversation—that’s fucked up!

But I also know that is L U C K.
A more clever apparatus would probably mean I would have to rebuild and rebuild and rebuild. Shit’s like the Borg.
