this was SUCH a good event, very intentionally structured and welcoming. big thanks to @dpandaheart.bsky.social and Breanna for putting it together. I’ll definitely be at the next one!

I was annoyed when the d&d movie did this but then later when they revealed they were under the sheets cause the guy was hiding from a bug I was like alright that’s kinda funny

you know you've fucked up the cooling setup in your pc when you have the heat turned off in february and you're still contemplating getting a window ac unit for the office

I think it's bullshit that you can't take a nap in a bath

a hill I will die on is that work =/= capitalism, it's just that work sucks under capitalism. humans *should* work to build society together, I don't want robots to do it or whatever. but a society where working to enrich billionaires is necessary for survival? is bullshit

Britt Lower has this amazing thing as Helena whenever she makes a little joke where she smiles like she's never gotten to make a little joke before, and it's just, the acting in Severance is unreal

I hate how refreshing it is to read a book where, despite the characters being largely naked a lot of the time (it’s a fantasy about an indigenous islander group), there have been exactly zero women breasting boobily

it’s weird to me when party games come out with “adult” expansions, where they just add a bunch of dirty words or whatever. I think it’s corny and also more awkward than fun imo lol

idc how long I play a rogue in d&d, I will genuinely never get tired of rolling like a 32 on stealth and the dm going "Gervin has become fully incorporeal"

in d&d our druid disagreed with the rest of the party's choice to long rest and is currently protesting by wild shaping into a really loud and annoying bird to keep us awake all night

I know we talk about how irony-pilled we all are but I'll still take it over the fundamentally irony-immune world of LinkedIn where every other post sounds like an excerpt from The You You Are with an absolutely batshit AI image and dozens of comments saying "Wow, great insight! 💡"

update: I printed out a little at-home reading glasses test and (unfortunately?) I can read every single line with perfect clarity, it's just tiring. so this is gonna have to be an eye doctor question. I do not have vision insurance lol

I can't believe Color Gray managed to make a Golden Idol game that's *even better* than the first one (strategically cropped to avoid spoilers, also apologies for the terrible audio quality my nice mic broked ☹️ )

two streams in one week?? could it be?? more Rise of the Golden Idol! twitch.tv/singing_pigs

okay so, the last several jobs I've had I did what basically anybody recommends: check the going market value for the role, ask for the high end of that, and maybe you'll meet somewhere in the middle. and I just realized that *every* time they made a big deal about how much I'm asking for.

hey chat, if reading gives me a headache and I’m 38 years of age do I need reading glasses
