Sound up for Edward the fluffy black cat purring like a fiend:

Boy sends himself a machine to go get his mom to help him get the guy who helped build the machine to go deal with another machine that was sent to deal with the boy.

“Verify your age” I bought official Star Wars action figures by Kenner for $4.99 at the grocery store.

“Verify your age” Well, it would take the good part of an afternoon to download a *single* AMV.

if a dinosaur farted into some tree sap and it formed a bubble and the resin turned into amber and 70 million years later you drilled a hole into the amber to release the bubble, could you smell the dinosaur fart?

Here’s a challenge to try on Weeb Wednesday: Take a job or title and make it unnecessarily gendered in a way more irksome than “saintess.” I’ll start: Hookress.

Viggo Mortensen did not break his toe kicking this helmet and stay in character so you could tell me AI is “inevitable.”

Bernard Lodge didn’t point a camera at its own feedback so you could tell me AI is “inevitable.”

One of my players took up HEMA after our first D&D campaign. I had been using Dexterity for most light/off-hand weapons point. His takeaway from sword fighting: “every blade is Dex-based except greatswords.” I didn’t adjust my list too much in response but it was good validation for my homebrew.

as someone that spent a few years hitting people with actual swords whilst also being hit by other people with actual swords (and tbh probably a lot more of the latter), my contribution to the latest TTRPG discourse about combat is that everyone should give hitting people with actual swords a go

Look at this Winnie the Pooh-assed cat.

Born & raised in Iowa, lived here all my life. I hate corn. Hate the smell, hate the texture, it’s the wrong kind of sweet in a vegetable. I don’t even like corn syrup in soft drinks. If it’s not popped or in a bread I don’t want to be within arms reach of corn.

Here I invite you to be a micro-heretic. To bring small shame on your people. Tell me about a highly praised thing in your hometown/area that all locals LOVE except YOU. I’m from the Seattle area. Taco Time is nothing special. Bland. Not horrible but not worth going out of your way. Now you go!

This is my cat Alphonse, sitting imperiously.

My bet is Lucasfilm pulls a Mortal Kombat 9 and rewrites the sequel trilogy by having Rey Star Wars travel back in time.

Adept, Engineer, Soldier, Sentinel, Vanguard, and Infiltrator? Or Explorer, Colonist, Hired Gun, Smuggler, Technician, Bounty Hunter? 🤔 Brawn, Agility, Intellect, Cunning, Presence, Willpower? …Wait, is gender the one you roll, or the one that lets you pick your powers?

I have been asked to share my 3-D printed and painted Dungeons & Dragons miniatures, so here’s a quote-post thread, starting with my current and old collection of beholders (more info in the alt text):

These actually replace my previous beholder gauths, which were printed in plastic filament at a larger size to preserve details. I opted for more colors on the new ones for variety and to better distinguish them on the table.

My brain, 24 hours later: “…It was supposed to be ‘industrial-grade Zoness slime’, you utter hack. You fool. This is why we don’t write more.”

What I find funny about the sudden Starfox Switch 2 announcement is that it’s exactly the kind of remake that’s been speculated for Zelda: Ocarina of Time for like the last six months, so either Nintendo has a bunch of these remakes in the pipeline or something is broken in the rumor mill.
