How far back in time can you understand English? An experiment in language change

This is incredibly cool, a story told in English where every paragraph steps back in time to an older form of English. I am super proud I got to 1000 before it was entirely incomprehensible

A white women with a white braid, black dress, apron and stockings, sits on a grave labeled Grimm. The desert around her is night with a red crescent moon in the sky

a blonde elf woman wearing a jade dress with ivy in her hair and around her legs. She sits on Astarion's grave while red bats fly towards the moon behind her

a brunette in a white lab coat, black gloves and black boots sits on a gravestone for Dr. Septimus Pretorius. Bats fly across the moon behind her

A collection of illustrations of crocodiles and alligators against a soft green and yellow background. They are playfully either swimming or loafing around, playing with fish, taking care of their young and chilling in the water. The crocodiles and alligators are mostly green and yellow, save for an albino alligator. They’re so loving and fun, these toothy friends!

YouTube video by goodtilthelastdrop Boondocks Teacher Joe Petto rant

When the Boondocks needed a guy to play a White guy confused about whether he had an N-word pass, they knew who to call. Who else could give this monologue and be even remotely sympathetic?

Between takes on set Peter Cushing painted wargaming figures.

He'd invite female costars to join him if they were new, looked lonely or being perved on by others on set.

"Scream Queen" Ingrid Pitt proudly showed me the little figures they painted together once. Kept them all her life #nerdlings

Fred Willard and Jim Piddock in Best in Show

"The biathlon, a lot on the line here, dreams of Olympic gold slipping away—it's gotta be tempting, Trevor Beckwith, to just aim the gun at the competition."

"Oh, no, there are regulations against even pointing—"

"You know, just wing him, don't take him out entirely. Even the playing field a bit."

Fred Willard and Jim Piddock as Buck Laughlin and Trevor Beckwith in Best in Show

"Up next, figure skating. What are they trying to figure out? Is it where all the hockey sticks and hockey pucks went. Two minutes in the penalty box, those skirts are not regulation equipment."

"They adhere to strict—"

"Or is it the figure of the skaters, the shapely—"

"<nervous laughter> No"

Fred Willard and Jim Piddock in Best in Show

"Another glorious day at Milan Cortina for the Olympic Games! I'm Buck Laughlin, joined by Trevor Beckwith—Trevor have you ever driven a Milan Cortina?"

"...I, I don't think—"

"Great mileage, needs a roomier back seat. Gas grass or 'uh-oh,' nobody rides for free. Trevor Beckwith, your thoughts."

If you see this, post a monster!

A space marine warband should be a handful of space marines and 3 dozens of chapter serfs/guards imo =w= There is such a huge gap between what a space marine is in the lore and setting and how they're played in the wargame, for balance reason i guess.

Hieroglyphics with translation texts below them that reads I made my body evolve through my own effectiveness. I am the one who made me. I built myself as I wished, according to my heart.

Just reminded myself how hard the ending of Coffin Text Spell 714 goes

“Make bad game? Fired. Make good game? Fired. Make incredibly successful game? Believe it or not, also fired.” Original source of meme is from Parks and Recreation.

the video game industry is a mess

I am manifesting a draftable Warhammer 40k MTG Set, and it's not these tiny "middle sized" sets. It's fucking huge, like mahoosive. Give me 500+ cards.

Here's what TikTok has been doing to our work & art without our consent.

'Smiling' fossil discovered in Northumberland The unusual looking fossil is estimated to be a few hundred million years old dating to the Carboniferous period.

Me: (chanting) teeth, teeth-

Other fossil hunters: teeth, TEETH

British Geological Society: [pounding its clipboard] TEETH, TEETH, TEETH!

I made a silent puppet film about Godzilla vs. Paul Bunyan.

Let the record show that I posted this before the game ended. I'm not angry about 3 on 3 because Canada lost, I'm angry because it's fucking horseshit.

But also, fuck the outcome :P Canada rules, America drools.

3 on 3 hockey to decide any game outside the prelims at the Olympics is horseshit.

Mamluk Faris - Trench Crusade The past of the Mamluk Faris is a dark one, laced with greed, corruption and betrayal.

This week, we’ve posted extended lore about the history of the Iron Sultanate! More specifically, that of the Mamluk Faris, an elite warrior caste whose past is steeped in greed, corruption and betrayal…
The incredible artwork is by the legendary Adrian Smith! www.trenchcrusade.com/lore/mamluk-...

Tarot Card Illustration, Death of the Major Arcana with my original D&D Character, Lich Zeno of Netheril. The palette is Black, white and mostly shades of blue. The textures contrast with the realistic figure. Zeno is a skeleton wearing a medieval metal helm, gauntlet and gorget, with a long cape draping down his shouders. He's riding a white horse and carring a banner that flows with the wind. Behind him the silhouette of a medieval city on fire. Death Card meanings are: transformation, endings, change, transition, letting go, release; (reversed) fear of change, repeating negative patterns, resisting change, stagnancy, decay. All of these are themes that greatly resonate with Zeno's story, which is one of destruction, loss and eventually change and Freedom.

Death. XIII

I don't know what game this is, but importing the Space Marine 2 character models into it was genius.
