Heaven is the solitary space you find at a party with a hundred strangers and your best friend - whose party it is - to sit and pretend you're busy on your phone, while your friend flits about and mingles and looks so happy that you're happy to stay a bit longer, for her, even if it kills you inside

Today in "there must be a German word for this", I present, without comment:

Niederschlagswasserbewirtschaftungsrecht (rainwater management law)

I bid you good day.

After the A-Team edit, this is probably the best parody video I've made, and that's without patch 8. You ain't seen nothing yet. #baldursgate3

Yeah, maybe. I'd love to know for sure. My brain won't easily let this go. :)

A wanted poster containing the words "Have you seen this painting?" And a description that reads: "Synopsis: The player observes cave paintings left by primitive tribes of the denizens of the Underdark: driders vs. mind flayers, from when Lolth first descended. Passive History check reveals more information."

A list called "WHERE IT ISN'T": Sussur Tree, Noblestalk Area, Beholder Arena, Fish People Caves (unless I'm an idiot), Myconids, Mushroom Circle cave, Mage Tower, Duergar Beach, Grymforge, Phase Spider Caves, Zhentarim Cave

Gonna leave this here as well, just in case. Calling all Baldur's Gate 3 enthusiasts! Have you come across these cave paintings? Where? #bg3 #baldursgate3 #underdark

Aaaah that's so cool!

Thank you! :) It's a nonsense but I'm super proud of it.

It's a blessing and a curse.

ASTARIONTOK I need you. Would you click here pls? vm.tiktok.com/ZNddMQHVo/ I want to spite the algo over there. (It's restricted, you see. Because a shirtless video game man is just too spicy. Grrrr.)

Hahaha 😂

Me too! Although everything I've seen so far is ridiculous - I'm not going near those "dances" - I'm excited to see what else it can do.

The brainrot was particularly strong this week. My obsession with Baldur's Gate 3 is going nowhere, it seems. #bg3 #bg3edits

Hey. You've got this. <3

What a day to be online. What a preposterous day.

Hell yeah! Monstah!!

I'll concede that yes, it's a good word. :)

Oh no it's made its way here? Darn.

@annamerlan.bsky.social Lookit who's on the telly in Germany this morning! Made me smile.

These are two of my very favourite Andrews!

I'd successfully forgotten about the end of BSG. Now I'm disappointed all over again.

Now I am, and it's a great idea. "I'm not fucking late, you wanker, I'm bang on time. Fuck off."

The Baldur's Gate 3 entry in my Steam library, showing a total playtime of 146 hours. And I've only just started Act 3.

It's a problem. I have a problem.

"Fixed some cameras that couldn't contain the force that is Astarion". Larian out here with a masterclass in patch note writing. I constantly just want to hug that entire team. Baldur's Gate is a wonder.

Darth, I helped write a paper for my state's government, outlining ways to help our cultural institutions become more accessible and giving them a concrete list of inclusive measures to finance. If even one museum or theatre benefits from this, I'll be extremely proud.

A screenshot from Baldur's Gate 3, showing the player character and Astarion, modelling drow armor. There's text on the image but it's really not important, I just couldn't get a better screenshot.

I call this one "The Hottest Couple in Faerun". I'd like to thank Larian for putting the Black and Summer Green Dye in the game. LOOK AT THEM. These people do three-point-landings just getting of out bed. I love this game so much.

I have been murdered by this videogame. Curse you, BG 3. I love you.

Absolutely not me playing Baldur's Gate for 12 hours straight and wearing out my F5 key, until the pretty vampire finally fell in love with my character. Not. Me. Look away.

I hurt myself liking this, but I do. I do. Well done.

Have some conversational German:

"Ich war durch" - lit. "I was through" - means "I got soaked".

"Ich war mit durch" - lit. "I was through with [no object]" - means "I was knackered".

Incidentally, both are true for your currently drenched, friendly neighbourhood German.

Fingers crossed!
