Discworld QOTD, from The Fifth Elephant

"‘I don’t know how to do officering.’

‘No one knows how to do officering, Fred. That’s why they’re officers. If they knew anything, they’d be sergeants.’"

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad

"‘Will she live happily ever after?’ he said.

NOT FOREVER. BUT PERHAPS FOR LONG ENOUGH."

Discworld QOTD, from Going Postal

"'You wrote everything down, Crispin?' he said. 'Why?'

Crispin looked appalled.

'Got to keep records, Reacher,' he said. 'Can't cover y' tracks if you don't know where y'left 'em. Then... can put it all back, see, hardly a crime at all.'"

You had the money, the power, and the fame. Where did it all go wrong? Why couldn't those sniveling little city dwellers see that you were meant to lead them? You're now a twice certified loser from a family of winners. Your father's name is on a bridge. Your name is next to a Wikipedia entry that says "sexual harassment allegations."

Here's a special message from Game Director Josh Sawyer, reflecting on what Turn-Based Mode means for Pillars of Eternity—and how community feedback helped shape it. youtu.be/_Mj6HObhD_8

Haha, yeah... The shadow of D&D cast over the ttrpg space is strangling people's framework for fantasy in a bad way.

Pic heavily related.

Super pleased this total dogshit remains the most popular and anticipated thing in the industry. Healthy, really.

she's just the coolest there ever was. lesbians rule!!

Discworld QOTD, from A Hat Full of Sky

"... it must be hard, being the best. You're not allowed to stop. You can only be beaten, and you're too proud ever to lose. Pride! You've turned it into a terrible strength, but it eats away at you."

perhaps it is a millennial disease, this sort of juvenile clinging to ‘cosy’ narrative. a world free of suffering or consequence, a convenient world, ignoring the work. Ignoring the work entirely

Discworld QOTD, from Night Watch

Discworld QOTD, from Eric

"Now he realized what made boredom so attractive. It was the knowledge that worse things, dangerously exciting things, were going on just around the corner and that you were well out of them. For boredom to be enjoyable there had to be something to compare it with."

The original Far Side Cow Tools Cartoon by Gary Larson. A cow stands on its hind legs behind a table, staring blankly at the viewer from behind its heavy brow ridge. On the table are four crudely made tools: a lump, a lump with an offset crooked handle, a long stick with hooked prongs at the end, and a crude handsaw with irregular teeth. In the background a barn sits on a hill. Caption reads, "Cow tools."

43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.

Discworld QOTD, from The Last Hero

Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..."

"not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..."

"...you're rich. If you have, whatever-"

"- yachts and planes and islands and you STILL need more? You're not rich."

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

"I asked ChatGPT" "I asked Grok" ok well I asked Gandalf and he said he has not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm

The actual play scene is disgustingly risk adverse and it shows in ways of almost a desert of trans women in the scene, a lack of darkly serious actual plays that deal with more serious real life themes and systems of violence and power, and cliques that perpetuate the status quo.

Discworld QOTD, from Maskerade

“She was a good witch. That was her role in life. That was the burden she had to bear. Good and Evil were quite superfluous when you’d grown up with a highly developed sense of Right and Wrong.”

There are a disturbing number of people who think like this. I've been seeing a rising number of commenters on my Hidden Gems roundup who are upset at being shown games they've never heard about, because if they haven't heard about it, it must be bad and thus it can't be a gem, so I must be lying.

Guillermo del Toro says “I’d rather die” than use generative AI

“My concern is not artificial intelligence, but natural stupidity. I think that's what drives most of the world's worst features”
