Is joking about exploding dogs for being dogs supposed to be funny?

If he was an incredibly intelligent human being he might have designed a better fucking TTRPG, among a myriad of other things.

This is just as surreal to me as it is to Leona. This changed the trajectory of everything.

Forced to endure the toilet thoughts of Europeans who claim songs like A Little is a Little Too Much makes the new Helloween not a power metal album, while ignoring the existence of a songs like Perfect Gentleman.

You cannot take the opinions of Wind Rose enjoyers seriously.

This does not change the fact that it is one of the most significant game releases of the past two decades, an incredible achievement all around for an indie. I say this as someone with no real dog in this fight.

Boomer ass talking point. This may shock you, but labor exploitation is not fine just because you're up front about it! They knew they could absolutely pay more and didn't.

A chart of gibberish, describing emotions associated with a particular frquency (e.g Anger at 150 hz). Please do not take this seriously.

Saw someone post this unironically and I can't believe I've been notching out Peace and Enlightenment for years now

Ozzy's management stole songwriting credits just like Cradle of Filth's does. Also, it wasn't Dani's singular vision considering the existence of Paul Allender and most of the original lineup.

Oh, remind me how much music the 'leader' of this band has written for this band? Because it's somewhere between 0% and 0% -- Dani is ONLY a lyricist.

Hello it’s me Sam Altman I have a zillion dollar idea it’s a chat bot that tells teenagers to kill themselves and you can generate csam with it and it poisons the air and water and it’s wrong most of the time and we’re going to put it in your refrigerator and stuff 👍 I need more money for this btw

Don't project, man. Nobody here is having an emotional reaction except you. "Haha I was just trolling" Speaking Swedish isn't going to cover you chiming in on a subject you didn't know anything about. As for a land I'll never know, I'll send you a postcard when we play there. :)

"Never heard of Sacramentum before." Yeah, then you probably shouldn't be speaking on this subject. Merely living in Scandinavia does not make you some sort of authority on this subject, and there's also plenty of melody in their music. Just take your L and move on.

It's not even a good pop song, honestly. Gonna go listen to Olivia Rodrigo to cleanse my ears of this.

I liked it better whan it was the tour hammering home the importance of hanging on to the people who mean something in your life and not the latest round of political accelerationism.

You cannot escape this discourse even in micro-niches of micro-niches, if I have to hear one more conversation about how Hellen, who released one EP in 1985, are a more significant Japanese band than Anthem, Earthshaker or X, 湖に溺れ死ぬ

ChatGPT gets crushed at chess by a 1 MHz Atari 2600 A cycle-exact emulation of the Atari 2600 CPU running at a meager 1.19 MHz is more than enough to utterly humiliate ChatGPT in a game of chess....

People can pay attention to multiple crises at once. Don't project your inability to maintain two parallel thoughts on others.

Haven't posted much here on account of having way too many balls in the air right now, but the Owlbear tour starts in a week:

Calling your shows 'rituals' is just Naruto running for metal bands.

I suppose Gundam pilots are also notoriously bad about reading signals from their preferred sex, but Alto Saotome is unable to determine that the two women literally pulling him back and forth between each other as they sing to him are both into him.

Epiphany: As much as I love Gundam, Macross protagonists are ultimateely more relatable for me because they by in large consistent of clueless neurodivergents who love giant robots and music and are incapable of interpreting the most blatant of signals from potential partners.

Returning to this account to say that if your profile picture on any social media platform on Al Gore's internet in 2025 involves you smoking a pipe you should be asked to leave. You are neither Sherlock Holmes nor J.R.R Tolkien, so exeunt, pursued by bear.

Purging all distraction and outside influence till I am reduced to an entity that does but four things - Writes his LANCER campaign, practices his band's music, paints miniatures and snuggles his cat.

Ugh, that sucks. Extremely glad I am now running a Lancer game and thus don't/can't use v13.

Be honest: What they really wanted was 5e Final Fantasy, like (sadly) most TTRPG players these days.
