Hey, call me Val. I like elder scrolls, gryphons, weird lore, DnD, writing, and bad puns. Aro-Ace, non binary, just here to have a quiet corner of the internet to share things with.

The Unimaginable Scale Of The Universe

Looking at art as Art - something that doesn’t have to swaddle you up in emotional comfort and confirm you - gives you the chance to think about what you hold as moral and why. If you want art to agree with you all the time, you erode your ability to question the world and yourself

A fun fact about McCarthyism is that just two and a half years after he was condemned and censured, Sen. Joseph McCarthy drank himself to death at 48.

Fevers break. Petty tyrants fall. Censorship and persecution drive good people to stand together and fight back.

Gaming update: Tainted Grail, Fall of Avalon has been scratching the "new elder scrolls" itch I've had since Skyrim became stale. Oblivion remastered is like revisiting a childhood friend; Avalon is like finding a brand new book series to fall in love with

When modding becomes available for Newblivion, I'd love to see someone give more love to the horses. Saddle bags, let us name them/feed them, give them more idle animations so they feel less like bicycles and more like living creatures. I might even try to do it myself? No promises

MORROWIND STARTER PACK

Images of people with headaches or putting their hands over their faces in disdain/disgust. Text says

"Am i supposed to miss 70% of my attacks?"
"Why am i so slow?"
"I am a desolate husky, devoid of meaning"
"just HIT THE KWAMA"
"10/10 best game ever made"

I made the regrettable decision to look in the discussion steam page to see if anyone could help with a crash.

Trogdolyte man-babies are having a full melt down about "type 1/type 2" """controversy"""

Playing the oblivion remake after growing up on oldblivion is like putting on prescription glasses for the first time.

This seems to trigger the MAGAts, so, yea, their monthly reminder of what THEY did.

More BG3 update with mild act 2 spoilers. I'd completely ignored halsin on accident, and went the whole way through without realizing i was supposed to talk to him. :S. I'm still debating with myself on if I should reload a previous save to fix that or not. Sorry, Hal!

BG3 update: I'm in love with both Gale and Astarion, am very glad poly mods exist, and my god are the moon towers kicking my ass. ;~; but I finally got more of everyone's backstory and can I just say: I've never loved a group of characters as much as I've loved all of them. None are duds. A+mazing.

I know a lot of us have doubts about whether we could organize a potluck or book club, nevermind a revolution.

So if you need to start with potlucks and book clubs, try that for starters.

A lesson that I learned all too late in life is that people do not want to be around those who make them feel β€œless than”. Your success, positivity, your mere existence can trigger them. You can’t control how you make people feel despite your best intentions.
Thus be aware of your environment.
