a close up of a woman 's face with a man in the background Alt: A close up of Dedra Meero's face on the TV series Andor with Director Orson Krennic in the background, placing his finger down on top of her head, as she realizes with horror that her mistake has just exposed the Death Star Project to the Rebel Alliance and that she will face the full blame for the security leak.

This feels like when Dedra Meero found herself on the receiving end of ISB interrogation, and you love to see it.

It's such a rare and wonderful opportunity. I'm always grateful for the chance to act or sing someone else's words.

I have relatives who complain the U.S. is becoming more like New York City. HECK YES. I want to go, "I'm in the mood for Tajik food tonight," and then walk over to a Tajikistan restaurant! I want to learn Farsi so I can thank an Iranian chef! The world is wonderful! I want to be closer to all of it.

a close up of a woman 's face in a video game with dreadlocks and a blue scarf . Alt: A close up of Aloy, the female protagonist of the video game "Horizon Forbidden West", holding a small pendant in the shape of the Earth to her heart and then closing her eyes.

That game and the community that grew around it gave me so much joy. I mean, I've bonded with *elected representatives* over Horizon! That's awesome! โค๏ธ

It shows that the determination and compassion to help others can surmount any odds, and inspire others to do the same. I'm so grateful for that. ๐ŸŒŽ

Time to start flipping tables. Vote in the primary on March 3, or better yet, get out the vote early! Early voting runs until February 28th, and February 20th is the last day counties will accept mail-in ballots.

You know, if we all chip in about $600 bucks, I think the people of Seattle can just collectively buy the team.

And fellas, feel free to deploy any of these when we hear creepiness directed at someone else.

I firmly believe that half of where we are with people saying quiet parts out loud is because people were met with awkward silence instead of polite but firm accountability and felt emboldened.

I mean, I dig everything this dude is saying, but I'm not in politics, so I can just tweak the noses of Christian Nationalists by pointing out that a nation based on Christ's teachings would be socialized medicine, huge social services for housing and food, open borders, probably full Communism.

The Escapist pivoting to AI doesn't shock me. It's an inevitable end, given the way it was going.

We put *so* much effort into The Escapist back in the day. I can't even tell you how hard we worked. People were proud to read it, proud to write for it. We did a lot of cool stuff.

Ah, well.

That's fair. I suppose I tend to color narrative relationships with my own perspective on romance, friendships, etc. The idea of controlling someone or being controlled is just horrifying.

It's always tough to roleplay blood bonds, because I am *absolutely* playing against my type.

Oh, for sure. My question assumed consent, lines/veils, etc. have already been discussed above table.

I'm curious about it mostly from a narrative standpoint. The Kiss is a pleasurable experience, so it makes for a fascinating (and risky) dynamic when that relationship is sought out vs. imposed.

15.02.2026 01:42 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Well, the first issue that comes to mind is how to handle consent in-game, when most of Kindred life is non-consensual.

I mean, there are exceptions of course, but most people aren't okay with someone drinking their blood or turning them into a monster. Especially when considering Disciplines.
