Have a blast!!

What they needed there was a bottle glue, but I'll allow it.

Yo, cookies overlay, what say we cut straight to the chase and you offer me "Reject All" as the default eh?

I just verified my age by telling Mrs. Rankin to stop listening in of the party line.

Mushroom!

That was one of mybfavorite posts ever.
I'm glad it still brings you joy - it was brilliant watching his head expand

I would watch or listen to a podcast discussing Delta Green, but not an AP.
AP's are just not that interesting, but a discussion / after report ...

Someone could just leave the Epstein Files on the doorstep of The Guardian or Salon or something

You are welcome!
I'm now perusing your other pictures - I LOVE the dino & rider.

This is a good start to my day.
:)

That looks like an actual, real machine. My brain went "cool, someone machined a miniature war machine out to brass and steel".
This may be the very best work I have ever seen.
Brilliant work.

Wow. I don't remember ever hear that song. It is indeed very disturbing.
Once again you've brought a little more darkness into view.
Thanks!

a man says people were going to die Alt: Clark Kent gestures as he says, “People were going to die!”

The thing that some folks willingly misunderstand about Superman is that he’s a firefighter, not a cop. For him, the legalities are somebody else’s problem and he sees his job as simply helping as many people as he can. Obviously you can deep dive on that, but fundamentally: firefighter, not cop.

If I see one more 'author' claim that 'everyone uses gen AI for covers, so I might as well' I am going to scream.

NO THEY AREN'T! SAYING IT DOESN'T MAKE IT SO! I AM BEGGING YOU TO ACTUALLY LISTEN TO THE COMMUNITY THAT HATES GEN AI! DO YOU EVEN WANT A CAREER?!

GEN AI IS THEFT 😭

We've been on the "Made in Canada" kick since the evil clown started his tarriff bullshit months ago.
Glad you could join us Tom, welcome to Canada! Hope uou are enjoying Vancouver Island.

It's one of my favorite movies.
It's just a fantastic film from start to finish.

All this:

1. AI is built on theft.
2. AI creates disinformation.
3. AI is already manipulated by billionaires to purposefully do so.

4. AI text is garbage, full of meaningless, unconnected phrases.

There may be fine uses in summarizing text and research, etc. But not in AI as it mostly exists.

Quicksand!!
I miss being terrified of there being quicksand near any given creek.
All mud was potentially deadly!

All you need now is a scarf and a stetson.

Nice!

The spear of Longinus is in the Vatican, so I doubt anyone has that.
I have the Cthulhu/Elic printing of Dieties & Demigods if that counts.

That last paragraph really sums it up.

Republican supporters are all either evil or cowards. Ignorance is long past being a defence.

OK- off to Steam to make an acquisition!!
Thank you very much sir!
(It feels very weird to have this sort of conversation/interaction with one of my favorite authors.)
😀

What is the game, I want to shoot Nazis through the head!!

Neither.
Both sound like a crappy novel idea. I really wish some dm's would just write their novels instead of imposing this sort-of crap on their players.
