@travisfw@troublewithwords Right, I’m so impressed! I only started closing tabs when I found out that Safari has a 500 tab limit. Because I reached it. 🫠
@satsuma@Vidyala@RogerBW soooo, next game? Obv not my turn to choose, but would like to throw Ark Nova and New York Zoo into the hat as I want to learn them without embarrassing myself against randoms 😅
I've said it once and I'll say it again: strobing effects don't add nearly enough to a show, game, or movie to be worth what they do to a significant percentage of the population.
@mishellbaker We once organized a Naxx pug run with a bunch of our guild and some other folks. We’re just about to pull Sapphiron, does anyone have any questions? Yes, one person says, I have epilepsy are there any flashes during this fight? This fight is nothing BUT FLASHES. She said she really wanted to do it anyway. We assigned a person whose job it was to type NOW just before each flash so she could close her eyes. She was okay and thrilled to have done it but it was so nerve wracking.
13 years ago Adam Smith wrote the finest piece of personal journalism ever written on games. every few days i sit down for breakfast and stare at the lone boiled egg on my plate, and start laughing.
"And there was always at least one among them, could have been anyone, who would order an egg. It’d just arrive, plonked down in front of them unceremoniously, a massive plate with a single egg in the middle of it. Even though it didn’t matter that they were eating an egg, in that it wouldn’t have any effect on their social standing or health, it really did matter because it never failed to make me smile.
Which poor bastard is on the eggs tonight, I’d think, watching as sweetmeats from every corner of the world were laid out in front of the gathering. And then, BAM, there it would be. Egg on a plate. No cress. No mayo. The purchaser wolfing it down, hoping no one had noticed, trying to hide their shame."
It's a mix of indie #games and #ttrpg games. If you want to be considered, tell me something funny to entertain me. I'm here all day! (I'll draw a name later today whenever I feel like it, because I'm here all day).
so it’s just badly sprained, but funny story the xray shows an old break on my foot; this means the last time I sprained it I actually broke it (I didn’t go to the doctor that time ☠️)
I am so, so excited for those of you who get to see the total #Eclipse today. If any of you want to reply to this with a detailed accounting of your experience and feelings, you will have a new internet friend.
@mishellbaker I don’t want to out her in case she doesn’t want to write about it but one of my best friends is in the path it totality and I told her I want to know EVERYTHING 😅
This weekend I’ve been playing “I Was A Teenage Exocolonist” (currently on sale via Steam so it was $20 instead of $37) and I wonder why I haven’t heard my pals talk about it before? It’s an SF RPG with a blue-haired protagonist (any pronouns, customize appearance/gender in late teens). The writing is good. You choose which skills/friendships to develop and acquire cards that are the main card game mechanics for challenges. Late game has romance options too. It even has a Murderbot reference 😅
Decided to treat myself to pho 🍜 today. I imagine my regular place low key knows my order now and thinks of me as the “no raw onions, please” lady. 😂 #food
