On Eldritch Beasts and the "Witnessing this descends you into madness" trope 

I hadn't thought of this in words before, but it's definitely a resonant feeling and I'm seriously glad someone did.

Also racists like Lovecraft and xenophobes of all stripes can get fuuuuuuucked

holly starred this and now i'm thinking about fluffy glaceons

why the fuck is there a bank called "fifth third bank" anyway

i've noticed that we've started kind of mentally dividing dates into "before 2020" and "after 2020"

which we also did with 2016, come to think of it

I wrote a short gift story! 

So yeah I promised @Felthry a little while ago that I would write a short story for it exploring the kink of modularity, and I took a bit too long but it's done now!

Content warning for:
- It's furry. Also has robots in passing
- Modularity (that is, detachable and swappable body parts)
- Taurs I guess

computers as crystal magic 

there's a timing crystal that gives a heartbeat to several thinking crystals that talk to each other and to memory crystals along carefully arranged passageways of highly purified (magically-receptive/electrically-conductive) metal, with another thinking crystal purely devoted to dreaming up shapes and telling illumination crystals how to light up in patterns to produce those shapes for the (mage/user) to view so they can see what the other thinking crystals are thinking. the (mage/user) can tell the whole apparatus what to do with special hand gestures while holding yet another assemblage of crystals

Second sketch of the night (after the one I misposted to my other Masto account then reposted here). A jackolith, combination of two 20th-century mythical creatures, neither of which were really intended to be taken seriously. One was a punchline, the other a game mechanic. But they both exist as ideas, and that's given them lives of their own too. And it means they can be combined.

it bothers me that people can get so deeply into this sort of nonsense
