@frost as someone who once thought cornbread was *hilarious* while stoned, I highly approve of the idea of weed cornbread or cornbread with weed butter

@chimerror a national myth is useful to state control any time or place (recent Italy is a great example; fascists pulled on long gone imperialism rather than acknowledge Italy’s roots in fragmented states which then only broke from Austria-Hungary because the latter were defeated by Prussia, THEN they lost badly to Abyssinia). And of course “useful to state control” isn’t the same as “ultimately beneficial” or “factual”…

re Pathfinder “Inner Sea Taverns” splatbook;

ARRRR lad, we chum the waters here from the tavern not eight yards from the jakes, fer nought feels more “pirate” than knowing them snapping jaws and razor sharp teeth be only a little below yer bare jacksy! ARRR! Yarrrr.

@chimerror Marius and Sulla. And then all the other guys, Caesar, Pompei etc. I think a firm boundary between Republic and Empire is a lot blurrier than say between Severan and say Flavian rulers. But of course the Romans themselves bought the idea that they were these noble people before it went south (see Suetonius).

Dude! Look what someone posted in its entirety to YT!

One of those “you can’t have patriarchy without matriarchs demanding their experience be morally good” sort of deals.

Probably not a new discovery to most of y’all but I was thinking part of why TERFS hate transness so much is it calls intensely misogynistic indoctrination into question. You can’t feel all moral for your suffering as a woman when someone simply walks away from womanhood… or they walk IN, and now you have to face your years of sexist misery not winning the suffering competition. I’m sure there’s a similarity fucky male equivalent.

interrupting the banjo concert with enthusiastic shouts of “a queer sort o taown at the mouth of the Manuxet River”

@Kyresti “cookie, maybe?” or “cookie, n’est-pas?” would be a good equivalent. I picked up some very Brooklyn phrasing from my family.

My good deed for the day was pointing an older well intentioned white lesbian onto King’s “How Long Not Long” speech. For this I should get at least one cookie nebbech.

@BlaiddYote what here? *looks around frantically *

“Finding my dream job” yeah? what if my dream job is drawing? What if it’s working for a museum? What if the dream aspects of the job are an okay place to stay at but pays enough to survive AND travel AND have more hobbies? Capitalists literally don’t think of shit like that.

Exciting pulp adventure soundtrack except every time the little militaristic leitmotif plays the Germans need to loudly pull back the bolts on their MP39s. Every time.

Decided The Map Room Dawn or Out to Sea are tied for my favorite John Williams movie track.

Was thinking about social media in terms of picnics;
LinkedIn is a picnic with coworkers
Facebook is a picnic with relatives
Instagram is a picnic with the model railroad club, pretty good but basically you don’t get any interaction friendlier than looking at models
Twitter is a picnic with friends and fellow hobbyists except now the park’s full of billboards and your chances are of running into someone’s political rally are fairly good
