* re-listening to Mule Variations, one of the greatest albums ever *

Tom, you just had me nearly in tears about a young girl dying needlessly, and now I’m supposed to be happy you’re having a huge barbecue? Admittedly a huge barbecue sounds pretty good about now.

"flavor text" in Pathfinder supplements, typically vinegar and salt but occasionally mesquite barbecue flavored

D&D adventure idea; ghost tower 

The PCs decide to jack those items but;
* the tower’s full of besiegers and guards
* they’re basically in a countdown, where if they don’t get out they’ll blow up in the past along with the tower, wizards, and the army fated to become undead
* the PCs looting magic items suggests Scziss couldn’t use them and created the current timeline
* BUT if the PCs grab the loot and get out within their own time it’s entirely possible Scziss escaped with them (2/2)

D&D adventure idea; ghost tower 

In a forest haunted by mindless undead, a tower appears then disappears annually. The undead are too dangerous for most locals to be curious. The PCs come into a map of when the place WASN’T a forest but the wizard’s tower of Scziss the Mad. That tower supposedly fell in a huge explosion when Scziss and his opponent’s spell combined, and contained a huge orrery which Scziss used to predict a star map of the future as well as a batch of powerful magic items.

Brot verkaufen aus ein Mann im Brussels
1,93 und auf Muskeln gefuelt
Ich frage, "verstehen Sie sich meine Sprache?"
Er lachelt und gibt mir ein VEGEMITEN-SANDWICH
und er fragt;
kommen Sie aus ein LAND von WUNDER?

Anyway since there are no dumb little tightened today, here’s yesterday’s dumb little drawing.

Commenting on the rumor of Elon Musk as a “babyfur;”

Now I’m imagining him reinventing the diaper as a sheet of gunmetal colored aluminum which doesn’t breathe, retain moisture or easily fold.

oh no, apparently I've established the musical association of "The Blue Danube Waltz" with "being happily stoned" in my subconscious

Oh YEAH it’s Hans Guderian’s classic collection of folk songs, “Panzer Lieder”!

Oh dude! Battle Beyond the Stars is FREE on YouTube and someone uploaded The Abominable Doctor Phibes and Danger Diabolik which are two of my favorite movies EVER!

1) characters have different big archetypical roles with visual hooks.

2) the game's roots are in dungeoneering - so visually exciting underground complexes like Moria or the Temple of Doom - but social interactions are things like a noble's costume ball, buying stuff from a merchant, or negotiating with a Thieves' Guild.

3) Like WoW the setting is "everything." You might encounter 1700s pirates, Ray Harryhausen monsters, Tolkien orcs, and Gothic vampires in the same game.

CW food photo; soy sauce chicken with hot and sour cabbage. I was too burned out to make the Awesome Sauce for the chicken which is okay, this turned out a lot better than my first batch!

AMV of The Ramones’ “Cretin Hop” only it’s all images of Minoan bull-jumping

just one of those "wow I really do go through life hypervigilant sometimes, don't I?" moments

Since I'm still learning (probably pretty basic) Chinese history, Kaifeng shows up as more significant. I'd first heard of the city years ago because it's home to China's natively Jewish population, so I keep expecting it to be fairly far west - but it's in Henan, on the Yellow River, in the center.
