now noticing my problem with viewing life as narrative for convenience is wanting to reject it as "life doesn't work that way" is because I've been told that YES life is a narrative and it's someone else's story, I'm either supposed to be the background or comic relief villain. To make storytelling work as metaphor I now have to accept that plot isn't especially coherent and the only protagonist I have to work with is *me*. That's a thing to think about innit?

THAT I ENJOY THE ACT OF SODOMY

this was a joke btw, I've only once made enough noise that anyone banged on the floor here, and it wasn't last night
before the edible: they have passed like rain in the mountains, like wind in the meadow. the days have gone down in the west behind the hills into shadow
after the edible and most of a Slough Feg album: SHIELDS SHALL BE SPINTERED! SPEARS SHALL BE SHAKEN! HAMMER OF THE GODS WILL DRIVE OUR SHIPS TO NEW LANDS! A NEW MOON, A BLUE HAWAII, A WET WILLY TILL THE WORLD LIES RUINED!
Tonight’s #drawings, I’m real mixed about the dwarf mecha pic; maybe I should stay away from anything that looks vaguely modern military, it leaves sort of a bad taste. But then there’s only one way to find out if you like drawing something right?
so earlier today I said Dark Sun and Ravenloft are great settings but not really D&D - Dark Sun might be Fate since it's all about shifting conditions and weird talents more than your gear, I wasn't sure about Ravenloft.
Then I realized Spelljammer is not just D&D but 4e. Weird talents and powerful monsters are streamlined to everyone's special action each round and it's vital to know where you are aboard a ship.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
