check this out, "Harlequin rabbits" are actual animals and not from an awesome furry take on 40K

look at these guys, they look so SOFT! I really hope they're good natured, I know exactly nothing about pet rabbits but it'd be a shame if they weren't gentle and nice.
If 'disco' places time squarely in the 70s, then the 'inferno' is presumably for lighting cigarettes. They're actually singing about chainsmoking.

holy shit this is a surprisingly listenable instrumental
it's wild how zweihander looks like polearm more than sword use. Wonder if that was sword technique diverging as some evolution of longsword?
naginata/nagimasa might wind up equivalent to zweihander, a long blade for big sweeping circular movements that you can shorten through your grip in a pinch - something in between halberd/yari and sword (especially because katana are shorter weapons). Now I'm wondering if no-dachi were way more swordsmith bragging rights to show up as often.
Woke up with acid reflux and slightly anxious and thought; you know, it's been a while and I'd been thinking about it for a while, might it be worthwhile to have a half edible as a way of tackling consistent but low anxiety? That seems to have been around a lot the last week or so.
So waiting for that to kick in.
so I already had the blinds open to watch the rain and lightning, and I'd just turned the lights off when I realized this was PERFECT to sit in my chair and play

oh yeaaaaaaaah
The latest bathroom reading is October '84's Dragon Magazine, in which the PCs can go visit Gladsheim, home of the Norse gods (and a few others apparently PCs don't want to visit like uh... Bast?), so here's a list of spells which won't work and penalized class abilities (also, you probably can't get anywhere by climbing Yggdrassil).
Old AD&D was full of stuff this offputting like class requirements and I'm having a "how did this get off the ground without being heavily house ruled?" moment.
Gender stuff
The ongoing “is Jon trans?” saga.
Today I was thinking about how my desire to be a girl is confused by how I really hate being the official bad guy for being male. Then I thought; even with how desperate I am, “I wish I were a girl [even if just to dodge blame]” is not something cis men think.
This doesn’t clarify whether I’m “I want HRT and FFS” trans or whether if I can sometimes wear skirts, use she/her pronouns and not have the goddamn body hair, I’ll be okay.
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.
