Being a cave troll locked deep inside a datacenter's backup tape storage vault was one of the best slacker jobs I've had. https://awoo.space/media/qB5AYw1zPoxCdM9rRN0
My first (and so far only) Transformers OC was a hard drive. In robot mode, it used the read/write head array as a claw weapon, and a platter as a shield. I have a bad sketch somewhere.
... specifically, it was a Western Digital 80gb 7200rpm ATA/100 8mb cache drive. Was super cutting edge at the time. I'm such a nerd. https://awoo.space/media/sH78__EmzIj8JG2Lvrs https://awoo.space/media/BDE1pmR5eEZ2PelzUxg
"This may be your last night alive. As the sun sets, you see the fires of the enemy on the horizon and think of the life you've spent alongside the other orcs here. Can you tell them how you really feel, here at the end of everything?"

Okay I lied. Sorry. I'm actually wearing socks. I have *plenty* of socks. https://awoo.space/media/8xHfVXV8lENSFwwomIE
Oh, suddenly reminded of this old MMO-user-base targeted ad:
"If you're going to sit in your basement pretending to be an elf,"
(smaller print)
"You should at least have some friends over to help."

I have a need to wash my clothes. All my clothes. Know what that means?

And then sometimes Duolingo is cool in that it just presents you with new words and just sees of you can guess based on context. That's neat. Sometimes it's easier to guess new words than others...
Trying to pick up some French with Duolingo, and it's... very sink or swim. Different from the regimented way I was taught Spanish in high school. I guess it's trying to teach it conversationally, like you'd learn your first language? I mean, yeah, you don't sit with a baby and conjugate "to be", but it's confusing sometimes. Like I didn't see why there was only one valid answer here. Why can't I eat a sandwich?
Long ago I used to have a slight infatuation with the King Of All Cosmos from the Katamari games. And loads of free time with nothing but a locked-down PC that happened to have mspaint on it. https://awoo.space/media/UTPfCRqQPGhI4aF9xyc
angry rant, United
Okay, yeah, United is officially on my shit list. Sure, they beat someone unconscious and lied about it, possibly tinged with some racism because what isn't these days. That's just a human.
Now I see they've *killed* a rabbit. Healthy 10-month-old bunny boards United flight, arrives dead. No explanation given.

While browsing one of my daily RPG-related news sites, EN World http://www.enworld.org/forum/forumindex.php I spotted a link to Rabbits & Rangers https://www.rpgnow.com/product/191133/Rabbits--Rangers?affiliate_id=64760 for an OSR D&D clone. 50 'funny animal' races, and rule tweaks for running a more cartoony game.
Cool, but I'm not really an OSR person. If you are, though, feel free to check it out. https://awoo.space/media/5hW8zvvgdphI6IdEZH8
Finally something for furries! That 8values thing, but for the anthropomorphic fandom.
