I forgot where I heard this before, but
Imagine the new Mummy movie, where Tom Cruise and Annabelle Wallis explore ancient ruins. They come across the sarcophagus, and suddenly Brendan Frasier pops out! "I bet you're wondering how I got to be in there," he says, then they just play 1999 The Mummy instead.
More good news, my Reaper Bones 3 minis were (attempted to be) delivered today!

I'm getting everything in the green part, plus Crusaders, Dwarf King Companions, and Mythical Monsters in the orange section.

The more I learn about the Mandela Effect, the funnier this clip of the Shazaam movie (where Sinbad plays a genie) becomes.

Awoo? No idea what the text is.

I'm absolutely loving the long post length on Mastodon compared to birdsite, it really lets me post a complete, nuanced thought.
Which makes the super limited space available for a Profile uncharacteristically confining. And no "pinned toot" like functionality to expand it.
Maybe get around it by putting additional info in a toot, and short-url'ing a link to it in Profile?
Do you like super crunchy Pathfinder goodness? Do you also like cooking? Do you want both a mechanical rules subsystem for cooking along with the ability to make dishes yourself IRL? Then my gosh you have a much much higher tolerance for Pathfinder than I do.
There's a Pathfinder-inspired cookbook kickstarting now: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1456806822/culinary-magic-cookbook-for-the-pathfinder-rolepla?ref=recs
Just read the entire archive of Crossed Wires webcomic, after seeing the first couple chapters up for sale as physical books on Kickstarter (but couldn't find a way to buy book post-KS). Very cybre, very queer, just enough furry.

Trying to keep up with it may just make me futz about with trying to use RSS again. I miss LJ doing it for me easily. https://cybre.space/media/oLF6hxQ6i6TPd0FUUSI
politics, gender, current events, non-gender-norm-phobia
ugh yeah of course it's about fucking gender, or rather people making a big deal about gender stereotypes as ideals
birdsite thread about the "Pittsburgh not Paris" thing

but ugh "identity politics" what's too much, what's not enough, can one group's span ever overlap just a little with another group's span?
capitalism, capslock, swearing

I came across a cool video series called Scribble Kibble, where the host showcases an awesome animation and then explains/appreciates a lot of the techniques behind it. SK for LB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCIvOe1vg9I https://awoo.space/media/pcXgv6wzeOVDuYNavt8
