misadventures in conlanging
sensible ways to handle large numbers:
★ one digit per power of ten, starting with the highest power ("X million Y myriad Z thousand W hundred Vty U")
★ grouping your powers of ten into neat little groups to reduce the number of words needed ("X million Yty Z thousand W hundred Vty U")
toqqemtic:
hey what if we put the powers of ten first, group things by the hundred and reverse the 10s and 1s like in german and dutch ("million X myriad Y hundred W&Zty U&Vty")

*gets random discord add from someone with no mutual friends or servers, instantly declines*
*finds this in notes sent three minutes earlier, along with the fact they just watched me*
*doesn't respond, almost immediately unwatched after reading*
ah, love me some of that normal human interaction
Sex and STDs
If you're sexually active, make sure you're getting tested at least annually, and several weeks after any especially high risk encounter.

idk. I won't look down on anyone for still being hopeful and all but yeah, I ain't feeling it

> tells you to do and instead just mess around all by yourself since there's no way you'll ever get to properly explore the world in front of you otherwise, only even more so than in Skyrim itself
couple that with the fact you don't really get to be -you- in the game unless you just so happen to fit in the (hilariously narrow vision) of what CDPR thinks you'd want to be and you get a game that kinda misses the core audience of the tabletop game in favor of Gamers™

honestly after looking at the gameplay trailer, my expectations have gone down from "maybe there's going to be a decent game underneath all the edge and shitty narratives" to "yeah nah this is just an overhyped mess with which the most I'll do is look up concept art to jack aesthetics from"
it's a shame, but the primary gameplay just looks genuinely boring and like it suffers from Skyrim Syndrome where you only really start having fun when you stop doing what the game >>>
Hey people, I've been noticing the number of posts with alt text going down. It might be because of all the new users who haven't learned about the feature yet, so for them and everyone:
yall should use alt text when uploading images! what are they??? hover over the images to find out! why are they good? the tldr of it is that visually impaired computer users exist and it helps them navigate the INFOBAHN better
worldbuilding thought
i mean sure there's microtonal stuff & all, & to expect everything made by people elsewhere in the universe would be in 12TET would be a joke, but no matter how many keys you add to the keyboard, there's only gonna be so many combinations of intervals that sound nice together
of course which ones prove the most popular and for what is a whole other thing, but given how much the 7½ billion of us have collectively messed with that ourselves, probably nothing new under the sun
