re: Okay have some ancient peoples blather then 

@Leucrotta Oh, I know about the Uighurs -- partly for culinary reasons (blush) and partly for the tragic ones you mention. But do please continue if you like. 😻​THIS was the kind of shit I'd always hoped to get taught as a history major, but nobody ever wanted to talk about anything but the "Great Empires." >__< Especially the various Turkic people's, I felt like they didn't get NEARLY the shrift their actual role in history deserved...

And yeah, equally tragically, I know about the Khazars mostly due to anti-Semitic shitheads and their conspiracy theories. >__<

re: Seattle, climate change (-) 

@hummingrain Rather a pity to see Northgate survive. *smirk*

@Leucrotta You are so damn hot when you start talking about ancient peoples. *_*

@Austin_Dern @JulieSqveakaroo Yeah, after the Seattle Pinball Museum (which also has old ballyhoo-style electromechanical tables), that was basically my gold standard for "holy crap, this is an amazing collection," and I was NOT disappointed one bit.

I wish I'd gotten a few snapshots of their workshop. Mind-blowing.

Let the joy be without boundary.

@Phorm We're all working hard on the strategy guide. For now, just rack up as many bottle bonuses as you can and pray for an opening. <3

@JulieSqveakaroo It's BIZARRE, isn't it? I've been fascinated by bingo pinball for years, but this is the first I've had the faintest inkling how it actually works, let alone seen one in person. Next goal: finding one that actually WORKS, though apparently they do have it in emulation...?

@Phorm I mean, I might have a different take on it if I had more than one remaining Mans, but one's all we get. And dammit, it's a shit game, but I HAVE to at least try to see what's on level 75. :O

From a bootleg at the Pinball Church. Terrible game; undeniably sound advice.

Hi, Dad.

dreams, drugs, ACTION (+++) (cw: one tongue-in-cheek gendered slur) 

So apparently my brain had a lot of trouble processing the awesomeness of the pinball church we went to last night. Keeping in mind I'm going through cannabis withdrawal and my REM cycles have spun up something crazy, I had THREE consecutive dreams last night where the church was some kind of cult compound/druglord den and various combinations of me, Anthracite, and @acetone_kitten had gotten ourselves into Coen-Bros. grade trouble inside and were trying to escape.

(SPOILER: Ace and I got out in 1/3 of the dreams. Anthy betrayed us in 2/3 of them. BITCH. :D )

J Dilla got his donut shop. This is so pure. ;_;

If you're not familiar, James Yancey aka "J Dilla" was one of the greatest music producers in history, who died at 32 from lupus complications. He loved donuts, and named his last LP and several tracks after them, including these beauties linked below. RIP, man. I'll hit District Sliders this weekend and think of you.
