re: Poker Quest
@Cerulean I've made it to 4 with Rogue and would be delighted to trade tips sometime! I find myself having the best luck when I can max out on items that only take 1-2 cards plus one many-card item, plus a standard draw big enough to feed them, ignoring all else. i have no IDEA if that's the right path or not... god, basic supply management in this game is so harsh and the food mechanic alone is just brutal so i share all of your frustration...
@anthracite i sincerely and genuinely love that idea, actually. very swamp witch. :D also very punk!
@anthracite this is peak peggy tbh <3
current mood: contrarian
@Leucrotta Thank you! I think I've even got everything on hand but the sesame seeds...
@Leucrotta i love spinach, what do you do with it?
@Leucrotta This is a perfectly straightforward question, and I'm saying it because I genuinely am not sure... Isn't it?
I guess you could rack up a lot of calories from the oil, and starch from potatoes and such, plus they're probably pretty high in sodium. OK, yeah, that does make sense, you're probably right.
Now I wanna go look at banchan recipes.

@001zlnv @Phorm @JulieSqveakaroo for me? off the scale sexy.
for the record, the three canonical major Vexalyne soda brands in Parallax are "Warm," "Meh," and "Uncle Fluffy's Tuna* Soda"
* now comes in salmon, herring, and sea urchin!
re: furry art grump, military
Yeah, I have real similar weaknesses.
I mean... rayguns. Even if they do have lethal purpose. Put enough flanges and wibblers on them and they're like 6 kDansons.
Although strangely, now that you mention it, i found Michael Caine wielding a shotgun in Get Carter INCREDIBLY sexy. but it's all about the way he wielded it. subtlety and reserve are much sexier than martial bravado or steely resolve in my whole kinkmath.
@kauko @balinares OK, that's a relief. I never touched the forums. Still gonna change some passwords...
@balinares Nah, I filtered that one out ages ago, in favor of something far more snarky. :)
@balinares This would have been an utter disaster for me four years ago when I was using Kincaid's password for absolutely everything. :)
Yikes nonetheless, though. Still a scary though that they'd even be on any hacker's radar.
Heads up.
Tapestries (probably through its forum) was breached for emails *and passwords.* If you use you Tapestries password anywhere else, change it everywhere, *NOW*.
Source: the recent "Cit0day" leak, a leak from a black-market repository of stolen emails and passwords. See https://www.troyhunt.com/inside-the-cit0day-breach-collection/ for a primer. The Tapestries domain is in the table of contents.
Boost for visibility please.
re: furry art grump, military
@JulieSqveakaroo @Phorm Fascinatingly, a sword or axe is only maybe 250 milliBuscemis' worth of unsexy, even though the people they're used on end up just as dead, further evidence I shouldn't make a moral thing out of this. And a dagger is even less, maybe even running into the 100-150 milliDanson* range.
and of course a woman with a trebuchet, mangonel, catapult, or onager is just sexy as hell. same goes for a nuclear missile (cf. Tetsuo, Arial).
(*this of course is the SI unit of being unexpectedly sexy despite utter antiquation)
re: furry art grump, military
@JulieSqveakaroo @Phorm Yeah, I've never seen anything toxic or pathological or hateful about any of his work -- and I can even objectively, sociologically understand how a perfect goodnatured person would be fascinated with guns.
Rik taught me a lot about that: they're admittedly kinda neat in the same way that I find old vending machines super-neat. They're mechanical and fiddly and have a lot of culture around them. I don't think arming Equestrians is necessarily a sign of a bad personality trait or anything, especially since I know Fallout: Equestria is a real and very well-rounded thing, though I've kinda ignored it otherwise.
I even like guns a whole lot when I'm behind my laptop and there are things made of pixels trying to kill me. :) But then, say, Nuclear Throne and Enter the Gungeon arguably have the exact opposite of machismo behind their portrayals of being armed... (And I was always more of a Shovel/Casey/melee kinda gal anyhow.)
I just find them substantially unsexy. Like, a cigar rates something like 1500 milliBuscemis and a gun is maybe 500-800 depending on the context.

(i mean, don't get me wrong, between the top layer and bottom layer are some parts of me that really like the idea of rending some motherfucker into bloody scraps -- i am a CAT ffs -- but it's all sandwiched between parts that would be very sad to have to actually really do it)
(which is why outright psychological torture sounds like such a lovely alternative for trump apologists.)
(am cat. sorry not sorry. also are you gonna eat all of that thing you're eating)
