I'm Reminded That A Good Chunk Of The Unseen University's Purpose Is To Stop Wizards Getting Good At

You should play Tactical Breach Wizards, the only game that feels the need to, in a dream sequence, reassure one of the characters that play testers like them as people, even after fixing the balance issues.

Look, Rion. The only way I know to knock Liv off this incredibly tall building is to chain-lightning through her and her intended swap target. I tried to arrange it so she was the only one to get knocked off, but that just wasn't an option. Yours was a necessary sacrifice, and it honestly wasn't even that sacrifice-ey. Banks shot you in the head and brought you back to life. She even undid all the damage your lungs took from brellium calcite, so honestly you're doing better than if I didn't knock you off the roof!

Huh? Why did I need to knock Liv off the roof? Don't ask stupid questions!

Sturgeon's law: 90% of everything is shit. The way to get good media is to make another nine bad ones. Just make the bad stuff! Even if you never learn, you'll make someone else say "I can do better" and that's great. Honestly: I am an adequate mini painter. I routinely enter, and lose, painting competitions, because I don't want someone with real talent to look in the cabinet and see nothing they can't surpass.

"Why does Gen Z suck shit at horror?" every generation sucks shit at horror. In the 2000's they were sucking shit at found footage, in the 80's they were sucking shit at slasher flicks, in the 60's -- Jesus, in the 60's they sucked so much shit someone went and made a whole TV show where a bunch of guys watched horror movies from the 60's and made fun of how much shit they suck.

Last pantheon I made up for a game, I just said "screw it" and made said Gremlin one of the Creator Gods. "This is [Space], who gives things a place to happen, [Time], who permits things to change, and this is [Chaos] who makes sure it isn't boring." Dozens of lesser divinities of course, but the Three are a statuesque angel with clock for a halo, a star-filled void with a nebula for a heart, and a giggling rodent who treats the world as her personal AO3.

I think what I love most about mythology is that the “Trickster God/Spirit” is an archetypical character found in almost every body of folklore. It’s like “Oh, here’s our God of the Sun, our God of the Sea, our God of Fertility, and our God of Being A Wretched Little Gremlin Who Causes Problems On Purpose”

recently we were out on a hilltop taking photos of the comet and suddenly some car's headlights blind us from across the bay. literally four miles away.

who the fuck is out here with these nuclear fusion powered headlights. who puts naval searchlights on their fucking toyota tacoma.

thinking about creatures.

Oh god, this may be why I keep persuading people to get into Good Media and then wondering why they're all three books/games/etc ahead of me suddenly...

"any time is a good time for mid, but quality deserves the perfect environment" really does explain my habits lmao

“Why is snoop dogg at the Olympics-“

WRONG QUESTION!

WHY ISNT MARTHA STEWART THERE WITH HIM?

Lord, grant me the strength to throw away this box that i'll never use, the courage to throw away this box that i'll never use, and the wisdom to throw away this box that i'll never use
