Intelligence isn't real. Locking in isn't real. Manifesting isn't real. Tryharding isn't real. Nobody has a divine feminine, or a love language, or a humoral temperament. Men aren't real. Women aren't real. The club is a projection. The world is not a hologram. There are no afterlives, sacred frequencies, or psychological archetypes. Your body is a temple but like, one of those Sumerian ones that was mainly for storing grain. Epicurus was right. Get it twisted and always be twisting it.

gimmick accounts are fun until they start piping up under my posts. you think you can write a punchline better than mine with your bag full of a singular trick? and then have your little goons reblog it so the majority of the instances of its existence are only as an accessory to your peanut-gallery-tier commentary, defiling my post for your own ejaculatory conquest? i oughta gut you.

one elf cigarette, husbanded carefully, can burn for 3 or 4 human generations. my boy your great grandpappy bummed this ciggie from the leaf-crowned prince of the splendid dales and it has burned on the mantle of our house ever since. on your 14th nameday, my son, you will puff it at last, and become a man

the steam chart numbers of oblivion remastered are truly insane to me considering this is maybe the most pirateable game of all time

(cw: sexual assault) the pedophile -as it is understood outside of academic circles- is a mythical creature. the idea that a complete stranger who kidnaps and sexually assaults kids is their biggest threat is absolutely insane; not one case of CSA (child sexual assault) in a hundred looks like that. CSA is committed almost uniformly by adults in a preestablished position of authority (such as family, family friends, clergy, or teachers) and in a way that a victim who doesn't know what sexual assault looks like will be left unsure what happened to them. without knowing concretely how sex and sexuality works, would you be able to tell the difference between molestation and the various other forms of unwanted physical touch and abuse kids are regularly subjected to? would it even seem that different? but parenthood and the submission of youth to adults as institutions are threatened by the reality of CSA. adults need to justify their ownership of children through an imagined outside threat constantly held at bay through their diligence. the truth - that putting yourself in such a position of authority over children directly enables abuse (including sexual abuse) - is thrown aside.

What you want as your wizard familiar in cat form is a tiny scrappy tortoiseshell.

Does she follow your commands? If she wants to.

Does she notice danger? Yeah look at her she’s all poofed up. She HEARD something.

Will she cuddle your party members? Absolutely not.

Will she cuddle you? Maybe.

Will she fight a monster? She’s going for the eyes before you even notice it’s there. It’s actually a problem.

Will she let you complete your long rest? No.

Will she keep you company when you’re on watch? Always. Staring menacingly at the darkness is what she does best.

Absolutely buckwild thread of ChatGPT feeding & amplifying delusions, causing the user to break with reality. People are leaning on ChatGPT for therapy, for companionship, for advice... and it's fucking them up.

Seems to be spreading too.

While my D&D campaigns are nothing like historically accurate, I try to achieve historical authenticity with respect to the medieval period, which in practice means that roughly 80% of my adventures are ultimately about tax evasion.
