does anyone else have like... a weird sort of "partial amnesia" where you know about something, you're fully aware that there's some memory there, but you can't actually think about it or feel anything related to it? like a perpetual "wait why did i walk into this room" feeling, but with stuff other people in the system can remember?

besides being not normal about the truth of the shanks/buggy 'betrayal' and not normal about their break up scene in the rain etc etc. i am also Not Normal about the fact that buggy has kept this to himself for years (decades) but he now trusts the cross guild enough to trust them with this secret, this burden that he's carried all this time. like. stop i'm not normal about buggy telling his two scary boyfriends about his biggest trauma and insecurity i will cry

I was reading through the comics where Surge has the dynamo cage (Because I am nothing if not consistent with my special interests) and I noticed something I never noticed before when reading.
Something that has created what to me is now a huge currently unanswered question.
We know that Dr Starline either kidnapped Surge and Kit, or they Volunteered and eventually became the characters we know.
They were genetically modified, implanted with mechanical parts to enhance their new abilities, and then mentally conditioned to follow specific personality traits to follow the good Doctors plans.
But did he ever try to MAKE something first?, CREATE a new being in order to fulfill his plans to usurp the Hero/Villain dynamic?
And if he didn't...?
Then WHAT ARE THOSE?

Stand Off
(Me trying to get the image looking not shitty be like: 🥲)
RIP My image quality: 2024-2024
Attempting extreme hard light for the first time was pretty fun, but I feel like I did a poor job. If anyone has any critiques or suggestions on how I could've done better, I would love to know.
(🥲The pdf version was so good, why do image files have to suck ass)

One of the games in my month-long Hidden Gems Sale (also known as the the I'm unemployed pity party) is Fear the Taste of Blood. It's an asymmetric game using playing cards and dice to tell a story inspired by classic movie monsters: towering aristocratic vampires, frightful werewolves, constructed creatures and invisible fiends.
Throughout play you’ll record the attacks of the monster, how the survivors try to fight back and deal with the horror they are facing.
By default the game plays 3; one player acting as The Survivors, one player acting as The Monster and one player acting as the Night they're going through. It accommodates plenty of different sizes though.
It's based on the rules of Beyond the Rift via Anyone Can Wear the Mask.
There are rules for creating your own setting, monster and survivors but the game also comes with three pre-written scenarios. I sourced the art from old public domain horror magazines and comics.
Werecat by Night is werebeast story at an ice skating competition, with the human form of the Werecat among the survivors.
In The Widower of Count Dracula an all queer cast, including Jonathan and Mina Harker's grown up child, faces down the late Dracula's lover in post war London.
Man-Made Phantom is a mashup of the Invisible Man and haunted house stories, as well The Old Dark House.
I played both Werecat by Night and Man-Made Phantom at GenCon (with an expanded cast of 5/6 players including me) and had a lot of fun both times. Our Werecat by Night ended with the figure skating judge burning the Werecat to death with a flower and then a troubled skater choosing to take the blame for the attacks.
Here's a video from Philippa Mort talking about the game some more and recommending it for dark and spooky nights.
So yeah you can get 20% off as part of the sale or bundle all the Hidden Gems together for $40. I'll try and do some posts about the rest that's on offer this month.

another frankly horrifying&dystopic concept is what if tumblr elaborates an algorithm to decide ur 'tumblr soulmate' and it just pairs u up with some good omens/destiel blogger, refusing to explain the criteria, and now ur activities are conjoined until death do u part. id kill myself
