Doom 2 wad: Outpost 13. By: Brullov. Insanely good usage of vanilla textures. Look at the flare in image 1. Heavily The Thing themed, but that drill scene in image 4 gives me City of the living dead vibes! Could be a coincidence, but the creator seems to like horror movies ;) . More in comments...

Hi, for those of you unfamiliar with this sort of weather
-if the power goes out, trying to heat your home with the clay pot + candle method is not a great idea, try personal warmth (ie blankets) and blocking and sealing drafty areas instead if you can
-if the power goes out, trying to heat your home with the clay pot + candle method is not a great idea, try personal warmth (ie blankets) and blocking and sealing drafty areas instead if you can
Widespread freezing rain and sleet are expected south of the primary snow axis. Significant and damaging ice accumulations are likely, with the potential for long-duration power outages, tree damage, and dangerous travel conditions.

Since his socialist ideology was written out of the history books.. In his own words:
"If America does not use her vast resources of wealth to end poverty and make it possible for all of God’s children to have the basic necessities of life, she too will go to hell."
Happy MLK Day.

Appropriately getting back to Black Reconstruction today after a pause of several months. It’s as illuminating and sobering as ever:
“O twin of monarchy that lives to rob and kill, […]
That keeps a robber gang in kingly rights enthroned,
Then turns their robberies to legal acts condoned”

Finishing up this cool little collection from @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social. This story from Sara Century, about an isolated woman who discovers an eye growing in the wall of her apartment while the world outside crumbles into chaos, really hitting hard rn.

Despite my longtime megawad skepticism, I’ve gotta admit that the (too) vast canvas of 32 maps is p good for pushing one towards goofy one-off gimmicks, which is obv my shit. Case in point is “Trio Astronauta” from the space ep of my wip megawad, where I go all out on triangles and groupings of 3 🚀

Every Doom mapper has to indulge in a bit of shameless Romero worship at least once. Here it was fun to dress up a pretty non-Romero central gimmick in classic E1 looks (plus a few other JR tropes).
