Full frontal nerdity. I talk about RPGs, video games, anime, mythology, and philosophy.

Occasionally NSFW, always anti-authoritarian, polyamorous, leftist.

My page is an exercise in the Paradox of Tolerance. Trolls, bigots and incels will be blocked.

I don't talk about politics here much because I do not want my feed full of more politics, but THIS.

In a sane world this would be the biggest political scandal since Watergate. It's corrupt and illegal in so many ways.

It's also FUCKING HILARIOUS.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Started watching the Hunter x Hunter remake.

I've discovered that I have an irrational hatred of action anime with child main characters.

"Hunters are elite warriors who protect the whole world! How about we let this 12 year old join?"

Special Forces Doogie Howser is just silly.

In fact it's not even worth talking about the scorpion and the frog any more, it's just wall-to-wall "CSI: Frog".

It always amuses me that the same guys who classify people by "alpha" and "beta" can't wrap their minds around what's actually happening to them.

Adapt or die, chuds.

I've tried two Monster Hunter games and didn't care for them. I'm just not a fan of MMOs. They're all too much like the "Some of the M&Ms in this bowl are poisoned" thought exercise.

What I've seen from this one has me tempted to try again.

Folks who've tried it, how viable is playing mostly solo?

What will the eventual big ELON MUSK Broadway musical be called?

Whenever I play Skyrim there's a few things I always do when I purchase a home.

1. Put a big dwemer bowl somewhere near the front door of my home.

2. Put a kettle next to the enchanting station.

3. Put troll skulls in the fireplace.

4. Hang the city's Thane weapon above the front door.

I feel like choosing violence today.

Coffee is terrible. Tea is better. Chai is best.

Custard is better than ice cream.

Milk chocolate is better than dark.

The cashew is the best nut. Macadamia is the worst. Pecans only belong in pie.

If you think 40k's Imperium Of Man is good, or defensible, or even a "necessary evil," you have COMPLETELY missed the point of the setting.

The Imperium a corrupt, oppressive, xenophobic theocracy incapable of change.

It is evil at every conceivable scale of scrutiny, and isn't subtle about it.

I've spent 6 months slowly buying components. Only waiting on my fans now. This thing is going to be a monster.

Holy crap this is an ANTHEM.

My world view can get pretty bleak. Living in constant existential horror requires facing it, but also resisting it through humor and sheer stubbornness.

Not many songs capture it without delving too far, or not far enough, into nihilism.

Was in a building trades class. I tagged my instructor in some Instagram photos of the project the class was working on. Later, the instructor encouraged the rest of the class to check them out, and added-

"As a warning, he has an inordinately attractive wife. It caught me off guard."

Whoever the pilot was that managed to land a commercial plane upside down with zero fatalities needs a massive raise. They need to be a flight instructor. That's some Launchpad McQuack level nonsense.
