some of the other Discworld strands are more about skewering mythology or literary tropes, fantasy tropes in particular, so IG you could read them as less serious, but they're still a fun read if you like loving deconstructions of the source material

I assume people see fantasy comedy and/or that his earliest and latest books include YA and assume it's not that deep, but man, there's some good society skewering satire in the Discworld books, the Watch books especially.

just an opinion. it's okay to have all kinds of opinions, as long as they're not about anyone in particular, apparently.

you too can give up all your own ability to make your own choices to let a probability machine give you the most average answer.

given there's like... some suggestion genAI has adverse affects on decision making skills, it's an interesting choice to choose to show that in adverts like it's a positive :p

self-shipping with characters who *were* older than me at the time but are not now, because I age and they don't :p

also like... the "Secret Third Thing" folks implying that people out of work are all stupid layabouts who obviously have too much free time and not enough real problems, whether they realise it or not, are edging into some dubious territory that they might wanna unpick a little.

lord, typo. anyway. this is not a perfect analogy, I just think it's kind of interesting that we'll teach kids that roads are dangerous and how to be safe, even though cars can and do kill people, but... not internet safety. weird, huh.

I am not good at these games so it takes me a while to get anywhere without dying repeatedly on the way, and you know. frequently Some Number of attempts at bosses. Mohg was probably the hardest so far.

got Radahn, Mohg, and Rykard down, plus all the base story bosses up until the Foot of the Forge site of grace. done most of the Haligtree too up, just the last boss left, and all the underground sections. probably gonna go do the expansion first, or you know. as much of it as I can

you'd need images for everything but like, you could frame most of those images with the inside of the windshield. maybe the occasional focus shot on the side window, or a mirror, or the front passenger seat, or the radio.

I don't think it'll be a project I make because man, that feels like more work than I have in me on any given day, but it is fun to think about what kind of things you might see out of the corner of your eye

just a weird little horror visual novel about driving at night and the things you see, maybe. couple of branching routes- both in the terms of gameplay and literal driving route

turns out being "smart" as a teenager, unfortunately, does not fix mental health issues and maybe just adds even more pressure to succeed to the pile.

I wanted to go to vocational college but my mother and my high school decided I was "too smart" for that.
so instead I struggled with academic subjects I didn't even really want to be doing but picked because I had to pick something and washed out before uni.

there also need to be more than One Woman in an age range people are comfortable shipping, which is not as guaranteed as perhaps would be liked
