One day they woke me up so I could live forever.

Fat gay train nerd sharing various comments and fangirling over webcomics, DC Metro system, and games of all varieties. Occasionally anime trash.

He/him or they/them 🌈
The UK (mostly Scotland) used to be where I hoped to escape to if ever needed, but Christ on a cracker, Labour and the Tories seem to be in a perpetual battle to see who can be the shittiest possible to as many minority groups as they can.

Until there is replacement in leadership, the Senate Democrats are a useless organization that accomplish nothing. So no. Durbin and Schumer either get out of the way or you and anyone else that continues to support them will ensure defeat for years to come.

The usual retort is "we need experienced people though!" or a call for unity when the point of primarying them comes up.

As an event planner, even when we do this, people still ask "what should I wear" "when is the next event" "where is the event"

Despite all of this being in plain language on the promotion materials and on all the social media.

I deal with this a lot. Also sucks sometimes when I have friends who have more time for games and when I finally do get on to join them, they're at end game already 😭

While I get the appeal of all stations should be maximum zoning around them, these also are sometimes how you convince suburban counties to buy into systems and contribute to them and starting winning over more people to the "train good" crowd.

I just tend to block these accounts. They just want to scream at people.

And? Brutalism can still make use of elements like that. Maybe actually take some time to look at architectural discussion and study of Brutalism. You seem to have bought into a narrow view of what Brutalism is. It's a much broader design and style concept than just bare concrete slabs.

The first picture there is the DC Metro. Brutalist design isn't making everything 100% concrete. Metro is often one of the highly regarded cases of Brutalism done well. It makes effective use of concrete, simple and repeating patterns and things like indirect, yet still dramatic, lighting.

Do you really want to make the argument that the -DC Metro- is not an example of Brutalist architecture?

There is an overlay for it, but it only goes increments of 10m instead of the 5m for actually passing things.

Those are some brutal turns haha

I've built out the system as best I can (run into a few bugs) and am now onto my crayonista mapping portion.

You, Jeph Jacques, Danielle Coresetto, Nicole Mannino, and David Willis are all ones I've met at cons are always incredibly kind and I've followed y'all for a decade+ now.

Kate Beaton's both long form and short dailies she shares always put a smile on my face.

Webcomics are my favorite medium.

For me even when they do, they sell out so fast I can't get tickets even if I want to. It feels like even the smallest events get bought up by people trying to resell now. 😭

Just now seeing this, very sorry to hear. Your pictures of him were always a delight.

But don't you want to fill everyone's feeds with Quips™ even if they have absolutely no idea who you are? You know, the feature Patreon was really lacking after all.
