I watched Quest for Camelot yesterday and noticed that the falcon is the only competent one there.

I'm gonna start keeping firearms and survivalist supplies near my desk. :(

I think laced boots are what miners wear because they have to go into mines. Over time full-laces just became miner-coded.

Blacksmiths, sitting in their comfy shops, can afford to wear their boots with every other hole laced. (Or like, some comfy steel toe slippers, idk.)

I've done some thinking and realized that I'm a blacksmith.

That's an oof.

I mean, we could probably do a recap. Highlight the interesting bits of dungeon design, interesting player choices, etc.

I think Patrick did a long post about a Really Bad Dog and I think about that whenever someone mentions a good dog.

St. Cascarrion, the Vampire Vampire Hunter

The Sad Kraken

Nameless Queen Yama

Opaline, the Librarian

Davok the Demon

But at the end it turns out you've been married to the False Hydra and just forgot about it.

That's tremendous and only a little bit upsetting.

I hope I don't sound *too* much like a communist, but automation has really helped billionaires do more without relying on other humans for labor. AI is going to be the same thing, but for human creativity and brainpower.

On the other hand, look how cute it is.

I'd be interested.

Naturalists think that this is what happens to liches whose phylacteries are destroyed. Huge tortoises are just unusually vulnerable at the astral level, and tortoise brains are very erosive to human memories.

I agree with that. The constant repetition of the agenda gets tedious, though, kinda like Philosophy in the Boudoir.

Animal Farm did it right. So did Candide.

It's just another opportunity for players to show their morality in a not-real-world way.

If you eat a few crumbs as an ant and then turn back into a human, you'll be super hungry. Ant glycogen stores are nothing compared to your requirements.

This question comes up everytime someone is transformed into an animal. Can you use ant-form to make your rations last forever?

My answer is that energy (calories) are conserved, so if you turn into a horse, you turn into a hungry horse, with low blood sugar.
