That being said, the Canadian "bud" is always masculine and feels to me like I imagine how other women feel about "dude". Hate being called bud.

This is tough as a British Columbian (basically Californian) trans woman cause like me and the girlfriend call each other dude all the time and some trans friends do as well while others really hate it (understandably) but it's really hard to break the habit 😭. I'm working on it sisters!

I should clarify cause tone, but my broader point was that it's ridiculous that Steam would ban on this point as they got a lotta games on the platform that break this rule

It does! Repeatedly! It's a running joke in the franchise and I don't have much other visual novel experience but I understand it is one throughout the genre broadly (not to mention "I'm actually a thousand year old vampire" type stuff).

This is my big ME bugbear too, the idea of navigating a complex political/cultural system between multiple alien species that's been around for a long ass time and your the newbie at the table is really interesting!!

Yeah, seems like everyone agrees if you hit play just as the lion roars, Wicked + Wicked: For Good The Complete Film Soundtracks lines up pretty amazingly

Haus, I need you to know your joke hit crazy close to home for my own personal experiences and my great aunt was like, transvestigating her care workers after a talk with me. Thank u for making this piece of art (post) about my life

Lmao, I also thought this was about Canada until rn. So cool how many countries are two foot kicking the sky at the same time.

Happened to my husband with his Crohn's, lost a shit ton of weight before we figured out what was happening but his extended family kept talking about how good he looked cause he lost 50 odd pounds (he was scary thin and pale, like looked like a cancer patient). People are terrible

Haha jokes on you, I first started following you through a Erika repost and downloaded Obscuronautica the day she posted it! It's a great read of a rulebook and I only wish it was easier to organise da boys to try out something new but one day!

I think my hottest OSR take is that classes in general get in the way of the idea of playing a nasty little sword and sorcery man who is using whatever tool he can twist to his advantage to survive.

Rogues are lame, yeah. Either they are warriors with Dex as main stat or Warrior/Mages with a focus on subterfuge spells. I'm of the camp as well that they make the fun part (da dungeon crawl) less fun cause they turn the back and forth question puzzle solving/world building into a flat roll

This is my one conspiracy theory only because it's the funniest possible one. It doesn't really change anything, Oswald's still at fault and all, but it's the world's biggest on site job fuck up and it should all make us feel better about our blunders and blusters
