in my defence if metal wasn't meant to be eaten why is it so yummy

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

politically, i will defend the right and merit of all art, no matter how garbage it is, to exist to my dying breath

personally, i would like to see about 95% of Dutch so-called 'literature' processed into toilet paper, and I acknowledge this is probably a skill issue on my part

Tired: we’re living through a repeat of the 1920’s
Wired: were living through a repeat of the 1620’s

man saw his chance and took it, gotta respect it

update: i am biased bc he's not my type but yea it's pretty damn good

well now we gotta know if it's a good one

dudes rock

(i mean i am being a bit flippant about it but i also don't doubt you've had *some* influence on this, if only because i refuse to believe the venn diagram of "employed at paradox" and "likes watching video essays on the portrayal of history" is anything other than a circle)

As I said in the comments to this, remember that Pittsburgh shuts down a major road every year so that the public can hang out with weirdos in animal costumes because they adore us that much, and every year it makes all the haters look like joyless obsessive losers to the general public

When you make protests look fun and whimsical, it not only encourages people to join in, it makes the people insisting they're violent terrorists look like absolute jokes and it's more difficult for media collaborators to push their narrative

i don't even know how you'd say catgirl girldick in dutch

kattenmeisje damespik?

idfk there's no good way to say that

hey, if you won't give yourself credit, i will! congratulations on single-handedly wrangling Paradox into greater historical accuracy /lh

I wouldn't dare insinuate this is down to my nefarious influences, but I am very glad to see things like "pop-history expectations" and Paradox getting their role as an entry-point and genuine force in historical perception coming up, right alongside words like "responsibility" no less.

i think my specific flavour of Poster's Madness is having an encyclopaedic memory of the Posts that most affected my life and/or amused me

that is probably the best kind of Poster's Madness one could hope for

So, again (and I hope I'm not being too intrusive by @'ing you), thank you so much. Y'all at the Ogre are making incredible art, and it's elating and inspiring in equal measure to see the absolute brilliance you guys can get up to. Thank you so much for the work you do.

Anyway @alfabusa.bsky.social I know this has been literally four years so you probably don't remember this exchange, but not only do I stand by what I said RE: TTS tethering me to a core part of my teen years (a torch now passed to Lorebeards), but H:tP has also dragged me into the wonders of WoD!
