I mentioned that I was writing a dumb gamer isekai litRPG story and my kiddo declared they want to read it. My kiddo is a Wattpad fiend. Should I ... be posting this thing on Wattpad?

Okay, on your mental list of Fantasy Races Tropes, what would you definitely want to see in your favorite MMO/actual living fantasy world?

Okay but the important question mr Hutcherson (if that is your real name) is: What did you think of the new expansion? Some top-quality lore, right? Which new faction is your favorite?

No, see, it's pretty simple--you can't get canonized until after your death, so we know that Saint Nicholas is dead. The strong associations with Christmas Ghosts is just further evidence that "Santa Claus" is a literal Spirit of Christmas performing mass hauntings and in many cases possessions

In the cyberpunk future, someone is going to get a tongue mod specifically so they can lick and groom their cat. In a world of fingernail razors, biomod bliss-drug glands, and neurolace links, the cat tongue thing is going to be the one people think is weird.

Starting up Season 2 of Poker Face and they are really getting their money's worth out of Cynthia Erivo.

It's good to know that although I have far fewer cats and far fewer meetings these days, I can still manage to have my meeting thoroughly photobombed by a needy monster.

Oh fuck me why am I not at PAX right now? I have GOT to start going to these things.

In the spirit of "write what you know" I should clearly do a LitRPG story in which a card gamer, board gamer, minis gamer, and roleplayer are all isekaied on the way home from a convention.

Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊

DM: The skeleton appears to resist your sword's slashing damage.

Fighter: Not a problem. I'll switch to my mace.

Barbarian: Woah, you're swapping weapons? Is that allowed? I could never use anything but my greataxe.

Fighter: I practice polyarmory.

Oh, should I save time and summarize this rulebook I'm reading carefully, making line-by-line edits and notes? Will AI help with that? Will AI realize that the [redacted] rules on page 39 conflict with the rules on page 35?

Catching up on Crowd Control on Dropout and saw a game I worked on mentioned as bringing together a married couple! (And breaking up a different married couple.) What power games can have, to be dunked on mercilessly by talented comics years later.

Remember when Howard Dean said "yeah" weird and it ended his primary campaign. Just thinking about this for no reason.

THINGS THAT ARE MANLY: Loving animals.

The bond between a man and his dog, or a man and his horse, is an iconic image in the myth of the man. I contend that a loving and respectful relationship with all animals, and indeed all of nature, is peak manliness.

THINGS THAT ARE MANLY: Intelligence.

This one is a little fraught for me, because I'm still carrying "jock vs. nerd" trauma from school. But popular conceptions of manhood clearly celebrate the visionary, the scholar, the inventor. Part of this is just lionization of excellence.

You cannot separate the current nightmare we now inhabit from the collapse/crisis in how rich, powerful middle-aged men perceive masculinity, especially their own insecurities.
I’m sorry, but a goofy looking guy who grew up a privileged son of a pediatrician and has a phd in social theory from the university of Goethe and started in tech by investing an inheritance left to him by his grandfather talking about being a “dude” is very, very funny to me.
