I made my first mod for dwarf fortress, which adds asbestos that is weavable into cloth and i got this lovely comment

the IRONY of this being one of the only books they'll put on a fucken shelf

oh

and a coat.

So glad someone had the same thought on seeing this. Makes me wonder if it works similarly to the current planepacked bug? Were either of these cooked in a guild hall or other location?

the most expensive single[-ish] item in my current fort is a TWELVE-HUNDRED-SERVING persimmon roast that has so many ingredients it takes three full scrolls to look at them all

it's worth five and a half million dwarfbucks

Are you

I was going to suggest on the OP’s post how to *stop* the children playing in the trenches with the corpses, until reading through the reboots made me realize how funny it was. This one though, I felt the pain of, as I also had a 9 month campaign against giants birds that were slaughtering my peasants when I lived in a savage biome. The birds ruined trade caravans, slaughtered a dozen peasants and a few soldiers, and ultimately left me so demoralized I abandoned the world save until Adventure Mode came out, when I retired it. Apparently the military complex I made in my effort to combat the birds was then hijacked by the king when I left the fort, who turned it into a war machine of conquest and has since begun a war with 2 goblin kingdoms and 2 Dwarven kingdoms simultaneously. This fort was the ONLY REAL SETTLEMENT this faction had and its now a war machine decimating goblins and dwarves alike.

And I didn’t find this out until I started a new fort after a bit of screwing around in Adventure Mode, and went “Why is everyone at war with me?” And then discovered it was because my old fort launched about 8 “conquer and occupy” missions a year

I don't know what kids out there need to here this but

PLEASE STOP PLAYING MAKE BELIEVE IN MY TRENCHES! Goblins could appear at ANY MOMENT and every second you spend there is a second we're unprepared for their arrival!

Honestly one of my favorite Sonic Games. Each one of the Advance trilogy games feel extremely different and hit a different aspect of Sonic. Sonic Advance 1 is the best platformer of the three, but Sonic Advance 2 feels the fastest. There’s a constant emphasis on speed in a way neither 1 or 3 hit. It rewards flying through the stages and has less speed traps than most of the other ones, though I admit Hot Crater Zone’s speed trap got me a few times when I was younger. Sure “Just hold D-Pad right to win” but there was more to it than that. It still holds up to me imo, and I’m lucky enough to still have two working GBA’s and a Battle Connector. The Boss fights are also unique in a way I haven’t seen except in a few final fights in the Boost era. I admittedly was surprised but quickly got into the swing of them, and find them quite fun. In addition the physics of the trilogy were my favorite, and the only physics I like as much are either classic Sonic, or Mania.

My only complaint with the game itself is how hard it was to unlock Amy, and her control scheme. Get all 7 chaos emeralds 4 times as all characters was way too hard for me when I picked it up, it took me until 2020 or so to FINALLY unlock her, and… I found I preferred her control in Sonic Advance 1…

I think the whole series is underrated and overlooked by the rest of the fandom. I’m pretty sure it’s “Adventure Era” but I rarely see anyone talk about them, especially weird since I see a LOT of talk about Sonic Rush, which is essentially Sonic Advance 4, and while I love Rush… the Trilogy plays better and I personally loved being able to play as Sonic AND his friends.

Tl;dr: This is one of the Sonic Games of All Time, and matches with the Classic Series energy in the Adventure Era

Opinions on Sonic Advance 2?

why the fuck does english have a word for

but not for “the day after tomorrow”

Forever indebted to @mostlysignssomeportents for this one. 

Forget the question of...

"is Azula truly evil?"

"Is she sympathetic?"

And focus on...

"is she compelling?"

"Is she well-written?"

Here’s a thing I like about the train.

It seems like it comes to people who are looking to escape their lives in extreme ways. And it puts you through trials and simulations apparently meant to help you get the personal growth you need to return to your life, which is fairly positive.

And yet. Time doesn’t pass any differently on the train than it does in the normal world. So it’ll help you through your character arc, but if you don’t or can’t learn a lesson you’re stuck there. You could live out your entire life and die there on the train. Or finally crack it and return forty years later, your youth gone, the world changed and with everyone who ever knew you sure you’re dead.

Loving that creepy mixture of benevolence and indifference, mmm-hmm.

whenever i feel like i can’t make an idea i really want work in my story, i just remember that alex hirsch wanted gravity falls to have a halloween episode so badly that, even though the entire show takes place over summer vacation, he just made up a fake holiday called summerween that’s just. halloween but in the summer

This is so cute! If only this was how they’d done villagers in Minecraft, it’d be so adorable

Been in an equal minecraft and Animal Crossing mood so here’s some animal villagers designs for minecraft I thought would be fun!

[On the first date]

Adrien: Do you like cats?

Marinette: I love them

Adrien, trying to impress her: [pushes her drink off the table]

Gabriel: If i put the word ‘Dark’ in front of that, will i still be able to transform?

Nooroo: …yes i suppose?

Gabriel: …Cool

Oh hi. Um. Just ignore me. I’m just gonna leave this here. Uh, enjoy at your leisure.

in an accidental one-sided reveal

Ladybug: Adrien?

Chat Noir, detransformed: Quick, act dumb!

Adrien: Who the hell is Adrien?

Adrien, internally: Not that dumb!!!

The whole team standing in front of an Adrien billboard

Chat Noir from Miraculous Ladybug is making fucking mac and cheese, and nobody can stop him!

Imagine Adrien’s horror when he wakes up the next day and realizes SOMEHOW a picture of him blepping was put in the media.

Adrien: oh fiddlesticks! That really ruffles my feathers

Nino: please just say fuck
