ZENJA'S LOBSTER HUT

The lobsters can hurt you now

Holy shit, I finally unfucked my dash. Why did no one tell me there was a setting that's on by default that basically says "waste this dude's time"

saw someone misspell "stochastic terror" as "socratic terror" so I'd like to clarify that stochastic terror is the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act that seems random but is not, while "socratic terror" is what every athenian felt when they went down to the agora in the 5th century and saw an old man with a beard approaching them

"what you put online will stay online forever" i fucking wish. do you know how much of the internet is just fucking lost in time. things that we WANTED to keep forever that is just gone?

when i was a kid my mom recorded a video of me lip syncing to "keep it simple" by cobra starship and posted the video on youtube and Gabe Saporta (lead singer of cobra starship) inbedded the video on a post on his myspace and it got thousands of views only for my mom to lose access to the account she posted it on during google's merging of google and youtube accounts. the video is lost. possibly forever. we cant find it and i doubt anyone saved the video before her account and videos were deleted. so yeah. digital footprint or whatever but also the internet is rotting. your favorite videos are not safe. save them now before you lose them.

I know I've posted this thread in the past but it's still like top TTRPG posting of the decade

This is satire.

They're specifically mocking the kind of D&D 5e player who wants to treat 5e as a universal system, and the way they act when they try to use D&D for a concept that doesn't make sense to use D&D for and people suggest them to check out other games that already do that concept. Hence why he's acting the same way about D&D.

How do you, like, make tumblr only show *new* posts, and not the same recommended posts 30 times?

That whole "there's a rich oral tradition around D&D and half of knowing how to play D&D is being familiar with said tradition" part of the hobby sucks, mostly because it ends up elevating dysfunctional group dynamics and bad play practices, but also like have you seen the average D&D meme page, their memes fucking suck ass

I think it's time to call the Monk class in fantasy RPGs something different. They aren't monks even

Not fucking pugilist!!!! A pugilist is a boxer! A fighter! It's not about the fists it's about a warrior mystic turning their body into a weapon through discipline and understanding of the world's underlying forces!
