game concept:
Men's Life - an RPG about surviving animal attacks, and also men, and maybe... a little something about /life/

But mostly animal attacks.

Why is it that _being_ an impostor sounds like wicked fun, but having impostor syndrome is just a big downer where one is plagued with self doubt?

I'm getting away with it! This should be amazing!

People on LinkedIn are really into this career LARPing thing, huh?

Decided to listen to U2's The Unforgettable Fire this morning at work, which is an album my Scottish uncle gave me on cassette in the late 80s because, he said, it was better than the albums they were getting famous with: Joshua Tree, and Rattle & Hum.

And out of nowhere, the distinct sharp memory of laying in bed reading X-Men comics.

The two are entangled in 30 year-old memories. An interesting synaptic ambush.

SomeBODY once told me they had a treasure for me

They said good ol' Fortunado, you like amontillado?

I once wrote a horror story about a sorority house full of witches (in character as a not-very-good writer called George G.G. George) which transformed the whole thing into a horror/comedy:

I just cracked myself up revisiting the book's Goodreads page because I forgot how stupid the gag tagline I came up with was:

"Sisterhood Is Magic... And So Is MAGIC!"

That's just terrible, George.

I would risk getting killed by a Freddy if I could hang out with my actual friends in dreams, avoiding all commuting/scheduling drama/"Where should we eat?"/leaving bed nonsense.

Finger knife me up, it's worth it.

Live the kind of life where authorities are compelled to check your stomach contents so they can be shocked to find a license plate.

Hey there, hi there, ho there, this is your FAVORITE disk jockey, DJ Adrift-o on the comms and broadcasting to absolutely nobody and nothing. [long silence] The-- the phone lines are open and we're taking requests, so if you're out there, let us know. Until then, we're only playing the hits, so coming next is "Food Supplies Are Low and So Is Morale" by The Crew of the FORMIC. Anybody... is anybody out there?

In video games, it's exciting to point at a distant mountain and say "You know what? You can actually GO THERE!"

And yet out the window of my office I see distant fog-shrouded hills and I can't be bothered. I don't even walk around the block. I just sit here typing.

... Maybe if those hills had enchanted weapons or something I could pick up. Yeah. That's what's missing.

C'mon Down to Mick's House of Amulets where the amulets are practically giving /themselves/ away!

Seriously, take an amulet. They're great. They light up. You can talk to other amulet holders. They're cheap.

All you have to do is sign a contract that says whatever the yellowed eye in the amulet's heart sees can be transferred back to Amulet HQ and the Heart of Eyes for study. What's a little studying going to hurt, eh?

Sign the contract.

heck yeah I got "seasonal depression!"

HOW TO READ A MASTODON POST

Step 1 - Start at-- wait, how are you reading this already? You shouldn't know how to do that yet.

I'm terribly sorry, but this post is for /beginners only/. You're going to want the Advanced course, which is hidden under a cw and illegal in North Dakota.

HOW TO OVERTHROW A GOVERNMENT

1) Find out what crabs like to eat. Probably gross stuff.
2) Acquire lots of crab food and feed a lot of crabs
3) Befriend the crabs. Tell them your vision for a new government. Really sell them on it.
4) March on the seats of power with a motivated crab army of friends and true believers
5) Chase out the scum with your seething wave of claws! (Once you've chased out the scum with yr claws, continue to step 6)
6) Set a date for free elections (and ban crab feasts)!
