I am engaging in attention-seeking behavior.

I keep trying to translate into Arabic, but it's a really bad translation. May God protect you and your loved ones. A new day will dawn eventually and I'm sorry I can't offer more comfort than that.

Thanks to 1080 Avalanche for that.

I had trouble staying with the Afghanistan one too and ultimately didn't finish. The new one is really good though! I still have trouble focusing, but my personal interest in the region helps. In a previous lifetime (feels like) I studied southeast Asia specifically. My now deceased mentor was an absolute conservative, but it was easy to tell he really loved the region. He would dote on his wife, a Thai, and the one time I visited his office it was just full of little carved elephants and other objects. He was very insistent on calling it Burma, which I still don't get. I think probably his politics were terrible, but he really tried to get his classes to think and argue with him. He was the first person to tell me I was right about Israel being apartheid.

Sorry, ended up being really sentimental. Season's real good though, check it out.

Two thoughts on the bew blowback season. They should have learned to say Khmer correctly. It's Kuh-my or closer to one syllable. Small thing but you know. Second, my first introduction to Cambodia was via Boysetsfire covering a Dead Kennedys song.

Someone ping me when Coffee comes on. Look of Silence was just screened recently and I can't do it again.

 

A little fanart for Book of Hours.

He cannot be stilled; he demands the dance; he is beaten, like a drum. He is heard in the Wood below the world.

 

it's really become some nastybones business in the last couple few years. Like a totalizing thing that affects most of the things I do. In the course of writing this post I'm doing repetitions and that's just normal at this point. I frequently curate upvotes on my posts so they're not bad numbers. It's to the point where I have to go back and forth between tabs or closing and opening them to make sure it's not a bad number. It's even such that I am policing my motions with my hands so they're not bad. Even in the body of this post, I'm counting as much as I can in service of avoiding certain numbers of sentences or repetitions of words.

Anyway, how do you all experience this disease and how do you cope with it?

Apologies for the length, I was just really enjoying the opportunity to write some slopping wet prose. I'll organize the journal entries by month and link them here.

Save file


State of the fortress in briefEverything’s going pretty much fine in the fortress. I reorganized the military and have the squads patrolling between the two cavern entrances in shifts. At any point the bridges could be raised, but I left them open to encourage fun.

One thing that I didn’t mention in the journal is that there are some warm walls in the lower caverns, which should indicate there’s a source of magma for future efficient industry and mischief.

There were only two dwarf deaths that I can recall, as well as a birth or two. There was one moderate wave of migrants. I mostly let the upper fortress run itself, save for a little shuffling and building of guildhalls. The Countess either has all her needs met or only needs a little more in her bedroom. I had thought about reorganizing some of the offices, but I didn’t really get around to that.

A number of rose gold coins have been minted. A small amount of bismuth bronze was made, I used some to decorate The Rose Chamber, which I intend to serve as a reliquary and landmark. It would also serve as a very fine temple complex for the local Stigilite sect, but it didn’t seem quite right for the roleplay and I didn’t want dwarves to be pulled up and down the fortress to visit it too much.

So far the military has been able to tackle pretty much everything the caves have thrown up and probably won’t struggle against anything that isn’t made of very hard materials or producing toxic gas. The elves might get pissed if tree-cutting picks back up, probably not a huge concern unless someone wants to maintain peace for whatever reason.

Suggestions for future players are to keep digging down, gain access to magma, and set up new industries like glass (if sand can be procured) or dyeworks.

A little two-point practice. Didn't do any perspective construction. just vibin', imagining a shady street.

This sort of thing would be good for lighting practice probably. I didn't bother.

 

pathetic

 

Been digging on this lately. Found it by way of the previous compilation of Japanese funk/jazz/city pop I posted previously. The first and titular track is hit or miss, but keep going and there's some tight stuff going on.
