It's amazing that you've spent your life looking for imitations of one of the biggest fucking losers we ever met.

pipe dream, print ad (1991) archive.org/details/vgce...

a dude climbing between a maze of pipes, attempting to attach one pipe that is lose, however he is very high up and at the risk of falling (could possibly be in the process of slipping with the shocked look on his face).
quote:
"...it's just as addicting as tetris." -nintendo power may/june 1990
more text (all in caps):
get ready for a mind-wrenching experience.
pipe dream.
what if you had a whole warehouse full of plumbing parts
coming at you! and you had to build a huge pipeline out of them? what if there was a big puddle of slimy green stuff called flooz? and it was running through the pipes right behind you? well, that's the whole idea behind pipe dream. it has basic, expert,
and two-player modes. it has 256 levels to get into. and you get bonus rounds every four levels. you already know what nintendo power magazine says about it but there's only one way to see how intense
pipe dream really is. go down to your nes/game boy dealer and see for yourself
more text underneath an in game screenshot:
it takes about five seconds
to get the idea. it can take a
lifetime to get good at it.
really good.

Job occupations, from an 1881 census. Every one of these sounds like something a sorely provoked Captain Haddock would should at someone in times of heavy stress.

If you know basic kabbalah it's actually not too hard to make a golem out of a labubu. Don't recommend it though. They have a pre-existing body-dharma. As soon as they wake they run straight for the sea. V hard to counter. Lost the first one. No idea what it's doing out there. Moved like lightning.

It's because we've begun a process of villainising replygals/guys, and thus the attention farming economy is in shambles.

I sometimes read old gaming magazines and stumbled upon this "babe of the year" section from Playstation: The Official Magazine.

If I was the editor I would have gently suggested this writer be put down like a rabid dog

Rewatching AtLA has got me thinking about power systems where the martial arts are explicitly philosophical as well as physical, and the design space that could encompass in ttrpg - sadly i do not have the project bandwidth to make this myself, and the official avatar ttrpg isn't interested in it

Be obvious about your desire and intent - resolve ambiguity into reality.

I don't have a solution - I wish I did. I have sympathy. Stepping away from it, removing it as an obligation, is probably the ideal - returning if you feel the urge to return.

The game proliferates and exists primarily in the community, there's some comfort there - but you don't have to stay.
