More like One Bangers After Another

I sat in front of the world's largest cinema screen watching that car chase scene on the undulating hillscape with a blissful, stupid grin on my face. This is what cinema is all about.

Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer

An overturned dead tree in a misty, autumnal mountain landscape. You can see for 50 meters at max.

Dark countours of conifers on a cliff side, obscured by thick white fog. There is no horizon.

Conifers on a moss- and fern-covered high plateau.

A tree under which a group of people stands gathered. The scene seems almost black-and-white or like something from a shadow play due to the thickness of the fog enveloping it.

I may not be diagnosed, but I am peer reviewed.

Person 1 (P1): (Posts a gif of "You take a sip from your trusty Vault 13 Canteen" message, with a ceiling visible in the background)

Agent Fuse: why you drinkin in the Ultra Luxe basement kitchen
I think it is at least, its the one of the only places in NV that uses that tile kit

P1: Bitch how do YOU know that's the ultra luxe basement /ref

Agent Fuse: I have a mental collection of every cell in New Vegas

P1: Least autistic New Vegas modder

Agent Fuse: also I was right (posts a screenshot of the exact location in-game)

P1: Dammnnn
I just stole the only vault 13 canteen gif I could find

Person 2 (P2): Impressive my god

Agent Fuse: listen
it ain't diagnosed, but I'm pretty sure

Person 3 (P3): fuse please
you posted an image that has the same angle

P2: The way I weezed at that it literally is the exact same angle-
Where'd you get the pic?

Agent Fuse: I went there in the GECK
which I already had open

P2: So you found the right tile and got the exact same angle within a MINUTE of you commenting where you thought it was
That is... horrifyingly impressive memory-

P1: You may not be diagnosed but you are peer reviewed

P2: 10s across the board, boss

As a matter of fact, I hate grammatical analysis so fucking much that I'll have no choice but to swap out my minor 🙃
Linguistics is linguistics and literary studies is literary studies and never the twain *should* meet imho

ElPascal @elpascalmods.bsky.social · Jul 14

Having written the exam today, I stand by what I said. *Fuck* grammatical analysis, all my homies hate grammatical analysis

ElPascal @elpascalmods.bsky.social · Jun 24

Not fond of grammatical analysis. What is "valence"? What do you mean I need to draw a fucked up syntax diagram and identify the determiner?! Isn't knowing what an adverb is enough anymore?!
Sorry linguistics nerds, but you're alone on this one. Literature Studies > whatever this made-up nonsense is

No worries, there'll still be plenty of oratory excess - but I think those bits need to contrast with the more naturalistic, prosaic conversations to better stand out and give them a heightened quality.

About 10 chapters deep into the novelization of 'Headhunting' and enjoying it so far. It's a nice, brisk read. Here's hoping for more down the line.

True to the Malkavian spirit, I got the dancing werewolf easter egg ending, aka the only real ending. Shoutout to Wesp5 for making the game remotely playable!

All of this. *All* of it. Whenever someone deigns to defend the machine to you, send them this.

"They want to build a genie to grant them wishes, and their wish is that nobody ever has to make art again. They want to create a new kind of mind, so they can force it into mindless servitude."
