i don't have a list but i think a lot about stygiomedusa gigantae, the giant phantom jelly.

despite the crass humor and gore there's a sort of romantic frailty to it. you wouldn't see it, comparing it to it's contemporaries.

but that's the thing that's missing in the bethesda games, i think. which are fine, i'm sure. objectively.

a big part of its popularity came from the fact that "it's not elves and magic it's something different and surprising" and that's true but it's made by and for people who love getting their dungeons dragged and their gates baldured.

the vaults and their quirky experiments are all classic little d&d dungeons with their unique ecologies for the player to puzzle out.

the brotherhood of steel are arthurian knights with their quests and their sacred artifacts.

the thing with the original fallout is that while it is a mad max game it is also a dungeons and dragons game.

not in the sense of dungeons and dragons you know now, not the cool dungeons and dragons. the charmingly awkward ren fair dungeons and dragons of the 90s.

aren't you tired of going ape shitt?

don't you want to just be nice?

i'm not a big exercise person but a walk somewhere quiet often helps me.

or those timed breathing exercises that people sometimes post in gif form. they don't cheer me up, but if they can get me from angry/sad to an even keel it's easier to think about what would make me happy.

sure, but if christianity was just a convenient excuse to stop all the honor killings that's fine too. the good thing isn't that they converted to christianity, it's that the honor killings stopped.

if historical context had caused iceland to become buddhists or zoarostrians that would be good too.

lots of things are, sure. but generally prosocial behavior is pretty universal. we should help the needy, be nice to our parents, keep our promises, and not be cowards (whatever that means).

sinners in the hands of a god who's not angry, just disappointed.
February 11, 2026 at 2:22 AM
the gist of mere christianity is basicaly "c'mon, you know the difference between right and wrong, you feel guilty sometimes, right. doesn't that say a lot about humanity?"

and like, yeah, i do feel guilty sometimes. i do think, on some level, right and wrong are intuitive. you got me old man.

cs lewis absolutely dogwalked me out of my atheist phase.

he didn't get me back into church, but he made me into the sort of person who says "i'm spiritual but not religious."

The inability to understand that the oppression of trans Americans is not only part of fascism but a direct path to it is one of the reasons the right has found it so relatively trivial to gain power.

Liberation for all or not at all isnโ€™t just a moral stance โ€” itโ€™s a strategic one.
WHO THE FCK CARES?! Itโ€™s all hate and distraction from the fascist takeover of this country.
