Hi, I’m Raven. I post about random nerd stuff, periodic salvos at bigots and fascists, and lots and lots of #Pathfinder and #Starfinder memes, recaps, pics, and memes. Not a swear-free zone—I’m not gratuitous with it, but when the situation calls for them, I’m not gonna shy away.

With the reading of this post, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created.

Post a banger that isn't in English
How about the track from the greatest video game opening of all time? (The refrain "Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec" is an anagram, but the rest is real Latin. And yes I remembered One-Winged Angel exists. This is better.)

Re: the hashtags, I was reading the #Starfinder GM Core the other day and noticed that the entries for SROs and Vercites in the “Species” section mention them being detailed in a forthcoming book called #TechCore. So I suppose the name *is* official (or at least was when GM Core was written).
Hmm... my money's on an ability for #Pathfinder 's upcoming #Necromancer class (e.g. "Arise, My Minions!"), but could be a #Starfinder #Mecha 's super-attack (e.g. "Radiant Wave Surger!"). #InfiniteMagic #UnnamedForthcomingTechBook #UnofficiallyKnownAsTechCore #CodeGeass

Haven’t posted photos in a bit. Probs cause I’ve been in bad headspace. Guess I’m improving, cause I felt confident enough to share my “evil lesbian corporate executive supervillain” look.

Six episodes down of #StrangerThings' final season, two to go. Loving it so far. Still have relevant terms filtered--no spoilers for me, thank you. Heard the ending is divisive, though if it's what I'm predicting, I like it.

But consider: what if his downstairs neighbors banging on their ceiling in annoyance was what inspired Mario’s defining “bump the blocks from below” mechanic?
There are two facts about Shigeru Miyamoto that everyone can agree on:
- the creator of Super Mario, Donkey Kong, and Zelda is one of if not the greatest game designer of all time
- he would be a TERRIBLE upstairs neighbour
- the creator of Super Mario, Donkey Kong, and Zelda is one of if not the greatest game designer of all time
- he would be a TERRIBLE upstairs neighbour
![Miyamoto enjoys rearranging furniture in his house, even late at night.[3] He also stated that he has a hobby of guessing the dimensions of objects, then checking to see if he was correct, and reportedly carries a measuring tape with him everywhere.[154] In December 2016, Miyamoto showcased his hobby on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, while also performing the Super Mario Bros. theme on guitar with The Roots during the same show.[155][156]

1. The most extreme anti-trans bill ever proposed is currently rocketing through the Kansas legislature.
It would empower bounty hunters to search for trans people in bathrooms, even in private businesses, and sue them for large sums of money.
The House is voting on it today.
