Not actually Riggs. Sorry. I'm not even really a possum, I'm such a fraud. She/her I guess but I'd prefer if you just envisage me as a vague non-corporeal form, or maybe a brain in a fancy jar. With arms for typing & drawing, I suppose.
What I also love is that if the time played is accurate, they spent quite a while committing self-harm via bushes without figuring this out.

Done! Getting money to small orgs and individuals who can be vouched for is often a very effective and quick way to get help to those who need it, so I'm happy to help - thanks for the recommendation. :)

Horses are a lot easier to understand and get along with once you get how that plays out for them. Always amazes me how willing they are to override their instincts for us, but the emotions are still there. Horses are super domesticated though, I'm guessing rabbits are less so?

Funny that he didn't have a problem with needing to ask Pax Klanq for space elevator assistance. I wonder why. Hmmm. It is a mystery.

On my second trip to Golgotha I picked up iron shank; I have made disease avoidance & early treatment a priority ever since. (Carbide Chef is pretty much a must-take imo, it's so useful. I sometimes grab Corpus Choliys early too, but prevention is better than cure!)

I love how different everyone's Qud experiences are; I have never gotten glotrot. I've had initial symptoms a couple of times but it's never progressed.

I'd like to imagine it took him this long to gain entrance to Grit Gate, at which point he spoke to the dreaded woman with technical skills and had a meltdown.

And yeah, the immediate physical feedback is a big part of why it feels satisfying and different.

Yup - I'm a dev professionally and a hobbyist artist, and my art is all non-digital. It's such a good break for my brain. I considered digital art for a bit but after watching a bunch of guides I realised it just felt too close to my job.

No one has time for this, but in the UK anyone with CCTV running - if requested - must provide you with a copy of footage you're captured in. I wonder how many
people would get sick of having a doorbell camera if they were flooded with subject access requests.

I really wonder if some companies don't get enough negative feedback so just figure these things are neutral-to-positive in impact. (I mean outside of companies that have a vested interest in generative AI - no hope there.)

The marketing towards CEOs & senior management has led to a lot of FOMO, from what I've seen. People at that level seem to have fallen for both the hype, and the suggestion that everyone else is using it and they'll be left behind if their company doesn't join in.

Oh good! Ryedale has some lovely old churches - not always especially fancy or impressive on first glance, but some great features have survived.

I can understand why, they're great. :) Have you been to the church in Pickering which still has a lot of its medieval murals?

The other thing I've noticed is a lot of variety in terms of crediting people/teams who wouldn't have worked directly on the game. I've seen HR, finance, IT Ops, etc. on some but not others.

I wonder about this a lot every time there's discourse about team size. When it comes to outsourced work, is it common to just list whole teams or even everyone at a company, even if they weren't all individually involved?
