Cartoon? chat room …

I was on a cartoon with a load of LRPers and typed Owmen instead of Women once. And that typo was the start of a series of 5 weekend long games for about 70 players each event.

Or even that the ordinary citizens are aware that the fight is still going on and that any internal Russian propaganda is contradicted by their own personal experience.

So - basically a completely trivial point. From that point on she very noticeably started talking about the German atrocities in Prague, and German concentration camps etc.

I was on a walking tour of the Prague synagogues a few years back where the English speaking guide was very careful to refer to Nazi atrocities rather than German ones. Until one of the three Germans on the tour very bluntly corrected her about the architectural style of some of the windows. 1/2

Beautiful work, sir.

I am literally starting to map out my sons digital identity so I can show which gaming accounts map to what - it’s not just emails - it’s that PlayStation uses EA which also is used by the Switch etc. If I don’t write this down then I’ll lose track!

Your reading comprehension isn’t so great. Try again, sweetheart.

Can you not be a nudist and still wear a kitchen apron? Surely essential safety equipment isn’t breaking the rules? Otherwise god preserve the nudist blacksmith or glass blower!

I’ve cooked my last 3 Xmas dinners by doing the meat in a bbq. It makes /such/ a difference to your oven space (and tastes good!).

Seasons greetings and love, light, and warmth to you all.

Yes. But also it’s the “I got loads of presents so I’m nice. You got no presents so you must be naughty” rather than “I got loads of presents because my parents are well off, and you didn’t because your parents are poor”.

60% of a small group though. 6.5% of the population. So in absolute numbers that’s a pretty low number of people.

Ahh. Yes. I can see that. But then I also think that the way voting works in the UK under FPTP ones coalition to win has to encompass the centre to some extent. It’s whether you need to drag the centre of gravity of the party that far to the right or not.

We still do some Santa presents - mainly ones that are for the whole family. And the stocking gifts are from Santa. But everything by else is from the person who gifted it. And we don’t do ‘naughty / nice’ lists. Too many poor kids getting ostracised for being ‘naughty’ for not getting many gifts.

Do you think the intolerance is all New Labour? My perception would be that it’s much more from the old Tankies and that era but not a hill I would die on.

Rum, sodomy, and the lash? I think I need to reread my Clancy :-)
December 24, 2025 at 11:07 AM
It honestly makes me think that I don’t know what the typical Labour Party voter is any more. I fully admit to my left wing liberal ‘can’t we just all get along’ bias but seeing the intolerance in the party I’ve called home for so long is heartbreaking.

Been in one of the playtest games for Hollows. It’s an immense amount of fun.

Each time I see your YT handle I am reminded that I do not think I have ever seen you in a hat.

I agree. It’s a cool idea and well within the idiom of the game. But it’s definitely manipulative.

But apparently it didn’t work rpggeek.com/image/164134... - a great idea, manipulative, and very poorly implemented. What could be more 90s White Wolf? :-)
Changeling: The Dreaming
These are all the spines of the Changeling: the Dreaming sourcebooks contributing to the "spine" pictures. As can be seen the original idea failed and was never finished...

1st edition Changeling from White Wolf (iirc) had a picture pasted across multiple books, so that if you bought them all and lined them up in order, you got a set image.
But if you didn’t buy them all, it looked a bit weird. And that itch to complete the picture felt manipulative. 2/2 fin
