Didn’t even have to scroll all the way down this meme to clench my foot muscles. Mirror neurons have a direct line to my shitty ankles.

Fun to remember that Mr. Toad was a parody of all the dicks who drove cars.

From a 110 year old book I picked up recently:

haha so true!

I remember learning that before the invention of the locomotive, people thought that 30mph was some kind of barrier that the human body could not survive.

If he was, he made no effort to tell me what that was, so that’s on him.

Not really? It was his first time DMing. He was doing a homebrew story. Actually Foundry, not DnD. It was my first time playing and I was really struggling with it. I wasn’t a fan of where the party was taking it and each session was basically wandering aimlessly through a cave and repeating my only attack (sling a rock) at whatever monsters we found. I let him know that I wasn’t enjoying it and there wasn’t a lot for my character to do and he just linked me to the rules website.

I asked for advice on Lemmy, and they suggested I ask for like a 15 minute out of character period at the start of next session to express what our goals were in the game. That was scheduled for the session that I ultimately bailed on.

I got a long string of texts the next morning about how I don’t respect him and never respected him and a lot of other shit. I dunno.

Last year.

I canceled on the biweekly DnD session because it was scheduled for Halloween and I had plans. Told him a little last minute (day before when I realized).

Dude torpedoed our 10 year friendship over that.

I don’t know if I like this take.

I own two ocarinas specifically because of Zelda. The site I bought them from has a bunch of Zelda themed ones as well as a bunch of others.

The game raised awareness about the instrument, and I certainly wouldn’t have learned to play it (or any instrument for that matter) if it wasn’t for one of my favorite games.

How many people play guitar just because they saw a guy play one in a movie?

I’ve been snapping up DVDs of every film I care about over the last five years. Especially the holiday films since you know they’re going to hold those hostage.

So he does read your tweets. This still does nothing. This is just the lamest form of activism, and as recent evidence shows, it clearly doesn’t work.

Elon doesn’t read your tweets. This does nothing.
