I teach outdoors for school groups in a nature area and a part of that process is a discovery hike. Its me, about 12 kids, and a parent chaperone and as we are walking through the woods we see a deer. All these kids, who were in 4th grade, were so excited! We very quietly watched it grazing around in this woods, not giving us any mind at all, when it sort of gets its antlers tangled in some vine and ends up pulling a dead tree down on top of it.

The deer is now flailing under a whole ass tree that collapsed right on to it, and it clearly is suffering. It is making the worst kinds of noises and I have the parent keep the kids back as I approach this crazed stag. It clearly suffered head trauma and was bleeding. The worst part is that it was right on the path back and, due to the terrain, there was really no way to get around this deer without being close to it. After trying and failing to get the deer loose, I had the children all vlimb over the tree and we went back. To top it off they all immediately got on the bus to go home, so it was the last memory these kids had of the place.

I ended up going back and putting the deer down. Absolutely traumatizing.

You sound like you live in your mom’s basement

All I hear is the shit in your mouth from all the boots you’ve licked

Your business is licking shit off boots

Go lick some boots

Recently I have been reading a lot of folklore from eastern Europe. I find it all fascinating since it doesn’t get told as much where I am from as things like Greek mythology.

That’s… why I’m here

I think that Batman and Robin is the most perfect representation of Batman that has ever been put to film. It captures the wackiness so well

Batman and Robin.

Kelaster is absolutely a trickster deity, but it is understood that eventualyl all things will collapse because of him and the Void will consume everything, so I guess the Void still gets what it wants in the end.

I like your story a lot. It feels very mythological. The accidental creation of the world is a fun idea that I think I am going to ruminate about now.

That is fun! I think it is very natural for people to believe that things don’t change or that they cycle instead of changing so I could see how whole populations can get convinced of this. Are there any fringe groups who are trying to find the truth? Some shady cult somewhere that is trying to defy the entire world order?

This is gonna be a deeply unpopular opinion but the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is my least favorite game I ever played. I like rogs but never owned a nintendo and my friend was always raving about it so I finally played it a few years back and I just hated it. The gameplay didn’t feel good which I expected given it was still the wild west of 3d graphics but the thing that really annoyed me was how much sitting and waiting you had to do. All enemies are just sit, wait, dodge, hit in the right spot, repeat. Plus everyone wants to talk to you to tell you everything about the gameplay instead of just letting you figure it out. I found the whole experience frustrating.

I have always loved the idea that in the afterlife there is simply more bureaucracy and legalese. It just seems so human to have even more laws after death.

At least for magic, most nations on Irdas defer to the standards set by the Arcane Council of Everstone. Everstone is a city-state run by mages and they have a council of wizards, each a master at their school and considered the greatest of their time. These wizards meet together at least once per year and update their stances on emerging magical theory. It is kind of like an ethics board. Many nations across the world have taken to adopting their stances when dealing with the publiv practice of magic even though the Council has no official legal power.

The planet is mostly water and the denizens are amphibious so they mainly eat fish. They do have some very primitive agriculture but on the whole they consume fish far more than anything else

They were already eating fish in a variety of ways and the introduction of sushi clicked for the locals.

I have been inside all day because of a hurricane but I did get a lot of cleaning done

On the planet of Risayn the locals are almost exclusively pescatarian. Since First Contact, Earth-style sushi has become an incredibly popular dish in cities and smaller settlements alike, though they often use other ingredients instead of rice, which isn’t well known to the inhabitants. It is seen as an important cultural link between Earth and Risayn and is often served when humans and the locals meet.

She would learn what I have planned for the next dnd session but otherwise not much
