I basically never put on socks unless I'm about to put on shoes, which is a rare preference, and I still always put both socks on first. It's just way more convenient.

I’m having a spirited debate and need a larger sample size

because both the sound it makes when it drops and the descriptions of it sound cool as hell

‘daggerfall’ ‘hammerfell’ ‘vvardenfell’,.,,,, why do you keep dropping shit………..

there should be a hotline for me to call autistic people with specific hyperfixations every time i have a question

As seen here, Tumblr is storing truly ridiculous sizes of cookies - many 100s of MB. Clearing these has a decent chance of improving the problem if not fixing it entirely.

Tumblr on desktop has been extremely slow to load for me, for the past 1-2 weeks maybe.

It's like, a partial version of the page loads, which has most of the content in place but lacks (1) images and videos inside posts and (2) anything related to notes or activity. The notes button is missing from the bottom-left of each post, and the Activity button on the sidebar does nothing.

It sits there like this 10 or 20 seconds, images/videos slowly trickle in, and then suddenly the page "refreshes" in some way (e.g. if I'm on the dash, I am suddenly scrolled all the way to the top) and now contains all the expected stuff.

I've filed a support ticket, just posting out of curiosity if anyone else is experiencing this.

i just found out tumblr was storing over three GIGABYTES of cookies on my device without me knowing and that's why it's been running so fucking slow recently... incredible. anyways everyone go clear your fucking cookies. don't let this website run a goddamn video game's worth of disc space in the background for no good reason.

basically, i think the general rule of thumb is: if someone REALLY wants the blood that’s inside of your body, and they’re like… a vampire, or a dracula, or some sort of mansquito, then that’s probably okay. a dracula and a mansquito are made for removing things like blood and swords from inside your body. that’s basically fine.

if something wants to get at your blood, and they’re, say, some kind of murdersaurus, or maybe a really big frog, that’s where the problems start to arise. a really frog is not made for removing blood, and your blood knows this, which is why it is so vehement about wanting to stay IN your body instead of coming out. 

unfortunately this will not deter a really big frog, because a really big frog is full of things like prizes, and value, and quite a lot of hatred, and it would REALLY rather like to replace any and all of those things with your blood, and basically by any means possible.

So I had a fun fictional death's door experience today .

I made a voyage to Kingeater's Castle to complete the Sigil-Ridden Navigator's questline and I thought, maybe I should go to Varchas, it's close by and it's still darkened on the map, so to Varchas I sail. My Terror was starting to become worrying but nothing I couldn't handle just yet. So I arrive, enter the city and start going through the options... and somehow all the options I choose raise my Terror.

By the time I'm done, my Terror is at 96.

First thing I do is, obviously, stare at the screen in horror. All the hard work I did, wiped out in some clicks. I didn't even leave a Scion back in London, so one less Legacy in my Ironclad Will. I already have enough money to buy the damn Zeeside Mansion and complete my Ambition, but it doesn't matter because my crew and I are four Terror points away of going mad. Fucking crock of shit, if you ask me.

I leave port because what else is there for me to do, no use in stalling the inevitable. So I start sailing in the direction of Adam's Way, thinking of how stupid I am, and then. I notice.

My Terror is not rising anymore.

It takes me some seconds to fully comprehend this, but it dawns on me: I'm sailing almost hugged to the Continent's shore, with lights on. So my Terror can't rise.

Letting out what probably sounded like a madman's cackle, I pass the following two minutes or so painstakingly glued to the shore as I slowly make my way to Adam's Way, almost sobbing twice when first a flock of Milliner Bats then a Pirate Frigate come way too close to me. But I arrive. Good fucking god, I arrive. I spend all my clicks in shore leave then I sit back, actually lightheaded. I was gonna live to see another voyage. Moral of the story, fuck Varchas i guess

I get that there are a million inherent tonal problems with adapting the Lord of the Rings into any sort of combat-centric game, but I think the Magic set is the best LotR game adaptation by default because it does not flinch from Tom Bombadil

That's because Calvin is a fantastic writer.

"I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are good people and bad people. You're wrong, of course. There are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides."

it's both possible and likely for both sides in a war to do horrific things
