Hi! I'm [???] "Xenosociologist" Cryptovexillologist! I've got a lot of story fragments here.

I make a gay space polisci comic, Parhelion:

I also made POSSIBILITY STORM, a RoboRosewater zine:

And some other stuff here and there.

Ideas for late-game stealth game enemies:

-Blind and/or deaf, but highly sensitive to whatever (magic/tech) you're using

-No stronger than an ordinary guard, but capable of looking up

"Alright, FINE, the studio mandated some more objectifying shots of women, now let's get back to these lads staring into each others' eyes two inches apart, with crackling tension and intimacy"

You, dumb: Arete

Me, an intellectual: Big Dick Energy

I wonder how angry French people get that we call Notre Dame "Noeturr Dayme"

We had our inaugural Bad Movie Night with Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, and it exceeded all expectations

It so *clearly* wants to be gay and/or objectum-sexual, but it's so deeply in denial

I love how the whole first chapter of this book on the Versailles peace conference is just roasting Woodrow Wilson

Parhelion update!

Some lovely guest art from @minitiate of the Business Lesbians!

Kinda annoyed that Glaze Fiend and Kiln Fiend have no particular synergy

Goddamn, Tinariwen rules https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1YIgwPsX5Q

Human space pirates in Parhelion tend to come from places squeezed between great powers, so they left Earth with very little love for nation-states

But with enough distance, the old myths drift and bubble up and people take pride in coming from (their very weird concept of) Appalachia or Mongolia or what have you

My WMD Sci professor used to give an assignment where you choose a pathogen discussed in class, and plot the ideal bioterrorist attack, until he was politely asked to stop

But nobody's taken issue with his Forensics final, where you're assigned a random weapon and asked to plot the perfect murder with it

Tomorrow's Parhelion update might be up at mid-morning or afternoon, rather than the usual stroke of midnight, but trust me it'll be worth it

I love how the final lab for WMD Sci class is "let's fuck around with fireworks"

Also, fun weird bulk rares languishing in my binder, that I'm so happy to actually see used for the first time ever

(Arbiter of the Ideal, Gaea's Touch, Fleetfeather Cockatrice, Worldspine Wurm...)

I just love sifting through my Magic-card bulk stacks looking for cool stuff to give to my roommate for her decks, especially with the infectious joy of new players who see potential in lots of stuff that veterans write off as unplayable chaff

It's even better when you expect to be vindicated, and then you get your ass handed to you by that chaff

"The animated segment of [The Star Wars Holiday Special] marks Harrison Ford's only voice acting role for forty years, until the release of The Secret Life of Pets 2 in 2019."
