It's always sad when I return to a web page I have bookmarked, and the page no longer exists. My most recent encounter with this tragedy was when I attempted to return to https://sweaterpockets.bearblog.dev aka "R's blog". There's something almost indescribable about losing a website or blog you were following. You...
https://www.ctvnews.ca/sci-tech/article/ai-could-pose-existential-risk-to-humanity-un-rights-chief/ That's the UN telling us what we already know: AI is dangerous. He left out the other thing we already know: it's useless. Then there's the third thing: it isn't going to be stopped because too many greedy criminals...
Inspired by Luke's Grand Grimoire Campaign and the following blogs: Annabelle's post about Wizards Luke's OG post about Wizards Hawk's post about Wizards Six Weird Spells for Old-School WizardsI’ve been thinking about weird low-level spells. Here are a few. Most of these have a stipulation you must first accomplish...
Raison d'êtreKathairein, meaning “to cleanse” or “to purge”, from which we get the word catharsis. Aristotle used the term in Poetics to describe how tragedies (of the theatrical variety) helped the audience release heavy emotions like pity and fear. Writing is cathartic. That might sound obvious, but it wasn’t to...
Menu All Posts Topic Page Contact Me I won't be citing the original author as I don't think it's worthy of linking it1. But the off chance that the author does reads this: Hi. I'll be the first to admit that when it comes to phrasing sentence(s), I'm not the best at expressing it correctly at times, and I probably...
"Go live on a farm." That's a pretty common one. You hear it a lot if you complain about the way things are. Along with things like: "Your life is much better than ours was," "You have it easy," "You don't realize how hard things were," "If you hate it so much why don't you change it." Very reasonable and...
I feel like the first act of a play has ended recently. My grandmother died, my brother is almost done with college, and I graduated. In a movie this would be where the second act picks up, our protagonist getting through this turbulent period with a new found resolve. I do not feel that at all, if anything I am...
One of the top posts on the discover page at the moment is a post that dictates that people should learn how to write properly instead of misusing language--fair enough, I get it, it's a minor ick of mine as well. But you probably shouldn't sit upon a high horse about correct wording if you're not able to prove your...
(I will be deleting this post a few days from now.) I made this blog with one specific intent - giving me a space that is specifically my own, custom tailored to my needs, and not under the ownership of anyone that can quickly yank away my comfort. I am glad this still exists for that purpose. Even if, let's say,...
I spend a lot of my time sitting in front of very old things, an obvious occupational hazard when you sell and repair typewriters. But every once in a while - usually when I have a machine open on my bench, and I'm trying to figure out why some tiny bit of wire that's been doing the same job since the forties has...
