Jaws theme starts playing

Fortunately the place where I work develops live saving medicine.
That helps when I search for motivation to get out of bed.

Wow so triggered much indignation

I feel like horror fiction, especially stuff inspired by Lovecraft has done a big disservice in this regard.
Why is hearing voices always depicted as driving someone into madness?
If people were a little more relaxed about, it they could stop themselves from spiraling out of control.
Take a step back, tame your inner voices and make them work for you.
The abyss is looking back? Good.
Take a deep look and learn about yourself, because when you look in the mirror, despite everything, it’s still you.

Thanks!

Gary Gygax was 28 years old when Star Trek first started airing and he was 36 when he published the first version of DnD.
I have a feeling that he was very much influenced romulans in his portrayal of dark elves as shifty paranoid and backstabbing.
I mean vulcans are explicitly meant to be space elves and romulans are meant to be a “dark” version that amplifies the negative traits and demonstrate the downsides of an isolationist society (Gene Roddenberry HATED isolationism).
The more original take on that idea of a “bad guy” player race, the thiefling, didn’t join DnD canon until 1994 in Second edition.

That video is such a treasure.
Props to Joshua Marchant for voicing all three characters so well.

Those are the skeletons sitting in the chairs down on the seafloor.

Not even a metaphor anymore, just stark raving mad reality.

The ultimate life form.

A Beet.

Dude that “A World Without” channel is genius.

Hideo Kojima is such a madman… but he channels it well, I have to respect him for that.

Romero about to make you his (bottom) bitch. 😂

You are being a good sport about it too. 😁

My two cents: just create something imperfect.
It will be ugly, it will have errors and flaws.
But you will gain something, you will learn to make something better next time.
Just stewing in your own juices and never putting anything out there is the same a standing still.
Unstick yourself first and only then can you tell how far you can carry your creations toward perfection.

Same vein as “to be cringe is to be free” or in more simple terms: accept yourself fully, warts and all.
