Super Android 13! I normally watch anime subtitled, so the DBZ Abridged VAs are my default for how these characters are supposed to sound in english.

I interviewed for a better position today myself. I hope we both end up in positions we enjoy, if you'll pardon the expression.

You probably didn't. Gods in my setting are very good at not dying. But since that's dodging the premise, what happens is that you take their place, receiving their powers and responsibilities as you assume their office. You basically become them and no one notices much of a difference.

I love reading about them in the novels because there's always a monologue about how close they are to extinction and how every Eldar life is irreplaceable and then they jump into a meat grinder for no clear reason and get slaughtered with a dying battle-cry of "This will all make sense some day!"

I think the second omni is present, as in he's supposed to be everywhere. Good didn't make the list because he's a bit of a psychopath.

The longer this story goes on, the more I want it to end with her catching them in the act and realizing all her doubts were justified.

aroundight.bsky.social @aroundight.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
But your name isn't on it. Most likely a simple clerical error, but what if they made the list before the battle, already knowing who they would catch? Superior intelligence network, or magical aid? Did they consult an Elder Scroll to end the rebellion?

aroundight.bsky.social @aroundight.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
I am a bit curious about this specific list. The most likely scenario is that after the battle they recorded the name of everyone they captured, but the random thief's name was on it, so apparently they were willing to update the list as they went along.

I can't speak for everyone, but about 75% of your shout-out games make it to my wish list. From there the odds of actual purchase do drop a bit since I sadly lack the funds to buy most of the games that are on my wish list, but I can usually get a couple of them each month.

Sorry, that should have been "my PC back then". The back of the PC wasn't the problem.

aroundight.bsky.social @aroundight.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
I really enjoyed that game. Sadly, my PC back couldn't really handle it and the game would crash every time I cast a spell, so I had to go pure warrior or rogue.

What is a non-MAGA R, if not an R that disapproves of Trump? I would have thought that was the definition. Are there any actual policy differences between MAGA Rs and non-MAGA Rs?

Part of me is rebelling against Police Squad being categorized as a sitcom but the rest of me doesn't know what other category I would put it in so I may just have to accept it.

Well, according to their origin story their first ruler killed his brother and then they invited their neighbors over so they could kidnap their women. I'm going with "they were always bastards."

I saw this one as kind of a political power move. Kodlak has been talking about breaking the WW curse and is suddenly fast-tracking some random new guy, so what does the pro-WW group do? Turn the new guy!

"Flash the Bling" I would probably stick with "Pull Rank." Short, easy to remember, and descriptive. It's everything I look for in an ability name.

It bothers me how much random people seem to know about me. Like, they can just look at me and know that I'm good at alchemy and ask me to brew them an ale, or that I've been playing a lot of Castlevania.

The total population of humanity is in the 4 or 5 digits, and no one seems to think this is a problem.

I think the thing that bothers me the most about it is that they don't seem to realize how close they are to extinction. Like, you visit the capitol of the second biggest faction in the galaxy and it's a small frontier town with a few hundred inhabitants, maybe less.

If his handlers don't have real skin in the game, I have to think that at some point the temptation to try to shoot the moon becomes overwhelming.

When that one issue is their survival, I think it's justified. Tactically speaking, I don't think you're going to have a lot of success berating people into sacrificing themselves or their loved ones. Alliances work both ways; allies don't throw you under the bus for public approval.

He vetoed a bill to protect healthcare providers from extradition, ended a lawsuit to prevent a major media merger by corrupt billionaires, and vetoed a bill that would support telework for state employees. And that's just this week.

I've long thought that the various D&D gobos would work better as an individual progression path à la Pokémon than as separate races. Goblin > Hobgoblin > Bugbear. Maybe even throw in Ogre at the end for the overachievers.

You can say one of the characters is having a flashback and just repeat one of the earlier chapters.

If you want us to be united behind the person with the best chance of winning, wouldn't that be the person that actually won the polls? Putting your support behind the guy that consistently finishes second or third seems like it would divide the party.

aroundight.bsky.social @aroundight.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
Why would he have the best chance of winning? He hasn't won a single poll, he hasn't earned any high-profile endorsements, and he hasn't declared that he's running. Boosting him this far out just makes it seem like you're looking for a monster to support.

Newsom is an egotistical coward who attacks the most vulnerable groups he can find whenever he thinks it will give him an advantage. He believes in nothing but increasing his own power and glory. Don't expect people to sacrifice themselves or their loved ones to help elect the next Trump.

Evangelical Atheists are the weirdest people. It's like they're still Christian but their polarity has been reversed so they spend all their time intensely arguing about someone they don't believe exists.

Probablybadrpgideas: If Cthulhu can be summoned by humans who are so far beneath it, why can’t humans be summoned by ants? The answer is they should be.

20thcenturyvole: Well if a bunch of ants formed a circle in my house I’d certainly notice, try to figure out where they’d all come from, and possibly wreak destruction there.

weasowl: That’s why knowing and correctly pronouncing the true name is so important to the ritual. Imagine how impossible it would be to not go take a look if the circle of ants started chanting your name.And they’re like, you can’t leave because we drew a line made of tiny crystals - now you have to do us a favor.And you’re like, let’s just see where this goes “yup, you got me… what’s the favor?”and usually the favor is like, “kill this one ant for us” or “give me a pile of sugar” and you’re like… okay? and you do, because why not, it isn’t hard for you and boy is this going to be a fucking story to tell, these fucking ants chanting your name and wanting a spoonful of sugar or whatever.And SOMEtimes you get asked for things you can’t really do, one of them, she’s like, “I love this ant but she won’t pay any attention to me, make me important to her” and you’re like… um? how? So you just kill every ant in the colony except the two of them, ta-da! problem solved! and the first ant is like *horrified whisper* “what have I done”

drackir: This is the best explanation for higher powers I've ever really heard.
