Effects of a Taser on Chainmail
How Chainmail Interacts with Electrical
Currents
When a person wearing chainmail is tasered, the electrical current behaves differently than it would on bare skin. The chainmail, made of interlinked metal rings, tends to direct the current along its surface rather than penetrating deeply into the body.
Key Points
• Current Path: The electrical current will follow the path of least resistance, which is typically along the surface of the chainmail.
• Penetration: Due to the nature of chainmail, not much of the current is likely to penetrate the wearer.
• Surface Effects: While the current may not deeply affect the person, it can still cause some effects on the skin where it contacts the metal.

Seven Part Pact is coming to kickstarter July 2026 ! it's a massive ambitious TTRPG about magic, masculinity, and power. here's what brennan lee mulligan has to say about it

“If you’re a sucker for hoary tomes and dread grimoires, if your heart cries out for wicked homunculi and crafty familiars, if at the end of the day you’re out here just trying to ponder some goddamn orbs, then Jay has crafted the perfect game for you. Seven Part Pact is a vast, robust, visceral game about the powers and limitations of magic, the invisibility and essentiality of the work it takes to change/save/destroy the world, and an epic saga sung to the part of our soul that wishes to stroke our beard and sunder our staff upon the very mountainside. Take heed, o master of these most potent arts - the legend of your wizardry awaits within this very book!”
— Brennan Lee Mulligan, Dimension 20

#art surprise! I re-watched D last week and I had to add another demonic twink character to my work pile. I'm punching out of my league on this one. Picked and chose elements of several versions of the outfit. I love how it never looks the same.

And one final thought: Ozzy going out after giving an emotional final performance that raised a ton of money for charity is more spiritually uplifting and did more genuine good than anything any televangelist and religious grifter who railed against him ever did combined.

I unfortunately listen to a lot of call-in radio, and the average Canadian person believes the US will suddenly realize the error of their ways. Ain't like that. I don't know where else to put this - the orange man isn't *failing* to run a nation. He is *succeeding* at profiting himself and allies.

Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality

[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]

The algorithm decided I was in the market for an "Aztec Death Whistle". This is my favorite half-assed Photoshop marketing ever

Sample photo of whistle with mysterious smiling disembodied floating head from a stock photo. Text reads "Extremely Loudhuman Scream"

Stock photo of ecstatic, casually but richly dresses young men and women in a tasteful suburban living room poorly photoshopped so they each hold an Aztec Death Whistle in their hand. The two men are possibly the same person. One woman's slipper is oddly misshapen.

Thread dump of thoughts concerning the ttrpgs I played at Phantasm this past weekend - Index Card RPG: I liked the way different die sizes are used for different scales of effort. The doom die is an interesting tool. It makes adventuring feel very dangerous. I only touched 1 index card.
