there's been so many batches of 10k mareep. an astronomical number of mareep.
Top image: A slot machine showing three mareep at the payline. The top lights of the machine read "MACHINE PAYS UP TO 10000 MAREEP" "ALL OTHER WINS DO NOT EXIST" "PLAY 3 COINS". A down arrow on the right side reads "INSERT BILLS BELOW".

Middle image: Special Agent Dale Cooper is looking at the winning mareeps and yelling "Hello-o-o-o!".

Bottom image: The slot machine below him is paying out the viewer's pen of mareeps from The Mareepathon 2.

i put all the switches and knobs i had lying around into a box attached to my joystick. very nice for having controls in vr that you can reach with either hand, including a thumbstick mapped to the mouse and a button for recentering
Nice light blue 3D printed box covered in switches. A big landing gear handle juts out to the left.Inside wiring.Attached to the stick. The landing gear handle lights up poorly.Backside.

Monday-Man Jr.'s Monday Night Meal

"Time for a late night brunch!" says the cherubic Monday-Man Jr.

"I'll have a banana," he says. We see a banana on a table.

"some frozen waffles," he says. We see some yellow-ish disks on a plate.

"and a cup of Sleepy-Time Tea for Bozos who Stayed Up Too Late The Night Before!™" he says. We see a steaming cup next to a box that says "Horse Tranquilizer Herbs."

The reason we have all these Claude-built recomp/decomp projects is because the AI dorks couldn't figure out how to shoehorn LLMs into games that were made 20 years ago so they all got together and had their agents do a little brainstorming and came up with a strategy to ruin yet another good thing.

"Hitmen for Destiny" from ~2008 i think was made in actual ms paint! (i assume Thorsby's using something easier to work with now, but idk!) two hitmen working for fate to help prophecies happen, accidentally kill a creature with a destiny and have to cover it up so their boss doesn't off 'em
Fusk and Vorte, hitmen for destiny. Fusk is a tall thin man with red hair, Vorte is a short squat man with yellow hair, pointed ears, sharp teeth, and he's pulling one of his eyeballs out (because his eyeballs can fly around). Vorte is probably not entirely human, and it's unclear if Fusk is. Both wear black coats and identical flat, black hats, and are looking out a window. Fusk, in a red word ballon: "Now a hero and a fire-breathing monster are supposed to come through"view of an alleyway- a portal is open, a green lizardy creature with a long neck backing away from the portal, from which a knight in armor, determined and angry, emerges. blood spatters the ground from a previous hitman sniper shotFusk and Vorte as described in the first image, though by now Vorte has completely removed his eye. Fusk's red word balloon "The monster will breathe fire on the hero, badly hurting him."the scene from the second panel in the alley with the lizardy creature and the knight; the knight is breathing fire onto the creature, incinerating its head. Fusk is unseen but we do see his red word balloon: "Oh, how droll."

if you are sleeping on My Other Brain Is An Idiot by @thorsby.bsky.social, check and see if your other brain is reading it- feel like if u enjoy the kind of things i post, then your favorite webcomic is right here and you might not even know it: myother.thecomicseries.com/comics/1/
a panel from My Other Brain is an Idiot by Thorsby-
two twaimins (people with green-hued skin and horns, who have two brains, one active while the other sleeps. twaimins have two separate personalities, often separate marriages, associations, hobbies, etc) and a human stand in a prison cell. The purple-haired twaimin on the left (Pearl Mittenheider, with her P pendant to distinguish her from her other, Sapphire Mittenheider) listens calmly while a prison guard (unknown name, but they wear a T pendant) with dark green hair laconically says "This police officer has something to tell you." The human on the right, with brown hair and surprised/excited look on her face, and arms held up with palms open, says "And it's crazy as fuck!"

So this game called "Dverghold" came across my Steam homepage. Interesting retro vibes, apparently collabing with a dungeon synth artist for the OST. The art was kinda tickling my AI-dar though, so I scrolled down to look for any disclaimers.

Friday Night Frannie's Haunted Mansion

A young girl and a boy holding a flashlight are walking through a dark room.

"See anything yet?" says the girl.

"Nope," says the boy.

"What about over there?" says the girl, pointing up to the side.

They look up and see Friday Night Frannie, a pointy-nosed plain woman, perrched on the wall like a spider.

"Why are you in my house?" Frannie asks.

Rapture and his gang are about to leave with Jack Thompson.
ICE agent 1: Hey Rapture! Where are you guys going?
Rapture: Uh… To do some ICE stuff. Unconstitutional arrests. That sort of thing.

ICE agent 1: We’ll go with you! This place is gonna be dead until the vending machine gets restocked.
Tim: Ah, you got us, that was a lie. We’re actually just going to Wendy’s.

ICE agent 1: I could go for some Wendy’s.
ICE agent 2: Did you know you can dip your fries in the frostie and, I kid you not, it’s actually good?

Rapture: Sorry fellas, our vehicle is full.
ICE agent 1: We can drive separately! I don’t know where the nearest Wendy’s is though, so we’ll have to follow you!

Rapture: Uh… Obviously that’s completely fine. I’ve gotta warn you though, sometimes I drive really fast and crazy and make sudden turns, so if I do that, that’s just how I normally drive.

Ice Agent 1: Nothing wrong with that, friend! I like to camp in the fast lane and change speed erratically between five over the speed limit, and fifteen under.
ICE agent 2: I slow down before merging!
