I am being cyberstalked by 'Roxy' / 'Alice' / 'Cneph' / 'Canno' / 'Cannodonia' and probably a couple other alt accounts/different names, if this person DMs you to try and get into contact with me just block her. I don't want to hear about it either. I can't handle it anymore.

did some more writing

I think about who I was, sometimes, when I confined myself in as total an isolation as possible. I resented everyone who loved me and resented myself for loving them because that love meant I couldn't stop existing without dealing so much hurt and my little brother is four and I can't stomach my perfect beautiful brother being told he can't see his brother anymore and he can't understand why. And I can't understand why I have to be his brother. I hated it and hated them and I hated myself for all the hatred I'd become. And if I couldn't stop existing I could at least exist as little as possible.

I think about who he was, sometimes. Seventeen years old, parents' house, high school graduate, staring at his jiu-jitsu belt and glancing at the coat-rack. Eighteen, languishing on a surplus army cot, freeloading a room his older sister and her husband had earned fair and square, record-time college dropout, knowing perfectly well he didn't deserve to eat. Nineteen, grandmother and her roommate, freeloaded room, being seen at all an embarrassment. Browsing imageboards where no one has a name, hate-sinks where everyone is no one. He was a nothing-person.

When I was twenty-six my oldest sister told me she wasn't sad that she lost a brother. She was sad her sister had to be her brother for so long.

I also can't stress enough that this entire movie is shot like, written like, and acted like in a gangster movie instead of high fantasy. They do like three seperate heists complete with a "I'm putting together a team"

You ever stumble on discourse from a community you are not in and straight up cannot parse anything either side is saying? It's like stumbling into an episode of Star Trek. Every now and then I take a mental step back and just observe myself to make sure no opinions *I* hold veer into this territory

Neither of these are fun, interesting, engaging, and completely annihilate the only saving grace Crusader Kings 3 has as a game: fun emergent narratives from a semi-simulationist world

-grinding out passive modifiers until you stack a number high enough that the game engine cannot possibly get history back on track when you start demolishing the game like some sort of isekai protagonist

-plays out according to prescripted event timelines anyway to make sure the mod doesn't go off course from the 'lore' too much. Meaning you either click through automated popups while not touching the 20-layer-deep feudal micromanagement nightmare, or you're on the edge of the map-

Crusader Kings 3 has a Game of Thrones mod which octouples the size of the world map and creates an unnavigable mess of half a million named characters with their own AI scripts in their own situations and event chains that ultimately do not add anything to the game because everything-

Angel of Mist and Mirrors @doremichazakiel.bsky.social · 13/01/2026

I find this so annoying? Modders often seem to think that adding 18 million new mechanics is like, fun or good? Once again proves that gamers are the last people who should be making games

Even though the practice was quite rare, during slavery in the US it did happen with some regularity that people would eat human meat from slaves, which was by the communities that did this not actually regarded as cannibalism, because slaves were seen as cattle, not people

Angel of Mist and Mirrors @doremichazakiel.bsky.social · 12/01/2026

Been reading about historical cannibalism and it's really funny how most of the western world was completely fine with eating people until very recently and we all just memoryholed this and now pretend we would NEVER, EVER eat poor people. It's almost always left out of historical portrayals as well

Angel of Mist and Mirrors @doremichazakiel.bsky.social · 12/01/2026

Wonderful German invention. 'Humanol,' human meat/fat suspended in alcohol for injections. An evolution of the medieval German practice of "Armsünderschmalz," literally 'Poor sinner's fat,' eating the fat of the poor who were put to death/executed. Fell out of favour as medicine in the 1950s.
