15 years ago when Apocalypse World was new and people were beginning to understand and work with it, it was seductive to look at "acting under fire" and see, not one basic move of several, but the template underlying all the game's moves. Like @kierongillen.bsky.social 's classic gag:

Apart from anything else, I really don't think there are machine DESIGNED clothes, which is the comparison that would work here. And if anyone is making ai generated clothes, they suck.

Oddly enough, reminds me of a legendary exchange between my grandparents at the end of an argument: Grandad "I'm going to the pub, what's for tea?" Grandma: "Arseholes!" Grandad: "Only bake one, I'm not coming home!"

I won a raffle at the local ironmongers for my choice of wood splitting tools. I wanted the really heavy axe with the thick wedged head, but the owner said, "sorry, that's already been sold to someone else." Ah well, you can't win the maul.

My Rage Against the Machine/Les Mis mashup is complete. This is my interpretation of the quilt guild’s summer challenge “quilt with your interpretation and/or feelings towards our current ‘democracy’” all hand stitched.

Quilt hanging on a card catalog. Neutral background with navy cursive appliqué “Do you hear thr people sing?” The background is embroidered in red starting light and getting bolder the lyrics to “killing in the name” the quilting effect is a focused sunburst from the center.

People will bang on about "emotional blackmail" and you look and it's like trans people being stripped of gender affirming healthcare saying this is going to cause massive mental health fallout, a fact that in medical circumstances tends to be used as a definition of what trans people are.
