But it’s a loan, not a grant. If you’re paying off debts, you’d surely start with the $1,000,000 one, no?

Hatsune Miku wanted a haircut

That sounds nightmarish.

“Stu? What are you doing?”

“Making chocolate pudding.”

“It’s 4 o’clock in the morning. Why on earth are you making chocolate pudding?”

Chrono Cross!

Wondering if Project Mirai DX would also count…

The Faith No More cover is the better version imo

Fucking haunted

The Incarnations of Immortality series.

Instead we just kept getting Xanth novels.

Now, don’t get me wrong, Piers Anthony is questionable at best, but the deep continuity and relationships and overall cohesion of the characters across several novels (we don’t talk about the Good/Evil/Night DLCs) was actually quite impressive.

If they’d succeeded more in a commercial sense maybe we’d have a cool remake or something.

Fucking thank you.

Wait and see.

NK Jemisin’s trilogy, that starts with The Fifth Season.

(I can never remember if the proper title of the trilogy is Broken Earth or Shattered Earth!)

しばいたろうか？

お疲れ様 (good job+“you look tired”+“I an acknowledging this and presenting recognition of your effort”)

Keigo modifiers. ご覧 vs 見る. They both mean “look”. One is, somehow, more polite.

Kansai dialect. しばいたろか (“wanna get smacked?” but it’s playful) or まいど (“thanks” but also “nice to see you again” and “hello” but only in specific contexts between specific people. Mess it up and you’ll probably hear the other Kansai term previously described.)

Now you have.

An idea for a game I had as a kid before I realized such limitations existed was a game where you start from the earliest parts of prehistory, and you are Death. The Grim Reaper. Shinigami. HE WHO TALKS LIKE THIS. However you want to slice it.

From the beginning, you decide who lives and who dies, and the manner of their demise; your choices would influence the course of history not only based on who is left living, but also the way that people died would influence future cultural or historical or societal developments. For example, a beloved public figure dying of cholera might encourage more medical research.

Possibly, advances in medical technology or safety measures could thwart or balk you, although I would prefer to take the angle that death can never be denied and is inevitable.

This would not work as a video game because there would simply be too many branching timeline possibilities for one, and for two, there’s not really a win state. It would be more like a sandbox or ant farm.

But what relation does a game about stealing have with an anime about drill-wielding robots?

I wonder where I could find more members of the club. I should try searching “motherless”!

Wow, all of those apply to me as well.

In addition to the above…

Sometimes you just tell yourself “time is passing, no matter what I do. Eventually it will be enough, even if I do nothing.”

That was a better ending than expected tbh
