I thought my mouse was dying. Turns out, it was just a pair of massive dust bunnies stuck in the pit that contains the LED that the mouse uses for movement tracking. I took a dull x-acto knife I had nearby expecting it to be a pencil and took them out and now it works better than I ever remember it working. Nice.

You should have specified that it was a computer mouse because I was really confused at first.

The confusion wrought by medical metaphors for technology named after living things is the only thing that gives meaning to life as an objective fact, I refuse to specify anything.

Spoiler: To be fair they can be one and the same (click to show/hide)

Yes, that's a real taxidermied mouse turned into a computer mouse

ice hockey  sudden death round

Now I don't know if ice hockey is misrepresented to me by the Western media, but my first thought there was not a very sporting kind of a thought (by modern standards).

In these more civilized times, going into sudden death merely means that the first team to score a goal, wins.

But where's the fun in that? I say swap out their hockey sticks with billhooks, and loosen the rules on violence on the rink a lot bit.

Lol, today I've stumbled upon "Bushes of Love" on youtube. Made by the Bad Lip Reading guys as a spin-off from their Star Wars video.
 
I can't believe how catchy this song is. And poignant, and wise

We all got a chicken-duck-woman-thing waiting for us!

After that, it was time for something dwarfy. So I started on the ability to specify materials for tasks. This'll possibly include further specifications for details like the shape of statues and wall engravings, depending on how all the complications work out. There are lots of complications, but I'm going to push at it for a bit longer and report back.

QUESTION ABOUT NOT SPECIFYING THINGS.

Also,

In a time before time, I killed me.

[Tack]

Well, specific materials were do-able before, just moderately convoluted

[Putnam]

Well, specific materials were do-able before, just moderately convoluted

it involved copy+pasting a reaction for every single possible material OR stockpile shenanigans you'd have to mix around every single time you want to make something

[Orange Wizard]

Only moderately convoluted because this is Dwarf Fortress and not a more sensible game
