WTF related to terraria that I just realized after a year or so

Nobody, so far as I can tell, has noticed that the moon lord looks like an iron maiden reference to the seventh son of a seventh son cover

Eh, I can see it, particularly with the rib bones and whatever's going on with the brain.  There are other floating torso men but still.

What the fuck, Oklahoma? Seriously, I had just gotten excited that we might have become SLIGHTLY progressive about ONE. GODDAMN. THING.

This is not how a referendum works! You can't give the people a goddamn choice, then change it for them if they choose the one you didn't like!

Now Draig, I am totes aware of the irony of my phrasing here... but you are aware that this bill lessened the penalties for bringing/selling illegal drugs into a school zone, right? They are revoting on it to make sure people who are trying to sell drugs to kids get a mandatory felony.

Like that seems like something that should absolutely have as harsh a penalty as possible. I sort of feel like no sane person would want to lessen the penalties for that kind of thing, ergo I sort of understand where the legislators are coming from.

What was the progressive issue here that outstrips the importance of school zone drugs?

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Uh, because the people bringing and selling drugs in school zones are mostly teenagers who go to those schools? Yeah, lock the fuckers up, keep those private prisons full.

[Grapefruit Sorcerer]

Gotta get that institutionalisation started early

So I was tossing-and-turning in my bed a bit when I noticed that A) my hand hurt, B) It hurt a lot, and C) It didn't seem to be going away. So I looked at it and lo-and-behold, my pinkie was sporting a nasty looking cut, with the skin coming off a bit as well. It's healed a bit since then - although it still looks really ugly, and is particularly sensitive - but I'm amazed that I could get such a cut without realizing it. It's not the first cut I've had in a while either; recently I noticed a small but very visible cut down my upper cheek (nearish my nose) and I haven't the slightest idea when that got there.

Also apparently the city is being shut down on account of snow. Lots of snow. Lots of snow. Some "spring" break I got. Fortunately I like snow so I don't mind, but we've had so few snows and two of them come right before or during my spring break. Amazing.

I mean don't get me wrong. I can imagine just wanted to be comforted and/or understood and the person you are talking to is continuously trying to offer advice or fix it in some faction is annoying.

I do this a lot. I learned it from my mother, who is only capable of doing this. I expanded my repertoire by including "offer sarcastic bad-advice", and "describe similar situation that occurred to me" to it. I am not a helpful person; thankfully, I have a cat which does that for me.

We got over the snow and now we have a flood warning throughout the county. What a time to be living atop a hill with clear drainage paths going around it.

C'mon man, got to keep the drug pipeline running for the rich bastards that never have to suffer for it one way or another. Though now I'm half wondering how much that line of reasoning might actually have been involved. Oklahoma happen to have one of its major drug trades be one of the sorts preferred by better off folks?

'Course, as a broader thing goes, I'd probably argue pretty cheerfully against mandatory sentencing for anything, at the absolute least so far as felony classification and incarceration time goes. Shit seems to cause more problems than it solves pretty consistently, and often enough by a pretty sizeable margin. Be willing to lay good odds we'd be better off just without the damned stuff.

I can't believe it...

I love... the Lord of the Rings... I like games set in its universe, I think it is fairly creative in how it borrows from a wide source of mythology right down to its style.

Yet... Middle-Earth Shadows of Mordor.

I actually found myself arguing... No... HOPING that they breeze through or even skip all the Lord of the Rings stuff like Sauron and the Ring Wraiths... Because the Orcs are just so well done in that game, well potentially, that it just doesn't compare.

I mean... Sauron is a static villain. Yet that Warchief? Yeah he just got a new Ax.

After getting nowhere near enough sleep last night and then having to do an unexpected and awful amount of stuff this morning, I have just woken up from a monster nap. Around four hours, I'd say. From what I remember it was a rather pleasant nap, free of cares and full of (sadly forgotten now) dreams.

I feel tired, but not as wretchedly tired as I usually do after napping. Have a sort of bone-tiredness and a somewhat spaced-out feeling.
It's not so bad.

Prepare to be slightly disappointed.
I might have to replay that game though.

[hector13]

Slightly disappointed? The penultimate boss is a stealth cheese, and the final boss is a QTE!

[Yoink]

I just sorted and closed over half of my tabs after going far too long without doing so. Actually seeing the icons feels so very, very strange. O.o

[overseer05-15]

I hold a funeral for each tab that I close.
