yes

Have you looked at Mausritter? You play as mice, and it is OSR. My understanding is that it is in the print-and-play tradition.

Honestly, never heard of this before. Gonna try this for brainstorming. I think this might work well for this specific book idea since I have a bunch of plot beats I would like to hit but not a very strong opinion about what order to hit them in.

I think they don’t federate by default

I think this would probably be the real reason

I’m really hoping this market crash affects the housing market so I might finally be able to afford a down-payment for a house

Not really. I did for a while on Mastodon but then the one I picked announced it was going to shut down. So I left

There are two parts to this problem.

For kids who haven’t hit puberty, there is a diagnosable pedophilia disorder. This is mostly genetics. (I’m pretty sure I’ve met an alpaca that was a pedophile once.) The molester’s brain is wired wrong. Nothing to do about that. IMHO, they deserve pity as long as they keep their hands off the children.

For teenagers, the attraction is the power dynamic. Teens have a rather distorted view on what is attractive, and they tend to be naive and easily manipulated. On top of this, almost all teenagers have next to no impulse control, and many will make very very bad decisions (even knowing that the decision is bad) if doing so might result in some form of dopamine hit via sex/adrenaline rush/video games/peer approval/etc. Adults that seek out teenagers for sexual relationships are bad people who chose to be a groomer. There is no genetic component to being a groomer, and they don’t deserve pity.

Btw, I can flesh out my claim about the alpaca if you want, but it will have to have a tw for adorable fluffy animals suffering a horrifically slow and painful death.

You are doing the lord’s work

That may be why he had no customers

I think we are the frogs being boiled in the pot of enshittification

Thanks, ill look into that

Honestly I do agree with Linux being more reliable overall. That being said, I do think the biggest benefit Linux has given me is reinforcing a habit of backing up all my stuff constantly, since I never know when I’m going to try something stupid on an impulse.

Devil’s Advocate: I have been unable to play the sims ever since EA moved it to the EA games launcher. Origin was poorly written, but the new launcher barely works on windows, let alone on Wine.

What in the actual fuck does he think is going to happen

I haven’t been having any issues so far

Yes. Absolutely 100% yes. I meet people my age who have comparable tech skills to my grandpa. This is not related to age, its related to how much work you put into your devices.

I totally get the appeal of jumping spiders, and I would totally be keeping one as a pet if my Fiancée was willing to have a Horrid Beast of Flying Terror within our apartment lol.

What kind of small weird friend do you have?

Your girls are so adorable!

I haven’t really grokked the fact they can be litter trained, but I suppose the fact that my fiancée’s little potatoes have never pooped or peed on me should have tipped me off that it was a possibility lol

My favorite piggy behavior is rumble strutting. When we got our newest pig (Coffeecake) it was hilarious to see our older pig (Oreo) attempting to assert dominance with his awkward rumble strutting. I could practically see them talking to each other:

Oreo: “Hey, um, I’m the big boy around here. Um. So. You’d better get out of our, I mean my food bowl. Please?”

Coffeecake: “Starve, grampa!”

Poor oreo has bottomed for every cage mate he’s ever had. When my Fiancée first picked him out, he had been separated from the rest of the herd at the pet store because they were worried they others wouldn’t let him get to the food bowl at all. But after 3 years of hard work to become the biggest, fattest piggy (and after Coffecake got neutered and settled down) Oreo has finally become the dominant piggy as of a month ago. I think he deserves it.
