How many people are genuinely stupid enough to take “truth seeking update” at face value? The most blatantly propagandistic tone you could imagine. Like watching a five year old lie.

I bet it’s millions.

Goddamn it, can we just use metric?

Good year for animation, '87.

Fair enough! Not going back though, I’m doing just fine with maapl.net for now.

All I know is that the URL says google.com, I don’t see what you’re seeing

I thought Google was ignoring the quote operator these days. It always seemed to for me, until I quit using them.

Which one? (⁠ꏿ⁠﹏⁠ꏿ⁠;⁠)

Fake news, I’ve never had bacon grease last that long. That’s why I’m not thin.

As long as they kept the nasty coat made of stitched together mouse pelts.

Yes! Thank you!

One Roll Engine is my obsessive small-time RPG system. I’ve always loved systems where you get to roll a heap of d10s, but more importantly it has a highly expressive and generalizable core mechanic that allows everyone to roll at once without taking turns, and attacks resolve in a dynamic fashion so that initiative order, damage, hit location, and contested rolls all happen in one roll. It’s great for gritty, fast-paced, lethal combats where you can give players a lot of freedom to get creative and stay engaged. It has great rules for easily killed mooks as well, so you can quite easily have huge numbers of enemies and allies all in one battle, and it takes far less time to resolve each turn - and a far greater proportion of that time is people talking about what they’re going to do. Reign uses ORE, and that includes rules for running companies (gangs, businesses, armies, entire countries even). I’ve used ORE variants to run occult horror, mecha, low-magic fantasy, slice of life, robot sci-fi, and more over the years. It’s a great system and I can teach 85% of what you need to play in just a few minutes.

Oh my god. Becky.

I don’t see how you can be a fan of physical media and still fail to see see what’s special about a community-supported video museum with a huge emphasis on physical media preservation.

Now, is it the ideal solution? Maybe, actually - imagine if the state ran it? They’d refuse to carry certain things. Stuff could disappear if the wrong type of people got into public office. As it stands, they have a huge selection of R-rated, NC-17, and unrated media. They have every genre of film, stuff you simply cannot license anymore, rare and otherwise impossible to source media, and they do it with style.

It may not work as a business model anymore, and humanity’s videography is not sanitary enough for it to work as a fully public institution - I think they’ve struck upon a perfectly workable (if inelegant) middle ground.

You wouldn’t say that about video rental if you’ve been to Scarecrow Video in Seattle. They go way beyond what any modern streamer can do. It’s an institution, and one of the only things I actually miss about the states.

There’s certainly a line between “solidarity forever” and “leftist echo chamber” but I know for a fact it’s not as fine as some of us worry. Just back your fellow leftists when they’re doing lefty shit. Talk at them later if you have a bone to pick, but back them up against the right.
