An awkward realization

  • The second book, Claw of the Conciliator, is the hardest slog with the most confusing ending (but is ultimately rewarding when it ‘clicks’).

    However the third book, Sword of the Lictor, is the best in the series. So many of the best moments are in this book, as well as some of the most famous quotes.

    For me, the masquerade ball at the Archon’s palace is the “buckle up” moment for the rest of the story.

    For a real trip, restart book 1 immediately after finishing book 4: there is so much you will see know that you know what to look for.

    Also matey, the audible audiobooks are amazing 😎

  • Wow, some of these are genuinely good, so evocative and visceral 👌

    She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up.

    McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled with vegetable soup.

    The plan was simple, like my brother-in-law Phil. But unlike Phil, this plan just might work.

    My favorite part of the job

  • Amen, I am equally puzzled.

    Truly some of the worst FF decisions all in the same game.

    Why is the key to the postgame dungeon a piece of undifferentiated loot? Why did the game allow me to accidentally lock myself out of the postgame by selling it?

    Why is the story is a low effort clone of Star Wars?

    Why set FF12 in the world of FF:Tactics but make no reference to it?

    Why, oh why, an all-women-race of playboy bunny girls in lingerie and heels?

    That being said, programming your own teams’ AI is peak jrpg wish there was more of that. This baby got thrown out with all that dirty bath water unfortunately

  • Kampfradler. I read War-Roader -> Roadwarrior but Google translate says Combat Cyclists... So... Battlerider? Sweet👌

    Is it that battleriders are taking the streets away from drivers? and that since only drivers carry the taxburden then battleriders don't deserve their own rideways?

    They are a boomer because their "cure" (give them no roads!) just feeds the "disease" (they took muh roads!)?

    This looked way way easier to decode when I first scrolled past it 😂

  • Knoppix wow, a whole OS on a cdrom. My first foray into Linux, I think read about it an issue of MaximumPC (or maybe it was Maxim)

    I felt like such a sorcerer when I crossed the threshold from just burning bootleg media to burning and running an ephemeral operating system.

    Thanks for reminding me knoppix is still alive and kicking

  • the traffic light coalition

    a road in dustbowl conditions, the whole east has that problem

    lots of German flags and judging by the colour an AfD one

    Damn, thanks for bringing the context! Never heard of a traffic light coalition before, TIL

  • How did I do?

    Four years later in mecklenburg-vorpommern

    Panel 1. spring: travelers must go

    Panel 2. summer: where travelers?

    Panel 3. fall: knifemen must go

    panel 4. where knifemen?

    Is it a joke about immigration critics? That they fucked around and now they're finding out?

    The moral fiber of Captain Archer

    I actually read somewhere that Archer did nothing wrong and afterward I began remembering all these scenes haha.

    Is this still a thing? I haven't played for a long time

    Also, Engineering: divert all life support to shields and Helm: initiate attack pattern alpha 💪

    Gowron delivers every single time 👌

    House of Quark is a high point where he saves Quark’s life and allows a Klingon woman to inherit her own house.

    Tacking Against The Wind is a low point where he is reduced to a cartoonish mustache-twirler.

    A history of violence

    Possibly unpopular opinion: Harbinger is one of the absolute best episodes of Enterprise

    Who says S31 gets to have all the fun?

    These episodes live rent-free in my head.

    In hindsight, "the Xindi attack" was a phase change into a much more hard-boiled season of Enterprise.

    They cranked it up way past 10, all the way to 24.

    I wasn't ready for a 28 episode sustained descent into darkness

    I look at you, and I see the person I was three years ago. The explorer that my father wanted me to be. I lost something out there, and I don't know how to get it back.

    This one hit me hard after everything that happened.

    Watching Enterprise for the very first time

    I'm finding it a very root-beer-flavored entry in the franchise.
