It’s so interesting that electronic scales accept whatever reality you preset them with.

0 out the scale? They trust whatever you put on them is the new normal

Turn a scale on with something already on it? Gravity got 500 grams heavier today.

Truly a completely submissive creature

Listening to Perpetua 33, it has never been more back than it is right now!!!

lancer oneshot character. she was made while trying to avoid drawing the same damn character every time, but since i am weak she just looks like a palette-swapped cecil.

Shout out to the crew of the Verdant Gyre, and sorry Vivisection that every 3 words were horny… I guess she just really wanted to freak that planet

I love to reach the part of an Audio Drama where they diegetically explain why the story is being recorded

The Magnus Archives’ Tapes and the Magnus Protocols FREDDIE spyware state

Wolf 359’s taped down broadcast button and the fact that the protagonist’s job is Communications Officer

Jack of All Trades’ Keystone

Station Arcadia’s, uh, Station Arcadia

Strange Case of Starship Iris’ Vree Chel Noke Nanoswarm (and, I assume reprogrammed batch of the same for the rest of the series, just hanging out with the crew of the Iris) and Captains Log

Red Valley’s paranoid recordings (I didn’t finish it, I didn’t care about the protag so the end of S1 reveal didn’t matter to me)

Bonus points if the protags use writing to avoid hostile monitoring devices and pass notes in secret

Watched White Lotus Season 1, I will stake my heart on Quinn Mossbacher being an eggy trans woman. Inside all the time, online all the time, has social struggles, flourishes outside of her family, too bad she also kinda sucksss

The whole thing sucks, they wouldn’t even notice the money was gone if it was just taken from their bank account. It’s honestly good that it’s gone because it’s a reminder of a terrible time in their life.

But that’s the point, people don’t want to let go, even if it benefits them.

Studies have found that happiness eventually stagnates at a certain income level, eventually you’re not happier, you just have more for yourself.

a friend of mine has a decently sized personal bar and one night he realized that a lot of his bottles and mixers were close to empty, not enough to make any given drink with, so he mixed them all together and it looked like the dirty water from those big floor scrubber machines. Dark purpley brown and thick and he decided it was the Floor Scrubber cocktail and actually drank it. It apparently tasted very bland.

So, a funny thing happened on trigun twitter

(amazon link where its 50% off as of May 8th: https://www.amazon.com/This-How-You-Lose-Time/dp/1534430997/)

[cadriona]

Update, “this is how you lose the time war” is now #21 on Amazon’s bestseller’s list

(semi-related note but I too have now ordered the book)

[cadriona]

another update: Amal El -Mohtar wrote a small article on her blog (https://amalelmohtar.com/i-tried-to-title-this-post-for-twenty-minutes-and-failed/), one which contains the words “[…] and the upshot of it all is that corporate marketing people at Simon & Schuster now know the name Bigolas Dickolas.”

[cadriona]

Further update!

Time war has reached #7 on the amazon bestseller’s list and is still discounted!

(thread found here: https://twitter.com/tithenai/status/1655613629604016151?s=20)

In addition:

[leebrontide]

I know it made it up to #6 at one point. Being a pre-existing fan of both Trigun and This is How You Loose the Time War made this especially enjoyable.

[kittydesade]

I’m just going to add some more Twitter screencaps I pasted into the groupchat.

The producer of Trigun Stampede. (No word from Nightow yet, I checked.)

A literary agent. To be precise, the agent of at least one of the authors of Time War.

Slate, posting their article about the whole thing.

A frenzy of mutual adoration and signed hardcover offers.

Other authors want in on the Bigolas Dickolas goodness.

Dongwon again.

Saw this on Twitter and HAH.

Bigolas Dickolas is now Alexander the Great.

And finally, the forecast is good for a livestream of Max and Amal watching Trigun.

Updates, because this is the most hilarious thing to come out of Twitter in a long time:
