Your hoarder grandfather dies and you gotta clean out his hoarder house but unfortunately he was a powerful wizard so you gotta clean out twelve tower floors of floor-to-ceiling cursed artefacts and expired mystery potions.

There's a rat infestation and you genuinely can't tell if they're natural rats or not.

He's got some really nice magical cupboards that lead to huge extradimensional spaces but those spaces are also crammed full of random bullshit.

People who are saying "this would make a good dnd dungeon": it should be Tomb of Horrors level of unfair. It should be the kind of game where players expect to get turned into a rat for not checking every cabinet door for traps and are taking thirty minute breaks to calculate the maximum weight and volume of goods that they can carry down out at once. It should be the kind of game that causes arguments about the kinds of terrain that various piles of hoarded bullshit count as and where the secret door to the final level of the tower is almost impossible to find. There should be trapdoors that collapse under characters' feet without warning and almost a guarantee that somebody's coming out of there with a cursed amulet they can't ever get rid of.

PARIS WAS NOT NAMED AFTER PARIS HILTON YOU DIPSHIT

source?

jantesika

it was obviously named after Paris, the trojan prince.

A common misconception! Paris Hilton was named after Paris, the Trojan Prince, and Paris (the city) was named after Plaster of Paris, for trade relation reasons (that plaster being the main export f the area when the city was founded).

Plaster of Paris getting its name, of course, from its inventor, Paris Hilton.

I don’t know why anybody uses ChatGPT when they can log into Tumblr Dot Com and see *bespoke* obviously stupid lies, handcrafted by a real asshole for free.

The fact that “dolls having a tea party” has stuck around in the public consciousness is fascinating to me.

Like, back in the Old Days that would be a way that women would actually socialize. So if a girl had a doll tea party, she was imitating her mom / other contemporary women.

But these days contemporary women don’t have tea parties. So now, the idea of “dolls having a tea party” is an echo of an extinct behavior, only repeated and referenced because it used to be so prevalent.

So a Barbie in a big hat themed for a tea party is a bit like if they made Transformers that turned into stagecoaches and horse-drawn buggies.
