tbh a lot of my advice boils down to “hey you know that terrible horrible looming thing you’re doing your best to avoid and distract and escape as much as possible but no matter what you do it just keeps looming and looming and ruining your life”
“just, fuckign, run straight at it screaming.”
i needed this as a background
Me, replaying the MSQ: You know, A Realm Reborn isn't as bad as people make it out. I'm having a good time. Other than the frickin banquet--wait, no, not that banquet.
...I was a dps/healer main before hiatus, why is my muscle memory on tank
This is 100% me being a crank, but I'm getting real annoyed at seeing Ancient Traditional Crafts™ videos that depict people grinding minerals to make pigments with no respiratory protection. Like, yeah, an N100 mask isn't Authentic and shit, but do you know what powdered mica does to your lungs?
@sawdust-emperor replied:
Watching any green or blue-green mineral being ground to make pigment in these, praying it's just rough glass or some shit and not any of the almost always notably poisonous green minerals:
Being as I've also seen examples where the craftsperson is handling what appears to be raw cinnabar with their bare hands, I wouldn't say the odds are good there.

clearly some of you have not been to the labyrinth of pestilence deep beneath kentucky
alright so when I was a teenager I went to this bug-themed summer camp for socially stunted nerds and on the way back from it I visited the university of kentucky. I met with an entomologist there and while we were touring the department he asked "wanna see something cool?" so he took me down an elevator to what must've been a sub-sub-sub basement on a card-access only floor, and after turning several more corners we went through two sets of (I'm not even exaggerating) 12-inch thick doors, opening onto one long as fuck corridor. each side of this hallway was lined with about 50 refrigerators. and each and every single one of these refrigerators was filled with hundreds of thousands. of live. bedbugs. the very reasonable explanation for this was that they were doing research on insecticides and needed to test them on real samples, but they could not under any circumstances allow them to escape, so they had to be kept under area 51 levels of overkill containment. but reasonable or not that was very much not what I anticipated seeing that day. so yeah. I decided after that I did not want to become an entomologist
absolutely baffled to get to the end of that story and hear you decide NOT to be an entomologist but possibly that's the entomologist in me speaking
I'm so glad that that truncated fucking ran-into-a-wall-at-speed tadpole-ass looking squirrel only lives in high altitude forests in Borneo bc this means I am extremely unlikely to encounter one in my day to day life. thank god
Hello.
DID YOU MAKE THIS BLOG SIMPLY TO TORMENT ME
I can go upside down.
WHERE IS THE REST OF YOU
was at the aquarium with my friends and one of them pointed out a neat looking fish. and it immediately looked familiar to me, so i was like “wait wait wait guys hang on wait let me google something for you” and desperately fought with the shitty wifi for a full minute to pull up a picture of an eastern eyed click beetle. and felt like that one spider man shirt post.
ok but in my defense
another similarity to the humble click beetle
i love that we and cats share pareidolia (seeing patterns where they dont exist), but instead of seeing faces in everyday objects like us, they see snakes
that computer cord? snake. string? small snake. cucumber? short fat straight snake
snake pareidolia is one of the strongest things in human minds too! people report freezing mid-stride before being consciously aware of a snake in front of them, and the same happens with coiled rope, etc. in humans and other primates. it’s even been proposed that the need to detect snakes was a factor in the development of primates’ insanely good color eyesight
It’s because snakes are wonderful and we must stop and admire them at any cost

how to recommend the frog fractions trilogy without spoiling it
listen you gotta play frog fractions 2. well technically it's not called that, but the real title is a spoiler, and you can't look up "frog fractions 2" to find what game it is you need to play without spoiling it. so uh you gotta play every weird indie game released between 2014 and 2020 and eventually one of those games will turn out to be frog fractions 2. yes that is the intended experience
so okay when you play frog fractions 1 the best way to play it is the 2020 remake, the "game of the decade edition". you should play that before going through the process of trying to find which game frog fractions 2 is. however do not get the hat dlc until after you've already completed frog fractions 3. no I can't tell you why, and the fact that I'm even saying I can't tell you why risks slightly spoiling the experience
like the reason frog fractions 2 isn't called "frog fractions 2" is genuinely because part of the intended experience of this series is being unsure if any particular game you haven't played yet is a frog fractions game or not.
the augmented experience of playing other unrelated games and looking for secret frog fractions sequels is part of the frog fractions series. like, it is not an exaggeration to say that the real frog fractions 2 was the friends we made along the way.
and that's one of the coolest parts of this series! but there's no way to preserve that experience for someone while also like. giving them the practical information they need to actually play all these games without missing any. those are two mutually exclusive goals!
my best effort to write a guide for how to play through the frog fractions series spoiler-free
play "frog fractions: game of the decade edition", without the dlc. it's an extremely faithful remake of the original 2012 flash game and it's free. play it to completion but ignore the dlc until after you've completed frog fractions 3.
"the friends we made along the way". spend some time looking through indie games released between 2014 (when the frog fractions 2 kickstarter was funded) and 2020 (when the frog fractions 1 remake you just played was released) until you find the next frog fractions game. it is not called "frog fractions 2". the game you're looking for has been included in a few charity indie game bundles, so there's a good chance it's already in your itch.io library. do not search the internet for "frog fractions 2" at any point during this process, since doing so will spoil the "not knowing for sure which game you're supposed to play after frog fractions 1" part of the experience.
play the game that isn't called "frog fractions 2". this game is very different from frog fractions. if you've successfully avoided spoiling yourself up to this point, you won't know for sure that you're actually playing a frog fractions game until the credits, though there are plenty of signs before then. it is now safe to google "frog fractions 2".
play the other one. the third game in the frog fractions series (fourth if you count "the friends we made along the way", which I do) will be relatively easy to find on your own, now that you've already gone through the process of finding the game that isn't frog fractions 2. good luck!
the sense of uncertainty regarding if you at this point actually have played the entire frog fractions series. it's been a few years since the third-or-fourth frog fractions game was released, and these games have a history of hiding themselves. frog fractions 5 could quietly release at any point without anyone noticing. maybe it already has! I guess you gotta play every single new weird indie project on steam and itch.io with a sense of childlike wonder about what secrets this game might be hiding forever now. and that's what frog fractions is all about babyyyyyy
one of those things you only learn if you’re still and quiet enough at low tide is that thousands of fiddler crabs moving in mud make a pitter-pattern noise like soft raindrops
