Make sure to only eat oysters fed a strict vegan diet, then you're all clear.

I think you can offer it to the Vileblood queen for some amusing dialogue where she rejects your marriage proposal. I forget if it does anything else.

Angry driving can make one quite blunt

Enough to rage over a mundane stunt

At bicyclists abreast

a roar rose in his chest

SINGLE FILE YOU TWO-WHEELED CUN--

Skeleton Warriors!

Alternative answer/joke:

I was going to joke about an unholy combination of southern-style American biscuits and UK biscuits, but I think that's just a scone!

Maybe it's an all biscuit pizza? A rich croissant-like crust, topped with cookis-n-cream sauce and big chunks of hardtack and cornbread tidbits.

Try a typing game, there's lots of them now in several genres. I learned to touch type in secondary school, doing the old fashioned thing of taping a sheet of paper over the keyboard (and typing under it) so you can't see the keys. That works but I believe in the educational power of games, and it'll be more fun.

Otherwise, just practice. If you use lemmy on mobile, try switching to desktop to type more. Start writing letters to people or short stories or anything that just encourages you to type more.

Well, banned for having mild opinions on US politics and then getting defensive when someone called them a genocide enabler. Sounds like hexbear did them a favor. If only the right-wing loonies were so quick to ban people who disagreed with them instead of setting up a big slide to draw them further in.

I'm reminded of a very passionate post I once saw about how tiktok dances have made some people afraid to dance because they aren't as good as people who literally live in dance training camps to factory -produce dance videos. Anyway, the plea was to just ignore that and dance! People largely have an innate desire to move when they hear music, and its OK to just vibe with it.

The internet has got people thinking that everything they make must be step 1 of their plan to monetize that thing and release it for global consumption. Write stories for yourself, letter for friends, and poems for no one! Dance no matter who is looking. Make art everywhere. And for goodness' sake, play table top games with friends, make up stories, and let yourself get wildly obcessed about it! It's yours! It's ok to just love the story your friends are telling and to talk about with people, and you don't even have to lament that your friend group isn't charming enough to carry the podcast of your game.

Wait until you hear about Final Fantasy numbering

Foster the People has a new album out, pretty good! Torches, their debut, is one of my favs, and I've enjoyed some of their later work too. This one definitely sounds like FtP, though I think there's a little more brass and other jazzy sounds being pulled in. I haven't listened enough to have any album picks yet.

Have you listened yet? What tracks did you like best? What's your favorite FtP song?

I had wondered about how some things were done with the new episodes. I'm glad they released some documention and kept the standardization so that the rest of the broader Doom community can build off the new release.

Ashes: Hard Reset OST by John S. Weekley

I saw over the weekend that the soundtrack had been released ahead of the upcoming (!) prequel (‼️) to the amazing series of Doom mods. The Ashes series rules, play them if you haven't. The soundtracks also rule and I had the Afterglow OST in heavy rotation all last year.

This one is pretty good. Very heavy with callbacks to the previous OSTs and to the original Doom's music. "Romero Waiting for the Train" is particularly fun for it's mix-in of my favorite OG track. I can't wait to wander more post-apocalyptic subways to this groovy tune!

Back around 2007 or 2008 I think, I watched a very cool animation on Youtube. I cannot for the life of me remember the name, and i doubt it's still up since it used a well-known song as the audio track.

It was a pretty standard (for the time) anime-style fight video, set to The Prodigy's "Smack my Bitch Up". It's cel-shaded CGI/3D, and starred a yellow-and-black Sentai-style character. I think he was like a robot superhero? The whole animation was basically a demoreel/pilot for an animator who wanted to launch a show based on the characters.

If anyone remembers this or can find a link, I'd be very grateful! It was a cool fight scene (for the time), and it always bothers me when I vaguely remember a neat thing and can find no trace of it.

 

Seriously! Thanks to all the meme makers out there for supporting Lemmy/Kbin/etc and keeping the alternatives to the corporate internet alive and fun!
