[Spicy Prog Take] Nightcap Disc 1/The Chateau d’Isaster Tapes are way, way better than A Passion Play. Even taking into account Overseer Overture being actually good and The Story of the hare Who Lost His Spectacles being actually fun.

[M[ai]cro Trash] I mean, no, I don’t like the Rodents of Unusual Size. They should be smarter and friendlier like actual rats. And bigger. Lots bigger. Way, way bigger.

Have you ever noticed that, in the US, grownups watch talk shows and kits give them backtalk, While, in the UK, the grownups watch chat shows and the kits give them backchat?

[M[ai]cro] Some day I’m going to figure out how to do a coherent tera-macro story where someone is big enough that their right handpaw is, in fact, the state of Michigan, but that day is not today.

Yes, I really will think less of you if you immediately insist we need a ‘weekly sync up’ for every project.

[Subpost, no one here, not actually negative] > I don’t go on VR to have someone’s paw take up my entire field of view. _Clearly_ we have different uses for VR.

The fox felt the house shake and lift as huge cracks formed in the roof and vertically down the walls. “Next time,” said the raccoon, their glowing blue eyes looking down between their fingers as the house came to resemble their cupped hands, “Don’t try to hide in a world I’m _animating_.” […]

[Ramayana] Rama _always_ flosses and never talks back to the king.

“And, from the planet of the mimes” is actually a line someone was paid to write.

Stop gaslighting me, CVS. If you ran out, you ran out, but do not tell me /I/ canceled my vaccination.

[M[ai]cro] Thinking of familiars. In particular an anthropomorphic, linguistic critter being shrunk down and made a familiar by a seemingly non-linguistic, four-legged seemingly wild animal. The ‘familiar’ would have advantages, improved healing, a sense of emotional bond and immediate goal […]

[M[ai]cro] I do like owner→pet stories a lot. I should write more of them.

[M[ai]cro] When I was a kit I used to have a lot of daydreams that started out being a scientist and getting shrunk in an accident and involved going on adventures with the (now much larger) lab mice.

My kitten has _ever_ so much preyjest.

Got my kitten a distemper booster and waiting for blood work.

Me: “I sure am glad Salience has calmed down about his food insecurity. He hasn’t been crying for food nearly as much today…” Salience: _quietly chews hole in unopened bag of catfood_

[M[ai]cro] Thorfinn Hirasawa, frontbeast of the band Baraþrum, enjoys performing for little friends, drinking in their awe and delight and excitement to power their illusion magic. Their guitar is a hand-crafted artifact and the prime location from […] [Original post on tailswish.industries]

[Ramayana] …that is more semen than I am used to in literature.

[Big Finish (Doctor Who)] For what is supposed to be a Proper Regeneration Story for the Seventh Doctor, I’m half-way through and there’s very little of the Seventh Doctor.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6JLkzn3X1s I really like the transition here and what it transitions into This being the soundtrack to Gendo manipulating Shinji into starting Near Fourth Impact is right up there with the Hallelujah chorus being the soundtrack to Asuka having her mind invaded […]

No, I do not want to join your damned Discord. Why don’t you post your announcements and information on a website?

[Perennial Coder Thought] “Gosh darned stupid piece of crap that I wrote…”

[LLMs] Anything called ‘MCP’ should be a lot cooler.

[Culture] I complain a lot about how conservative Iain M. Banks’s Culture series is. _And it is_ But! I have to give him credit. The Intagliated are remarkably striking emotionally because they’re such a perversion. Something beautiful and precise and difficult that /could/ be an ultimate in […]

[Doctor Who (Big Finish)] “Shoosh with your shouting and your gendered nouns!” :fox_laugh:
