I realize that the entire academic publishing industry is a racket but my god it being this in my face all the time when I'm doing research is driving me insane

Rogue City Unfinished Business is feeling like it's just a little too long in every level. Like this was stretched out a little too much in order to make it stand alone

Me: So, Mr. Franklin, is this the America you had- Benjamin Franklin: Do you have any more “hentai” of this “Ushiromiya Natsuhi”? Me: Maybe a little, sir, but she’s not a terribly prominent character in the source material. Most people feel inclined to draw the other characters. Ben: Figures.

Ahem. I've thought of an idea that will really stick it to those ICE boys: I will make them super-duper triple promise to follow the rules.

NEW VIDEO Last year, Steam banned Vile: Exhumed, a twisted horror experience that pulls no punches, and one of my favourites of 2025. Here's why I loved the game, and why it was wrong of Steam to ban it (and other titles too...) youtu.be/c-qaFjqJuQ4

for years I've shown my non canadian friends this poster and the history of Alberta's very strange crusade against the rat and finally, finally I got to buy one. Picking it up from the provincial archives on thursday

Actually I was being polite and saying what i wanted to say ain't proper but also, if this is the system you're being forced into, if your ability to save a fucking life cant even buy you empathy Don't save these fuckers. This goes against every moral and training aspect I have but don't save them

Its really surreal seeing international talk about your country and PM and its because he gave a speech about the post war order being a scam the entire time but it worked for the west till now so we let it happen

Finished an ending of SHf on the hardest combat difficulty and man that's where you really can see some major shortcomings in the enounter design, but also seeing that sometimes it appears that the counter stuff just doesn't work outright. Which feels a great deal more annoying than just dying

Man one of the most annoying neolib post types is showing Obama who "earned" his Peace Prize and like, this entire fellating of trump and the peace prize is stupid but no state leader deserves a peace prize particularly Obama. I think the Peace Prize lost validity when Kissinger got it

Cheese is now waxed and goes into the fridge to age for at least 4 months now. Gonna try and make two more batches next weekend and set them to age for 6 months and a year respectively

theanarchistlibrary.org/library/umbe... History never repeats but it often rhymes. Reading Umberto Eco's Ur-Facism should be the least you do.

unsurprisingly that's because it is the iron cross used by the nazis (and others but ofc that's not the reason they chose it)

Decided to start A Witch in Mongolia before the adaptation in July, and while I think there's a few soft bits in the writing and a few too many early time skips as table dressing, conceptually and art wise this is an absolute vibe and you can definitely tell the artist was trying to capture

Friend and I out for the hockey game tonight

I cant believe that after a good chunk of time a GBC meme has hit my timeline and I have to be reminded about how mediocre that show was despite people trying to convince me the characters were interesting

I'm very tired

I wonder if I should finally discontinue the bit and watch some Star Trek

My coworker always pronounced "Italian" as "eye-talian" and its all I can do to restrain myself in correcting him

what if the onryō blasted cigs

Did a loaf of whole wheat yesterday and used a sponge rise beforehand to make it more fluffy than whole wheat normally is, but might have succeeded too much as it was so soft and fluffy you near had to catch and ease it down as you cut into it

Tarr's death has reminded me that I really need to sit down with some of his films, the Satantango adaptation in particular, but also in a general sense since he was such a unique force from what I've read

The "waking up via anxiety attack" is a particular type of hell because you'll straight up know there's nothing going on but that adrenaline spike just fucks your whole day up anyways

tell me you've never smelled hockey gear without telling me you've never smelled hockey gear

Finished a first run of Kemono Tea Time and that's some pretty good video game there. I think, design wise, I have a few qualms about the structure, but the narrative itself, interesting and effective. Highly recommended for a little of of sad times.

Me trying to apply for a small business tax credit "Yes I am running a profitable PMC in MW5"

The MechWarrior 5 Black Knight experience

Crushing karaoke on the lead up to New Years proper

"You look tired"

Its fun because the bar I'm a regular at always has Hells Kitchen episodes running and its very entertaining having "the harsh" laid down and it feels like the easiest part of your apprenticeship as a tradesman

Nothing like finding out the discard from making a certain food, in this case cheddar cheese, can be used to make another type of byproduct

But who can say no to faces like this

I've realized that I quite like collecting plushes over the last couple years and you'd think that'd be a cheaper hobby than say figurines and yet

>Ah yes, we need to change the direction of the Merry-Go-Round. >Rin Tohsaka for some fucking reason:

people will say, "if you love david lynch you gotta embrace the nadine superman cheerleader and james mechanic for a femme fatale arcs in S2 of twin peaks" and i say no i do not

Cheese making set arrives today which means I require...supplies for the weekend

boy do I love grifter youtube. Most of these have relatively few views so whatever I guess, but that bread one has millions and a cursery 5 minute watch already had so much incorrect and conspiratorial nonsense in it I cannot imagine a lick of good proper science in the lot of them

happy winter; after 3 years i figure it's time to upload some concepts from pentiment. here are some animals :]

Looking through the local jerky place's website and remembered I have one of these gems hidden away somewhere in the kitchen

How do you beat -30 and below weather? Vessels of hot sake till you can't feel the heat

www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqB3... Iranian and Mongol aspects in a series directed by Yamada? I cannot stop winning. This is laser targeted at me.

Spending boxing day canning jars of stew, pickling carrots and making bread

Homemade butter made today

When I was packing for my trip to my parents place I felt a couple objects in my suitcase and thought "I usually clean this thing out what did I leave?" It was a history book and a tin of snuff tobacco. That tracks i suppose

🎄Happy Holidays🎄

Bankrupting my PMC to buy bigger mechs to be able to survive the contracts I've locked my PMC into in order to make money.

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.
