You know it's monster hunting season when adventurers come into the shop pedaling their trophies they hope I'll find useful. This time they got some actual useful hauls. I now have enough to outfit an army with tonics and elixirs, specifically cold resistance tonics and cure frostbite elixirs.

Just because you can drink Alchemist's Fire in a cold day doesn't mean you should. They are not cheaper alternatives for Fire Belly Tonics and will always lead to explosive results. #AlchemistPosting

The new radio tracks in Pacific Drive are neat, especially the songs with [[ INCOHERENT ELDRITCH SCREECHING ]]

Driving around the Olympic Peninsula, outrunning horrors I can somewhat comprehend, I pray to the gods that the Maw chasing me isn't closer than it appears.

Made a small QoL update to the website. Now it's easier to read articles in sequence with next and previous buttons. Also the chronicle page updates with new content without having to completely redraw the page. Saves having to rescroll through the archive and cross-checking the dates every time.

"Creative Writing is FUN!" "Creative Writing is FUN!!!" I yell aloud alone in my office. Fingernails tear into my desk, sweat drips from my brow, tears stream from my eyes as I struggle to come up with a cool sounding military company name for a personal creative project.

Out here breaking the stereotype that all Alchemists are mad scientists with no regard for morals or ethics by nature. My disregard for morals and ethics is bought with coin. How much? Make me an offer. #AlchemistPosting

Playlist idea: Chill Songs to Make Potions To

Thinking about a lecture I attended where I couldn't shake the feeling it was propaganda. And now I'm scheming about how I could better emulate that feeling in my writing.

The more I write the current series of events for my fantasy news blog the more I started to pull from real world events. Funny how my creative escape got sucked into the events I hope to get away from.

I've been posting updates for my fantasy news blog for a while and it's about time I make clear a stance on so-called GenAI. If you use GenAI to create final works for you I will assume you condone the scraping of creative works for use in GenAI to make other "works", including mine.

Don't "ding dong ditch" a demon

Replace the suffix from a job title and replace it with "-mancer" to make them more fantastical. Works best when the title includes a subject. Coder>Codemancer Photographer>Photomancer Economist>Economancer

I find it amusing how gamers need to specify that when they say they are "Beating OFF" they mean the game and not the activity.
