Part 175 of 200 in historically interesting things to inspire your ttrpg dnd The final edict of Emperor Wu of Han, one of the most significant ancient Chinese emperors, 87 BC. It was an instruction to his crown prince. Preserved by a copy on a piece of wood discovered in 1977. Words in alt txt

LRS: “…the only cultural workers you respect are the dead ones.” If it were me I would have added a couple more words to that last sentence but then again it probably wouldn’t have gotten published.

With alt text.

I REALLY LIKE WRITING IT IS COOL AND FUN

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy

I’m kinda losing it at Aenea giving Raul male birth control reversal without his consent when she well knows he still doesn’t know he’s the guy she fucked in the past, what the fuck is going on with this novel lol

ten thousand things are ready, now I must await the eastern wind

It was not a tragedy that Zhuge Liang died upon the Wuzhang Plains. Not a sadness that Ché was shot by the enemy in captivity. Nor that George Jackson died trying to get free. Their ideals are reborn every day.

The first of the a-z monster list!! The mighty Aarakocra, on the wing. This particular one is based on a Philippine eagle. This was a lot of work and a lot of studying, but I'm so happy with how it turned out. Soooo many feathers, but totally worth all the effort <3 more info below

buckaroos know this classic way

If anyone tries to make an AI sock puppet of me when i die i will haunt their family forever

Trying to figure out how to convince my father to never, ever attempt to AI up a simulacrum of a dead person. Because that’s a thing people can do now, apparently. And absolutely something he would do if he knew how. But if I broach the subject it could make him more curious? I hate this reality.

Indulging in the meme. Fat tits big gut uncut depicting big-armed Basil from the upcoming comic, Smashing Stars. Made adjustments to his bellybutton. #nsfw #furry

Hundreds of existing species are sentient enough that we are ethically obligated to extend to them basic human rights. In particular, the widespread use of propeller-driven ships and high-powered sonar is a crime against humanity.

You have lived your whole life in a society where sex is forbidden and expressions of sexuality are punished and shamed. How's that going?

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics" guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

I’d kind of forgotten that the Templars of Hyperion are cultists of John Muir 😭😭😭

I swear to the molding corpse of the Reverend Bayes if I see any of you jerks mouthing off about the minoho sprite refresh I’m gonna lose it

It's happening. Don't cross the picket line.

Part 9 of 200 in historically interesting things to inspire your ttrpg Samurai helmet (kabuko) shaped like an octopus. 1700s

“…the father and mother exist only as fragments…” (D&G, AO II.5)

Putting on my theory-reading hat tonight (desperately trying to make it through the fourth chapter of Anti-Oedipus)

I still need to get around to actually finishing Rebirth For him

‼️This is a Graymuzzle appreciation post‼️ Graymuzzles feel free to sound off in the replies! 👀

So close to the end of the Hyperion tetralogy that I can taste it. It’s an interesting take on “humanity’s end game” scifi. I think modern Rationalists would find the Technocore hard to believe, but I think it’s a reasonable hypothesis.

Finally got a copy of this tome of ancient Russian analysis lore.

I kinda want a donkey oc

The best way to be a vegan is to keep the analysis framed intersectionally and always with capitalism as your main target. Any other way trends to eco-fascism from what I have seen.

So close to finally winning a round of Dyson Sphere Project (after 350 hrs played) but the fucking quantum chip manufacturing is so egregious ;-;;;;

Happy birthday, Mr. Vonnegut

See you around, space cowboy.

psst it’s still of the utmost importance to codify lgbtq rights in law at the federal, state, and local level it’s still of the utmost importance to codify abortion rights in law at the federal, state, and local level

I should probably think about that philosophy blog again, it is tiresome having no one to talk to about how fucked up Hegel and the other H were.

the furries need to read theory

You too can move on from electoral politics. Release the farce and play acting. Put your energies into helping each other and building new systems of care. I believe in the people, not politicians.

Fuck it primary both senators in every state where this happened. Pour encourager les autres.

Yeah man, I also liked Cyclonopedia.

Cast doodle from my upcoming novella "Asantrea - Sunset of Empire," a classical era gay adventure bromance between two Black Hammer mercenary barbarians (Talious the roe stag and Ottokar the elk) and two Heladian legionaries (Olus the ram and Tuso the stallion). #nsfw #furryart

Kinda want to bread today but having trouble settling on a style... maybe it's just a simple milk bread day, but the house is kinda on the cool side....

Really have a soft place in my heart for québécois.

what else is there to say

Extra smelly wolf pins u down in a bathroom stall wyd (hello im almost alive sorry work killed me)

The world would be immensely better if more religions and their believers had even a tenth of the dedication the Sikhs do to doing good for people with no gatekeeping or expectations of anything other than "you are a fellow human in need and we can help you"

People believe that when you're LGBTIQ+ you come out once, but the reality is that every time you meet a new person, you have to study them to decide if it's a safe space to say it or not

to be a hero in a literary sense is to accept the solemn duty of justice and commit to abolishing the present state of oppression, constantly, mindfully, looking inwards, but also listening and suffering alongside the people that is liu beism

I deeply respect Dan Simmons’ commitment to repeating “the lions and tigers and bears” epithet in the Hyperion Cantos. This last novel in the tetralogy is kinda losing the thread but that’s almost always the case with last books.

Asterion and Khenbish....
