Highly, *highly* recommend The Artisan of Glimmith (and not just because I made a few puzzles for it). I talk a lot about the beauty of logic/pencil puzzles and this is one of the most accessible ways to see it!

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

i think it would be even funnier if multiple species somehow came to decimal *separately*. "wait you guys use decimal too? but you have six fingers—" "yeah we hate it! a bunch of us think we should have gone for senary..." "omg us too!"

My favorite justification for why sci-fi/fantasy races look humanoid is that humans are the crabs of sentient life. just like how stuff keeps evolving into crabs, for some reason sentient species tend to end up being humanoid. carcinization (or anthropomorphization in this case) on a galactic scale

mathematicians: This is the Schlüsman-Katsuhira transform. It took researchers over 250 years to discover. Only 30 people in the world know how it works. tech artists: This is the Schlüsman-Katsuhira transform, or as we call it in the biz, "ol' Schlussy". We use it for realistic cheese textures :)
