the best thing about rulette 2 is that i do think it adds substantial mechanical improvements to the game design of the first iteration — paul and sam as ‘players’ intended to follow and be called out on rules, interesting new rules/prompts/modifiers, the golden rule concept, etc. — but all of that slowly but surely becomes overshadowed by josh ruben landing by chance on all of the specific rules that transform him into a baby-themed tongue-heavy gyrating monster

i love game changer because the most incomprehensible bits will come outta there and i just know im NEVER going to be able to explain “Sepia tone. I’m gonna kill him so much. Al Pacino” to ANYONE

Why would I consume new media when I can just listen to the Worm audiobook again?

i think the crux of human misery stems from the fact that our skeleton just wants to sit around and accumulate dust in an ancient barrow (that is the innate imperative of all skeletal remains in-case you didn’t know) but our meat has its own agenda which creates this fundamental conflict of interests

my organs keep whining about self preservation , my bones? playing the waiting game

There is comfort in knowing the bones will win

ominous……

Leave my flesh to the worms. “There is comfort in knowing the bones will win.”

top 5 most diabolical robin hobb scene transitions is in City of Dragons right after little phron has been named and malta starts fondly thinking about when selden was a baby and voices how worried she is about him since he’s been missing for so long, to which reyn assures her that selden is tough enough to take care of himself. line break, scene change, hard pivot to selden half alive, deeply traumatized with a hunk of his shoulder missing, about to be turned into a one-man buffet for the duke of chalced.

That reaction is gold tho

don’t focus on your responsibilities you need to make gay shit for a dying fandom

robin hobb naming the fool beloved then having them give the name to fitz so they're both beloved in her "something is deeply wrong with me and i am inherently unlovable" saga is making me cry
