The son of a bitch really did it

I started playing Caves of Qud, which is a sci-fi rpg that looks like this

but is incredibly rich and dense on every level; there’s just so much history and lore in everything.

Anyway, after completing a quest and getting into this cave-settlement populated by albino bear-people, you meet the settlement’s weaponsmith and he doesn’t respond to you with words but with gestures, and because I’m learning American Sign Language I recognized the descriptions of the gestures as ASL. You talk to the guy for like ten seconds but I was absolutely tickled

This dickhead got blasted by a skunk Sunday night, and as a result of the stress from that and from getting bathed, he went from early-stage heart disease (which we knew about) into congestive heart failure and had to spend two days in an oxygen box until they could get the fluid out of his lungs. He’s been home for a few days, though, so now we’re re-checking him to make sure the meds are working

First thing at work today I gotta write a little article. To open up Word:

Word opens

Thank you

I think the bicycle helmet discourse really just reinforces the idea that people believe that accidents only happen to the stupid and careless, and that people who get hurt somehow deserve it. And since nobody wants to believe themselves to be stupid, or thinks they could be careless or distracted, it’s not necessary to take precautions.

And then they take safety advice as an insult because telling someone to be safe is seen as an accusation of being stupid and irresponsible, and not just a value neutral acknowledgement of statistical inevitably. We see it with masks, and seatbelts, and now bicycle helmets because everyone wants to believe they’re too clever to get hurt, and too lucky to get hurt badly, until suddenly you’re not and you have to resign, in shame, to being one of the people you previously saw as annoying nags, assuming you’re even still alive.

Shoutout to @dostoyevsky-official for finding this for me; I’ve watched this fifteen times

I can’t find that video that’s like ten seconds of four Russian guys walking down a hallway like cartoon goons

people in socialist countries have more say in their government and legal system than you do in the US but just because a variety of views and ideological struggles happen under one ruling party many believe this is ‘authoritarian,’ compared to having two parties that do the same thing, dont care what their constituents want, and give you no agency or direct say over your life
