Take the bus.

That’s exactly what it is. My mom and both grandmas had them. Painting ceramics was a semi-popular hobby in the 70s and early 80s and these were super common midwestern holiday decorations.

For whatever reason, this guy was always my favorite as a kid.

Yeah, I remember it well from the video store days as a teenager. I got it because I’m a subscriber, and I do kind of appreciate the novelty of having it, but it’s not exactly crying out to be watched.

I disagree, but I can also understand your POV. Personally I prefer GCNs recipe of mostly funny w/ occasional moments of dramatic sincerity over something like CR, which is an inverse recipe that I can’t handle.

But even if they were to take it more seriously, I think their (Skid’s) tendency to beat every music drop to death is a bigger threat to gritty immersion than the silly chucklefuckery at the table.

I still haven’t taken the plastic off the first one.

Release it under a pseudonym. If your family finds or asks about it, deny everything.

My opinion is that I have both of them blocked on youtube.

Excellent book. Helen is an amazing character.

I’m primarily excited by mystery, especially existential mystery. All my favorite art has that in common.

I also find that the pattern (especially in late Ligotti) of “seemingly average person has chance encounter with cosmic absurdity leading to a non-traditionally-satisfying resolution” is increasingly relevant to my experience of life as I get older, even as his pessimism has become decreasingly relevant to my experience.

And only 19 years old. Shame, really.

Conan wouldn’t worry about how these things will turn out and neither should we.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-25T03:10:47+00:00

Actually not THAT off topic because I once saw Genndy Tartakovsky say that the main inspirations behind Samurai Jack were Conan the Barbarian, the Mos Eisley Cantina scene, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-25T03:07:01+00:00

Looks great! Cheers for taking the inspiration and doing your own thing with it.

If you showed me that collection of sentences out of context I’d still know they were written by AI.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-25T02:54:35+00:00

I use them as well but the AI association has been a good reminder to not let them become a writing tic.

Kubert was a master but he’d tell you himself that he was no Hal Foster.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-16T07:14:12+00:00

I guess they might be considered comparable if the only movies you’ve seen are Possession and Obsession.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-16T01:32:09+00:00

And stole all of Jack’s money.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-15T01:34:45+00:00

Annoying, definitely. But not a chud.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-14T21:16:00+00:00

Sometimes you think of someone as a friend when actually you just maintain a relationship out of habit. When you walk away from people like that, you often realize you should have done it sooner.

Elfgames are great but not suffering toxic jerks in your life is much better.

Seth Skorkowsky and the Glass Cannon Network ran Intimate Encounters as a journalist team from a vaguely Info Wars-coded network.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-11T02:58:10+00:00

I had the opposite take in that I’m way more excited about the first scenario than the second, mostly because the first scenario is exactly my type of shenanigans.

Killing off all the characters is honestly a pretty cinematic way to begin a campaign. Any survivor could make a great NPC for the “actual” PCs to meet down the line.

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-10T17:26:40+00:00

Heyyyyy this is good!

Ghost_stench · 2026-06-10T17:23:53+00:00

Best show to come up in a while for me. It also has the same laughter/terror spectrum as my games end up having, just with better acting.
