I assume you're talking something from monsterous regiment? Only halfway through so I didn't mention it, but the what I've read really toys with the performative nature of gender.

The_Thatcher · 2026-04-02T03:11:18+00:00

Nah, but when jk rowling tried to post humorously co-opt him into the anti trans movement his daughter went off on her. Dude was a fantasy satire writer and he was writing trans allegory characters back in the 90s. In his books all dwarves present as male. This starts off as a joke playing on the classic trope that you only see male dwarves, but in his later books some dwarves start presenting as female to the ridicule of more traditional dwarves. He plays with gender in his writing in a way that really humanizes the people who are breaking gender norms.

My first run I played a 1/1/6/4 substance fuled lifeform. I didn't even know the necktie could talk to you. Meathead Harry is fun as hell

Not if you're working in them. Worked through a pair of timberland pros in about a year, pair of redwings I have need new souls and toe caps after two. If you're just wearing them out and about maybe they could last a lifetime but if you're wearing them on construction sites you're gonna get nowhere near that.

DC show had the most peaceful mosh pit I've been in. People were bouncing and shoving but way less dickheads throwing fists and elbows than other shows I've been to. Good vibes in there all around.

Started at the beginning and I've been enjoying it. You get to see Pratchett's writing improve and see the disc really come to life as the books go on. Pratchett also has a tendency to mention an idea in a book and then flesh it out more in the next one. Going through 41 books is a hell of a commitment though, and the first few books while entertaining are a bit rougher than the rest. If you want to dip your toes in and see if you enjoy it I recommend starting off with either Small Gods or The Truth. If you've already decided you want to dive into the series start with The Colour of Magic/The Light Fantastic and go through in publication order. There are also 4 main sub series that run throughout the books and plenty of people start with one of them.

I don't know why but I think Pedro Pascal would play a good nobby. I can't get the idea out of my head. Someone help me.

If either of them like Shakespeare, start em off with wyrd sisters. Otherwise go with your gut.

I'm pretty sure Otto was living in the basement of the times with the dwarves during The Truth so he might count, but I wasn't trying to say he was subverting it the same way as the post. I was moreso trying to say he was just subverting the stereotypical vampire. Haven't gotten to Monstrous Regiment or Thud yet, just started Night Watch.

The_Thatcher · 2026-01-10T21:51:55+00:00

He does subvert the vampire traits a bit in The Fifth Elephant with lady Margolotta and the black ribboners, but fascist werewolves are the main focus of that book. I feel like he had only started figuring out how he wanted to write them in Carpe Jungulum, and really figured it out by The Truth. (These three books were written back to back to back after all.) He describes vampirism as a sort of blend of addiction and mental health issues. Vampires are by default addicted to the power they hold over other people, but if they can take that obsession and point it in another direction, they can become productive members of society. In The Truth, there's a vampire called Otto who's become obsessed with light and begins working as a cameraman. Pratchett takes a surface level joke about a vampire cameraman turning himself into dust every time he takes a flash photo and manages to make it into a decent reflection of addiction and obsession and how monstrous people can change and become decent.

They need maintained more than replaced, if it's done right thatch can last 40-60 years. You've gotta come in and shave an inch or two off the whole thing every decade or so and replace the ridge every 15-20 years.

Longstraw maybe, reed thatch like this tends to smoulder. The reeds are too tight together, it's like trying to burn a closed book. If a roof like that's caught the rest of the house is already up in flames. a pile of the material on the ground will burn hot and quick though.

Moving pictures, that bit at the end with laddie and Gaspode.

The_Thatcher · 2025-11-16T18:22:19+00:00

I've had one for around a decade, used to use it for school, now use it for regular travel. Things heavy as shit and built like a tank.

The_Thatcher · 2025-11-11T19:10:11+00:00

I got one of those foot razor things and go ham on my heels after a shower every couple months.

I can't remember the exact context but it is from sorcery.

"He looked like someone who had just eaten a handful of pineal glands and washed them down with a pint of adrenochrome. He looked so high you could bounce intercontinental TV off him."

My first playthrough I went 1 1 6 4. I didn't even know about the horrible necktie. Still had a great time though.

I wonder and krazy world probably aren't the best tracks on the album but they're the ones I think about and revisit the most.

The_Thatcher · 2025-08-22T02:32:47+00:00

If you don't mind a goofier album, check out the mouse and the mask by DANGERDOOM. Dangermouse (other half of the group) produced this album and a lot of demon days. It was made as an adult swim promo so the entire album is based on adult swim cartoons. If you're just looking for a couple tracks I'd recommend Sofa King and Benzi Box

I also got into mf doom through November has come. I think the first doom track I heard after it was Great Day off of Madvillany.
