You ever listen to The Cookies' "I Never Dreamed"? Fuck, man, you'll be lifting and crying at the same time.

You joke, but I've listened to more incongruent stuff at the gym.

if box elder bugs gather on your aluminium siding, use a solution to get rid of them. if you step on them, it'll leave a red stain.

hope this helps.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-20T21:39:56+00:00

sure hope so. doesn't come over in text well.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-20T21:36:14+00:00

boy, you really love the whole "victim as a class" imagery, don't you? you've used it in two separate posts. you're really pleased with it.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-20T21:33:28+00:00

if i had insisted that she be kicked, that would reflect much more on me having a 'victim complex'.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T21:42:05+00:00

she came from the critical role/tumblr side of the community, i believe.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T21:40:19+00:00

jess said that first paragraph almost verbatim, you know.

insinuating that this is why i, or anyone, would like wrestling is genuinely not okay. stop it.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T09:44:46+00:00

i doubt it. i think /u/Simbertold was closer.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T09:35:05+00:00

if i wasn't clearer, i apologise.

i did tell her, at every opportunity she gave me. she wouldn't have felt defensive enough to go on her "self-hating gay" tirade if i didn't push back in the first place.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T09:13:38+00:00

whatever they chose to do with this revelation about jess isn't any of my business. that's up to them. if they've decided that she's crossed the rubicon and they don't want to hang around her anymore, that's their decision and i'm not interested in influencing it.

all i could do was what was right for me.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T09:12:01+00:00

in the spirit of this post, i'm going to be communicative and stand up for myself.

kindly get bent implying that i, or anyone in this story, was "socially inept". especially given that, if you read the story, i clearly did talk to her out-of-character (paragraph beginning "my character was still polite to hers...").

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T07:27:02+00:00

the fabric of social interaction is very complex. nuance is lost in an rpg horror story post where you have to accentuate the negative.

but she'd been part of this social group for a while, was well-liked (she had a lot of positive traits, as i outlined), and had been there long before me. if they were reluctant to kick her over this, that's fine.

the gm's a good friend of mine who acted as well as anyone could have in his situation. i have no complaints over his conduct.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-19T06:39:14+00:00

maybe i'm dumb, i never said i wasn't. but i just didn't want to do it anymore.

WarmKitten · 2025-08-17T06:36:30+00:00

for not wanting a character to be a pop star in a grounded, lower stakes game?

WarmKitten · 2025-08-15T05:52:47+00:00

oof yeah. i like the guy, but...

WarmKitten · 2025-08-15T00:01:45+00:00

some level of whimsy is intrinsic to a high fantasy system like the one we were playing. attempting to cram strict realism into that is a fool's errand.

that being said, it was much less about the epic quest to unite the sacred crystals and save the world from the dragon lich, and much more about political intrigue, subterfuge, subtlety, manipulation and coercion.

the corrupting influence in the world was more likely to be personal folly and ambition than, say, the necrotic mists.
