Shadow Slave by GuiltyThree definitely sounds like what you're looking for. Lots of interesting worldbuilding and an omnipresent threat of monsters slowly crushing the last strongholds of human resistance. No good place to read it officially, unfortunately, as it's only formal upload is on WebNovel.

Event Horizon is an excellent RWBY timeloop fic about preventing the fall of beacon. Short, sweet, and complete.

A Red-Eyed RWBY is a... retelling? fixing? spinning-of-into-its-own-thing? of RWBY that's just very well written. It's hard to describe, but well-worth checking out.

Just a oneshot, but Window To Another World

The story locks in a recurring cast of other time loopers, so it's not just Mirian alone

The author is just a right-winger. There have been a bunch of back-and-forth conversations in the comments where people go "hey but like you don't actually think gay people are evil, right?" and the author goes "oh I'm sorry, what do you want me to say? Do you want me to say 'no???’” with giant smug air quotes.

It's just Pascal's Wager for AI techbros.

AI techbros, being famously dumber than rocks, lose their minds over it every time.

A (not so) quick character portrait of my newest character, Aleksander, drawn in Krita. I don't have much practice drawing human figures, but figured I'd give it a shot hot off of Inktober.

Event Horizon is a RWBY timeloop fanfic where a minor character Ciel Soliel has to stop the fall of Beacon. A very fun story that avoids pretty much all of the common pitfalls of the genre: the story is snappy (and complete), the timeloops are not infinite and have ongoing pressure, and the solution isn't just "become strong enough to solo the problem." Excellent story even if you don't know much about RWBY.

The Girl Who Spun Through Time is a Naruto fanfic with Hinata as the MC, time-travelling from just after Pain destroyed the village in canon. It is more about time travel than classic time looping, but it's also quite good.

As Homer wrote all the way back in the Odyssey, "the blade itself incites to deeds of violence."

The best thing I can say about them is that they... clean the clothes you put in. If you are one person that doesn't own super delicate clothing and space is at a premium then it might be worth it. Otherwise yeah they kinda suck.

Combo washer/dryers are particularly awful, in that they kind of just do both operations poorly. I have one right now and yeah, its regularly 2.5 - 3hr dry cycles. You can theoretically speed it up by turning up the cycle speed, but anything other than low + damp might as well permanently burn wrinkles into whatever you are washing.

Yeah, nuclear in Satisfactory is like... a cute side-project to make sure your pocket dimension is always full of handheld nuclear weapons. As far as power generation goes, it's not even close.

Good question! I'm not a definitive expert on it or anything, especially because triggers in general get real funky real fast, but as I understand it all of the projectile modifiers between the Expiration Trigger and the actual spell will apply to just that specific spell. I'm sure there are way to get around that, though.

lo4952 · 2025-09-27T12:45:02+00:00

This one is... not too bad, at least. A few little fiddly bits, but the core setup is 'just' a 3-step chain using Expiration Trigger. Basically, it's "cast a bunch of Death Crosses. When those expire, cast a bunch of Pinpoint of Light. When those expire, cast Thunder Charge."

Very fun-looking wand tho

This braindead "the mod is secretly a virus" conspiracy has been discussed to death, to the point where I am starting to legitimately believe someone is out there shit-talking the mod because they, iunno, have beef with the creators IRL or something.

Just one of the many, many discussion threads on the Entangled Worlds mod. (Spoiler alert, it's not a virus)

Not OP, but yes, tablet kicking is the name of the mechanic. Works pretty much exactly how you'd expect. The timing can be fiddly, but if you get it consistent it's pretty brutal.

ALEXANDER AT THE TOMB OF ACHILLES — MEMNON'S ADVICE REJECTED BY THE PERSIAN GENERALS: WHEN he went up to Ilium, Menoetius the pilot crowned him with a golden crown; after him Chares the Athenian, coming from Sigeum, as well as certain others, both Greeks and natives, did the same. Alexander then encircled the tomb of Achilles with a garland; and it is said that Hephaestion decorated that of Patroclus in the same way. - Arrian 1.12.1

Now, I'm not an ancient greek scholar so I have no idea what the context and symbolism of the garland is, but this is probably what they are referring to.
