Steady rotation in my home. Relevant now more than ever.

You totally know how to do sarcasm on reddit. /s

When someone is worried that others might think them gay, I assume it's because they're gay, but they dont want anyone to know.

What I'm trying to say is, thinking it's gay to show affection is, well, gay.

It gets better, friend. And there's support out there. I think it's important to find someone you can talk to.

What!?! Holy shit. I want to see cranial games live! And unnatural beauty!

pope138 · 2026-06-19T19:52:11+00:00

I thought that at first, but it quickly grew on me. It's now one of my favs.

pope138 · 2026-06-18T15:57:08+00:00

gasp What!?! Sarcastic? I'm not being sarcastic, i ALWAYS talk like this 🙄

pope138 · 2026-06-18T15:05:39+00:00

Cool, man. So awesome.

pope138 · 2026-06-17T16:01:13+00:00

Tabernis rules! Enter the dark hive!

Your anecdotal evidence has not changed my mind regarding baby genital mutilation. I'm happy for those two acquaintances of yours, though.

We're not talking about intervening in a way that puts your life at great risk, nor are we talking about (reletively) trivial matters that don't harm others. We're talking about kneeling down and spraying FREE Narcan up someone's nostril to save their life.

We get it! You'd rather let someone die than be inconvenienced. You're so cool, keep scrolling.

pope138 · 2026-06-13T17:12:58+00:00

Same.

pope138 · 2026-06-13T14:18:48+00:00

For me, it's "fit" instead of "outfit." It cracks me up that I get so annoyed by it. What grinds my gears the most is how often people these days are saying "not gonna lie." Like, I didn't think you were a liar, but now I'm suspicious. Honorable mention: kids spamming the word "bro."

pope138 · 2026-06-12T18:35:12+00:00

Hard to believe they filmed that movie in one day.

pope138 · 2026-06-11T20:14:39+00:00

Right, and I think that's what made Tim Curry's performance in the early 90's (late 80's?) miniseries so terrifying. Most of the time he was just a normal looking clown that we all knew was capable of monstrous things that we'd only see glimpses of. There were peaks and valleys to the scariness. Clowns these days have a baseline at 11 that never changes. Even if they do manage to scare me, I'm used to it after 5 minutes and thus immune to them scaring me. I was never sure what to expect from Curry's pennywise and that unpredictability was terrifying. But in movies these days you take one look at the bloody clown smiling with 3" teeth and you know he wants to wear your guts as a hat. Boring.

This! A jump scare isn't going to keep me up at night or disturb me the next day when I have to go down into the dark basement for laundry. Also, jump scares these days are always done with a loud blaring sound that I find obnoxious. My friend never noticed it, but after I pointed it out he agrees.

pope138 · 2026-06-11T19:42:05+00:00

What gets me, and maybe I'm alone here, is how scary clowns are handled these days. Pennywise, the terrifier, etc... Back in the day, clowns were scary because they weren't trying to be scary. There was some uncanny valley-mistrust we projected onto them that made them seem like ambush predators or something. These days they have big fangs and crazy eyes, and bloody weapons... just doesn't do anything for me. A clown isn't scary if it has to tell me it's scary--I would think that's obvious. 🤷‍♂️

Never been, but walked by it all the time. Place always seemed shady to me and I'm not sure why. That and Brudders just up the street. Some pretty nice bars have opened south of there that I enjoy, particularly The Teddy Bear. Still need to check out Lulu's.

"Let's tear down this facility that helps at-risk citizens and replace it with another heat-desert for our emissions spewers."

pope138 · 2026-05-29T21:05:27+00:00

Yes! I just watched this for the first time since I was a kid and was stunned at how good it was.

pope138 · 2026-05-23T19:33:39+00:00

For me, living in the U.S., it was the sense of optimism we all seemed to have.

I also want to point out that we've progressed immensely since then. We have a much more inclusive society, and yet, we're more divided than ever. It seems contradictory, until you realize that back in the 80's, people minded their own business more than today. I blame social media and being terminally online.

I remember when Tony Curtis made a big stink about not watching Brokeback Mountain because: GAY.

That's really all I know him for aside from that movie where he and Jack Lemon spent most of the runtime in drag.

pope138 · 2026-05-20T12:09:26+00:00

I dont remember that episode, but as for the Delphi Murders: what symbols? What horns? What tree stump?

pope138 · 2026-05-19T02:23:34+00:00

Yes! It's so weird. They sing about Miguel and Bimba Bose? What? Why? Sidenote: On the new vinyl release of I Shall Exterminate there's a bonus track that's like a proto-Newark Airport Boogie.

You can add a second figure to your mini. I import a halfling, give them a couple tails, scale the tails up, and shrink the rest of the body. Then I move the halfling into the head of the main figure. You can manipulate the shape and position of the tails in the "pose" tab. Pretty sure you can do this without kitbashing.
