@Shrigglepuss so music that only comes from within the scene but then sort of spawns a slightly stylised but not full musical numbers section while it plays out? I could see that.
Also this is strongly reminding me of doing theatre stuff when younger and being taught about Brecht :)
@Shrigglepuss so instead of magical realism as a genre you seek to make *musical realism* :)
I'll get my coat and all that.
Does anyone want to join a Discord server about DART (the Disability Attitude Readjustment Tool)? https://www.kingqueen.org.uk/dart-text-version/
It's for taking companies to small claims court (UK) for breach of the disability bit of the Equality Act 2010 without representation. DM for a link.
I need this poem today. Don't even know which part I want to quote the most.
Why does my cheapie Jinhao 992 not supply ink to the nib? oh upon inspection it's because I don't think the nib slit joins up to the breather hole and I think its supposed to? (although googling around is not giving me very revealing answers, looking at spare nibs this one is maybe right???).
I am now wondering if I have a drill bit fine enough to take a shot at fixing this/changing it.

"Some people seem to be unable to rationally consider the possibility that NSA is sabotaging post-quantum cryptography. I've heard people saying, for example, that submissions to the NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization Project (NISTPQC) were publicly designed and evaluated by top experts, and that NSA can't have bribed the submission teams."
Rationally consider? I have money on it.

She gathered courage, looked into those deep brown eyes.
"I love you."
It was met with a shrug.
The next day she tried again, and the next, and the next.
Met with a sigh, a frown, a hesitant smile; at last the person in the mirror mouthed the words with her, and she was whole.

USPol, Judith Butler, Roe v Wade, wider justice
So yeah Judith Butler once more hitting it out the park with interesting ideas - tying together ideas of not privacy as a basis but equality in healthcare for all, and not oppression rooted in reproduction but attempts by the state to own reproduction for a right wing "restoration project" and the need for a broad coalition to oppose this for the good of all.
@anthracite probably the continuing saga of stjepan sejic's epic Sunstone: https://www.deviantart.com/shiniez/gallery/43392512/chapters-in-pdf
One part romance, one part geeky slice of life, one part hot smut, one part author rants about good BDSM practice.
@urusan Previously owned: probably an old ceramic door knob that my mum used to use as a base to hold incense sticks, I got it from her about 20ish years ago now and it still makes up part of my altar setup.
New: a Leatherman Wave I got when I was working before going to Uni, its probably 23 years old now and still gets use although it has a lot of dings in the tools.
Celeste, Video gaming, complaining
Holy shit #Celeste ch8 Core is just brutally grim. Just fucking what.
I just died about 200 times getting through this room https://youtu.be/9dkzUG33Jas?t=358 and had to turn the invert hold mechanic on to avoid breaking my hands more holding the grip button constantly.
Its fun still but such precision in ricochet/bounce mechanics is needed that fractionally being off in angles gets you insta-killed, feels less free running than earlier sections.
@MicroSFF it may also be interesting to try and categorise them somehow and sort of variations with the categories, although I imagine that could be tricky.
