i know July's not over yet (and shit can happen) but i'm going offline for a while

The creation of humans is an interesting myth but what’s interesting to me is how many people looked at their own existence as a sentient being and went “we must’ve been made to do stuff the gods don’t wanna do”

We were made to dig irrigation canals, dude. Idk what to tell you.

In other cultures gods made humans as a side project or by accident and the humans and gods just kinda bother each other when they need something from each other. Greek mythology is like this. The gods are not fond of you, nor did they make you for a purpose. If you want something give them some dinner and leave them a note and maybe they’ll help maybe they won’t

Sometimes the divine just likes us and thinks we’re neat. This is more common with monotheistic religions I think but even in polytheistic religions there’s usually at least one guy in the pantheon who’s like no don’t kill all the people I think they’re cool

when i say “that reminds me” & theres zero connection you just have to take my word for it theres no time to explain

One struggle 🫡

if we keep getting fatter and hornier we can abolish all world militaries by 2026

literally can’t stop this abt this like the love that went into this.

I love how we got the introduction to TREE LAW a few weeks ago, when that story went viral on Twitter about the person whose neighbor illegally had all of their trees chopped down because they wanted a city view, so that we would understand what was happening when Universal thought it would be funny to deprive strikers of shade by "trimming" city-owned trees to the point of destruction.

This is an excellent example of organically teaching concepts without relying on tedious tutorials or forced, immersion-breaking expository cutscenes.

A++++ game design. 10/10, no notes.

HOT STRIKE SUMMER CONTINUES

If y'all could read this fic in my brain you would be so impressed.
