Same reason some folk open the door either before washing hands or with a paper towel: it reduces how many things you have to touch in there, in situations where it makes sense to turn the lights off when you leave the room.
You think you understand a culture from seeing it on tv but you don’t really. You aren’t there. In the trenches. Trying to get a snack at 3am.
happy birthday to my idiots!
reblogs are very much appreciated- oc stuff doesn't do too well :(
my precious baby Rowan! oh, and Rose is there too
i can't believe I've had them for NINE YEARS, it seems like it was literally yesterday
Rose started out as 11 year old me's rotg self insert, and Rowan as her mirror twin... and now they're part of my main oc universe, Jeunesse Sauvage- high class mers from the Great lake. lots of lore, very fun :)
... So, uh, assuming that that place is a recycling plant that is aware of what your workplace is doing, that would actually be good. Not as good as if they actually used different bags for each type, nor as good as if types that don't need them used open packaging, simplifying by not having the either plastic or paper bags having to be removed, but still...
Now, if that place is just a dump, possibly with burner, or their not saying that they do this, that'd be the sort of issue that should be counted against them. It's hardly the only factor in being 'green', so they could've won on other basises, but it wouldn't really be expected.
is that garnets hair
Query: what if you're sitting such that there's multiple people to someone's left or right, or you're at one of those silly tables you can sit in the middle of, or someone just felt like sitting on the table today?
A game of tentacles and self-discovery, for 3–5 players
One unearthly night, a ray of colourless light descended from the stars, and under its warping radiance, creatures unlike any the world has ever seen were born. They do not know the world, and they do not know themselves. Unfortunately for the world, they’re quick learners!

The fact Hi-Fi Rush has this song already makes it GOTY
Based on my reading of various texts (most notably stat blocks of common in RL creatures), I’m pretty sure that while they CLAIM otherwise, this is actually how D&D sizes creatures.
"You should describe how big a character is in terms of height" "You should describe how big a character is in terms of weight" I am going to describe how big a character is in terms of what fluid volume they would occupy if rendered down into goo.
Alright, I 100% get the whole dualism thing, but what really gets me is that, at least Eclipse Phase 2, makes presumptions on how the mind and body works that simply aren’t always true. It presumes that knowledge is attached to memory, which is not true in our case, and that disassociated parts are either functionally identical, treated as wholly separate persons, or else caused by this alien disease. None of these are true in the case of many of our friends (we think).
The problem with most transhuman-themed tabletop RPGs is that their mechanics are stupid complicated, but not in a fun way. I love complex character creation as much as the next gearhead, but even among true crunch aficionados, very few people enjoy bringing the game to a crashing halt mid-session owing to the fact that swapping out what amounts to a piece of equipment means they need to redo all their charop from scratch. Making folks recalculate twenty different derived statistics on the fly because they decided to upload their brain into a squid is just punishing them for engaging with the thing that the game is about.
some lovely reminders <3
