The way that the tools move with such certainty and without hesitation is the most amusing part of the gif to me. I suppose that applies to all surgery visualization gifs but the fact that there isn’t even a pause for precision when going in with the scissors gives an interesting narrative in my head of the surgeon’s process.

to protect my cishet status, i make sure to refer to nobody as their preferred name or pronouns.

Whenever I refer to someone, I use gagging noises in lieu of pronouns and the word “skibidi” for names.

Astro Knights hits a lot of what you want, and is a very solid game. It’s not grand sci-fi, but it is sci-fi. It’s a cooperative deckbuilding game about working together to defeat some giant enemy.

I think that both Astro Knights and Astro Knights: Eternity are good, but since you say you’re just getting into board games, go for the original, it’s definitely more accessible.

I also suggest Spirit Island, but it can definitely be hard to pick up. Quite complex, but definitely worth playing. If you want to, shoot me a DM and I can try and teach you it sometime?

Like, they are weird fucking losers. They’re dangerous fascists, but they’re also whiny, scared, irrational losers.

To me, the correct way to play Minecraft is with a friend and pursuing silly, enjoyable goals.

Something I had a lot of fun doing is playing as “The Heart Tree” while my partner tried to support me. Essentially, I chose a tree I really liked, cut it down except for its lowest block (now designated “The Heart Block”), and I always would have to be touching or very close to logs which descend from the original tree.

I also had fun playing Modded Skyblock with my friend from high school, focusing on guiding progression and decorating (since I knew how to progress a lot better than he did), but not making too much progress personally.

To me, I intrinsically feel a drive to constantly chase progression, but ultimately find myself more fulfilled when I try and lay back and weave progression with genuine attention and enjoying the “unproductive” things, looking to make nifty floor patterns and building materials and interacting with friends.

you look around. you’re in a public space in your village or hamlet or settlement or whatever.

there’s some other peasants, someone’s peeing in a ditch and someone’s swallowing an entire orange.

about 800 meters away there is a castle, though, you don’t see any obvious nobility just lounging about.

alright, you roll a 13.

you successfully manage to jog for 5 minutes, then release your bladder onto the castle walls. nobody’s really at this part of the castle walls.

your piss does smell bad, but you have also never showered in your life, so, to you it doesn’t smell like much of anything.
