dang, must be like dodging land mines

As someone who casually enjoys 40K, it has a tendency to attract some of the most rancid people. OSR has this problem too sometimes, but its not nearly as bad as 40k. And the general RC hobby. Part of the reason i don't fly fpv drones as much as I'd like too, can't stand the chuds at the airfield I've never met a more unhappy group of people, and they don't even fly anything there either!

For me its less so about the world-building itself but the presentation. I like when a fiction setting feels otherworldly like it operates on its own internal logic that makes you feel like a stranger in a strange land. One of my favorite ttrpg settings is vaults of vaarn, an indie game very much inspired by Caves of Qud and while the lore is fairly sparse, what you do get paints a vivid but weird history of an far future post-human earth. I think its neat.

people like larger phones because they like social media. For people in developing countries a cell phone is their only personal computer so for them having larger screen more preferable. People just like larger phones. I loath them because I don't have pockets. I could probably live with a dumb phone, but mobile banking, and maps are too useful of a feature for me to live without out. tbh unless your a power user or gamer there really isn't much of a reason to upgrade your cellphone anyway

while not necessarily the prettiest console by any means but i always thought the Og xbox home menu went way harder than it needed to, now that's presentation!

all of the communities i follow are deathly silent, kinda hard to contribute when you have nothing worthwhile to post and nothing you can comment on

evil people have always been there, but we're in an era of many crisis's, it was easier to ignore it when it didn't personally effect you. Now i imagine in the next 10-20 years it'll start effecting everyone in ways we've yet to imagine. But I don't think its the end of the world or anything just that its probably time we start considering what we want our futures to look like and start making plans to survive or fight.

re-volt and quantum redshift

I've been on a nostalgia binge as a lately and decided to listen to a bunch of stuff from my childhood. The Killers, No Doubt, Modest Mouse ect. I used to be really into rock, as a kid.

thank you, I haven't thought about that, you may be right. I'll have to look into that

oh this isn't a photograph, but a scan instead, i tried taking a pic before but my photography skills are abysmal.

also, does anyone have any advice on scanning color pencil drawings, the colors never seem to match the original
