  • I love the way this guy looks in that dress. Big bisexual swashbuckler energy. Doesn’t come across as “cross dressing” - which is fun too - but like a man in a man’s dress.

  • I think I’ve had two outbreaks before this third one. I can see why someone wouldn’t know. It just looks like a patch of ingrown hairs. Doesn’t really hurt or itch very much. I wrote it off until someone contacted me. (I’m in the States, I’m not going to the doctor unless I’m about to die - I do test for all of the other things regularly because that can be done OTC or free sometimes.)

  • Is it that this guy had a specific allergic reaction to moon dust, or is it that lunar regolith is sharp and probably not something anyone should be inhaling?

    The moon doesn’t have rain or wind to weather down its dust - it’s probably like inhaling shreds of fiberglass.

  • The episode where her and Mary Kate went on Oprah has been scrubbed off the internet as much as possible, but it was fucked.

    Both girls struggled with an eating disorder (let’s be real, any child/teen star does because they’re our societies sacrifice to Moloch) - and she asked them a bunch of pointed questions about diet and weight. Fucking ghoulish.

    Don’t forget there were “countdowns to 18” for both of them, just like there were for Emma Watson. Disgusting.

  • A Hobby Lobby canvas. Since Joann died and Micheals is far more expensive, I’m occasionally forced to resort to them. I make sure that a good portion of my art work is profane or has explicit political messaging to even out the karmic energy.

  • One could also copy Manzoni’s work.

    Shit seems like it would introduce the problems of bacteria and stink though. Boogers similarly I think are intended to trap bacteria and such. Others have worked with piss, which I think is usually sterile but I would be concerned about chemicals in the piss. I don’t think there is anything unhygienic about the menstrual blood that would cause issues.

    It might also be interesting to boil used condoms, cut them, and glue them to the surface as well.

  • The concern there might be that it would rot underneath that acrylic. I’ve seen videos of things like hotdogs encased in epoxy that eventually spring leaks.

    Maybe baking it would be a good idea. Something to sterilize, powder and mix into a binder.

  • It’s luck of the draw there. For me, it’s 100% off when I’m consistent - this is the first cycle I’ve had in like 5 years. But I’ve known people who kept having their cycle regardless. It’s very much an individual thing, but I think the typical experience is that it stops within six or so months. Check a resource like Hudson’s Guide too.

    If you engage in sex that can lead to babies, remember testosterone is not birth control on its own.

  • I guess of the infamously awful RPGs, it has the most fascinating mechanical mess.

    Something like RaHoWa would be pointless and just gross, Wraeththu is just homoerotic world building, HYBRID could be interesting but the mental illness angle is a little intimidating.

  • In addition, the professions. Things like bread making or soap making are prioritized in development. Trying to figure out how to implement each individual leveling system. I use integers, but some gain decimal points for certain actions. I created a looping system for tenth points, but then another class gained twentieth points. There was surely a better way to do this, but I am happy to let the code reflect its contents.

    There are so many small things in FATAL that mean no human could reasonably follow the rules with any form of fidelity.

  • I think the fact that it took that much time and effort just to complete character generation.

    Rolling a character by hand is an ordeal (which I have never even bothered with myself, just watched on YouTube). You can accidentally generate a character who is dead.

    You lack so much agency in character creation that it’s something that should be entirely done by a computer. You roll for your marriage status and number of siblings.

    I also plan this more as a way to develop my skills for the true project, which would be The Campaign. I need to experiment with ncurses UI design, because that would be a project worth honoring with aesthetic effort.

  • It is definitely a problem as difficult as the coding aspects. I am using the revised version, which they released after the criticism and has some more offensive elements toned down.

    In character creation, one can be “neuter” (to clarify, this is an innovation on my end, which I do attempt to minimize) which will remove any related mechanics entirely. No sexist modifiers. Other offensively named modifiers are simply implemented without name.

    However:

    There are things like needing spell components to be from women of various sexual experience, and many of the spells involve inducing some nauseating effects. Considering the way spell component and access to magic works though, magic can end up entirely unusable, requiring hyper specific components or having side effects (for example, accidentally casting the titular FATAL, which kills everyone and ends the game). This is why the corpse looting system is necessary for magic, and also a pain in the ass with arrays and such. The idea is that if one does go through all of that effort to cast the spell that facilitates necrophilia with another unpleasant name, the taciturn “You did the thing.” will be enough of a not reward.

    Combat is another area where it is unavoidable. The wrestling table has a dice roll that leads to a situation where a male character “may” assault a female character by succeeding on another role. The authorial intent would be likely for the majority of male NPCs to attempt this.

    The solution really is that my interest and thus game is focused on the strange professions and skills and errata. The disgusting will have to be offered as a possibility, but I think in a way where it could be excised entirely with an option in a settings menu.

    It’s not like it can even be a “fun” game. You can lose arbitrarily at any point due to no fault of your own.
