My new citadel is in many ways paradoxical. It does not show up on any known mapping program, yet packages still make their way here. It is not in Lynchburg, but it is said to be so. Sometimes the GPS on my phone tells me I am in Lynchburg. Sometimes, Rustburg. Note that both these [...]
Deus Ex: Human Revolution, a Quasi-Review
Note: some spoilitos for all three Deus Ex games lie within. You have been warned. When Deus Ex was released I was thirteen years old. Now, maybe that’s not an appropriate age to play Deus Ex, some may think. I don’t know many early-teens who could appreciate the freedom and breadth of storytelling that game [...]
Good Friends (maringally NSFW)
A good friend will indulge your oddities. A great friend will give you new oddities. Thanks, Kara. To see what fresh madness I have been gifted, hit the jump.
On Seriousness
Since I returned there haven’t really been many dick jokes. I feel I should remedy this. A while ago, during my absence, I was cleaning up the kitchen in my former apartment, when I discovered a little bamboo skewer, charred at one end. I had used it the night before to light candles when the [...]
The Epic Legends: The Beautiful Game – Part Two
The next cycle saw great changes in the guild, the ancient ancestral ties to 1up and the Legendary Thread podcast were severed, I became pretty well liked. I didn’t beg for officer status, well, not much. Eventually I even got it, though the person who promoted me was drunk beyond reckoning at the time. Drunk [...]
The Epic Legends: The Beautiful Game – Part One
World of Warcraft. I can say with certainty that nothing in the whole of media has affected my life as dramatically, as permanently, and as positively as World of Warcraft. A game known for destroying lives. For turning intelligent, erudite individuals into annoying fuckwits who obsess over what numbers will interact in the best way [...]
The Insanisphere
In the suburbs of Washington, D.C. no one is actually from the suburbs. This is something natives all know to be true, and in the internet age is even more true. No one wants to say they are from “Fairfax, Virginia” or “Silver Spring, Maryland”. As Lewis Black pointed out, it makes you sound like [...]
The Epic Legends: The Great Trial of the Sword Kings
I know I have only posted one epic legend before, but lo, another has happened during my long absence. A force that will no doubt shape many things to come. Read on, dear friends, and learn of the Great Trial. Over the past two years I became a proper adult human. I know, you’re thinking [...]
Finding My Mind
I’ve recently realized that I have a blog with some pretty good shit on it that I have systematically neglected for far too long. Yes, the Lost Posts from when I had private hosting are forever gone, and they do fill a page or so, but it shames me to both want to say so [...]
