Damn, I knew BJ was a leaking colostomy bag, but I didn’t know he was THIS much of one. https://t.co/jdRm8JUpx0 (And yeah, I haven’t really been paying attention. And yeah, Led by Donkeys is an anti-Boris/anti-Brexit activist group. Still, the allegations I did follow up on seem legit. Yeesh.)

This looks gorgeous! So exciting to see it laid out, and that art is beautiful too! t.co/T4ue9fRz9O

@KnightOwlPub That looks GORGEOUS! 😍 Excited to see the whole project!

Worthwhile thread on ableism and COVID “personal risk assessment”. twitter.com/LaurenRKayes/s…

@AurelienLaine But my expectations are based more on stuff like going to see the autumn leaves out in the countryside on a weekend and finding myself surrounded by a more dense concentration of people than you’d typically see in the city. Not my kind of thing!

@AurelienLaine I’ve never been to an actual campground here, though I had okay experiences just camping in random uninhabited spots decades ago, near a gravesite at 대아호. I assumed that experience was positive because we were isolated and no other campers were around, though. @AurelienLaine I did once rent a cabin in the woods and the forest area was lovely, but the cabin was insanely dusty inside—like, it’d never been cleaned—so it was hard to breathe and made everyone itchy. The unspoken rule was, “Bring your own bedding.” It being unspoken, we didn’t know…

@HalbertLin @AntonHur Not your last! 😉

A thread on the horrors of camping in Yeosu now.

Gotta confess, this is kind of how I imagined all organized campgrounds in S. Korea would be like, thanks to decades of experiences like this. It’s almost heartening that this isn’t the universal norm. But what a read! twitter.com/GeekinKorea/st…

@KnightOwlPub @giulio_pole I was about to say that, actually! Though at the same time, gold burger king crown and plate armor sounds like church subsidy, so maaaaaaybe?

@KnightOwlPub @giulio_pole Yeah, I was thinking Paladin for the first one, because of the skeletons and shiny, fancy, very clean armor. The second one I was like, “Did someone do a class for royal Fighters”? AD&D 2E was a weird time for game art. Some high points, some low points…

@iampaulkerry @GeekinKorea @daandydan Not really a worry for me, of course, but I would be shocked if it hasn’t happened at least a few times. It’s not like it’s a secret cops assume foreigners are into drugs, and that getting caught with them = deportation. Still, I only know of the one case. @iampaulkerry @GeekinKorea @daandydan (But I have seen similar attempts to weaponize the perceived inequality of law enforcement, so…)
