  • To be clear lovecraft is also very good at suspense in a new way (edit: new at the time) You know the monster is a monster but the character hasn’t figured it out yet. So you’re waiting and for them to figure it out.

    Chef kiss. Brilliant. However that’s also an idea. The actual writing is like a hyper-hyphenated pit of radioactive snakes who have daddy issues with the snake god yig who wants to protect snakes but also uses snakes as punishment in situations where they snakes will absolutely die but shows a dramatic point about protecting snakes I guess kinda.

    That’s lovecraft.

    I’m his biggest fan. I spent $1000 to have a custome mistkatonic university ring made. Love his work. Not a great writer and also racist in the phobia sense not the “I’m better” sense. He legitimately fears Irish people and their witchcraft.

    Dude had flaws and I akeowledge that.

  • Holy shit it had 4 reboots!

    Yeah just get Mario teaches typing. They got it pretty figured out.

    I don’t know how well it teaches but I can say I’m 36 and still remember that game… that says a lot.

    Mario teaches typing. Boom you’re done. Problem solved.

  • Mario teaches typing. I’ll never forget using that in tech class.

    The tech teacher was awesome. Anytime I’d complain he’d say he fucked my mom. Which is valid because he was my dad. Couldn’t argue with that.

    Mario teaches typing.

    It’s probably cheap considering it’s 30 or so years old but the keys didn’t change so it’ll still work.

  • I’ve read all his work. Including old bugs.

    Reading his work is a task. Brilliant idea guy but “ the portrait which stared back at him like a year-adding and century-recalling mirror.” Yeah we all have one of those year adding century recalling mirrors laying around to compare this idea to.

    Thanks for explaining the complex concept of “painting looks kinda like that dude” into something I (a lay person) can understand.

    He’s describing it’s like looking into one those bazar and specific magic mirrors we all have. So we can follow the story now that we understand the difficult concept of painting looking like a dude. Thanks lovecraft!

    I love lovecraft. He’s not a great writer.

  • Mario teaches typing already nailed it. We don’t need any more typing games. It’s already been perfected.

  • I should also say I grew up in a very progressive household. Both parents were amazing teachers.

    So credit where it’s due.

    Yes I was asexual and neurodivergent with my adhd. I had amazing parents which is why I’m so bold with my “fuck that I’ll fight you!” Griffendor mentality. I’ll shove my adhd right down someone’s throat and be disgusted at their bodily fluids the whole time! Tell me I won’t! GRIFENDOR!

  • We are actually good friends. We hate each other but we got a kid. When I was having a mental health crisis i called her. We she had one she called me.

    I’m currently angry at her but she’s not a demon. I’m just venting. She’s a wonderful mother and a crappy wife. I’m also a crappy husband.

    Child support is always on time and we’ve never needed to go to court about anything. We just handled it her and I.

    I’m dunking on a good friend who temporarily has me annoyed.

    On to the wizarding world.

    I’m asexual (probably why marriage was hard for me lol) and have adhd so severe I was in training videos.

    I was also right in the age range when the books came out. I loved them.

    You still pick griffendor. Obviously! They are everything slytherin has but by choice and they are nice about it!

    Griffendor is essentially “I’m a slytherin but I want more. Life should matter. I should fight”

    Did other people not get the same message from the books?

  • You make a good point about her writing. My favorite author is hp lovecraft.

    Lovecraft is a terrible writer. He had good ideas for stories but the writing itself was just flat out bad.

    I love the Harry Potter books. Jkr is also kind of a garbage writer. Sorry, it’s just the way it is lol.

    The story is good tho.

    As for the cunning part I think maybe she was trying to imply that… but even the founders of the houses it’s like “hufflepuff was a powerful witch and Salazar slytherin was a dick and nobody really like him”

    There isn’t much subtly in it. He was just an asshole who was there.

  • My ex wife has a slytherin tattoo.

    They don’t even have a real story arch in the books. Slytherin house is only “we are bad”. Grifendore is literally “everything slytherin has but we aren’t dicks about it”

    My exwife is a fan of the concept of being a shitty person. Thats the side she chooses.

    Not brave, not humble, she saw “bad guy” and picked her house.

    That’s like your favorite food being listeria and your favorite color being tears.

  • Is the world actually worse than it was 25 years ago, or does it just feel that way because I'm now more aware of how dysfunctional and cruel everything seems?

  • I’ve (36m) asked my mother and grandfather if I’m overreacting.

    My grandfather (104 when he died. He was so “dust bowl” he mother died of the dust in the dust bowl. Dust pneumonia. Yeah can’t get more depression era than that without also being a shoe shine boy at a carnival ): I killed the nazis once. I can kill them again

    My mother (80f I asked here again just now. Right now face to face): I’ve never seen this cult behavior before. Never in my life. People will bury their trump flags in the ground and deny they ever supported him. Like the nazis did.

    Yes this bad. It’s historically significant how bad it is. People will read about this moment in history and think “I hope my grandfather wasn’t a trumpet” as the look up their ancestors. Grandfathers will lie to their families about what they were doing right now. They will even shame me because all I did was comment online.

    It’s specifically bad right now.
