  • Admiral Cloudberg did an amazing write-up of the Paradise fire. She usually duplicates her Reddit articles on Medium, but I don't think she did with this one 😔

  • Sam Kinison had this bit about world hunger being a problem because aid agencies kept bringing assistance to people that live in a desert. It's, of course an oversimplification and quite frankly inaccurate, but he was a comedian of his time and all of that.

    The point in mentioning it is that I feel the same way about people that lose their homes to floods in a flood plain, or to fire in a forest.

    "Oh. You want another house? In the same place? The place that has burned every ten years for the last TEN MILLENNIA!? Oh, and you want to build it out of matchstick wood AND PLASTIC! You see this? You see this here? It's stone! And this? Concrete! Yeah! A common building material THAT DOESN'T BURN!!!!! "

  • World building for the game I run.

    Instead of, you know, actually preparing enemy NPC stat blocks, or maps, or writing dialogue, or making sure combat will be balanced and not a TPK.

  • "There were a large number of ranks in the armies of the Empire and many of them were untranslatable. Three Pink Pig and Five White Fang were, loosely speaking, privates, and not just because they were pale, vulnerable and inclined to curl up and hide when danger threatened."
