My favorite jokes are about mispronouncing philosophers' names but I'm afraid it's a nietzsche subgenre

A hug from Luffy would fix me

”You know what your problem is?” She said cool and casually, “ You talk too much.” And then she cuts out his tongue.

No to landlords. No to capitalism. No to extortion. No more silver tongue and cunning words. Marlath never stood a chance.

Good Will Hunting (1997) Dir. by Gus Van Sant

[madhbh]

Sometimes little pleasures in life are loadbearing. Whenever someone is like "If you'd just give up tea and coffee and sugar and--" im like I'll stop you right there. Because if you finish that sentence i am going to kill everyone in this building and then myself. If i have to face the horrors of the world without my little jar of caramel flavoured instant coffee i am going to go full American Psycho. Believe it or not, my main priority in life is not to have perfect teeth or be an Olympic athlete or look like a supermodel, but to actually enjoy living, because I spent far too long not doing that and it royally sucked. And boy, some people don't like hearing that. Particularly dentists

My favorite part of the Exandrian round table was Marisha’s “Robbie, please reassure chat that you’re not going anywhere” and over his lovely smarm in response, you could hear “we’re not letting you go” and “one of us” and then whenever he was talking about CR as a whole he would use “we” and “us” and even if he was just reading off the prompter, whoever wrote the base he was ad-libbing off of knew damn well who was going to be reading it

Do you think the Wildmother sent that root and the rats to Garen in the first episode as a way of expressing ‘yes…yes!!!! We’ve found you!’

Do you think she destroyed the Strife Emperor so thoroughly and violently because of the anger she felt that having two of her brothers inprisoned buy another?

Something neat I just realized.

Moradin is the only one of the Prime Deities to have no significant connexion to a player character before Divergence.

Avandra had FCG, Bahamut had Braius, Corellon was S.I.L.A.H.A. (and was indirectly connected to the Clay), Erathis made The Emissary, Ioun chose Scanlan as her chosen and was (sort of) followed by Beau and Sprigg, Kord saved Yasha, Melora had both Caduceus and Orym and became Asha during Downfall, Pelor chose Vex, was the (conflictual) god of Deana and was incarnated in Ayden, Sarenrae obviously had Pike, Sehanine was worshiped by Molly and the Raven Queen is probably the most important goddess in CR due in part to being Matt's favourite.

And even without counting connexion to the players characters, almost all of them appeared in person or had a significant role to play at one point or another through the three campaigns.

Except for Moradin.

The God of Creation, the proud father of dwarves is basically the only Prime Deities that never appeared a single time before the final of campaign 3

Of course the spot was kept untouched for Matt. Matt who many times expressed his love for dwarves. Matt who spent years carefully crafting this world out of love for his friends. Matt who was always cursed with terrible rolls for his PC but was seeminlgy blessed with great luck for Garen despite him literally being a lvl 0 character.

Brennan really made him the most perfect gift.

Edit: Also, how fucking neat that Garen hails from Uthtor, the ruins from which served as the foundation for Kraghammer, the very first city Vox Machina visited in episode 1 of the stream.

Making Garen, making MATT, the Allhammer...

Fuck. That got me. As a writer, that got me. Tears. The creator of Exandria in more ways than one. And having it be Liam who gave it to him, it might be parasocial of me but Liam. The man he made Exandria for as a birthday gift, on the tenth anniversary of sharing that gift with the world.

Stories abound indeed.
