As far as rocks go, tuff is actually quite soft

It’s relatively easy to carve into, and for that reason has been used as a construction material throughout history

Many a safe dwelling has been made out of tuff, many a sturdy bridge, many a home

One could argue that, ironically, tuff isn’t tough at all—or perhaps we could define toughness as the ability to withstand transformation. The capacity to become a shelter

Anyway. “Tuff Guy” Etho sure is something, right?

Have you ever drawn and hidden little doodles of the DCA while at work?

Just scribbled one or two during a moment of free time and tucked them someplace?

There are now 19 of these silly things scattered around a 136 sq. ft (41.45 sq. m) space.

The thing I'm unsure about is whether I gather them up or leave them for future employees to find when the time comes for me to move on from this job.

WHO was going to tell me that the Ballad of Lucy Gray Baird is set to the tune of Streets of Laredo/The Unfortunate Rake??!?!!? And it’s WRITTEN LIKE THAT IN THE BOOK?!?!???!

Like the fact that it’s supposed to be her lamenting her own impending death?? And she chose the most famous folk song about someone lamenting their impending death??? Hello?!??

Always on Your Six - Chapter 1/7

Soap sat by himself at a two-top and shoveled food in his mouth, hurrying through his midday meal — as he always did these days — so he wouldn't have to see his former friends eating together without him for any longer than he had to. No matter what time he came to the mess, though, they always seemed to be there.

Four friends sitting in the only four seats at the table.

He used to be one of them, but not any more. Not for six months now. Not since Crow arrived.

The new sergeant had folded seamlessly into the 141, much the same way Roach had a year or so ago. Back then, it had been the four of them — Roach, Ghost, Gaz and Soap — but when Crow came, the dynamic shifted. Before Soap realized what was happening, they'd made a new group of four.

Without Soap.

I've seen some very odd takes about certain language used in the scene where Mizrak rebukes Olrox at the end of Castlevania: Nocturne, which I think might be due to lack of knowledge about the historical context of certain things.

CW: historical racism against First Nation groups

I know reading academic articles isn't for everyone, but I have to wonder if a lot of people in the Castlevania: Nocturne fandom have not watched things like, say, Disney's 1995 animated Pocahontas, which, for all its many, many flaws, features the song, Savages. I'm not going to quote it in full here, you can find the song lyrics elsewhere (though the European colonizers do use the lines "vermin" and "barely even human", among other epithets). It's not a great song for a lot of reasons (among them being it tries to "both sides" things). But to look at the scene in CN where Mizrak, a Christian working in a European Christian church with at least some Europeans, calls Olrox, a First Nation man, an animal without the understanding of how Christian European colonizers (typically as part of or at least backed by some Christian churches) have viewed First Nation peoples and treated them, and certain epithets used for them, and how European Christian dehumanization of "new world" groups and non-Christians generally worked/works?

Well.
