[Warlock is consentually possessed by the Ghost of a Paladin who needs to make the "final blow" against a Beholder to be free of his curse. The Beholder is already wounded from Wizard's spells and the party's Paladin's smite. ]

Warlock: Well [Ghost Paladin] I know this isn't your usual fighting style and I kinda wanted to let you borrow my Shadow Blade for this but I hope you don't mind terribly if we just finish this quickly especially for the sake of Monk [frightened] and the Githzerai [several near misses with the disintegration ray]. Since you're possessing me even if I call down the power of my patron upon it this will still count as the "Final Blow," right?

Ghost Paladin: Yes.

Warlock: [*summons Bigby's Hand Tentacles and the Fathomless Tentacles and unleashes them all on the Beholder to devastating effect.*]

Warlock: Are you still doing okay, [Ghost Paladin]? Wanna do the honors of crushing this asshole?

Ghost Paladin [cheerfully]: Oh verily!

[*The Beholder dies Screaming*]

Ghost Paladin: Ah, peace at last.... *Fades away. *

DM: Warlock is no longer possessed.

Warlock: Awwww... he seemed nice, I think I'll miss him.

I think it would be nice if all of the different currencies could be converted to each other.

For example: 10 coins (the currency you earn simply through gameplay) buys me 1 gem (the more valuable, harder to obtain currency) and 10 gems buys me 1 gold bar (even more valuable, harder to obtain currency). this would also work backwards, one gem/gold bar would be worth a large amount of coins.

sure you could still buy gems and gold bars with actual real world money like most games work now, but you could also use your hard earned coins to buy them too.

I just think a game like that would make me happy

Words of wisdom… pt. 2

After convincing the rogue to leave two piles of cursed gold alone: 

Aasimar Paladin: “there will be people inside, with non-cursed gold on their bodies after we kill them.” 

Rogue: “promise?” 

Druid: “yeah, we’ll even let you have first pick.” 

Rogue: “right, let’s go get some gol- I mean, stop these bad guys…”

Crab Day

okay, so here's a new info post from the top.

the problem: tumblr is extremely extremely in debt. the current model is not profitable. this is why they are trying to turn the site into a shit clone of every other social media site, so they can attract new users and their money.

solution: not a ton of people can afford a long-term subscriptions like ad-free. however, many of us CAN afford $3 to inflict crabs on another unsuspecting user. (and those that can't, can still enjoy crabs everywhere)

the idea: in the grand traditions of mishapocalypses and goncharovs and tumblr users' obsession with [random inconsequential thing] Days, we create a fund drive/holiday on July 29th, dubbed Crab Day. buy your friends crabs. buy your enemies crabs. blaze posts. post memes. change ur icon. whatever. actually put your money where your mouth is and show @staff that there actually IS profit motive to listen to the current users about what we want this site to look like. (and yes, that means accessibility features too. we currently have zero leverage to demand these features. let's change that.)

i don't know if this will actually go anywhere. worst case scenario, a few of us have fun, tumblr gets a small amount of money, and nothing changes. best case though, we actually provide incentive to keep our stupid hellsite unique.

What is Dataflow?

This post is inspired by another post about the Crowd Strike IT disaster and a bunch of people being interested in what I mean by Dataflow. Dataflow is my absolute jam and I'm happy to answer as many questions as you like on it. I even put referential pictures in like I'm writing an article, what fun!

I'll probably split this into multiple parts because it'll be a huge post otherwise but here we go!

A Brief History

Our world is dependent on the flow of data. It exists in almost every aspect of our lives and has done so arguably for hundreds if not thousands of years.

At the end of the day, the flow of data is the flow of knowledge and information. Normally most of us refer to data in the context of computing technology (our phones, PCs, tablets etc) but, if we want to get historical about it, the invention of writing and the invention of the Printing Press were great leaps forward in how we increased the flow of information.

Modern Day IT exists for one reason - To support the flow of data.

Whether it's buying something at a shop, sitting staring at an excel sheet at work, or watching Netflix - All of the technology you interact with is to support the flow of data.

Understanding and managing the flow of data is as important to getting us to where we are right now as when we first learned to control and manage water to provide irrigation for early farming and settlement.

Engineering Rigor

When the majority of us turn on the tap to have a drink or take a shower, we expect water to come out. We trust that the water is clean, and we trust that our homes can receive a steady supply of water.

Most of us trust our central heating (insert boiler joke here) and the plugs/sockets in our homes to provide gas and electricity. The reason we trust all of these flows is because there's been rigorous engineering standards built up over decades and centuries.

For example, Scottish Water will understand every component part that makes up their water pipelines. Those pipes, valves, fitting etc will comply with a national, or in some cases international, standard. These companies have diagrams that clearly map all of this out, mostly because they have to legally but also because it also vital for disaster recovery and other compliance issues.

Modern IT

And this is where modern day IT has problems. I'm not saying that modern day tech is a pile of shit. We all have great phones, our PCs can play good games, but it's one thing to craft well-designed products and another thing entirely to think about they all work together.

Because that is what's happened over the past few decades of IT. Organisations have piled on the latest plug-and-play technology (Software or Hardware) and they've built up complex legacy systems that no one really knows how they all work together. They've lost track of how data flows across their organisation which makes the work of cybersecurity, disaster recovery, compliance and general business transformation teams a nightmare.

Some of these systems are entirely dependent on other systems to operate. But that dependency isn't documented. The vast majority of digital transformation projects fail because they get halfway through and realise they hadn't factored in a system that they thought was nothing but was vital to the organisation running.

And this isn't just for-profit organisations, this is the health services, this is national infrastructure, it's everyone.

There's not yet a single standard that says "This is how organisations should control, manage and govern their flows of data."

Why is that relevant to the companies that were affected by Crowd Strike? Would it have stopped it?

Maybe, maybe not. But considering the global impact, it doesn't look like many organisations were prepared for the possibility of a huge chunk of their IT infrastructure going down.

Understanding dataflows help with the preparation for events like this, so organisations can move to mitigate them, and also the recovery side when they do happen. Organisations need to understand which systems are a priority to get back operational and which can be left.

The problem I'm seeing from a lot of organisations at the moment is that they don't know which systems to recover first, and are losing money and reputation while they fight to get things back online. A lot of them are just winging it.

Conclusion of Part 1

Next time I can totally go into diagramming if any of you are interested in that.

How can any organisation actually map their dataflow and what things need to be considered to do so. It'll come across like common sense, but that's why an actual standard is so desperately needed!

Real Catholics/Christians should strive to be nudists. No I will not be elaborating.

[chewingbatmanlikeasqueakytoy]

Fun fact! In the UK (and I'm assuming in America as well) if you invent something on company time and with company resources (especially if you figure it out as a normal part of your job, eg technician) the company owns what you make! (Sarcastic enthusiasm)

Considering Mr freezes backstory in BTAS I've always just assumed that's why he doesn't make any money out of his crazy tech - he was the inventor, but the company owns the patent for his work (in spite of the fact that he was working in secret from what I remember)

I think it makes sense that his tendancy towards domestic terrorism is at least in part fueled by a desire to make sure the tech is heavily associated with danger and easy weaponisation, though that's also continuity dependant considering Nora is alive and needs care in some versions but is already dead in others

Danny and the Riddler getting on like a house on fire because Danny is used to helping ghosts with their obsession and the Riddler gets enrichment time

Like, Danny answers riddles but he makes a show out of thinking about them out loud and taking his time and appreciating the riddle

Which is very different from the people either doing it out of fear, being done with him or super quickly

[lycanr0t]

do ppl just forget that disney literally funds anti gay movements the moment they have a single gay character or

like giving them money still isnt good. dont give money to the huge homophobic company that literally! funds! homophobic! laws!!!

lets care more about real peoples lives and rights then a single gay character from a company that wants us dead oh my god

if i see one more post attributing kira's powers to ~supernatural powers~ instead of the obvious fact that the cia is doing a coup I'm going to start giving You the heart attacks

💅 toxicbff

of course i saw the news how does that not prove my point further

the idea that all the police around the world could be mobilized by one single person is ridiculous (just look at this list of how many civilian militia there are globally)

heart attack victims don't seize the way "lind l tailor" did

i don't know how to tell you that You Can't Kill People Just By Knowing Their Name And Face because this is Real Life and not the newest grimdark marvel villain

people need to stop being scared of the ~bogeyman in the closet~ and wake up to the fact that usamerica is trying to take over the goddamned world

im going to kill you all and nuke this website

if i get a single more comment about why i don't tag "genderbend" on my kiratective fics i'm going to blow up the entire building. we don't know EITHER of their genders. why don't YOU tag your mediocre yaoi genderbend instead

🔆 sparkling-world Follow

…OP, you realize the news reports all consistently use "he," right?

🏎 fastandyurious

of course i do???? just because you see something on the news doesn't mean you have to believe it?????? they don't have any information on kira yet but i'm supposed to believe the fbi knows their gender already??????? also kira is literally a fucking girl's name my classmate in elementary school was called kira

🔆 sparkling-world

Kira comes from the Japanese romanization for "killer," it isn't gendered whatsoever.

Also, evidence shows the majority of serial killers are male, so I'd argue that the statistics favor the fujoshis here.

🏎 fastandyurious

well evidence shows that female serial killers are just more fun to write about and I'd argue that you're ignoring my fucking POINT which is that we DON'T KNOW KIRA'S GENDER and if people don't want to read lesbian kiratective they can FUCK OFF MY BLOG

Imagine you're going home after a long day. Suddenly there's a sound. "Huh? Whose there" you ask, dropping your keys on the floor. Then you feel it. A knife pressing in your neck.

"Don't move kitten" Kira purrs behind you. "You're all mine now…"
