"I'm calling it the Combination Harvester," he said.
Bill Door felt very old. In fact he was very old. But he'd never felt it as much as this. Somewhere in the shadow of his soul he felt he knew, without the blacksmith explaining, what it was that the Combination Harvester was supposed to do.
OH.
"We're going to give it a trial run this afternoon up in old Peedbury's big field. It looks very promising, I must say. What you're looking at now, Mr. Door, is the future."
YES.
Bill Door ran a hand over the framework.
AND THE HARVEST ITSELF?
"Hmm? What about it?"
WHAT WILL IT THINK OF IT? WILL IT KNOW?
Simnel wrinkled his brow. "Know? Know? It won't know anything. Corn's corn."
AND SIXPENCE IS SIXPENCE?
"Exactly."
Terry Pratchett, Reaper Man

Max Verstappen is a better man than me because if I were him, every time someone asked me if I was worried about the championship I would just be like, “I’ve already got 3, and if I don’t get this one, you all won’t remember who won, you’ll remember that I lost” and just walk off
#because this whole season has just been formula 1 vs Max Verstappen and everyone knows it#man is driving a combine harvester he should not even be in the conversation#but he’s the only talking point#drivers still betting on him to win#teammate? who is that#competition? no drivers only rocketships#press conferences? he got his own#max verstappen

"[New Farming Sim] is copying Stardew Valley!!" Harvest Moon came out for the Nintendo 64 in 1999
Edit: My apologies, Harvest Moon came out for the SNES in 1996
#I love SDV so much and it def brought a lot of people to the genre#and made a LOT of innovations I deeply appreciate#but like#people will say games are copying it when the allegedly copied thing was in Harvest Moon DS#the worst was the person being like “they have you upgrade your tools like copper/bronze -> silver -> gold -> magic metal” like bestie#have you not like...played another video game? that's not even a farming sim thing#“It's raining on the 3rd day” yeah how dare the game teach you how weather works early on in the first season...#“it combines combat and farming” RUNE FACTORY HAS EXISTED FOR YEARS#“you have to take down an evil company” PLAY ANOTHER FARMING SIM PLS THIS IS NOT NEW

30 days of Harvest Moon Day 5 - vibrant / child
combined the prompts! rock’s limited edition crossover Skecher x Pleaser Discolite platforms have been repurposed as a nightlight for his son (they do nothing to get him to sleep)
thank you @psychosvr for the Cool Prompts
(based on this meme)

The harvest continues-
“Make hay while the sun shines” is the old saying but in this case it’s dry beans.
We have rain coming in a day or two so I imagine they are getting a little done before that.
Happy Friday friends 😃

Interesting, uh, "corrupted grain processing" motif in Jorthur being transported to an abandoned windmill with a hag basement immediately after spending the previous season finale in an abandoned grain terminal with a cult basement
#they even point out the unprocessed wheat and the machinery. I can't tell if it's intentional#I'd expect this author to make the connection explicitly if so#personally I think he should go further. let's go discover the dark heart of staple crops. get chased by an evil combine harvester. etc#Kumari comments#Malevolent#Malevolent podcast#the two genders: hag and cult

rip gawyn, you would have thrived in the 2020s Sad Wet Pathetic Loserboy popularity era
#he was crafted in a lab to cater to that exact archetype#but he was too ahead of his time and the 2000s didn't appreciate him#this archetype combined with the homoerotic obsession with rand - i genuinely think gawyn would've been better received (by some anyway)#if WOT was first coming out now instead of 20 years ago#and this is why s3 will bring about the Gawyn Renaissance i'm planting that seed and i will see the harvest#gawyn trakand#wot#wot book spoilers#gawynposting

When someone uses she/her for me, they should know that I interpret it the same as how a forklift or a monster truck is a she/her to some guys. I don't actively use she/her but if you've just gotta call me that because anything else is "too hard" then I'm entitled to take it whatever way I want. I control the vehicle for your bullshit. And that vehicle is either going to be a forklift or a monster truck.
