Baki's an absurdist masterpiece and Camus would've loved it.

i think the best case of that “baki is like what if we had to reinvent masculinity” post is during a fight where baki starts sweating a lot and then starts crying and then pisses himself and then this piss+tears+sweat mixture is being splashed all over the audience including baki’s girlfriend and the narrator treats the situation as if it’s the single most noble act to piss yourself due to the excitement of combat and then also to be willing to be splashed with piss because you respect the fight so much

Love the notion of a Wild West Frontiers based Oz. Glinda, Elphaba and Brrr's adventures beyond the Not-so-impassable Desert

a sequel maybe?

Shout out to being told that I laugh loud enough in my sleep that people can hear me in the next room.

I also lie in my sleep because I once also snored so loudly that I woke myself up and groggily said “next door’s drilling loud”

You could set an amazing drama series or a battle anime or something in this setting, this is absolutely wild

remembering that time i met someone who attended high school in west bend, wisconsin and they told me how their school district works. to them it was completely normal while i was wondering if they were messing with me.

their schools are conjoined twins???

I think I might be craving this game. I need MOUNTAIN in my life. The twin thrills of geocaching and TCG obsession combined into an unstoppable chimeric force.

had a fascinating dream last night where there was a new, virally popular trading card game - it was called MOUNTAIN (stylised in all caps) and the whole gimmick was that you couldn’t buy boosters or anything - you had to find them?

nowhere sold MOUNTAIN - I mean, I expect players did, once cards were in their hands.

but acquiring cards meant noticing a box lying around, and just….nabbing it? they’d be in weird places - in a skip, wedged high up in a fence, nestled in the branches of a tree? nobody ever saw who left them there, and there was a lot of debate about how MOUNTAIN boxes were sometimes hard to acquire without risking one’s physical safety - but then, that was also bragging rights. especially as harder-to-reach boxes seemed to contain more elusive and sought after cards…

no, I don’t remember anything about the actual gameplay, we never played any MOUNTAIN. alas. I know there were “frame cards” that were literally transparent but for a fancy metallic or holographic border, which I guess upgraded the card they were applied to? frames were super rare, my coworker literally ran up to me in the pub purely to show off the frame he’d just found

dream brain gimme the deets on MOUNTAIN’s actual mechanics, I’m invested in this controversial unpurchasable scavenger hunt game

That meme about Balatro fan-art being incredibly, wonderfully ornate relative to the style of the game is so true.

Everyone shits on elf metal. Just because dwarf metal (GRANITE FORGE, UNDERBEARD) and orc metal (URROSH GROGAG, TUSK) are widely renowned and pioneers of the genre and style as a whole doesnt mean we all need to collectively bash LAST KING ELIANDOR'S DIRGE FOR THE FALLEN LEAVES PARTS IX-XXII
