I know that Caleb and Essek were both playing the long game and trying to manipulate each other prior to the cease fire, but it’s still very funny that these two highly intelligent wizards went ‘Ah, yes I will beguile him with my many spells and knowledge of the arcane to trick him into thinking he can trust me.’
And both of them fucking idiots that they are fell for it.
And then doubled down and said ‘But what if you could actually trust me? What if I used my spells to actually flirt with you? What if I stopped in the middle of a battle to pull you from underneath some rubble and you pressed your forehead to mine? What if we called each other partners for the next seven years and had an engagement portrait painted and hung in our home?’
Like I don’t know if you failed at the first step or succeeded.
so perfectly cyberpunk for cyberpunk 2077 not to have a ‘happy’ ending but doesn’t make it it hurt any fucking less
lowkey funniest part of mandalorian is that if the reason yoda talks the way he does is true, it follows that centuries from now there’s gonna be a wise old Force master talking like a back-alley merc
Rogue: That spell that [NPC Sorcerer] is about to cast on me requires concentration, right?
GM: It does.
Rogue: I take off my shirt.
I think there's something to be said that saying the words "Deny, Defend, Depose, you're next" to an insurance sales rep can get you arrested for 'threats of mass homicide' or whatever with a threat of 15 years in prison
But when I was a manager in a fast food restaurant I've had customers throw food at me, demand for my personal phone number with an added threat of "Well I'll just have to FIND it", customers charging past the front counter to physically intimidate me and my coworkers, screaming and swearing, demands to know what time I get out of work, demands to know when my manager would be at work as a threat, people sitting in their car waiting for me to finish closing because they were angry at me, causing me to stay in the office watching the camera waiting for them to drive away...
But none of those incidents are arrest-able offenses, not one, any time I called the cops on any customer I would just hear excuses like " "there isn't anything illegal about calling a restaurant", that nothing physical happened and therefore there's nothing they could do, to call back and let them know if anything else happens
Idk, just think it's A TEENY TINY BIT ODD
Cop in the news goes "words have consequences" as if people don't berate and threaten fast food and retail workers every day
good > finally building the habit of checking my trouser pockets for tissues and stuff before putting them in the washing machine
bad > being unable to do so without saying "what's it got in its nasty little pocketses" in a gollum voice
only thing that comes to mind today.

been mainlining mythbusters episodes while i work on art stuff and this bit where they attempt to test sneakily entering a building through the air ducts caught me deliriously off guard
