I was reading on the Caves of Qud wiki and it really does not hit the same without the in game soundtrack playing.

A frequent feeling, that of struggling to grasp the gestalt of many lower-order things as a higher-order thing.

Elite Dangerous really is the best game at expressing awe of the cosmos along with its counterpart the futility of anything humans can do. You can really feel it if you've spent a while driving around a surface and then launch back to space.

Cool enough to cut at last

I have done the thing

When a game has paragraphs of stuff to relate to the player I vastly prefer actual paragraphs instead of slowly waiting for some lame NPC to meander their way through voiced exposition.

When the planes hit I was proselytizing in el rincon del diablo and downtown in Laredo. We rushed back to the apartment when my companion saw the smoking aftermath of the Pentagon on a shop window TV. He made calls looking for his dad, a DoD worker. Later, I saw tanks blocking all the bridges.

How do other disabled people endure the isolation, poverty, decay, and futility? Do they even endure it? My experience must be somehow different than those that do.

Maybe today will be the day that I go to bed and don't wake up

Finished with trying and hoping.

News from the dentist. I will never have the money and im also not allowed to have enough money to get my dental problems fixed. I guess I'll just die.

Got xrayed at the student dentist place there may be hope for me if not for my tooth

An overwhelming 92% of American have either delayed or totally abandoned medical care because of how expensive it is, according to a new survey.

Illustrating @rossignol.bsky.social's article about @cavesofqud.com for 7th issue of @wyrdscience.bsky.social is one of my favourite work from 2025. I am never tired of reposting stuff commissioned by Wyrd Science magazine.

The dental pain has become overwhelming and I don't know what I can do about it. I don't have any money.

I hope I can escape soon

Resenting how my strengths, such as they are, only seem to support my persistence. An empty, painful, hopeless shell of a human life laden with failure and decay. I want to give it up and disappear completely, unremembered, unremarked.

man i used to be good. I was an on site office/home pc tech before i became disabled, but just now my aunt calls with a basic wifi problem and i cant solve shit. it feels bad and i worry that my decreasing usefulness will drive further isolation :(

Skinned my knuckles and bled all over doing my apartment inspection cleanup, surely this will please the spirits and the inspection will pass with no issue.

Really fucks you up to get raised being told you'll be a god some day.

#noita why doesn't my wand do the damage it should, these add damage modifiers should be all applying to all of the digging bolts but the thing only hits for about 30

Struggling to like Mina the Hollower. It's well-crafted in all respects but a lot about the moment-to-moment play leaves me feeling flat. Especially the constant double dipping on incoming damage.

I did some FanArt of Terra Bradford! She's gotta be like my favorite FF character to paint lol!

I hate to ask, but Meso - you might know him as a Starsector modder/community member, and he's also a contributor to the game - is in debt after caring for his sick mother, and now in real trouble. Any help would be amazing. Thank you for reading this. www.gofundme.com/f/help-me-ca...

Very grateful to have a place to live at all, being disabled.

I'm so alone and poor that it hurts right now. Being disabled is really the worst.

a lotta motherfucking things delenda est right now, you know?

I'm in a little trouble. A new toothache is starting up, which is super hard to get treated because of being so poor and disabled. The clinic I used to go to isn't an option cause I don't have a car anymore so this is going to take something else to get solved.

How do you make anything if you feel like you have no story to tell?

I'm going to need help next month

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Of course it was just normal automated notifications and not something serious or fatal. Experience shows nothing but. I just wish it was more up to me whether to be laid low by routine paperwork. I suppose that's why its a disability.

To move among society as a living ghost, completely forgotten, unremarked, unmissed. There must be no freedom more true.
