Hey, I remember this! Shame it never seemed to go anywhere. Though then again, the wiki's still up? :/

Here's another interesting book review. It's about the promise, and failure, of the Soviet Union in the 50's. :/

Hey, so I think I managed to optimize Agora so it should run pretty okay now. Low power computers will likely still have some trouble, but the rest should handle it okay. And it runs a LOT better in chrome or chomium then it does in firefox. Take a look and tell me how it works for you? XD

The opening to one of my favorite movies:

I made delicious curry! Unfortunately, now my apartment smells like delicious curry and it's making it hard to sleep... XD

So, hypothetically speaking, is there any rule that says you can't run for the nomination of both political parties at once? Just, y'know, hypothetically speaking. :V

"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

...Huh. Now I want to make a game about leading a revolution, either through violence or through electoral politics, complete with a detailed recreation of all the trouble that can come with either. Factional internal politics, external pressures, secret police being deployed against you, the works. Be a help of an effort though, and not something all that many would necessarily have an interest in. :/

Well, I'm being lazy, so I'm probably not gonna copy the whole thing here, but I posted about it on a forum, if you want to binge the archives. XD

I want this thing, but interactive. So I can control the speed, zoom in, have events show up on the map, maybe even have people show up on the map.. Be amazing. Not that it isn;t cool as it is, but I'm greedy, so. XD

So how violent have societies been throughout history, generally? Say you have an area with constant low level wars and violence, like that setting I talked about earlier with the artificers and the city-states constantly going to war with each other over them. Is that a realistic level of violence? :/

Hey yall, do you think I ask too many questions? It seems a large portion of my posts are me crowdsourcing answers to some question or another. Maybe I should try and post more content, instead? :/

...Huh. Does anyone know of any galleries showing the progressions of famous artists, going all the way from when they first started and were really bad, all the way to the masterpieces that made them famous? That would be amazing to see. XD

Hmm. I'm thinking of a combat system for a roguelike. It would be fairly fancy - you bave targeted hit locations, and active defenses, and stuff like that. Depending on your skills, you get a random assortment of possible attacks you can make against someone. Some attacks will target hit locations, or have bonuses/penalties to hit, or to damage, or to your opponents chance to defend, or to your next chance to defend, or give you free movement, or whatever. I'm not actually sure how that would work with multiple enemies, though. Honestly, the idea might work better for a text adventure game than for a roguelikes? :/

Anyone else here read Ow My Sanity? It's on hiatus right now, but it's really good. The author's got lots of other cool stuff on their deviantart too, y'all should check it out. :P

Anyone else noticed that a lot of politics comes down to "I'm against this because you're for it"? :/

Huh. I should go and post my story idea about the sudden reveal of magic on earth and how this would affect society here. I think y'all would like it. XD

Saw the new Black Panther movie. Pretty great. XD
