Re: Off-Topic: Gaming

Am curious if anyone's fallen down the Balatro rabbit hole, or plays the tabletop wargame BattleTech (whether Classic or Alpha Strike).

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

In the Loroi tradition, customizations to uniform or vehicles are considered to represent a sort of medal or citation, and so can only be done with permission. Since they are a symbol of prestige, such markings tend not to be comical or frivolous. Examples in the comic are the crescent moon insigni...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

Can Loroi catch a sunburn? If so, what color does their skin turn from it? Yes. In humans, burns and other rashes are reddish because the blood supply is increased near the surface of the skin, so it follows that sunburn in Loroi would be bluish. Same goes for any other similar phenomenon, such as ...

Re: The Stardrive

We all can afford it. Unless my insurance company stops being shitheels, I'll die before I see 40. (And, TBH, I hope I die before I get old.) Isn't every insurance company shitheels? Mood. The problem is that they won’t cover anything for weight loss, not even bariatric surgery (and to pay for the ...

Re: page 196: Crossfire

I bought a bunch of cheap chess pieces, and I'm going to print out a board and do some playtesting with family members. Later in the story, there is a Crossfire match using a fancy traditional set, with a hill-shaped board with pegholes, and stylized pieces in the ancient theme. I may end up buildi...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

This is news. So while sanzai is direct and truthful, a Loroi can choose whether to broadcast the message openly or keep it exclusive between herself and one other. Hence how two Loroi might be able to keep a secret. Two loroi can keep a secret if three of them are dead. :P Are you sure it's not th...
