Welcome to the Madness

Eviller DashCon with a skullpit.

yes i am an academic & hate academia

yes we exist 

no one likes academia, people just want to study moss or teach the youth about the history of illuminated manuscripts but the only way to get paid for it is to deal with a bunch of red tape and administrative paperwork bullshit. why do you think every professor is a lunatic

listen this isn’t rat related but I’m going off the walls right now this is literally so fucking funny

It took me 3 watches to realize the door is cardboard and this man is not just freakishly strong.

I assure you this is a standard interior door, usually only exterior doors are solid.

You can see the inside of the cardboard though.

This isn’t a real door, it’s a prop from a movie or TV set.

it has a paper honeycomb for rigidity, and that’s how interior doors are made for modern construction in the USA.

found my new favorite d&d character background

I don’t see a risk of failure or a limit of how many times you can use it per day.So you could potentially spend 12 hours convincing commoner after commoner to, participate in your nonviolent protest.

[ID: text reading:

Baldur’s Gate feature: Social Vengeance 

You’ve lived your entire life in the Lower or Outer City of Baldur’s Gate. You grew up seeing arrogant patriars flaunt their wealth while your hardworking neighbors struggled. As a result, you know how eager commoners in Baldur’s Gate are to see any patriar get what they deserve. While in a busy part of the Lower City or Outer City of Baldur’s Gate, you can spend 2d10 minutes to convince 1d6 commoners to perform a non-illegal act that inconveniences a member of the Watch or Flaming Fist, a patriar, or some other wealthy looking individual.’]

Which book is this from?

descent into avernus! there are a handful of baldur’s gate specific character options in an appendix ^^

I've never been so suspicious in my life.

The grocery store and I have no idea what is going on. Place looks like Bruce Banner couldn't find the one thing he came for.

It's gotten more threatening somehow.

you're in a counter strike map

ohhh my god i need enrichment soooo baddddd....... someone PLEASE throw something strange and new into my enclosure!!!!!

the kicker is he was being asked if his work was coming from the approach of man vs. nature aka “THE ENVIRONMENT STRIKES BACK” but no. his literal words were along the lines of “sharks are not very scary if you are never in the water so i had to make them scarier, and now they have legs.”

Junji Ito has the best fucking take on horror, which is ‘wouldn’t that be weird’ and then he draws it into the most terrifying thing possible.

every single one of his stories ends with “and then the thing mysteriously disappeared”. i think its fair to say hes putting a base amount of effort into the concept and maxing out on execution

Theres a novel by Poul Anderson called The High Crusade, which has an alien spacecraft land in rural England in 1345 during the Hundred Year’s War. The local baron has been raising an army to help King Edward against the French, and immediately assumes this must be some kind of enemy trick.

In a way, he’s correct: the aliens are scouts for a brutal and repressive interstellar empire, which has dominated numerous planets through their devastating technology.

Unfortunately, this reliance on advanced weapons means they’ve completely forgotten all forms of melee combat and Sir Roger of Tourneville leads his militia to defeat the aliens easily.

They spare a single enemy, forcing him to fly the ship at spearpoint. They intend to raid behind enemy lines, capture the king of France to end the war, and then go onward to reclaim the Holy Land using the same tactic.

In an attempt to outwit the knights, the alien pilot actually travels to the nearest Imperial planet, where he expects the occupying military forces to save him.

I won’t spoil the details, but the knights accept this as a challenge and declare the launch of the “high crusade”.

That last picture is so stupidly badass I might tattoo that next to my dick cause it ain’t getting any better after that

A bow and arrow IN SPACE?

look i don’t know how reliable a source of information this website is but the idea that you can easily get rid of vampires in your home just by telling them they’re not welcome anymore is extremely funny to me

if a vampire came into my house and tried to drain my blood. well i would simply say no thank you.

unless the vampire is hot of course, in which case feel free to make yourself at home

I remember asking about this question once and someone told me that in True Blood if you rescind an invitation the vampire is “forcibly removed” from your house (or words to that effect)

and I have to admit I expected something much more violent than this, but somehow that would’ve been less dramatic? like if he was flung backward through the door it would’ve looked pretty cool but the DRAMA here is 10 times as fucking ridiculous

Human: *rescinds their invitation* Vampire: I am forcibly removed from the house

my god maintaining eye contact while he’s just slowly dragged backwards is amazing i can’t even
