My friend sometimes brings her six-year-old to our DnD sessions and my husband (the DM) lets her roll for all enemy attacks and sometimes he will show her a few figures and let her secretly pick what creature we meet next. Who needs encounter tables when you have a first-grader around

She cheers when the monster is winning.

Do you know anything about Nottingham? I was told once that it was made up for Robin Hood, which I was confused about, since I live there, but was that person actually telling the truth?

I was gonna make up a joke about it being originally called Snottingham and looked up its history and what the fuck, history. It was originally called Snottingham, named for a man called Snot.

It's important to drink a lot of fluids when you're sick so that your body has the raw materials to generate gallons of snot.

I learned recently that mucus basically traps the viruses and expels them from your body which is why your body makes SO MUCH of it so now I just imagine drinking liquids as hiring a bunch of goons to take out the thrash y'see nyeehh see we taking back the streets from the bowler hat boys flush em out real good

Perhaps there are many problems which could be solved if you just made enough mucus

Reblog if you are solving problems by generating enough mucus

sorry i have to say it. my mass effect experience was uplifted and enlightened when i played legendary and decided to kill kaidan on virmire instead of ashley. the sisterly soldier bitching between ash and femshep was way more interesting than anything kaidan ever said

a bestie breakup & reconciliation between two female space marines is something that can be so personal,

Fallen down the Mass Effect relay.

Hi guys, it's been such a looooooong time since I came here. Life happened and everything (mostly good things tho <3).

I started playing Mass Effect a month ago and I can't believe that game has been existing since 2007 and I had NO idea what it was.

The plot, the fabulous characters and their story arcs over 3 games, SPACE on a massive scale, the RPG elements, the voice acting by so many great people! (Martin Sheen, Claudia Black, Carrie-Anne Moss, Yvonne Strahovsky, Tricia Helfer (the fact that they got her to play an AI is hilarious), Seth Green!)

It ticks all the boxes for me. I'm playing original Femshep (DUH) who's been in a faithful relationship with Dr Liara T'soni since the first game (I mean she's a smartass scientist, she's lethal in a fight and, given my long, well documented, fandom history *waves at Dr. Scully* why would my Shep go for anyone else? Also, she's BLUE, like, all over *sigh*.

Yes, it has flaws. The "crazy eyes" of the first game, Samara's outfit (don't even get me started about Cleavage in Space (TM). All the little annoying things that shout: "Made by White Dudes". But hey, they tried, and they got many things right. (and I'll admit, the Uranus thing was juvenile but it still cracked me up)

I just started playing the third game and, oh boy, it's one hell of a ride!

Please rec fanart, well written fanfic and peeps to follow.

I should go.
