Octodad: dadlieist catch is funny the first time through. The savage planet games you might enjoy or might find grating.

I think we’re picturing a very different level of brightness achievable per plant. Replacing one street light would require a very large amount of glowing vegetation. Just the maintenance would be prohibitive. A city would need more gardeners than all other civil servants combined. And nevermind whether the fertilizer is produced from sewage or petrochemicals the runoff would be an enormous pollutant in its own right. Also it would be least effective in winter when the need for artificial light is greatest.

Imagine all the fertilizer and labor spent on the plants. I agree that more green space would benefit any city but I don’t think a monoculture of plants engineered for maximum bioluminescence would make a healthy base for it. Public lighting and public greening are two separate problems and trying to solve both at once means not doing as good a job at either.

Sounds like it might look cool but even if they were able to actually make enough light for a public space I doubt it would actually be more energy efficient to feed water and maintain extensive gardens down every street than to install some LED bulbs.

People are turned into nothics by the god Vecna when they discover secrets that mortals should not know (particularly RE the elder god Tharzidun) to keep the knowledge from spreading. If youre putting a bunch of nothics in one place you should establish how and why all these people gained forbidden knowledge and why turning the first few didn’t stop the others. You could maybe make special nothics who used to be specific characters before turning and have kept some of their old abilities. If Tharzidun is involved you have an easy explanation for the presence of any aberrations, especially beholders and beholderkin. Any one eyed aberration is probably related to Tharzidun somehow.

Those hotsprings monkeys in Japan seem like they’ve got a good thing going.

Neither you nor anyone else “does debate” ever. This isn’t high school. There are no rules of order and there aren’t going to be. Obnoxious pedants like yourself reframe arguments you get in as debates so that when you lose you can gesture at some moderator that isn’t there or rulebook only you respect to indicate that the time for argument has passed

I tell general Butler to accept Lincolns VP position. Then leave a time capsule in the future USSR to be opened in 1920 or so with instructions for building computers

You’re gonna die GI! It is always a good idea to flee a sinking ship!

Hope they spring for express shipping.

Whatever you were playing when you were 12.

I don’t plan to kill him but I have a frame already picked out for my fathers obituary.

Are these the toads where the males “court” the females by just grabbing on and riding piggyback until she gives up?

Changeling couple at the bar, not looking for a third but each one deciding what the other should look like that night. Is this anything?

They believe the bosses lies. Lies about the nature of profit for example.

It’s goddamn infuriating. “Your depressed? Think happy thoughts!” “Executive dysfunction? Just do the thing?!” Same bullshit, does nothing but reveal the speaker as a smug unempathetic shitheel and if you treat them accordingly that somehow proves you were “making it up”.

I absolutely have my phone in my dreams. It’s full of nonsense that changes everytime I look away, but I do have it.

This is the real reason centaurs are almost always drawn with bows and arrows. Not for horse archer vibes, so the artist had something to do with their hands.

Its an ability that punishes an enemy for being near its allies

I think its supposed to be one woman, the angel and devil on her shoulders, and then the cave woman represents amoral physical attraction.
