Posted on March 12, 2023 by OAFE

I've got mates that are out there having babies and I just let out an audible "Yes!" when reading an email saying that the (word changed to say "toys") I've ordered will arrive on Monday. Adulting is class.

Behold: the Beholder

Posted on March 7, 2023 by OAFE

prokopetz says "I kind of love that D&D's most iconic monster is this giant floating ball of eyes and teeth from a realm of inchoate madness beyond time and space that brings low entire kingdoms with its merest gaze, but rather than being unfathomably alien in its mentality, it's just really racist.
