looking for a softer spot to crash land

at first i was afraid i was petrified. after that i was still afraid and petrified. the fear and petrifaction continued on until the evening. and then i was sleepy. and i slept

i made an interactive version of tamsyn muir's old quiz for finding out which locked tomb house you belong to: https://housequiz.uwu.enterprises

some stats on the 488 times this quiz has been completed in the last 24 hours:

  • fascinatingly, the most popular item chosen in order to survive on a boat in the open ocean has been the pen and flimsy, with it being chosen 315 times (65%); followed by the empty bottle with a lid (58%) and the single sharp rapier (55%)
  • the least popular item is the waterproof portrait of the emperor: only 52 people (11%) picked it, followed closely by the cohort flag (53 people)
  • the Seventh House was achieved only 16 times, which is slightly less popular than a Fourth House-Sixth House tie (which happened 18 times)
  • almost 60% of quiz-takers are either in the Fourth House or the Sixth House, with 29% and 28% of the results, respectively (ties not being counted)

I mean, what else is there to say? Dimension 20 - On A Bus was one of the greatest first episodes of D20 to date. Incredible players, stellar setting, and AMAZING DM-ing by Katie! For a first time running a game, she absolutely NAILED it. I had my doubts, but if there's anyone who can fill Brennan's American Girl Shoes, it's her. @dropoutdottv @dimension20official @gamechangershow, if you need someone to do character art for the new season, I'm your man!

What We Haven't Read

by Joseph Mills

We play the party game, admitting what we haven’t read. Jane Eyre, Madame Bovary, anything of Faulkner’s. Amid mock gasps, we name titles with a mix of embarrassment, swagger, and relief that we can finally reveal how we never made it more than twenty pages into Portrait of a Lady, Middlemarch, Moby Dick. We don’t bother pretending we’ll get to them eventually. We’re confessing, but unrepentant, and then we begin to get serious: the newspaper, warning labels, the mortgage, legal contracts, every Christmas card from her for the last twenty years, the letter he sent before he died, the lab’s blood results last month and this month and the next.

Regarding Jason Mantzoukas on Taskmaster UK;

whether he's Like That normally, and;

his willingness to play silly games up to and including guessing improbable things for longer than anyone reasonably should--

Please enjoy him, Paul Scheer, and several callers spending over an hour of film time trying to guess what's in a dumpster.
