Zork remains one of my favorite game series of all time. Some parts still give me the heebie jeebies.
When Return to Zork came out in 1993, I became quite good at Double Fanucci and made a serious attempt to create a real-world version of the game, which I abandoned when I realized some of the rules and moves were actually impossible. With some tweaking it could probably still be done, but I’m a purist when it comes to Zork and also far less ambitious now.

Guys there is actually a german ripoff of Aladdin by this terrifying “animation company” (I use that term loosely) Dingo Pictures and I wanted to share Aladdin’s song b/c it is funky fresh
My new morning JAM.
LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THIS THOUGH
I needed a second to place it but when you saw the monkey and the vultures i realized: this is a series of movies/episodes. they also made lion king, aristocats and stuff. (most of them have the same looking vultures/monkeys/other animals). now you look at this and you may think “how would she know this,this i so bad, it surely never was on anywhere?”
WRONG.
This was the shit, let me tell you why. you know how little children hate shopping with a passion? Some shops choose to give parents some peace and put TVs in some corner, where the kids can sit while their parents are getting whatever they need to buy. so you need to imagine a tv,usually inside of some weird colourful construction formed like an animal, infront of it a tiny bench on a carpet.
infront of the tv: a small group of children,desperately fighting for a place on the uncomfy af bench, shushing each other constantly.
on the tv: one of these fucking movies, in an infinite loop,the same(usually) two about 20 minute clips.
why anybody would put this bs on for children? dont ask me but 5yo me sure af didnt complain.
also,funfact: aladdin is literally talking about how flying on a carpet is better for the environment than driving a car. im ancient egypt. a car.
It’s so dumb when someone is like ALL BABY BULLS ARE KILLED AS NEWBORNS!!!!!!!111 but when you’re like “actually none are they’re usually raised to adulthood” they go like “WHO CARES HOW OLD THEY ARE THEY STILL DIE”
You’re the one screaming about dead newborn calves Karen

vorkosigans, vorbarras, impsec et al: yes ma’am!
Anonymous asked:
when i younger i had a crush on a radio tower. like, a specific one. he was my tall red-eyed loverboy and every day on the way to and from school i would take comfort in the fact that my love was watching over me like a guardian angel. at one point he started appearing in my dreams as a many-voiced winged being of wires and dials. honestly i still think younger me had taste, but i know i'm mentally ill now so i can usually rationalize my way out of simping for a broadcast pylon.

why do I even buy cat toys
I have long believed (from personal experience) that a lot of cats are a lot more intelligent than they let on, in order not to be given work - sheep-cat, gun-cat, guard-cat, guide-cat etc.
I have also long believed (from personal experience) that cats can turn their intelligence on and off at will, so as to behave like little furry loonies when the mood moves them. This usually happens when no-one is around to see, and explains the thundering feet at 3 AM.
Sometimes, however, they get the timing or location wrong, as confirmed by the expression on the face of any cat who’s in the middle of doing something especially daft and suddenly realises they’ve got an audience.
A purple velvet chaise-longue isn’t essential, but failure to grasp the implications of gravity, low-friction surfaces and the unseen presence of water in a bathtub are all another matter entirely…
