    i’m still so mad about that story line. 3 films worth of plot and it feels like George forgor that Anakin has to become Darth Vader at the end. So he fast forwarded a whole corruption arc, which then made Anakin look like a moron who got swayed to the dark side and abandoned his moral compass & all his friends in the span of days because some clearly dodgy guy told him “you see the Jedi council Anakin? they’re hiding something, clearly the most optimal path forward is to become evil, go kill some children”






  • common-ish experience for LSD but when i went through ego death, and i have fallen through the darkness and dissolved into the infinite plane of colours below it - i profoundly understood and felt how there’s unity to all of creation, how everything and everyone is an expression of the universe itself. With no barrier between Me and Not Me, it was as if i temporarily melted back into the fabric of reality

    so yeah, ego death, pretty epic, fair warning though - it does feel like you’ve died, and however much you want to freak out about that fact, you have to let go. Also it won’t happen if you want it, wanting is an ego thing after all





  • Every work of artistic expression, from painting, through photography, all the way to fantasy improv, is a little window into who you are

    the imaginary you is being put in various situations, mysteries, plots, and they have to figure out their way to victory! (and at the same time reveal exactly how you appraoch problem solving, how your logic works, and what assumptions you make)

    it’s like the random shapes test but you don’t even realise you’re doing it

    though it could get significantly harder to see through the layers of fantasy if you’re dealing with experienced roleplayers playing their 50th character






  • “the mirrors seem to be made out of a material you’ve never seen before, they don’t budge” < do the puzzle you fuck approach

    “the mirrors seem to be enchanted in some way, hitting them doesn’t do anything” < i hope at least the wizard will want to do the fucking puzzle approach

    “ok you do that :) the building around you begins shaking, you can see debris falling off the ceiling. The tales of the legendary “cool axe for murder sprees and hitting random objects” hidden in this area will need to be forgotten if you want to live, roll how much damage you took running away.” < breaking weird objects in weird places will get you fucking killed, aka. fuck around and find out approach
