this image actually makes complete sense & that is a fucking trip & a half.
You can take it back even further to the Archudke’s assassin just bumping into him deciding to get a sandwich. One man’s need for lunch 100 years ago gave rise to tentacle porn half the world away. What a world.
Is anybody going to explain?
No? Okay.
1. Archduke Ferndinand is murdered, causing World War 1.
2. The Allies win WW1, imposing the Treaty of Versailles on Germany.
3. This causes tension between Germany and the rest of Europe, something Adolf Hitler takes advantage of and begins WW2.
4. Japan joins the axis in WW2 in order to expand their empire.
5. The Axis is defeated, and Japan comes under US occupation.
6. American soldiers bring comic books, cartoons, and other American mediums to Japan which stay behind even after the occupation is over.
7. Post-WW2 Japan imposes strict censorship laws that include the banning of most conventional porn.
8. Japanese citizens retaliate by drawing comics with women having sex with vaguely penis-shaped objects like tentacles to exploit loopholes in the law.
9. It establishes itself as a fetish even after the laws are relaxed, and so Hentai was born.
Butterfly effect
for want of a lunch, the duke was lost for want of a duke the war began for want of the war peace happened for want of peace fascism rose for want of fascism war again for want of more war the a treaty signed for want of a treaty books came in for want of books porn was banned for want of porn tentacles were made for want of tentacles hentai was born and all for the want of a lunch
My fiancee and I were discussing the worst metal to use to make armor, and the obvious answers are lead and gold, but she cunningly suggested mercury. Which is a fair point, but then I wondered if solid mercury is any good. Googling told me that the melting point of mercury is -38° c (-37° f), so first you get it really fucking cold. At that point, it turns out that mercury has a tensile strength of 1900 mpa, compared to lead’s 18 and steel’s ~500-940 (depending upon the kind of steel).
Now, I know that tensile strength is not necessarily the best measure of a material’s ability to function as armor, but I’m a liberal arts major and didn’t care to actually do that much more research before going straight to, “EVIL ICE DEMONS IN MERCURY ARMOR. THE PCS CAN’T LOOT IT BECAUSE WHEN THEY PUT IT ON IT MELTS AND KILLS THEM.”
Ice Demons wielding weapons made of frozen mercury. Spearheads that break off & melt inside the target. Swords that leave tiny bits of melted mercury inside the wound (the swords re-freeze to razor sharpness while in the ice demon’s claws).
Item: blades, spears, and/or arrowheads made of mercury frozen by Ice Magic; can only be used by one with Ice Magic, but deliver whatever damage the weapon type would normally make plus equal amounts of Cold and 1d8 Poison. Once the wound has been delivered, it continues to deliver 1d8 Poison until the mercury has been removed by healing magic, Wish, &c.
i love how hobbits are canonically so good at hiding in plain sight that they’re basically cryptids to anyone in middle-earth outside of the shire and bree
my personal theory is that anyone passing through nearby who doesn’t know better sees hobbit tracks on the dirt roads and assumes from the size of the footprints that the area must be inhabited by creatures of matching stature, and just gives the whole place a wide berth
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
