Saltworks by Motoi Yamamoto

Yamamoto Motoi (born in Onomichi, Hiroshima in 1966) is an internationally renowned artist who calls his native Japan home. Motoi is known for working with salt, often in the form of temporary, intricate, large-scale installations. Salt, a traditional symbol for purification and mourning in Japanese culture, is used in funeral rituals and by sumo wrestlers before matches.

Motoi forged a connection to the substance while mourning the death of his sister, at the age of twenty-four, from brain cancer, and began to create art out of salt in an effort to preserve his memories of her. His art radiates an intense beauty and tranquility, but also conveys something ineffable, painful, and endless.

“Drawing a labyrinth with salt is like following a trace of my memory. Memories seem to change and vanish as time goes by; however, what I seek is to capture a frozen moment that cannot be attained through pictures or writings,” Motoi has said.

dm: roll for perception
me and one other player: *rolls 17*
everyone else: *rolls complete shit*
dm: it looks like a normal cave. you can hear water dripping faintly in the background, but you can’t see any water. two of you detect a great sense of unease, but you can’t tell why.
me: i use my divine sense.
dm: you immediately detect a massive amorphous evil presence engulfing the entire area, it’s so powerful it’s a little dizzying. the entrance you came through is giving off powerful magical energies now. you also notice there are 10 undead figures poised with bows and arrows surrounding you on a rim near the ceiling.
me: i decide to not mention it.

scott pilgrim straight up killed people though and nobody cared

That’s just how Toronto is

Actually can i point something out? Bryan Lee O'Malley said Scott never killed them. They just were teleported home and had their lessons learned.

thanks after 100k notes not a single other person has pointed this yet ur the very first person

if you die in Toronto you just reappear in your house with a wicked headache

they respawned

I feel bad for the scientists who spent years and years getting their degrees only to eventually end up dressing up rats in lingerie.

I feel jealous of the scientists who get to spend their time dressing up rats in jackets.

who even thought it would be a good idea to put rats in lingerie

Who are we to deprive rats of the right to be sexy?
