Here’s some godzilla doodles I did while working on other stuff.

A corollary to "lying to your players":

if you do fancy tricks behind the scenes, but the players can't tell the difference, you might be wasting time with those tricks.

this tends to come up a lot with random generation; a lot of times shuffling various things does not actually lead to different situations or create a meaningful feeling of uniqueness (and sometimes isn't noticed by the player at all) and thus... doesn't add as much as it could

any sufficiently complicated backend system is indistinguishable from a random number generator!

The CDC always issues guidances saying that nobody has to worry about COVID-19 anymore. No need to mask. No need to vaccinate. Do whatever. But these guidances always come with this huge asterisk that says "Except for people with certain underlying health conditions." Most people don't know that they are considered by the CDC to have "certain underlying health conditions" that make COVID-19 a serious concern for them. There's more to fear than death. POTS, chronic nerve pain, and cardiovascular issues are common with infection. They're better than dying, but I don't think you want to get them if you don't already have them.

I got Bingo on this. In fact, I'm on here nine fucking times. Getting even one square makes the CDC consider you among the "highest risk groups." COVID-19 in the Northeastern United States is surging and already 33% high than last winter's peak, and rising. It's the second highest transmission has ever been nationwide. If you're not American, check your own local wastewater data. It's probably surging too.

Feel free to circulate this image without attribution to me. I'd love to see it show up in discord server meme channels.
