  • Maybe. Don’t actually know, the ones I’m in contact with have pretty universally chilled out but who knows about the other ones. Though even with that I’m not stupid enough to assume I wouldn’t fall back into my ancestors ways of banditry and murder, just requires the right targets and enough leeway to get away with it. Would be pretty lucrative for example to raid those shitty little orthodox Mormon communities out in the desert especially with a crew.

    But like I said, as of right now all the ones I know were killers are dead or so old that they won’t be pulling that shit again.





  • Yeah and several of them were my kin and were murderers. My kin were the folks who you went to when you needed someone dealt with, hell I wouldn’t be surprised if my great great aunt killed someone as a favor to the Hells Angels back in the day. Let alone some of the kin I’m less close, I know at least one of them ended up in prison for murder back in the day due to some such Berdoo nonsense. Funny enough a kinsman who I only met once was also in Prison at some point and was on the bad side of the law into old age threatened to kill my sperm donor, glad he didn’t kill stealing is a step to far and that sombitch belongs either to my grandmother or myself.






  • That’s kinda the end result I would expect from music streaming being a thing. Folks with more specific tastes will gravitate to their weird little niche genres meanwhile folks who don’t care will continue to listen to whatever popular trite gets pumped out.

    Just looking at my quick picks that aren’t artists we’ve got Witch by L-79, something in cyrillic that I can’t copy paste or type (inri inri abracadabra), Vigspá by Danheim, several Hulkoff songs, and several Credence Clearwater Revival songs. Nothing about my fucking suggestions is normal and that’s not even factoring in my digital library which is an ungodly mix of heavy metal, vocaloid, classic rock, synth, and whatever random songs I’ve ripped from games cause I liked them.




  • Hence why Lilly triggering some time of ancient ritual or creating a new ritual to counter the killing curse makes sense to me. Mind you Rowling is shit when it comes to in depth world building, but what she does set up even unintentionally is that the wizarding world is on decline possibly in a 40k type way where they are simply losing more and more knowledge after each generation. Having Lilly create or activate an old ritual either intentionally or not doesn’t remove the sacrifice it simply remove Rowlings stupid power of love trite. The power of love is still present but more symbolic in Lilly using her and possibly James as a catalyst to protect Harry.

    Also I have accidentally pointed out the flaws of Rowling writing just to nerd out about magic systems. I don’t even dislike soft magic it’s just Rowling did it badly, aight gonna go read Yojou Senki.
