Reply to i loooove having millions of liquid crystals, coerced by captured lightning, to obscure this pane of pure light. each shadow is a sigil, and baby, i'm crafting incantations of a millions of these runes. by twovests

If you describe the process of building a phone in fantasy terms you can see that it kind of is a sort of dark magic.

Thousands of slaves spend their days digging up the earth to produce a tiny quantity of rare metals and elements. These are etched into intricate runes by automatons, themselves built by scholars and technicians that have spent their lives studying these secrets.

Legions of our brightest minds spend their days writing incantations that allow these rune devices to perform new tasks, and sometimes, subtly alter the way those who use them think so they spend more time looking at them. Sometimes, people stare too long at them and lose their grip on reality.

I really believe if you described what smart phones are to a medieval peasant they think you lived in a horrible and profane empire under the control of dark wizards that create lovecratian madness runes. And they'd be right.

Reply to works of studio Fullbright by devtesla

You don't have to look up what Toilet Spiders is. If you're unaware of the story, Gaynor got kicked out of his own studio during the development of what was going to be Fullbright's next game because he's an asshole, sued to retain the Fullbright name, and now is releasing $5 early access horror games as a solo dev.

i know "technology is magic" is pretty cliche by now, but the thing is that it IS magical actually.

we are so saturated by magic, that it's become passe.

we're fucking tired of magic. there's too much of it. give me a tea and a sunset

these jira tickets are magical and. there are so many of them. what would my therapist say
