Depends, of course. Isn't NSG's stance right now that it's to trap men into those sweet, sweet child support payments?


That is not my stance.

I want to see any child I father. So 50/50 split, and if I can hold a job next to it, so can she?

Venicilian: wow. Jesus hung around with everyone. boys, girls, rich, poor(mostly), sick, healthy, etc. in fact, i bet he even went up to gay people and tried to heal them so they would be straight.
The Parkus Empire: Being serious on NSG is like wearing a suit to a nude beach.
New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.

Well, bottle fed, sure. The milk tap should be a bit more present to home for the first year at least unless she wants to work and doesn't mind feeding formula or hiring a wet nurse, no?

Sure, we can arrange things for the first year.

Or, you know, not break up with her, if that is an option.

Vastly preferred.

Yep! Hired one ourselves as I had work (and to be perfectly honest I couldn't quite hack the pain of nursing them). Godsend, problem otherwise is that, since they're not eternal fountains but limited storage devices during the lactation period, getting the breast pumps out the night before work just doesn't supply enough milk to keep them fed throughout the day and it's not like I was going to be sending more along by courier when I felt I had enough in me while at work.

On today's episode of Swaglord's Bizarre Adventure, the Swaglord confronted his inner demons, in a blatant attempt by the TV execs to earn an Emmy and be considered "deep".

(In all seriousness, my day was unpleasant. :( )

How's everyone?

Saturday morning episodes of Inspector Gadget back in the eighties may have been partly responsible for my appreciation of the death metal genre, come to think of it.

I love these indie games that render themselves (practically) unplayable after you complete them.
Also I probably can't sleep tonight. And I fear that if I close this game, Monika will crawl out of my PC screen like in the Ring and butcher me in my sleep if I do.

But if you don't close the game and leave the machine running, the situation is even more dangerous. Close the game, turn off the computer, pull all the plugs. This does not have to be the end.

At least it's not me crawling out of your screen. While I wouldn't cause you harm, knowing myself, I'd likely start preaching about morality in the most annoyingly lawful stupid manner possible. And that's terrible.

Also, for good measure, draw some sigils upon your electronics, and invoke the wills of the Ruinous Powers. That should work quite well. :)
