I've Started Master And Commander, And 2 Hours In I Have The Following To Report:

I've started Master and Commander, and 2 hours in I have the following to report:

They're doing the fastest Enemies to Friends to Shipmate Speedrun.

Each of them infodumping in turn, then talking about music.

They have the following DELIGHTFUL exchange, about Castillan and Catalan (as best as I can remember it):"But they're quite similar? A putain, as they say in French? - Oh non, they're different languages. And a patois, if you please. - Oh ? I'm sure the other word exists, I think I've heard it."

A guy who Jack is talking to for the first time snitches on another by saying that he's gay. Then asks what Jack thinks of this "buggery business".

For the record, Jack is against it, but doesn't like to see a man hang for it. It turns out that Lt Snitch doesn't really have anything concrete, it's more of a vibe-based accusation.

I'm letting all nautical talk gently flow through me without making any impression. I think Maturin is doing the same.

I have some extra audible credits. Would you recommend using them on the Aubrey-Maturin serie?

always

LE PEN EST MORT!!!

Update: I did a very chaotic run (not trying to be an asshole but also doing all the drugs all at once) and Kim is angelically patient. But you still get moments like these:

Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)
Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)
Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)

And it took all I had not to immediately turn this whole playthrough around. One day my little completionist heart might want to do the fascist vision vision quest but I don't know if I have it in me. I want to do Kim simp run now.

BUT I also put a lot of point in Physique which means I got to see more of Shivers and other dialogue options. Some of my favorites:

Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)
Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)

You get more occasions to see people comment on your different situationships.

Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)

I did the ultraliberal quest and it's darkly funny to me that I sometimes wondered which dialogue option was the ultraliberal and which one was the fascist.

I also wanted to see the ending if you finish the game with Cuno, so I didn't try to warn Kim at the tribunal. I feel like a traitor. Since I have finished the game with Kim before, I knew what he would have said and having Cuno not knowing what you're talking about (or not fucking caring, 'cause Cuno Doesn't Fucking Care) was TORTURE. Esprit de Corps also interjects with vision of what Kim is doing. Just to hurt me, I think. The worst one, in my opinion, is that you can't get a picture of the phasmid and get this instead.

Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)

But a legendary Half-light check let me convince Kim to wear the jacket, so I guess it was all worth it in the end.

Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)
Update: I Did A Very Chaotic Run (not Trying To Be An Asshole But Also Doing All The Drugs All At Once)

Help I want to do a different playthrough of Disco Elysium but I am afraid of disappointing Kim.

However Frustrating The Recent Drama On The Left Has Been (and It Has Been Very Frustrating), Let's All

However frustrating the recent drama on the left has been (and it has been very frustrating), let's all remember how much worse it is on the right (and how much funnier, since I don't have a sense of dread every time one of these far-right idiots trips on his own feet). The Red text says, in French: "Live, 2024 legislative elections: a third preliminary investigation targets Eric Ciotti".

Worked my way through the whole backlog of the critshow. Now the big question: should I make a Patreon account and go through Perilous Tides and Hero Salad?

Image: a western landscape, a huge orange sun sets behind mountains silhouetting a cowboy-hatted figure on a rearing horse.  Caption: And then, as suddenly as he had arrived, the Masked Botanist was gone, leaving the townspeople with only an enriched knowledge of local flora and fungi to remember him by.

This Carrington stuff is amazing. She's only been around for one episode and I LOVE it, I hope she comes back with them.
