Now, Shamus had a policy on his comments, which was "anyone can post stuff, as long as they are civil". If you know anything about community management, you will know that this allows nasty people to infest your community under the vestage of being polite.

And this is what happenned - people were pushed out of the community because unsavoury people kept being given a platform, and defended by Shamus himself.

Talking about a Let's Play series and Communities

Over the years, I read less of the blog posts, and just watched Spoiler Warning. At the peak of me watching the show, it was hosted by

Shamus (a writer)
Josh (a guy who plays games a lot)
Mumbles (a witty wrestling fan (and also the only girl on the show))
Chris (a video game analyser)
and Rutskarn (a comedian and fiction-analyser)

Talking about a Let's Play series and Communities

So there's a show that got me into Let's Plays, called "Spoiler Warning Show".

It started as a side project of Shamus Young's blog, where he got himself and a few others to do somewhat analytical playthroughs of games.

I found Shamus Young through his blog, then after a lot of ignoring it, I started watching Spoiler Warning.

And I loved it a lot!

Tonight's absurd project: assembling a Wasitora, Nekoru Queen cosplay

I need:
--black fuzzy sweater and pants (??)
--cat paw gloves (seeing some on Amazon, but could probably knit better)
--ears and tail (seeing cheap ones on Amazon, costlier ones on Etsy)
--dragon wings (seeing decent ones on Etsy)
--paw shoes (would probably knit them the same as the gloves and stitch on soles)

Anyone got non-Amazon suggestions?

Classic Doctor Who :: Retrospective on the First Doctor

Despite many mediocre stories, the first doctor is still one of my favourites. His charm, his wit, his lovely laugh (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPlI1WpAwpU)... and his indescribable anger at human suffering.

He's a grandfather, who cares deeply about the world and those around him. None of the other doctors have that grandfather-ness to them, and it's part of what made the first doctor so special.
