THEY WORK IN AN OFFICE, NOT A WARZONE

these are Sri Lankan Frogmouths

half the fediverse losing images any time wasabi goes down for maintenance is a little silly for a distributed thing

OH! "A Story About My Uncle" is a game!

I though Humble Bundle was just offering random tales about their family members
