Group leader: What are you anxious about Me: [thinking about how I can’t get my dwarves to transport the corpses of the giant badgers they killed so they get butchered in Dwarf Fortress] um my children’s future, nuclear war and stuff

The dwarves make a counterproposal: miasma

You don’t have to worry about this, do you @daks.bsky.social?

I love Serious Trouble, the occasional newsletters/blog posts, whatever other podcasts... But this is the content I'm *here for*

I liked this but it's not enough to express how much I like this, so consider this skeet an extra-like.

😉

Oh Christ, then there's the miasma.

People who are neither small-g gamers nor anxiety/depression sufferers probably have trouble imagining a game becoming a focus of stress and anxiety but let me tell you it can TOTALLY happen if the game drops at a bad time for you. Just SAY “Masters of Orion III” and my blood pressure shoots up.

Last I remember, they won't butcher animals killed by military squads, they have to be hunted by a hunter or tamed and butchered. (Also, Ken felt anxious contemplating badger logistics)

Honestly, same. Playing Shapez 2, really annoyed i can't do anything to make my trains depart the loading stations only when they're full.
