I can be found at @parrotttom.bsky.social on Blue Sky, and my current plan is to migrate there completely at some point in the near future (likely once I feel like enough people have been able to that I'm not abandoning folks who have no choice).

@regal_bones I love that the text is inspired by the radioactive waste warning

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@ULucipus Interesting! You didn't want to just use the Gunslinger class?

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@Vooness @EliteDangerous @Lavecon_ @LaveRadio Huh. Somehow I'd never heard of this.

@otherhappyplace I have a 19 year old coworker who told me her doctor was 'a prune' and I was like 'i am sorry but I cannot trust your gauging of anyone's age because you are very very young'

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@Ti_Dinzeo who could hope to imitate my incredible charm and grandiloquence

but fair point

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

Alright, y'all, I think I'm done with Twitter. It's been real, it's been fun, but at times it hasn't been real fun. You can catch me at Bsky if you wish to catch me. I'll leave this up for like a day or two before I actually close out my account so peeps can see it. 🫡

@Roxyarnie1 No joke, I started to call it 'that white and blue website' and then I remembered that's what some people call OnlyFans, and I was like... you now, I'll reword this before people think I'm making a career change

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@riseupcomus Between them and the Cauldron Born and the... gwythaints? I might be getting that one wrong, anyway, Arawn wasn't lacking for quality minions.

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@otherhappyplace that was the most terrifying minute of my life

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@aifendragon @Jcstearnswriter LOL, you saw what I did to Earth in the WY6 universe....

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

The great difficulty of cosmic horror is, how do you really capture the unknowable? How can something written by a human really portray something that exists outside of all human experience?

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@Jcstearnswriter That's fair. It's hard to worry about humanity's place in the universe when you are actively being eaten by a jaguar.

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@Jcstearnswriter Because it's rooted in xenophobia, which is no longer (thankfully) the zeitgeist?

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@TheNicholasWolf Is it with the Vile Employer? Or someone else? Either way, I'm glad you're getting work hombre!

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@Jcstearnswriter I agree with you in a sense, I think that can work very well. The issue, of course, is that the modern market is very about drilling down, always drilling down, more details, expand on everything, franchise everything.

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

Looking for a new market to expand your business? Have you considered Hell? Eternal damnation offers a captive audience of 54 billion souls. And with modern analytics, you can see how well your campaign is working in real time! Here's some testimonials from happy business owners.

@AlexWoodroe who are they for then

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@aifendragon Funny enough, I wasn't thinking of Lost. But honestly yeah, fuck that stupid mystery box of a show.

[Thomas 'Retcon' Parrott @ParrottTom]

@VoiceOfKosh There is definitely a big push towards not only all answers all the time, but all answers are true and authoritative. Characters are never themselves ignorant or misinformed, oh no.
