There's no contingency too extreme for Apple. They're not gonna let someone break into your house armed with a universal TV remote if they can help it…
Icelandic Waters #1: “This is a box of rocks. Please try to be better than it.”
Icelandic Waters #2: “Remember when Google's Gemini made the rounds when it claimed that you could benefit from eating one small rock a day? If that advice turned out to be true, I could absolutely eat some of the smooth brown ones . . .”
Icelandic Waters #3: “That's because Gemini is literally a box of rocks. It's an apparition created by a hundred boxes of rocks that have been melted into superconductive metals, forged into intricate microscopic shapes, and assembled into a device that turns complex vectors into a sequence of glyphs that can be parsed by the human mind. It's no wonder it wanted us to eat rocks.”
Icelandic Water Dragon: “. . . what.”
I’ve completed the three main questlines of the Watcher’s campaign, obtained all the achievements introduced in the DLC, and finally reached the true ending! All that I can say without spoiling anything is A. yes, you return to the campaign after the main ending, and B. the true ending puts Saint’s campaign to shame.
Apparently, the second act of The Watcher got released . . . and I didn't notice?! This message was also hidden in the patch notes, and I don't know what it's supposed to mean:
These were represented in lines as the three waves of the river, and then of the star with five spokes, and then the three of columns vertical.
Icelandic Water Dragon: *opens Pixel Cat's End* “. . . oh no. Ohhhh no. We’ve got trouble on our hands, Morpeko . . .“
Icelandic Waters #1: “It begins.“
Icelandic Waters #2: “It’s never good when the ground starts shaking, is it? I mean, most of the problems caused by the ground shaking aren’t indirect.“
Icelandic Waters #3: “WAAAAAAAAA-“ *pulls up Goomle and frantically types “TERASTALLIZED STELLAR-TERRA GROUDON GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE“ before imploding into nothingness*
Preston: “Hey, Mia! Why are you still so small?”
Mia: “I got kidnapped twice, got threatened by a giant circle with Doritos for arms, and died because you're a terrible mentor!”
Preston: “So you've been having a good time?”
Lakkatura: “Blegh . . . that left a bad taste in my mouth. I really did not need something that came that close to home, especially at a time like this…”
Icelandic Waters: “This sounds like something we could parody for the purposes of the Colibria Thread. I mean, we already have a similar story on our hands in which . . . never mind. This does remind me of the original Marzinory writings. Maybe I should revisit them; now that Colibria is physically branching out, we could use the material.”
Lakkatura: “Dude, it's 10:35, you're prematurely heating up your sleeping bag, and you're wasting time venting! And you haven't even made a record of the bathroom stall jail dream we had last night…”
This is my definition of a liminal space. Nobody has touched this place in a decade, and yet it remains. It's kind of a sad place, considering the great nostalgia it has. The creation held there has since vanished, but I'm sure that it still lingers somewhere in one of my older devices. I'm considering making a tribute to it in the form of a stylized Rhythm Doctor level . . .
Icelandic Water Dragon: *is doing some personal renovations; removing an unused wall-mounted lamp, as well as several random screws and nails stuck in the walls*
Icelandic Waters: *pulls out a sheet of paper jammed behind a box* “I think I just struck me some archival gold, Pa.”
Icelandic Water Dragon: “Aaahhh, the WoT Thread, intertwined with the Coy Thread. A classic example of Colubrine Sector meddling in the affairs of the wrong fandoms. Tail to head, just like those Mediterranean sea serpents. Considering that it's been nearly a decade since Flashkit and Rumbacat billowed terror upon that world from their little third continent, I wonder if the left side of the chart has become outdated…”
Icelandic Waters #1: “YOLO!”
Icelandic Waters #2: “. . . and you're throwing away your one chance to live? That's not what ‘YOLO’ is supposed to mean….”
Icelandic Waters #1: “. . ?”
Icelandic Waters #1: “Hmmm . . . this is, more or less, what happened the last time I did funny business with black holes. Figures!”
Icelandic Water Dragon: *casually reading a news article about unusual spells in Dungeons and Dragons*
Icelandic Waters: “Y’know what would really take the stress out of making a D&D character sheet, what with writing a personality and backstory, tweaking their EVs, describing their appearance and making a balanced ability set? Pulling all that data - and I mean allllllll of it - from a system that has readily and extensively catalogued that data.”
Icelandic Water Dragon: “. . . I wasn’t planning on doing a D&D campaign anytime soon, but, sure, I’ll go along with that idea.“

Icelandic Water Dragon: “Do you think it’s a good idea to be openly sharing those ID numbers?”
Icelandic Waters: “Ehh, it’s probably no different from codes on dollar bills. Besides, they match, meaning that they actually correspond to you.“
People are playing Silksong and flying around in giant Nokia phones, while I'm still waiting for No Man's Sky’s Voyagers patch to get released on the Switch…
