Park Ranger uniforms.
But also, we used to do fambly breakfasts every week, so just about every Sunday morning you could find me and Puffin in a restaurant, talking about war and setting up ambushes and killing people. (We were both Firan staffers). Got some very interesting looks.
-
@hellfrog I always loved talking about Shadowrun plans in public.
-
The weirdest thing I ever talked about publicly that got me strange looks was the fact that teleporters should actually kill you and create an exact copy/duplicate at the other end of the teleport. Only the duplicate thinks it’s the original, so in your mind, you don’t know that the copy/duplicate is dying every single time you teleport.

The Ship of Theseus problem is my favorite grenade to drop into a lame party vibe.

@shit-piss-love Fun fact: If you really break it down, the Ship of Theseus problem is basically the entire plot of Cyberpunk 2077

Less fun fact: The Ship of Theseus problem is basically the entire plot of going to sleep at night.

@Testament Ghost In The Shell, too, if I remember it right.
Wait, are my memories the Ship of Theseus?
-
@GF Probably. Is the you that went to sleep last night the same you that woke up this morning?
-

Nah, not unless you define the “self” to such a narrow degree that it becomes useless. When I go to sleep, everything that makes me “me” continues to exist and act; I even continue in awareness, experiencing vivid sensory hallucinations even if I forget them afterwards.

I have googled shit about shock and gunshot wounds and first aid so many fucking times that they probably could prosecute me for something.
Every time a search history comes into a case in court, I die a little inside.

Played a violinist cannibal chocolatier serial killer once. We all get to be over-edgy once. So, the google search for that one had to be all time of trouble. How to make these or that out of insert body part.
-
I’ve researched a lot of weird things. The one that really comes to mind right now, though, is the history and practices of the Thuggee.

Remembered another.
How much less does a body tend to weigh once it’s been drained of blood.

@helvetica Early world of darkness days for me. 2000’s.

My revolutionary Free Councilor had me looking up some stuff on making bombs at home, which is definitely my biggest “watchlist” research.
My Arx Prodigal had me looking up pre-modern tattooing techniques. They range from the impressively hardcore to… well, just literally cutting patterns in the skin and adding some dye.
