it got worse.
so I accidentally typed the phrase ”Todd Meier’s Elder Civs” and I feel like I’m looking at something that shouldn’t exist
stuff just flat-out does not render unless someone’s looking at it
if you get too close to the edge of the map it starts repeating textures
falling through a black hole breaks your player model aspect ratio
you wake up as a prisoner with no idea what the hell is going on
Reasons the universe was made by Bethesda™ according to a physicist:
The sun experiences 2 x 10^38 clipping errors every second. This is accepted as the only viable way to gain energy other than through microtransactions
Due to a bug, the one of the fundamental forces does not affect objects rotating counter-clockwise
Gravity.exe throws a DividesByZeroException if two objects get within 1.6 x 10^-26 nanometers of each other
Two electrons will clip through each other and get stuck together if they touch while one is upside-down
84% of items are not visible in-game, but still take up space
E3 trailers heavily advertised anti-matter. This feature did not appear in the final release
The open-world map is 46.6 billion light-years in radius. The nearest planet to the starting location is 54.6 million miles away. Fast travel is not yet implemented
the most recent of these bugs was logged 4.6 billion years ago. It has yet to be resolved
I SWEAR TO FUCKING TODD-
Fucking.
So Im just playing Fallout 76 right? I decide to try out a Nukashine and punch some Super Mutants.
The last effect of the Nukashine is that you pass out and you spawn randomly somewhere in the world.
So inevitably my screen starts to black out and character passes out. When my screen starts to fade back in, I am greeted with this:
The confusing and disbelief when I started seeing the silhouettes of a body and a horse carriage could not be described. After the screen finally cleared up I thought, “Are you fucking kidding me Bethesda? The ONE time I use a Nukashine and pass out, I fucking wake up TO THIS?”
let me SHOOOOW YOU the POWER of BERNIE SANDERS, born of the North, where my breath, is loooong winter!
how i felt giving my dad one, final, night-before-the-primary impassioned speech about why he should vote for bernie sanders over joe biden in tomorrows illinois primary, touching on subjects such as income inequality, climate change, and medicare for all while high off my ass just now, vs how i probably looked
that aligns uncannily well with this meme I found on r/teslore last week
Y’all mind if I *Dumps absolute garbage from Twitter on here*
how dare you hide this in the tags @neproxrezi
Me, playing Dawnguard: what’s a cliff racer? Why would you canonize someone for killing them? No one is canonizing the dragonborn but cliff racers can’t possibly be as bad as dragons.
Me, playing Morrowind, dropping to my knees in prayer amidst a cyclone of sixteen squawking cliff racers swarming me for daring to walk a whole 20 feet towards my next quest objective: O Glorious Saint Jiub, who slew the winged menace…
TES Science: Harrowstorms are Caused by Oxygen Radicals
Context: There is a field of chemistry called ‘Radical Chemistry’ and it is the study of free radicals. Free radicals are molecules that contain one unpaired valence electron. Cause of this radicals love to react with things.
One known radical is an Oxygen Radical, these are produced naturally but some conditions can make them appear more.
So how do oxygen radicals connect to giant red storms that turn people to vampires or harrowfeinds. Well this is less how they work and more how they are created.
Things we know about Harrowstorms is:
- There is a ritual.
- Alchemy is involved.
- Remains are used especially in those of the elderly.
Now despite what people say, alchemy is chemistry. Chemistry would not exist without alchemy. So, I can substitute alchemy here for Chemistry.
When it comes to actual storms, especially thunderstorms ozone (O3) is needed. It also causes that ‘pre-rain smell’.
This is the formation of Ozone:
It requires oxygen radicals to form.
Now another interesting thing to note is a theory of ageing called DNA Damage Theory. In short, this theory states that physical ageing is caused by the DNA naturally damaging cells and then replacing them over time. This can partly be done by the DNA breaking down and bi-producing oxygen radicals. The body naturally produces oxygen radicals.
When organic matter has an excess amount of oxygen radicals something called Oxidative Stress happens.
As shown above, this can also cause major health issues if allowed to go on. Your body naturally prevents oxidative stress with antioxidants. However, if you look at the image of the oxidised apple, and then compare it to Harrowfeinds.
and you begin to see that the two sort of look similar.
Harrowfinds seem to look like there tissue has gone though oxidative stress. Because of the Haorrwstorm that requires oxygen radicals.
In sort the Harrowstorm’s cause harrowfeinds and the harrowfinds made boost the harrowstorm.
While the prosses of making a harrowstorm is labelled as the theft of life energy it could be semi science explained. Hypothetically the magic used could force aging, producing a major amount of oxygen radicals that would then, A. kill someone, or B. turn them into a harrowfeind (with the added vampire magic). This would also make storms self-sufficient as long as there where bodies around.
To add to all of this, it can be argued that the Reachmen witches fully know how this works. The evidence to support this is in their wicker masks.
While these masks look cool there is actually possibly more to them. Thanks to probably data mining or ZOS, we know the Icereach coven motif is made out of a type of Willow.
Now scientists have studied willow trees because they are well known for their medicinal properties however one study, I found states:
Willow bark extract protects against oxidative stress. The thing that I am proposing Harrowstorms can cause.
In short, this implies if not confirms the Icereach witches have knowledge of radical chemistry. Radical chemistry was only really started in 1900 and it takes a log of pre-chemical bases to get there such as organic chemistry, chemical mechanisms, electron theory etc.
Meaning as a culture it is highly likely that the Reachmen are the most scientifically advanced in terms of practicality. Meaning they care much more about medicine, textiles, ecology, and improving quality of life than say the Dwemer’s flashy machinery and hall blades.
TLDR; The reachmen are likely the most scientifically advanced race in TES, Harrowstorms is a good blend of magic and science.
I'm taking a bath with lights off and a lit scented candle, I thought it would be a nice relaxing experience but I feel like a draugr in a skyrim dungeon
I think about this post a lot. let me recontextualize by framing it like this: St. Jiub’s crusade would be like some random guy making it his personal quest to kill every last magpie in Australia, and then doing it.

I have no idea what my sense of humor even is because the funniest thought I’ve ever had that I tell myself to feel better is Elmer Scroll
the worst symptom of adhd is when someone gets hit in the boingloings. boingloings. boingloings. boingloings. someone got hit in them
Long live chimer-dwemer friendship
SHIT, is THAT why Oblivion was Like That?!
You've heard of TERF bangs, now get ready for whatever the hell this is
so we did that “get your server to sing a song” thing
