Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
Let's not forget mr. Horribly. Which reminds me, is he aware the camp was wiped?
I sure recall he didn't seem to particularly enjoy his time in the war camp, but even then, if his motivations are the same as the other survivors, I expect him to either travel to the war camp, or if he's aware of its current operational state, go straight for the village.

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
I think that's a reference to the pillar of lust. I'd interpret that not as impotence but as lack of sex drive, but it probably comes down to the same effect.

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
If there are multiple warcamps existing at the same time, I don't recall any mention of them, although it would make a lot of sense.
A problem in general is that we don't know much about how Goblins live. We got a pretty good look at life at the warcamp, but we don't know anything about the village. This is also important when it comes to how the Goblins would recover from such a massive loss of life. For example, do they normally bear multiple children at once? How long do they need to reach maturity? How long does pregnancy last? How do familial relationships work? None of the members of the GAP ever mentioned brothers or sisters, nor immigration from other tribes.Originally Posted by J.R.R. Tolkien, 1955

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
Yeah, at this point I'm kind of not interested in the reasons. The patron is apparently charging per page rather than per month and so, let's be honest, a faster update schedule in the first place would have given them the money for all of this. At this point I'm just waiting for the second GoFundMe when her tablet finally does and updates stop for at least six months.

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
I think the moral of this story is that choosing to be a starving artist with a lifestyle and/or conditions that result in significant expenses is a bad life choice.

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
Ah yes "I wanted to get the tablet, but I needed the money for something else, sorry"... Why does this feel like classic Ellie?
Also, I notice how their clothes dryer was broken for months, but the moment the washing machine broke down, they absolutely had to get a new one...

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
Looool...
I have to say, however, that the idea of printing books wouldn't be that bad. Nowadays, one can just use Kickstarter to have people book a copy. It means not having to deal with the danger of unsold copies, and you don't even have to advance money, since you use what the backers give you. In this case, I think rewards would be unnecessary (how long has it been since a Goblins book was available?), and, the more people sign in, the lesser the cost of printing each copy. Make sure you have a profit margin on the per copy cost, specify that postage will be paid by backers, and add a higher cost tier for signed copies, and you have some good money on your hands.Originally Posted by J.R.R.

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
I think there should be a second moral to go along with that: you can't make money from your art if you're not creating art
Clothes dryers are significantly more of a luxury than washers, so if you've got the space to hang up clothes I can see leaving it for over half a year. But yeah, it does feel like once the washing machine broke they took the excuse of 'well if we have to replace one anyway...'

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
But that requires effort. Posting a sad story on Twitter is much easier. Even moreso if you have a Gofundme going already...
Arguably, if you constantly have money issues and - apparently - have some room to dry clothes, you could consider skipping the dryer. Saves both the upfront cost and electricity ;)

Did she ever get the laser hair removal? I don't care about her transition beyond 'I know people gave her money for this, did she just spend it on a new oven?' but it would still be nice to know.

Re: Goblins XVIII: Being yourself can be dangerous
I have a Hard time seeing her as an artist nowadays. She has become an Online personality giving away nude pictures on her second Twitter while being years to late to Blog about it on geocities. I guess we will soon See an Onlyfans Pop up and her attention seeking has come full circle.
