What if Orks walked among us?

I came across a clip from the Dutch comedian Peter Pannekoek about the difference in reality of everyday life for women and men. He pointed out that men can’t even begin to understand what it is like for women to live in a world in which 50% of the population is twice as big and strong as you, and as a woman, you are 24/7 dependent on their (good) intentions.

He proposed an interesting thought experiment: What if there were Orks among us? Like, everywhere? They would be at your job, in the streets, the shops, the gym, just everywhere you would go. And these Orks are attracted to men. Sexually. Most Orks are friendly. They ask nicely. They court and flirt and are respectful. But some Orks are like: nah, I’ll just take one of those juicy fellows, just because I can πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ. He looks attractive, he looks like I would enjoy him, and I could easily just take him, so why not? And it is not like these are special Orks, they all look the same. So the men can’t know which one will be nice and respectful and which one will suddenly grab you, and make you feel small and vulnerable.

What if Orks lived among us? Maybe it would give the good guys something to think about…

Do not let your friends get away with unacceptable behaviour towards women, men have to hold men accountable. Believe us, we are already busy navigating the real live Orks in our everyday life!

Thanks for listening.

What is your favorite obscure monster from folklore?

Lots of people know about stuff like the Wendigo or Bigfoot, but what's your favorite obscure monster from foklore?

One of my favorites is the Nucklavee from Scotland, which is kind of like a centaur, only it has no skin. Its "breath was thought to wilt crops and sicken livestock, and the creature was held responsible for droughts and epidemics on land despite being predominantly a sea-dweller ".

There's some really interesting stuff out there. What other monsters are there that you think people might not have heard of?

Is there any Dutch folklore?

Hallo!

I recently have been reading about all kinds of folklore and the unexplained, and it's no surprise that Native American, Scandinavian and Japanese tales are widespread.

I'm Dutch myself (posting in English to reach a wider audience), and was wondering if there's any Dutch (or West-European, by extend) folklore of that kind. Scary stories, urban legends, cryptids.. They're all equally interesting, so if any of you know any stories or know where I can find them I'd love to hear about it!

Edit: I read through all your comments, and they were super helpfull, thank you! I have plenty to read about now :)

In honor of evermore, tell us your favorite song from the album and we will guess what your favorite song on folklore is. If you'd rather tell us your favorite song from folklore and we guess your favorite song from evermore, that works too.

Edit: since this is getting really repetitive, you can also comment your favorite LYRICS from folklore and we'll guess your favorite SONG from evermore, or vice versa.

Irish mythology/folklore deserves more hype!

I'm always so sad to hear that Irish folklore/mythology isn't really taught/talked about commonly in Ireland besides children's books and whatnot. I'm a huge mythology nerd and I've honestly found Irish folklore absolutely fascinating! It's dark, complex, and just captivating. There are so many cool gods and figures and the stories are epic! Honestly, after living here for a while and actually being able to see the amazing landscape/environment in person, it's no wonder that the ancient peoples were so inspired.

I know that most countries are usually kind of out of touch with their native mythology/folklore but I feel like Ireland has something really special that deserves so much more hype.

EDIT: @shanebtops has shared an AMAZING list of reliable and accurate resources in the comments, please check it out if you'd like to read more on the subject :)

One for the FPL Folklore - Top 10k average right now is -2.33

Yes, the live top 10k average is a net score of "-2.33" after a fixture against NORWICH on a Friday night. Yep, that's all you need to know about this GW. History being written.

Beloved Cycling GK Foster out of the squad with covid with no prior intimation whatsoever. Some madlads even captained him. Then the match began....

We all watched this shitshow where Josh fucking Sargent scored a Brace. Not 1. But 2 goals. Of course he had never scored before making it more poetic. Of course as normally happens, floodlights go off in the middle of the game, as a result 15 Fucking minutes were added to the regular 90. 15 additional minutes.

Now to address the elephant in the room, Emmanuseless Dennis. 45% captained in the Top 10k. Of course a DGW of Norwich and Burnley what could go wrong? Except Dennis decided to be an idiot and got 2 useless yellows and got sent off in a usesless fashion netting a hual of -1 and -2 for us captainers. At this point not even frustrated, just laughing on everything that happened today. I mean Josh Sargent scoring a Scorpion goal could only lead to this right?

Columbia - you used to work at to make a little money

Chicago - our coming-of-age has come and gone

NYU - there’s only so far new money goes

Penn - gold was the color of the leaves

UVA - and you find something to wrap your noose around

Berkeley - dancin in your Levi’s, drunk under a streetlight

Duke - the smell of smoke would hang around this long

Michigan - been saying yes instead of no

NWU - but there's robbers to the east, clowns to the west

Cornell - hood over your head

UCLA - crawling up the beaches now

[HIRING] MetaZoo Games, a new TCG all about Cryptids/Yokai/Creatures of Folklore, is HIRING! We are offering $350 per piece of art as well as benefits, free product, royalties from auctions, etc...

Hello! MetaZoo is seeking new artists as we expand our line of products. We are only interested in traditional art done with copic pens and watercolor.

Our preferred aesthetic is work done in the traditional ken sugimori, vintage 1990's style. The card art consists of creature, spell, and artifacts.

What I would like to see, either in comments or DMs, is a portfolio of work that shows that you are comfortable working in the above aesthetic.

MetaZoo art work has been featured in our core game (of which now consists of hundreds of thousands of booster boxes, blister packs, etc...) as well as album covers, figurines, clothes, etc... and is on shelves of local game stores in 5 continents as well as Target and Walmart in the coming months.

I know it might seem odd that I am coming here seeking artists given how big MetaZoo has become, but keep in mind a year ago this game was nothing, and was built entirely on the hard work and dedication of freelance artists I found on reddit and instagram. MetaZoo is its art, and that's something special.

My goal is to honor that tradition and seek out new hires in the artist community in whatever grassroots ways that I can, for the rest of MetaZoo's life.

Come be a part of MetaZoo!

CA 2022 Ork Points Rumors

Saw this on Bolter and Chainsword, shared there from someone else's group chat:

Beastboss on Squigosaur +30

Kommandos + 2

Meganobs -5

Scrapjets +10

Squigbuggy +20

Battlewagon and variants -15

Kannonwagon (FW) -20

Kill rig +20

Killa Kans -5

Lootas -2

Mek gunz -5 for all versions except mega kannon

Also mentioned that Deffkoptas and Bikes points are unchanged. I don't know if this is all the changes or if the source is reliable.

Seems a bit heavy handed to the beastboss, +20 would have been have been fine IMO but he will still see play. I imagine the named one is also going up but maybe not by as much.

Meganobz drop is great, they were already seeing play as trukkboyz in some top 8 lists.

Anyway, just wanted to share. Take this all with a grain of salt.

Hola a todos:

SΓ© que esta pregunta es un poco extraΓ±a, pero me gustarΓ­a saber por quΓ© Telemadrid no recurre tanto al folklore madrileΓ±o con tanta frecuencia como otras televisiones autonΓ³micas, es decir, no emite programas dedicados al chotis tal y como hace la TVG con la muΓ±eira y las gaitas o Canal Sur con las sevillanas (principalmente del tipo rocieras), la copla y el flamenco o Canal 9 con las fallas. ParadΓ³jicamente, la ETB no emite aurresku o zortziko a diario ni la TV3 hace lo propio con la sardana.

Un saludo y disculpad las molestias, soy muy inquieto y curioso.

Ghostlore - Diablo inspired ARPG based on Southeast Asian folklore

Hey r/Games!

Ghostlore is an isometric action RPG inspired by popular 90s games such as Diablo. It features:

β–ΆΒ Southeast Asian monsters, like
πŸ§Ÿβ€β™‚οΈ Jiangshi - Chinese hopping zombiesΒ 
πŸ‘Ώ Rakshasa -Β  shapeshifters like the D&D monster of the same name
🍌 Pontianak - female ghosts who live in banana trees
β–ΆΒ Detailed item and character customization
β–ΆΒ Unique skills and multiclass system
β–Ά Crafting and food system
β–Ά Tetris-like glyph system
β–Ά Procedurally generated maps

If you're from Southeast Asia, a lot of these elements should be familiar to you! If you're not, come find out about our rich culture, which is extremely underrepresented in games. Or just come for the pure hack and slash fun πŸ˜„

The main dev (u/Ateo88) has been working on it for over 3 years now, and I recently started helping out as we prepare for launch. There's an old browser based demo (link below), but an updated demo will be out on Steam soon, and Early Access in March. Localization is planned and it's PC only for now, though we hope to port to Mac and Switch in future.

Please consider wishlisting the game as that helps us a lot πŸ™‚ Happy to answer any questions below!

Steam + trailer: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1783280/Ghostlore/
Old demo on itch.io: https://ghostlore.itch.io/ghostlore-web-version
