    D&D: why the new OGL is really bad

    There's some controversy right now about the new OGL (Open Gaming License) published by Wizards of the Coast, the company behind Dungeons & Dragons.

    I don't talk about D&D here a lot, since I know it's not relevant to Fimfiction, but I think it's worth getting this news out. Also they're owned by Hasbro, the same company that own MLP, so it's worth knowing what they're up to.

Smell · 9:32pm Jul 5th, 2018

Not long ago, I walked past a stall that smelled of those evenings I'd spend at my father's office as a kid, helping him get computers working, with a distinct scent of the blue and pink colours he insisted on painting the walls and the faintest whiff of those funny little black-and-white icons Macs used to have.

Smell is weird.

Not that I know of. It wasn't a sensory confusion. Smell is just evocative like that.

Sounds can do that just as well. That Apple 'chong!' noise when it hits something wrong will stop me right in my tracks.

Yeah, it's amazing how an unusual smell can bring back vivid memories!
