WizardOfLoneliness

np hope you enjoy

nothing left to do but the obvious- shit yourself so that you can own it with swagger

if you like readin' manga and can get away with it this has been pretty good i'm havin' fun with it

oh my god the doctor just told dwarves about the concept of a mixed drink, there goes "do no harm" RIP their livers

edit: oh my god they didn't even know what distilled liquor was, RIP their livers x10

POV you're a dwarf drinking your world's first cold beer after a lifetime of warm ale

:dwarf-skeptical:

oh it's actually a thing but wikipedia says the word probably actually comes from a german cognate instead

this manga is claiming that soap is called soap because of some hill near rome where people would burn sheep offerings and their rendered fat would mix with wood ash and make primitive soap and idk sounds Myth Plausible to me

i took a bite of one and even though i brushed my teeth later i still had spicy spicy feeling in my mouth like two hours later ahhhhhhhhh

what if we opened up a Hexstore to sell Hexmerch and we use it as a means to employ under-employed Hexbears to help funnel them income while also helping them build a "work history"

My brother recommended this manga to me called The Isekai Doctor - Any Sufficiently Advanced Medical Science Is Indistinguishable From Magic and I dragged my feet in getting around to reading it because, i'mma be real, I don't even really read manga that often anymore

but it's actually pretty good, I like the art, and I like the underlying materialism inherent to the set up. Like, the setting is one where demihumans persecuted humans because they're weak or whatever, so god gave them healing magic, but then a plague happened and the humans started to take over and now they monopolize healing magic to their benefit

so the MC is a medical doctor who gets isekai'd and starts treating people's injuries with like, you know, medical science. He's got a doctor's bag with some basic medicine, scalpels, saline, etc., and it's enough that he can perform some relatively miraculous saves, enough that people think he's some kind of mage

anyway there's like the underlying geopolitical consequences looming of his ability to teach this knowledge to other races, breaking the human race's monopoly on healing, as well as like, obviously he's going to have to figure out some means of replicating his tools and medicines and equipment, which I'm excited to see happen

CW though, slavery shit, in the very beginning he saves a girl and woops she's a slave and let's just say her village gets Real Weird With It, even for anime with slavery (basically I mean like, THEY MADE HER A SLAVE, but then they use that status to treat her like shit, like even her own grandpa, like, what the fuck guys)

other random thing I like: instead of a stupid little animal sidekick (that turns into a little girl) like every other fucking mango out there, he gets a giant fucking Chimera buddy, and the artist MAKES HIM CUTE AS FUCK. CUTE LION FACE. CUTE LIL SNEK. LOVE HIM. idk if he'll turn out to be a little girl though, it remains to be seen

edit: CAT GIRL MEDICINE

are you a fucking moron
