One feature that’s bugged me (pun intended) for a while in Bok’s Banging Butterflies is how butterflies only ever land on the tops of blocks. In real life, butterflies and moths land wherever they please. They’ll land on walls or ceilings, completely ignoring gravity like tiny winged rebels.

The Snow Leopard Emerges
While I was in Almaty, I wanted something to read, so I did some research and discovered there was an English-language bookstore in the Dostyk Hotel.
Breagar’s Road to Recovery
After being attacked by a group known only as “Section”, Aegon gathered a few of his allies based in Nashkel to help raid their base.
Statues of Wat Si Saket
Possibly the oldest temple still standing in Vientiane, Wat Si Saket was once used as a headquarters by the invading Siam. Today, it houses more than 2000 Buddha statues of clay and silver. It also houses a small museum, despite still being an active temple.
Space Crew: Emergent Strategy
Marquez leaves the gun emplacement and heads to the security station. Phasmids have breached the hull again. He’s handled this a hundred times before. As soon as the airlock clears, he triggers the purge. Air rushes out into the vacuum of space, dragging the invaders with it.
Immutable Butterfly Scrolls
The butterfly mod is full of bugs, and not always the good kind. This week another bug was reported about Butterfly Scrolls changing after an update. This was a weird one to solve, and unfortunately the fix will only work for scrolls placed in future versions of the mod.
Korean Pride vs. Irish Pride
As far back as I can remember I’ve been an ally. I’ve been involved with Pride events in many countries, often through my involvement with Dragon Burn. A few years ago I attended Pride in Dublin, and was surprised to see how different it was to Pride in other countries.
More Than Just Assassins?
With the now one-armed Breagar back among them, the Troupe resumes its journey to the Cloakwood. Though bandits no longer roam the roads between Nashkel and Baldur’s Gate, assassins still mar Aegon’s path. The Iron Throne wants him dead, but so far they have failed to achieve that goal.
Ho Phrakeo Museum, Vientiane
Once a temple that housed the famed Emerald Buddha, Ho Phrakeo carries the weight of centuries in its walls. Originally built in the 16th century, the temple was ransacked by the Siamese in the 18th century. The Emerald Buddha was taken to Bangkok, where it resides to this day.
The Dangers of Darkchester
The Ridge family has now survived over two weeks in their harsh, post-apocalyptic world. Though they’ve largely solved their water crisis, food poisoning continues to plague the shelter. Their lives may be marginally more stable, but comfort remains a distant dream.
