Cottage to the Core

SUPER DESPAIR WORLD — Fri, 07 Jun 2024 21:54:15 -0400

Happy Pride Month to all the boys and soon-to-be-girls in 5G range! Wouldn't it be cool to get away from big city life and settle down in the country a cute girl, a warm cottage and a few thousand dollars of film equipment to make porn on TikTok? Today we're diving into cottagecore, the gay version of the American Dream that's all about living in the woods without getting hatecrimed.

You Don't Play Warhammer (ft. Demon Fae Shae)

SUPER DESPAIR WORLD — Fri, 26 Apr 2024 14:00:00 -0400

[note: audio is scuffed on this one, it's not your radio picking up alien distress calls. Our bad, I did what I could to save it.]

Apparently some really normal people are very upset about women being in a fantasy/sci-fi war game, so we brought in a special guest on the front lines to find out what's going on. Big thanks to Shae for joining us to chat about Warhammer 40K drama, angry nerds, canon catgirls, and what normal people in the community are actually like.
