Dumb Idea (remembered the joke)
🕑 Added 2026-01-26 16:08:16 +0000 UTCWhat madness could befall a half-dwarf to fill the air with dreams of fast bread.

I mean they could have both, but we cant endanger the bathing scenes. *nodding nodding*

It's interesting how even the guys in this world have child bearing hips.

I think this just another reason for you to talk about big steamy pipes and the hot showers that cum out of them😜

Is multitasking an issue? You can have different pipes for different tasks.

what is civilization but finding new and better ways to turn wheels? When aliens land on Earth it'll turn out they power their faster-than-light spaceships by using some space stuff to turn a turbine.

I think the incentives for an industrial revolution are different (possibly nonexistent) in a world where magic *actually works*.

The Dwarves already do this, I'm sure. That Alloyan mindset is half Dwarf, so it makes sense he'd hit on the idea.

I dunno, I'm reminded of a line from Disney's Hercules (I think I heard it a bunch because they used it in a commercial): "Indoor plumbing - it's gonna be big." Point being, having showers like those is already really, *really* rad. And maybe having that without steam power is slightly anachronistic (I was griping the other day about a fantasy novel that had elevators and not trains, for a similar example), but also, I'm sympathetic to people who want to avoid industrialization and have that option available to them. Industrialization kinda sucks in a lot of ways. Factories aren't fun. To be clear, I like the joke.

I mean, food is good but you dont get to wash with naked bronze goddesses...

Your Terry Pratchett is showing

It seems highly unlikely the dwarves aren't doing this down there in the underworld.
