The n-body problem is a fantastic indicator of the space between the entire age of science and whatever is going to succeed it, as something must.*

*To say nothing of events themselves, twentieth century physics and mathematics evolved, in a completely counter-intentional way, to reveal the fundamental neurosis—the fundamental nihilism—of the techno-utopianism that has been the hallmark of the entire age of science.

"Liminal space" came onto my radar a year or two ago, along with "backrooms", because of a genre of somewhat bleak minimalist ambient music in that vein, e.g. see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqjWFZN82_A

Liminality is the more general concept, which originally arose in anthropology!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liminality

In anthropology, liminality (from Latin limen 'threshold') is the quality of ambiguity or disorientation that occurs in the middle stage of a rite of passage, when participants no longer hold their pre-ritual status but have not yet begun the transition to the status they will hold when the rite is complete. During a rite's liminal stage, participants "stand at the threshold" between their previous way of structuring their identity, time, or community, and a new way (which completing the rite establishes).

The concept of liminality was first developed in the early twentieth century by folklorist Arnold van Gennep and later taken up by Victor Turner.

In Friendly Neighbourhood Ranger topic (Drizzt) - when D&D: Honor among thieves movie was released, my hopes for cinematic version of Drizzt rised. I do think his story is great and people not familiar with Salvatore's books would also love it.

I have DM-ed one-shot set in Menzoberanzan once - on my friends bachelor party (I was the bestman). They played dwarves, the groom was about to get married, and they were magically transferred into male drow bodies and had to bow before Female Lloth Clerics in this matriarchal world 🙂 Moment later two displacer beasts killed them all...

So were you in fact trying a last shot at getting the victim, I mean groom, to back out of getting married?🤨

The bachelor party RPG session had to have something about marriage in it, right? I wasn't trying to convince him otherwise, nor did I tried to show him who rules the world...

And yes, they are divorced now.
