Map of Native American etymologies for “horse”. There were no horses in the Americas before the colonists arrived. Native Americans quickly developed new words for this strange animal, often associating them with dogs, their one other domestic animal before contact with Europe.
@coyotecure your tags have me cackling omfg
Mystery dog…
GOOD NEWS EVERYONE
The Spanish: Look at this animal we brought with us.
Native Americans: oh that’s a uh. Weird fucking dog you got there.
why can rockstar games institutionalise you for life like nikita kruschev for being autistic
He didn't steal 10 million dollars. They made that number up as a loss, they never fucking had it. Rockstar has spent more than a billion fucking dollars on GTA VI and will likely make billions more when it gets released.
Uber is a fucking shell game of a company designed to leech investor capital and output bootleg cabs.
Nvidia posted a profit in 2023 of $4.37 billion. This is like someone stealing less than a penny from me.
And they lock this kid in a prison hospital for LIFE?
Capitalism is disgusting.
Nobody should buy GTA til they free Arion Kurtaj
What with GTA VI going up for pre-order i'd just like to remind everyone that rockstar conspired with the UK government to lock an 18-year-old away for life for hacking them.

Wait, it got better.
He does this a lot, to my deep surprise in undergrad:
For reference, the reason nobody likes this book and you can press tofu with it is that it’s about 1600 pages long.
It’s also, by all accounts, the origin of Cousin Throckmorton
In a kingdom where the heavens have gone silent, only you can speak to them.

Possessed of a rare gift long dismissed as myth, you harbour the ability to divine using the literal threads of starlight that form the tapestry of time. When your sacred power finally draws the attention of the palace, the royals summon you to the capital and give you the title of Nursrava, the conduit of the divine light. Once you arrive, you expect to live out your days in quiet service to the royal family.
Instead, you discover that the kingdom is on the brink of a collapse. A desperate crisis is unfolding beneath the palace's majestic facade, and your power makes you the ultimate prize. You are no longer a guest but rather a pawn caught up in the struggle between those who seek to exploit your power and those desperate to protect you and your precious gift.
Within the palace's vast stone halls, those you choose to mingle with may decide your fate. Whether your growing closeness arises from a forbidden glance during an encounter or a whispered promise in the dark, you must choose whom to trust with your life — and your heart.
Amidst the swiftly crumbling politics of this kingdom, you are the only one who can see the truth — but in a court built on lies, the truth may be more dangerous than you realize. As the walls close in, you must decide: will you surrender to the duty expected of you, or risk everything for the one who finally captures your heart?
Choose your gender (male, female, non-binary), physical traits and gender(s) you are attracted to.
Shape your personality to reflect the kind of Nursrava you want to be.
Pick one of four potential romance options (either all male, all female or a random mix of genders): The Silver Tongue, The Exiled Sun, The Silent Shadow or The Celestial Anchor.
Shift the balance of courtly alliances and choose how involved you want to be in the kingdom's future.
Sameer/Samira [m/f]: The Silver Tongue (moodboard)
A lithe, kohl-rimmed blur of wit and charm, S is the palace's "necessary evil". The reformed thief who now deals in information, they navigate the royal court with a cynical charm and a sharp-edged attitude that is as much a weapon as it is a garment. They have no patience for "destiny" or the "divine", preferring to trust in the daggers at their hips and the opportunities they make for themselves. S is unpredictable, resourceful, and entirely too fond of a well-timed double entendre.
Devraj/Devika [m/f]: The Exiled Sun (moodboard)
D enters any space like a summer storm — all heat, noise and with undeniable magnetism. As the Citadel's most-loved military instructor, they wear their larger-than-life charisma like armour. They don't shrink themselves for anyone or any space, favouring bold laughter and storytelling that borders on the legendary. While they claim to be guarded against the nobility that view them — and their tumultuous past — as a threat, their generous heart is as open as the training grounds they command.
Najim/Nejma [m/f]: The Silent Shadow (moodboard)
Observed but rarely and truly seen, N is the quiet heartbeat of your daily life in the palace. Clad in the functional uniform of a bureaucratic aide, they are a master of the understated — always present with a cup of herbal tisane for your headaches, or a path cleared of obstacles for your ambitions. There is an intuitive stillness to them and a physical grace hidden beneath the facade of a civil servant. N speaks little but sees everything, moving through the court's shadows with a loyalty that feels ancient and absolute.
Jai/Jaya [m/f]: The Celestial Anchor (moodboard)
A figure of towering, lean elegance, J moves through the palace with the unshakeable gravity of the constellations they chart. Draped in heavy silks and accompanied by the rhythmic chime of gold jewellery, they represent the pinnacle of traditional scholarship and courtly prestige. As a master of astrology, a precise and logical discipline that relies upon mathematics, they are inherently suspicious of your esoteric sight. To J, the universe is a series of solved equations, but you are the variable that threatens to break their proof.

A YA romantasy writer filed suit against another writer for copyright infringement, and as is always the case with these things, she padded her claims with delusionally spurious examples. The judge issued a 160-page ruling against the plaintiff where you can tell from the start how resentful they (or whatever clerk actually did the work) are to have been forced by duty to have read the works in question.
"Alaska is a place known to the public, so setting a novel in a Alaska is not copyrightable."
I'm giggling. This is so sassy.
knowing how it tends to go with male authors and their wives it was probably marge who wrote the odyssey
Thats when you know it’s bad
So I just stumbled across your tumblr by happenstance after looking up your “wanna be cryptid hunter series” and I saw your reddit was deleted. I was searching for it since I just finished a book that reminded me of that story (its The Twisted Ones by T. Kingfisher, if you’re interested!). Anyway, I hope you’re well. Your works got me through a tough time in my life and even though I’ve seen you aren’t fond of them I wanted you to know you did leave an impact on some random british guy, and I’m thankful I had your stories to provide a wonderful distraction from the slog that is the real world lol.
aw. I don't love to talk about my nosleep years but this was actually very very nice to read. Overall, I'm doing well, even though I'm sick as all get out right now and am really not feeling so good haha. I hope the tough period is over and that you came out better/stronger for it. I know that's not always how it goes, but I wish you the best, random british guy!

Scarlet Hollow, my beloved
Hello, I'm sure you get this question a lot and I'm sorry if you've previously answered as I've just come across your tumblr. Have you posted your amusement park story anywhere else? I stumbled across one of the posts in my bookmarks a while ago and was disappointed that not only was the sub locked, your account was gone! My requests to get into the sub have gone unnoticed (or ignored) and I was wondering if there was anywhere else I could read your old stories. No worries if that's something you'd like to leave behind, I was just hoping to get some sort of closure as I greatly enjoyed your spooky stories when I first discovered them years ago.
I just wanted to break with it. The sub is closed forever and I deleted my acct. A lot of those stories have become a source of embarrassment. If it's the amusement park story specifically, there's a 7 hr reading of it up on YT by some narrator called dayton or something. It's not reading, but it's something :)

The Course of True Love from Red Dead Redemption 2
MEXICO WIN!!! FUCK AI!!!
Having rewatched Pirates of the Carribean several times, I have noticed something interesting. Will Turner is often the only survivor of massive shipwrecks, like the one that killed his mother or the one with the kraken. Other times even when hes alone he survives drowning in ways he really has no right to, like the destruction of the Interceptor. He just often conveniently finds a perfect sized piece of driftwood or something. Remember what Calypso said? About him having a “touch of destiny?” I think that the sea could never kill him, will always cradle him and protect him, because all along he was destined to be the captain of the Flying Dutchman. The sea could no more kill him than a human could cut off their own arm.
#gonna mentally pair this with that post about how elizabeth heralds death #every man she kisses shortly afterwards dies at sea #and she sees the ghostly black pearl as a girl when no one else does #and at the start of the story elizabeth - the sea's own psychopomp - sees will floating past and sounds the alarm to save him #and she falls in love with the one man the sea will never kill (@aethersea)
