Stardew Valley is wild cause it’s this fun wholesome little game where you raise animals and grow crops and get married but it also has monsters and dwarves and the mayor and rancher lady are secretly fucking and it’s heavily implied the shop owner’s daughter is actually an illegitimate child his wife had with the local wizard and there’s a note from your grandpa saying he’s gonna return from the grave and visit you on the dawn of your third year in the valley

Don’t forget that the country you’re in is being invaded by a much larger nation, one of your fellow townspeople has PTSD from being tortured in a POW camp and it’s causing him to lash out at his wife, one of the marriage candidates lives in an abusive household, another one is suicidally depressed, the mayor is using taxpayers’ money to build solid gold statues of himself while the infrastructure crumbles but everybody’s so disenfranchised with politics that nobody ever stands against him for election and, oh yes, the main plot of the game is that a supermarket is trying to destroy the town so that they can stripmine the local area.

Okay but this is probably the post that will make me buy this game like

What the fuck I thought it was just a farming sim

Monster: I have come to kill you, Percy Jackson.

Percy: Hold on, let me ask Annabeth.

Monster: It’s not a choic-

what is it that makes swords seem so unattainable? you can get one for like $20 on amazon. sure some of them are upwards of 300+ bucks but thats for the real artisan shit. if you just want a blade you can grind and swing around thats so cheap. replica swords arent hard to make. swords ARE a reality you can achieve. but they seem so lofty. like something beyond what any of us could ever dream of owning. and yet we can

it's because you're not supposed to buy them they're supposed to be given to you by a lesbian in a lake

A quick reminder for folks in the US: if you haven't seen anything about ACA open enrollment this year, that is by design. Secretary Azar wants to lower enrollment numbers to justify pulling funds from medicare/medicaid. Here are your dates:

The 2020 Open Enrollment Period runs from Friday, November 1 to Sunday, December 15, 2019.

Important: 2020 Open Enrollment is only a few weeks

If you don’t act by December 15, you can’t get 2020 coverage unless you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period. Plans sold during Open Enrollment start January 1, 2020.

Always enroll, you never know when you will need it, also if your state bought into the Medicaid extension plan, you might qualify for free health care instead.

eowyns 'i am no man/you look upon a woman' moment is great iconic and all that, but how fucking funny would it have been if shed just killed wk without bothering to bring up the loophole she was about to exploit and just let him die all confused about wtf just happened

it must be really weird for anyone who was taught by dumbledore and mcgonagall and the rest to become teachers and have to, like, treat them as colleagues

like, snape and lupin have one (1) thing in common and it’s a pathological inability to call dumbledore by his first name

[bloodyhellharry]

Correct me if i’m wrong, but wasn’t McGonagall more or less in the same year as Tom Riddle?

Does that mean that Dumbledore was also her teacher?

[frederichthedragon]

Minerva McGonagall has called him Albus since she was eleven because she is a queen who bows to no one

[thatgirlonstage]

The image of an 11yo Minerva McGonagall looking her new professor dead in the eye and saying “Will there be homework tonight, Albus?” is too powerful for words

I can just see it going down something like this:

Shiny new transfiguration professor Albus Dumbledore: “Now you won’t be able to turn your matchstick into a needle on the first try, of course, but—”

Tiny eleven-year-old BAMF Minerva McGonagall with a Scottish accent thicker than pea soup: “Ayy! Ye cannae know that!”

Albus Dumbledore, whose experience with the results of being patronizing to small badass children is insufficient to warn him not to: “Oh, absolutely, young lady, you might surprise us. Or any of your classmates might, it’s true.”

Tiny smoldering barrel of magical talent with “TNT” painted on the side Minerva McGonagall: “What’ll ye give us if we do surprise ye?”

Brightly-colored balloon of good-natured obliviousness Albus Dumbledore: “Why, my dear Miss McGonagall, if you can give me a needle on the first try, I shall allow you to call me by my first name.”

It’s a very fine needle, and she calls him Albus for the rest of her life.

tumblr updates and releases a new added feature where if somebody both likes and reblogs a post from you, the notes get combined so you only see them once instead of twice so your notes are less clogged, and the nofication says "[tumblr user] thrumped your post: [text from the post]" and everybody goes fucking NUTS that tumblr decided to call it thrumping, and the meme for months is people making up nonsense words for things, like "oh boy, i gotta wash AND dry my clothes, guess you'd call that BLIRMPING them!" and it is the real talk of the town and there is negative discourse about the decision because there are a million things they could do to display the notes better, and thrumping was certainly not a high priority, and thousands of people comment on @support's posts calling them names and ordering them to change it back, which obviously only brings back radio silence aside from one post they make which seems to be adding onto the thrumping meme, except they don't quite get it right and end up saying, "man, i gotta take the LINT and GARBAGE outside to the curb, in a TRASH BAG... guess you'd call that SCRALFING!!!!" and everyone makes fun of them so badly for the post that it gets deleted; on the other side of tumblr, the alt-righters figure out a way to make a post with that joke that gets really popular but it is later discovered that the specific word they used was actually a slur that is not very well-known amongst most people, and so people decide to cancel the meme because it is problematic, and people get called out for having any iteration of it on their dash, but then one day someone makes a post like "thrumping haha it sounds like humping" and somehow out of the darkness staff discovers it and deletes that person's account, starting an outrage; one day apple looks into tumblr more and discovers that thirteen of the highest-ranked executives and employees at the company are smuggling illegal drugs from china and decides to take it off the app store because of this, but they don't realize that was the reason for it and thinks it was because of the thrumping crisis, so they decide to immediately remove all code related to thrumping and somehow accidentally delete the entire notifications feature, which now has an added bug where you can only reblog a post that is not currently liked by you, and if you somehow get around this, your account hard-permabans itself. this goes on for about three and a half months before it finally gets fixed and two weeks later no one even mentions it
