#GNU Terry Pratchett #the glorious 25th #Discworld #rebloggin

I love the dynamic in the Discworld fandom on this site, I think it's mainly because there are a lot of dormant fans, if you will, who've read and loved the books for years but haven't engaged much recently, who sort of reappear whenever a fun post is doing the rounds. It's fantastic. We get the cozy small fandom vibe without the screaming matches, but also get the popular posts from time to time, y'know?

YEP. In fact for some people it’s Emotions Day right now.

To everyone tagging and commenting with some variation of “Oh, I almost forgot that it’s tomorrow!”

“Damn! Damn! Damn! Every year he forgot. Well, no. He never forgot. He just put the memories away like old silverware that you didn’t want to tarnish. And every year they came back, sharp and sparkling, and stabbed him in the heart. And today, of all days...”

That’s so very meta of you.

IT'S EMOTIONS DAY TOMORROW

#oh I need to read enough discworld to understand what emotions day is

For anyone who's confused today, I won't spoil/explain what the 25th of May is in the Discworld fandom, because I think a big part of what's special about it is the way the plot unfolds in the book.

What I will explain though is that it'll make sense when you reach a book called Night Watch, which is the 29th book in the overall series and the 6th book in the City Watch subseries. If you haven't got that far yet, just take your time and enjoy the series! If you want to start with the City Watch stories then the first book you should check out is Guards! Guards!

And have fun!

It's that time of year where this post appears again like Reg Shoe digging his way out of his own grave

The last character you drew/wrote about is now stuck in the last game you played. How screwed are they?

#Hey Sparrow.... welcome to Outer Wilds!#on one hand you're screwed #on the other hand a lot of people will have reasons to get very drunk within the next 22 minutes #rebloggin

A 15-year-old boy is about to base his entire personality on the last movie you watched for the next 10 years. HOW BAD IS IT?

He is going to get himself killed. Badly.

He is going to (try to) kill himself

The most obnoxious person in the world has just been born

FURRY (derogatory)

FURRY (normal)

Not much has changed? But now he's stuck like this for 10 years? Yikes.

It's cringe but it could have been a lot worse

At least he'll have fun at Comic Con

If anything this is a slight improvement.

He's not a boy anymore. He's a man now.

She's not a boy anymore. She's a girl now.

FINALLY, a son I can be proud of!

it fucking sucks being a disabled person who can't work and having to see these fuckass posts where someone's like "ahaha jobless people have no life and that's why everyone shitty online has No Job" and everyone and their mother reblogs it joyfully onto my dash for me to see. yes unemployed and unemployable people are truly without exception dogshit people with no hobbies and no redeeming qualities. you're so right. anyway if you'll excuse me i have to start my shift at the I'll Never Be Employed Because Of Permanent Disability And I Love Knowing How You Really See Me store

adriagan

if ur able to work can u reblog this i am seriously SO sick of it.

adriagan

btw this isn't solely a disability rights issue or an issue about people who are entirely unable to work. you should also be thinking about the people who are regarded as unhireable. transfems are hugely discriminated against in this way, people of color are passed over for less qualified white people, anyone who has any difficulty playing the interview game is less hireable... frankly anyone who made the mistake of pursuing the things they love and now has a degree for a niche field. if you still joke about Jobless People it's because you've fundamentally connected the worth of people to their labor, and specific labor, work that you see as valuable. and while i'm at it stop making fun of people who still live with their parents. asshole.

#rebloggin #Do you know how difficult it is to find a job rn WHILE relatively employable?????#Anything less than that feels like being on Terror and Starvation mode #I was lucky enough to get somewhat stable temp jobs over this past year and a bit and even the places that liked me didn't make me permanen #stop tying people's Value Under Capitalism to their inherent worth as human beings. asshole.

incredibly pleased that everyone is following the instructions i forgot to give and reblogging to explain their choice in the tags 🙏 more of that please i want to know about your ocs and also i love you

#Em is blatantly evil because she made a deal with the embodiment of Avarice #forget the fact that it's a gambit to get revenge on him by giving the Agency a direct shot to take him into custody #this getting revenge on him for killing a teammate's uncle #or that she's an amnesiac whose trauma causes her to act out in reckless/hypocritical ways #we can't let women do something morally nuanced in a horror ttrpg! /sarcasm #rebloggin

#GNU Terry Pratchett

Friendly reminder to say nice things to your GM after a ttrpg session, I saw someone else mention it a few days ago and it reminded me to message and compliment our Triangle Agency GM after we wrapped up a very heavy/emotionally intense mission in our campaign.

He really appreciated it and now we're just talking about how much we're both looking forward to the upcoming finale and enjoying the shenanigans we all get up to :3

#rambling #ttrpg #like seriously when you take four sessions to try and prevent a military coup led by an embodiment of Conflict #infiltrate a police station to save a bunch of protestors #nearly die like half a dozen times #and have another player suddenly/dramatically retire their character in the last few minutes #let your GM know they're doing awesome!#Aftercare is important after all <3 #oh and there was also the argument over whether or not to retcon a right-wing podcaster out of existence #more intense than you might think when your enemy is emboldened by all acts of violence and also may be influencing your own behaviour

new tumblr game. put in the tags a GENUINE flaw your fav(s) has. cant be something like "too kind" or "loves too much" like something genuinely bad messed up morally wrong they are or have done

#Brittany from Pikmin 3 is awesome as a character and hilarious as a foil to the other two koppaites #but she should not have been in charge of handing out rations #you're all out there fighting for your lives you can't give more juice to yourself when you have an engineer and a ranger #who both also REALLY need that energy to do their jobs at full capacity #She can also be needlessly mean and passive-aggressive at times #And I'll give her leeway for being a botanist and not expecting to be dealing with giant monsters (and Charlie's flirts) on an alien planet #But Alph isn't doing anything wrong :c #Louie is fair game though #rebloggin

Hello friends!!! On this April 1st I- with neither guile nor ill-intent- invite you all to listen to Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up with me, because it’s a fun song that I enjoy. You’re a free agent in this decision entirely. Happy April Fools Day

Happy ten years to this post! As always, I am inviting you to listen to this incredible song along with me if you so choose.

Hey! Spin this wheel of Every Pokémon!

This is now your Pokémon Partner. Whatever you would want to do in the Pokémon world, your Result goes with you. It would be your Ace in Battles and/or contests or they might just help you around with your regular Not-Inherently-Pokémon Job or just hang around your house as your beloved Pet. If you really really want to BE a Pokémon than this is the Pokémon you just turned into.

How are you feeling about it?

HELL YEAH!! THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE POKEMON!!

OH!! I LOVE THIS POKEMON!!

Yeah, this Pokemon is great!!!

This Pokemon is good!!

This Pokemon is nice, but nothing more

...I mean, it could be better

This Pokemon is okay…

I have mixed feelings about this Pokemon…

Not bad, but I’m still kinda disappointed…

Well… it could be worse?

I mean, at least it’s better than NOT having a Pokemon, right?

OH NO THIS IS ACTUALLY WORSE!!
