Handing the Google executive currently chained in my basement a piece of paper that reads "Shall I end your torture?" with one checkbox that reads "No" and another that reads "Maybe later."

I would die for Tessa. I would find her 200 toothbrushes.

[crowcaws]

So it looks like Tessa has been using these veggietales toothbrushes for ages, but has misplaced the stash.

If a fantasy world has an ancient tree of wisdom, that means it must also have young trees that are dumb as shit. Just giving terrible advice like, "the evil wizard is kinda hot"'

#that would be hilarious #you'd have to measure trees to make sure they knew what they were talking about

I can easily see this fantasy world having idioms like "Never take the advice of a tree that's small enough to hug."

(Also, I'll bet some of those young trees give bad advice on purpose, because entertainment is at a premium when you can't move around, and your morality system is very different from that of the meat creatures.) (What do trees know or care about the evil wizard's actual attractiveness? Sending him all these suitors is pretty funny though, so they're probably going to keep doing it.)

Consider: Two Pando-style clonal forests that overlap. It appears to be a vast forest, but every single "tree" is actually just a ramet of one or the other clonal organsim. Both are Ancient Trees of Wisdom™, but also they hate each other; you can never be sure which of the two you're talking to, but you can be sure that any advice one of them gives the other will disagree with on principle.

[marlynnofmany]

Out: one guard lies and one tells the truth

In: one forest that speaks in a single voice will tell you dubious information, and the other will contradict it no matter what, and you can't begin to categorize what kind of situationship they have going on, but they're clearly working through something on a geologic timescale

One of the symptoms of narcolepsy is called automatic behaviors where you’re…doing shit automatically. Cause you’ve fallen asleep. And one of my biggest ones is picking up my phone and opening Facebook or TikTok and scrolling, but sometimes I’ll Google stuff and once I came too and I had googled “swet goat kind eyds” and “beaufik long esred gosf” and was just scrolling through photos of goats

“Big Pharma” okay are we talking about how privatization and monetization has deeply corrupted the field of medicine or are you talking about how you think chemicals in the water are making the frogs gay

[greyramblings]

“GMOs”? Are we talking seeds that grow sterile plants and patenting genetic modifications then destroying any competition no matter how small they are? Or are we talking life saving rice with vitamin a to make sure kids don’t go blind in regions not suited for other high vit a veg? … or are we talking about your chidoodle?

@abluescarfonwaston’s idea

[welcome-to-the-shit-library]

the bit of chapters like 75% of the way through htn are hysterical for a lot of reasons but im personally a big fan of how. Gideons going on and on about how Harrow doesn't even like her and never will and didn't even want to eat her etc etc and then we cut back to Harrow and she's in like. ghost group therapy grief counseling. post grief lobotomy. grieving so hard she's writing au fanfic

[welcome-to-the-shit-library]

Gideons giving a speech to Ianthe about how Newsflash Asshole she did this all for the love of the game and thats FINE. she's FINE with it because harrow could never gaf about her even a little bit

and all the while Harrows back in her chapters like And Then I walk into a coffee shop and gideon is the barista and she's a little sweaty from the kitchen and when she hands me my coffee our hands touch and our eyes meet and- . anyways the locked tomb is a comedy
