important reminder that most people you follow online are significantly lamer than you think they are including me. and if you feel insecure comparing yourself to someone online: DON'T. theyre probably also lame and weird. most people on the internet are

Things in ffviii that I don’t see discussed enough:

Rinoa ripping Squall a new one right before he passes the hell out into a Laguna dream

Squall getting stabbed and tortured and everyone just moving on with their lives

Squall getting so upset at the idea of Ellone depending on him that he has to sit down

Squall getting in his head again at Trabia Garden and Rinoa basically telling him to use his words

There’s probably more I can’t think of.

Okay, so I’ve written fanfic about the first two things on this list now.

A Squall (it took me 3 tries to get something I was satisfied with)

today I found out my mother doesn’t know what dandelions are and now I’m wondering what other strange secrets she’s been quietly harboring

[krystal-prisms]

Where do you live that you don’t have dandelions?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

we have dandelions EVERYWHERE, they are basically our State Weed, it is absolutely impossible that my mom has never interacted with a dandelion before, this requires further investigation

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

So after extensive interrogation I have an update:

my mom is in fact aware that dandelions exist. she temporarily forgot the name and there was some miscommunication.

the truth is actually weirder

she’s aware dandelions look like this

she is familiar with this flower. she knows the name of this flower. she declines to believe, however, that these are also dandelions

she does not believe these are the same plant. I tried to explain, and she thought I was either misinformed or lying. so I asked her what exactly did she think the yellow ones were called?

she answered, with complete confidence: Daffodils.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

gosh I enjoy this website

[authoratmidnight]

For comparison, this is a daffodil

[quietlygrousing]

See, folks in the southern US will tell you up and down those are buttercups, actually.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

i don’t think so? i’m southern and buttercups are what we call these things (much tinier)

[maejacrezz007]

Wait I thought those bigger cup ones were Easter Lillies???

[fractiousrvt]

This is an Easter Lily. It is an actual lily and therefore deadly to cats.

[blood-trip-god2]

They’re marigolds and I know a bitch when I see one!

[delphinidin4]

This is a marigold:

….we need to start taking the phrase “go touch grass” more literally. go outside and examine a flower i beg u

[karateriver]

This post is gold. My dad calls the daffodils jonquils and says that they are the first flowers of Spring. Around here, they come up in February for reasons best known to themselves (climate change).

I drew Cloud based on his appearance in the ff7r ultimania. I never realized he had so many freckles before.

I really love quiet characters that are hard to suss out. I want to know what they’re thinking. I especially love when they have some really fascinating body language for me to study.

Look at these boys. They are not okay in the head.😀

Whilst I heal up from my latest hip surgery, my brother is up in New England testing for his seventh degree black belt (Chil Dan). It’s an exhausting endeavor, I’m sure, and perhaps that explains why this happened.

He hasn’t responded, so I can only hope his knife or sword related advice reached its intended destination.

someone made a website where you can declare your favorite pokemon & why. let's all see if every pokemon is someone's favorite... Together

I fear I may have accidentally reported a post I liked while trying to scroll. I don’t even know what post it was or what I reported it for, but Tumblr said that they will look into whatever problem it thinks I had with the post. I don’t think this can be undone? Wracked with fear and guilt. If this post was yours, I did not mean to do it. I liked the post and wanted to look at it all the time. I’m so sorry.
