Congratulations! You Have Made It To The Ping Pong Chamber!
it's nice to leave some kind of big horrible disfiguring scar on the person you love
mark of ownership that will burn and ache in your absence. they'll never ever be able to forget you.
i got these knockoff boots online and instead of the brand name on the tag they have the name of an apparently nonexistent martin scorsese movie??? what the fuck
THE ORIGINAL? ON MY DASH
this post led to a series of events that had martin scorsese himself reacting to his alleged movie goncharov and it has less than 400k notes almost 3 years later?
I am a huge fan of retiring to my quarters
In this economy you'll be lucky to retire to your nickels

Man, I want a dog. :(
I have realized I can just up and ask you things now and may perhaps use this power for evil. I quite liked the worldbuilding you and the other DS9 Reboot authors did for the Tzenkethi, and I was reading along your recent works and got clotheslined by the factoid that Mathenites apparently make really good soup, and you can tell if a Cardassian has been in exile in Mathenite space because they suddenly turn up with all these excellent soup recipes. I suddenly really, really care about the Mathenites. This little descriptor made them wholly and entirely real for me at like warp eleven. I'm wondering if you have any other Mathenite headcanons puttering around?
Aha, yes, you've got me where you want me. I don't have much in the way of headcanons about the Mathenites, to be honest. There's just that one throwaway line in "Second Skin" about their government giving sanctuary to Tekeny Ghemor, so I thought, well, let's run with that and assume that other people find sanctuary there. I think the guys from the government-in-exile are there, in Hollow Men?
I think I decided their culture must be quite welcoming and hospitable, and perhaps that (amongst other things I haven't quite worked out) is why they don't mind a bunch of Cardassian emigres settling on them. Maybe they've got beef with Central Command and like pissing them off, particularly now the Cardassians are not really in the business of invading anyone any longer. Maybe they like dissidents as a matter of principle. Maybe they're just good people.
It's warm enough, but I think damper, and maybe when winter hits all these Cardassians start getting really miserable, and the guy who runs a café where a bunch of them hang out thinks, "I know what'll cheer them up - soup." It's great soup, like a really good nourishing soup, and the Cardassians all love it, and so people keep making them soup: "Oh, we've got some Cardassians coming over, I heard those guys are crazy for soup..." And that's pretty much all the emigres talk about when they come home and you ask them about their time amongst the Mathenites: "Those guys make amazing soup. You know, I really miss that soup. That soup used to really cheer me up. Let's make some soup." And everyone is really miserable after the Fire and when they try the soup they agree that it's great soup and makes you feel better. And then some enterprising folk in Ses'erakh realise that there's a market for Mathenite-style soup, and start sticking it on the menu for the returned exiles and their friends. And there's your soup.
And it's not like soup is particularly a Mathenite thing. I mean, they do good soups, but it's not the first thing that comes to mind when Mathenites think about Mathenite cuisine, which is probably more the grilled meats or those weird and vaguely gross cheeses that none of them particularly like but you couldn't do the festivals without them. It's just that some guy saw all these sad-faced exiles one winter and thought, "I can't send them home, but I can definitely make them some soup." Which I like, because it means it's a foodstuff that was always sort of fusion from the outset. There'd have been no "Mathenite soup" without a bunch of Cardassian exiles. There'd just be soup.
There's a Mathenite character in a very minor role in The Peacemakers.
No. Freaking. Way.
@afoxnamedmulder
got my first ever official customer complaint because when i was going over the terms of their life insurance they were like "well i don't plan to die" and i was like "well you're going to"
I didn’t realize there were so many people getting destroyed by mattresses 😂
I love these so much.
A downloaded copy does not automatically represent a lost sale; many people who obtain unauthorized copies would not have purchased the book at its retail price in the first place. Treating every download as a lost sale assumes that every downloader would otherwise have become a paying customer—an assumption that is not supported in every case.
What people think the x files is like:
Mulder, on the phone at 3am: Scully have you ever realized that the white pedestrian symbol looks just like the sighting of Bigfoot on the Patterson-Gimlin film?
Scully: ohmygod Mulder please go to bed
What the x files is really like:
Mulder, on the phone at 3am: Scully have you ever realized that the white pedestrian symbol looks just like the sighting of Bigfoot on the Patterson-Gimlin film?
Scully, on the phone at 3am: Mulder, of course it does. The ambulatory pattern of species descending from Homo erectus, zoological or cryptozoological in nature, does not differ. In fact, this similarity lends even more credence to the idea that said ‘bigfoot’ is just a large man in a suit. Now, please, let’s go to bed.
just saw an entire thread of people sincerely describing a content creator's pattern of posting a large amount of content and then taking breaks as "obviously grooming her audience" via "love bombing and ghosting" which i think could have been a really exciting innovation during the steven universe discourse era of tumblr
Is that man mansplaining
or are you misusing that phrase?
warning: i made this while annoyed and tired so feel free to correct it how you see fit
I have noticed a couple of people trying to use the word mansplaining to get trans men or trans masculine people to shut up about whatever topic it is they're discussing
and it made me realize that the word "mansplaining" has been bastardised into "a man that I dislike or disagree with talking about something"
6, 11, 14 for the book ask please
6. What books have you read in the last month
Not a lot (it's been a tough month), unfortunately. I've only managed the latest volume of Case File Compendium (I believe it's Vol. 8 and I have to report that the book remains as ridiculous, plotless, stupid and braincell-killing as it was in the previous seven volumes) and I reread the first part of Trek's Millenium trilogy.
11. What non-fiction books do you like if any
I don't think I like non-fiction all that much - and definitely not in a way that involves my trying to find any to read for myself. But I do read quite a lot, about history, and politics, and law, and economy, and pop culture, and philosophy, and science. Though they're usually handed to me as gifts or recommendations.
14. Do you ever mark/ear dog books you own
Nope, never. It annoys me - and yes, partially because I wouldn't remember why I marked a specific part in the first place.
[guy who genuinely fucking loathes himself voice] well on account of my charming and endearing nature. Of course
Go on, ask me about books
