Wake up in a damp beige room. No pictures, no curtains, no shelves. A bright white light in the middle of the ceiling that makes you look old in the mirror. Employed. (Full time.) Side hustle. (On call.) Side-side hustle. (Freelance.) Single. (No time to date.) No kids. (No time to raise a person.) No pets. (Not allowed in the lease.) Don't smoke. (Expensive.) Don't drink. (Expensive.) No car. (Expensive.) No bike. (Working on it.) Walk to work. Walk in the wind. The rain. The snow. Walk to work. Work 8+ hours. Sometimes 12. Sometimes more. Unpaid lunch break. Take the pills your brain needs to stop letting you die. Walk home. Fall asleep in a damp beige room, with a cold white light that makes you look old in the mirror. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Wake up in the damp beige room on your day off with the sun shining. Spend your day off with the sun shining cleaning out the shitbox sublet that costs what used to be a house with a yard and a car in the driveway, a stay-at-home parent to raise the kids, cable, hydro, a once yearly vacation somewhere nice (but not TOO nice) and a dog. Go to bed. Wake up and do it again. Sit on the toilet at work and scroll through the real estate listings, hoping for something maybe smaller, maybe cheaper, maybe something to hope for. See five, six, seven times your gross annual income. Money you'd make maybe, maybe, if you switched to store brand. Stopped buying fresh produce. Stopped eating meat. Only drank water. Only bought the day-old discount bread. Stopped buying a bus pass. Canceled your subscriptions. Stopped taking your meds. Shaved your head to save on shampoo. Wore the same outfit every day. Washed your clothes in the shower. Unplugged the fridge. Stopped using the stove. Sold your microwave. Got a fourth job. Got another roommate. Started an onlyfans. Got a sugar daddy. Did some medical tests. Sold your blood. Sold an organ. Maybe two. For a small space to call your own, to put up shelves and paint the walls any colour in the world that isn't beige, and maybe have a family. Nothing extravagant. Literally the bare basic minimum, just yours. And if you think about it too long in your damp beige box then you start to feel some rather strong feelings
What are some chronic illnesses that can only occur in a fantasy setting?
SUPER CANCER
It is much like regular standard cancer however it does not kill you, it simply covers your body in permanent and debilitatingly painful tumors that usually look like cysts, but they aren’t cysts though don’t think they’re cysts.
Follow for the same picture of a rock every day

Heck yeah man, keep it up
i say "godspeed, soldier" way too much for someone who puts their faith in neither god nor the military
And I say “amen brother” to those not related by blood nor faith.
why are people so against necromancy? Like im not gonna use your undead relatives to raid villages i just need friends to play uno and dnd with
ON THE OTHER HAND THO IS ENCHANTMENT WIZARDS
THAT SHIT IS STRAIGHT UP MIND CONTROL LIKE WHO MADE THAT OK BUT NOT RAISING THE DEAD???????
The enchantment wizards made it ok obviously.
Classic wizard question:
If you could replace any one object with a grilled cheese what one object replaced would cause the most chaos?
Rules clarifications-
It is only one object, not all examples of that object (one single dollar bill is replaced with a grilled cheese rather than every dollar bill In the world)
Must be one continuous object (for example you can do one road but not the interstate highway system as that is a collection of several roads)
It must be able to be theoretically removed while still be recognizable as that object (for example you could do a building, including the foundation but not a mountain as without the land it is over it is not a mountain, just a big rock, no oceans or continents)
Has to be on the planet cause deleting the sun or moon is a boring answer.
you never said it had to be a physical object. So earths gravitational pull. Everything on earth would still have gravity but that doesn't really matter when all of us would die. If we can choose when we do it I want our planet to be lined up with Venus. So that they collide.
Turn the mantle into grilled cheese, that would be funny and catastrophic aswell
I don't think it would be as bad as earths gravity
I didn't say it was as bad i just said it would be catastrophic and funny
Fair point
The most stupid answer that would cause the least chaos is "my grilled cheese"
you could replace a ungrilled cheese with a grilled cheese and save yourself like 5 minutes
Yes, you could but I did say the most stupid answer
if we're going concepts you could also replace the number 69 or 420
You think it would make it so the word “sixty” is replaced with “grilled” and “nine” is replaced with “cheese”

They look so defeated, crushed under the burden of the weight they’d been bearing
I saw the picture before I read the words and my initial thought was “damn, who drew power lines face down ass up?”
Mermaid Meiosis
Dear Science side of Tumblr,
Are mermaids half human and half fish or are they their own separate species? Cuz if they're half human and half fish then there is a very little chance that the offspring comes out as full human/full fish. imagine two mermaids have a kid and then it's a tuna. You could have eaten a mermaid's kid and not known.
Sincerely, an idiot
Imagine, if you will, mermaids where the fish half is actually a symbiotic species that latches onto the lower half of humanoid species and keeps them alive underwater. However in exchange the host must do some kind of service to the fish half and if the fish half dies the person half dies but if the person half dies the fish half can find a new host. I’m thinking something along the lines of the fish half only grabs onto spell casters or magic people and then drains them of most of the magic they produce. Or perhaps there’s a mind control thing and the fish half needs arms to harvest the semi-precious material that they eat. Or even the fish half finds dead sailors and puppets them around until they decompose. Many possibilities.

I did this to help illustrate a point I'm making in a different post, but I feel it's relevant above and beyond that specific context.

<older man and older woman chatting amiably at a table, their conversation is just on the edge of intelligible>
Denise: Oh, hello!
Bill: We were just talking about you kids.
D: I’m Denise Heberle (HEB-er-lee)…
B: And I’m Bill Goodman.
D: Together we’ve been fighting fascism for over 50 years.
B: And so much has changed over those 50 years, such as the ingredients to a successful firebomb!
D (cheerily): And the glass that bank windows are made of!
B: But there’s one thing that hasn’t changed over 50 years, something that is so important to tell you kids who are new to this movement.
Both: Shut the fuck up.
D: You’re sitting in the police transport van after a protest?
B: Shut the fuck up. In a holding cell, with your comrades?
D: Shut the fuck up. Cop knocks on your door?
B: Shut the fuck up.
D: Texting on an unsecured device?
B: Shut the fuck up. Pulled over by the cops after a protest?
D: Shut the fuck up. Cop just asking about your day?
B: Shut the fuck up. Feds call your mom?
D: Tell your mother to shut the fuck up.
B: Now. Repeat after me. When the cops come calling, what do you do?

This series is not going anywhere, but I wanted to tell the lore(?) or whatever it is…
Honestly, I'm not trying to put much thought or lore into it, because I feel like it's unnecessary…
It's not historically accurate, nor 100% logical etc~
It's just a silly comic where little characters go into different books, have silly little adventures and grow their personalities outside of their assigned roles~
Sometimes they go back to their books (which means, they became stronger enough to go back and face whatever made them run away) Sometimes they don't, and that's okay~ That's the fun of having different characters with different backgrounds~
(Btw I feel like people who know me would think "oh, no sh** your favorite trope is found family" Well, what can I say~ Loyalty and a group of friends that essentially become your family, it's pretty cool)
I love this premise, it reminds me of this book I read (sadly a stub now) called prophesy approved companion and the main premise was the characters in a hyper advanced VR game we’re gaining sentience and learning about themselves but they were already like fully formed people? It was a great read and the whole breaking out of programming/ growing personalities out of assigned roles thing has highly appealed to me ever since.
GAME OVER: This story is now COMPLETE. Thank you all for the wonderful ride. A couple of years too late to see it live? It's now availa

Mermaid Meiosis Pt 2
How do mermaids have kids??? Do they make eggs like fish or are they like mammals and they just birth the baby? If they make eggs then is mermaid caviar technically a thing? If they do birth it then where is it coming out of? And do they make breast milk? With that side note, are the seashells or mermaid breasts a part of them or???
Sincerely, an idiot
Greetings idiot!
Now keep in mind I haven’t taken a biology class since high school, however, I have a few intresting ideas for each case
Case 1- The traditional mermaid
In the event that the mermaid is completely humanoid from the waist up with the exception of possibly gills or some other method by which they breathe water I believe it would make the most sense that they have live birth due to them having breasts and presumably the nursing habits and instinct to care for their young up to a certain age that is shared by all mammals. These mermaids would pretty much have the same mating habits at humans, just underwater. For examples look to sharks or other fish that give live birth
Small aside: you could take this a step further and have mermaids modeled after existing sea mammals such as whales that have to breathe air, would be cool and give them an excuse to interact with humans more as they have to regularly go to the surface anyways.
Case 2- the standard siren
The most common siren I have seen examples of have the fallowing traits. Predatory, scaled, uses illusions to lure sailors to their doom. From this we can construct the second hypothetical mermaid, focusing more on the mer side of the equation. These would be completely scaled from head to toe but use some form of illusion to make humans think they are beautiful maidens (or beautiful men, they are adaptive). These are completely fish like but can hold their breath for awhile to hunt their out of the water prey and have NO BOOBS. I repeat ALL SIGHTINGS OF BOOBS ARE ILLUSIONARY. Fallowing with their casting as villains and completely fishy nature they would likely lay eggs en mass. And because of this would be unlikely to try and care of their young
What society they do have would reject the swarms of young tiny sirens (perhaps these younger forms do not even yet have limbs or resemble humans, as that would be reserved for the adult stage of their lifecycle.) alternatively they COULD care for their young but would be canablistic, the young ones eating eachother and the adult eating these younglings in times of hardship and the adults feeding the excess food they cannot eat themselves (not really a way to preserve things in the ocean) to the younglings. Either way this would result in a small crop of adults reaching maturity each year from the hundreds laid.
I could come up with more but my brain is tired and I need to clean the bathroom so let me simply address the other points you have for both of the ideas
TLDR
Eggs?
Mermaid-no
Siren-yes, fish eggs and therefore in theory caviar, although actual caviar is actually only from one very specific type of fish and the size of the fish eggs could be pretty big as the size of the fish that spawned them is person sized at minimum
Where do they come out of?
Mermaid- same place as a whale
Siren- you know every animal on earth has some kind of birthing hole right? Even fish?
Breast milk?
Mermaid- yes
Siren- no
The sea shells
Mermaids- A bra if they even bother, it would probably be more practical to construct some kind of binding out of seaweed instead
Siren, no titties, could wear seashell bra with some kind of “it gives something for the magic to build off of” but probably nothing.
