The face Milhouse made haunted me for years. I don’t know what it is about that grimace that branded itself upon me but… it stuck. It stuck with me for years.

Even now, I feel a certain coldness

listening to fleetwood mac is like. i don’t know this song but let’s give it a shot. oh wait i do know this song. i’ve heard it a million times and always liked it, i just didn’t know the name. on some level i kind of assumed that song was just an ambient part of the world the way the sound of the wind or birdsong in the trees was but apparently it’s by fleetwood mac. neat.

this isn’t what i normally post here but firefox just switched ceos and this “anthony” dumbass is trying to put more “ai” slopware into it, meaning more bloat and privacy loss

if you use this browser you should go to their support forums and complain about it

Link to the support forums so you can leave your feedback.

Also, how to remove AI features from Firefox:

irritatingly, the list of AI settings in Firefox has grown. to kill them all as of today (Nov 20, 2025), go into about:config and set all of these to false (yes, you’ll have to copy and paste them one by one):

browser.ml.enable

browser.ml.chat.enabled

browser.ml.chat.menu

browser.ml.chat.page

browser.ml.chat.page.footerBadge

browser.ml.chat.page.menuBadge

browser.ml.linkPreview.enabled

browser.ml.pageAssist.enabled

browser.tabs.groups.smart.enabled

browser.tabs.groups.smart.userEnabled

extensions.ml.enabled

in addition to nuking AI, it’ll also speed up your browsing

Prince whose noblest knight keeps insisting that he would throw himself upon his own blade to bleed himself dry of sin should his liege request it has to reassure concerned citizens, "I've never asked him to do that."

[simon-newman]

"But you could, my liege!" the knight follows immediately.

Bonus:

Guess who just finished reading Devil Venerable Also Wants to Know

Shen Yuan would absolutely be one of the haters of the original Abusive Romance: You Are the Unchanging One in My Heart, if the book had ended up in his universe in my heart it did

Maybe I'll draw a part 2 of SQQ and WRE bonding over their respective adventures and having partners who almost went crazy after they "died"

This is partially propaganda for all the SVSSS fans out there, READ DVAWTK 🫵🫵

The tribes of Tumblr appeared to worship Apollo as their primary patron deity, most often under the epithet Apollo Spairahemon ("Apollo the Ball-Thrower") as a god of prophecy and sport. His name was typically invoked to celebrate a user blessed with uncommon prescience. Moments of prophecy were considered highly sacred and were often recorded, and such texts are sometimes accompanied by an artistic depiction of the god — either his traditional masculine image or, unusually, in the form of a young woman, which appears to have been an earlier style before a conservative shift toward more conventional iconography — preparing to cast a round rubber ball that our scholars believe was used in the sport known as "dodge ball". Much as other cults regarded his arrows as bringers of disease and health, this community believed that being struck by this ball would bestow prophetic visions.

Some icons are reproduced below:

An earlier depiction (c. 2020) of Apollo as a girl clad in a simple tunic and playing with other children. Figures are smiling and the image is brightly colored, indicating a celebratory outlook toward knowledge of the future.

A later piece (c. 2022) that resembles the traditional appearance of Apollo. References to childhood and play are omitted, and the god carries a more frightening aspect; perhaps this icon represented grim omens rather than good tidings.

Oh, okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don’t know, that gaslight gatekeep girlboss meme, for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you think modern feminism has been co-opted by corporations. But what you don’t know is that that meme is not from Instagram, it's not from Twitter, it's not from Tiktok, it’s actually from Tumblr. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that in January 2021, Tumblr user missnumber1111 posted, "today's agenda: gaslight gatekeep and most importantly girlboss." And then I think it was a-m-e-t-h-y-s-t-r-o-s-e, wasn’t it, who reblogged it with an image of the phrase edited over a piece of "Live, Laugh, Love" wall art? And then gaslight gatekeep girlboss showed up in the feeds of eight different Twitter repost accounts. Then it filtered down through Instagram and then trickled on down into some tragic “alt side of Tiktok” where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that meme represents millions of notes and countless Tumblr users and so it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from Tumblr when, in fact, you’re wearing the meme that was selected for you by the people in this room. From a pile of “stuff.”

Dragons in Chinese culture are forces of good.

Dragons in The Journey to the West are forces of good but also invite demons - such as the Bull Demon King - to their underwater parties.

Cang Qiong Mountain Sect is a very important place and the fact that their peak lords have a tradition of ascending as one means that they are effectively a baby-god-producing factory and thus the peak lords and their heirs would get invited to parties because of diplomacy.

Mobei-Jun genuinely thinks he has been courting Airplane for a long time.

What I'm saying is Airplane is damned lucky to have never gotten caught at a party when he - according to CQMS - wasn't supposed to be there.

[mysteryteacup]

Additionally:

[mysteryteacup]

These events can be happening simultaneously.

[mysteryteacup]

Or Airplane might accidentally be getting a reputation as party-exploders because it just. keeps. happening.

Mobei-Jun's just annoyed his beloved's acquaintences and family keep ruining their dates.

[mysteryteacup]

Of course, just because Yue Qingyuan, Shen Qingqiu, and Shang Qinghua come from the peaks most likely to go to parties diplomatically doesn't mean those are the only peak lords/peak heirs invited to parties...

[mysteryteacup]

(Strictly speaking Prince is Wangzi 王子, not just Wang 王 which is king, but Wang is - if I understand correctly - an acceptable term when you've got an emperor or ruling parent outranking you. Let me know if I've got that wrong, and my apologies if so.)m

[mysteryteacup]

Speaking of consequences, the Lord of An Ding Peak and Shizun to Shang Qinghua is having a time.

#consider: sqh being invited to the same party both by cqms and mbj and playing collateral <- prev tags

Excellent contribution!

[mysteryteacup]

Look, it's not Qingge's fault he got involved in this. He was just innocently hunting some demons who were causing havoc and followed one of them in. He didn't even know it was a party.

The thing about Airplane when he runs into people he knows at parties he's supposedly not at/supposed to be at, is that he never makes things easier for himself:

[mysteryteacup]

Unrelatedly: the reblogs have made a necklace!

[mysteryteacup]

Hey, @many-eyed-monster , this inspired me. 😅

[mysteryteacup]

It's important to remember that while Airplane is an anxious coward, he's also a trolling millennial obnoxious piece of shite (affectionate).

ya know, I'm a big fan of roleswap aus for SVSSS, ya know, with disciple SY and shizun Binghe. The thing I've noticed, however, is they never have Binghe purposefully shove SY into the abyss.

I've seen it as a qi deviation and as SY shoving himself in, but I think SY should get the full Binghe treatment.

Here's what I'm thinking;

Luo Binghe is a Demon Lord and a Peak Lord, his climb to power underhanded and bloody, a boy broken by the world, trying to get back his own.

Not as severe as Bingge did in PIDW, this one never had a teacher to crush his dreams of being a religious cultivator, I think.

In this version of PIDW, Shen Jiu is Binghe's treacherous disciple, constantly sabotaging his fellow students and leaching on any woman who came in within two feet of him. He was a pitiful street rat who came to Cang Qiong sect during the test and Binghe's close friend Ling Yingying took pity on and convinced Binghe to let him onto his peak.

He discovers his Shizun is a half demon during the IAC and taunts him, threatening to reveal his identity to the entire cultivator world. In response, Luo Binghe tosses Shen Jiu into the Abyss.

Shen Jiu returns five years later, wielding the demon sword, Xin Mo, coming to wreck his Shizun. Luo Binghe is able to defeat his wayward disciple and claim Xin Mo from him. He then proceeds to have truckloads of nasty sex about it.

Shen Yuan dies cursing the lost potential, as Shen Yuan often does, and is reborn as Shen Jiu, fresh off a qi deviation following one of the harsher punishments Shen Jiu never seemed to learn from.

He goes out of his way to make himself indispensable and undeniably good, as soon as he can get his ooc lock off. In the skinner demon equivalent, Shen Yuan finds himself saddled with a newfound realization that he's 1) gay, 2) gay for Luo Binghe.

Which is the worst realization Shen Yuan could have at this moment, which is exactly why he's having it. Because I want him to suffer. He now has to grapple with his sexuality, who he's into, and what who he's into might do to him, if he fails to change the plot.

He manages to change a lot (saves head disciple Liu Qingge and what not) and grow incredibly close to Binghe (sharing the bamboo hut, sharing meals... isn't this stuff Binghe would do with his first wife Ling Yingying? Could... could that mean..?!) by the time the IAC is coming.

Shen Yuan sees his master's facade be revealed and... Luo Binghe is no innocent child here. He's a man who has hurt so many people to get where he is with minimal regret. Can he really trust one person, a boy who has made him feel alive for the first time, when he's lived a life that's proven trust is a lie?

He decides he can't. Despite Shen Yuan insisting and pleading that he won't tell Luo Binghe's secret to anyone, Binghe tosses him into the abyss.

When Shen Yuan climbs out, early, he is not angry. He... he gets it! Really he does! He's not mad, shut up, Xin Mo, Shizun Binghe, really, he's- why are you running.
