The thing about the moon is maybe you don’t need to write a poem about the moon. The moon’s been done, we’ve discussed it. It’s a coin a mirror an eye a lantern in the darkness. It’s a rock in space. It’s the dang moon we’ve all seen it! Is there something you can notice that’s is more surprising than the moon???

'Why does every nonbinary person want top surgery' I dunno maybe because having visible breasts immediately makes everyone assume you're female and only female, and therefore put you into a binary. Also why are you assuming every nonbinary person has breasts.

[catilinussy]

I think people who believe that should also put some thought into whether every nonbinary person with breasts actually wants top surgery, or whether they've just decided that the nonbinary people with breasts who want to keep them don't "count" as nonbinary.

The reason you can't be the next J R R Tolkien isn't because you don't have the talent, but because you're not the right kind of unwell. Tolkien wasn't bent for fantasy worldbuilding; he was bent for constructed languages, and got into fantasy worldbuilding in order to provide a material context in which to ground the notional evolution of the languages he invented. If you want to be the next Tolkien, you can't start with the worldbuilding; you've gotta find something extremely specific to fixate on, and develop it in such depth that inventing a world to contain it is genuinely the most logical next step.

[prokopetz]

#the best route is clearly to get really into a specific kink scenario and invent a world to justify it (via @salix03)

That's not even a joke. Developing a kink scenario so elaborate and so excruciatingly particular that it can only properly be contemplated in the frame of a world created specifically to contain it is genuinely closer to Tolkien's actual creative process than 99% of the stuff that plays at being heir to his legacy.

sometimes people experiencing psychosis and/or mania will come up to you on the street and talk in confusing or upsetting ways. your job is to either have a regular human-to-human conversation with that person or politely leave. your job is not to call 911. do not call 911. you might kill that person if you call 911.

[wheelie-sick]

I don't even have the energy to screenshot and respond to your tags- what the actual fuck is wrong with you? "the cops are scared and rightfully so" "mental health calls are the scariest for cops" OH so this isn't about the safety of psychotic & manic people this is about piggy feelings?

and no, actually, this is not USA specific and no, actually, people from other countries should not ignore this post. police violence and sanism weren't invented in the US and they are certainly not unique to here. if you (or anyone) thinks that this bullshit doesn't happen elsewhere then you are not listening.

Fenris with purple!Hawke is so fitting for him.

NOT because it's an "opposites attract" situation. I actually don't really think they're "opposites attract" all that much. They're fitting because FENRIS IS ALSO HILARIOUS.

Sometimes Fenris gets watered down to this "brooding grump" who doesn't want to be here, and his interactions with Hawke sound like every sentence out of their mouth winds up with him rolling his eyes. And while he probably does roll his eyes from time to time it ignores the fundamental fact that HE IS SO FUCKING FUNNY AS WELL.

Fenris does, and has always, cracked jokes and it's something way too many people ignore.

His dry humour is my favourite thing about him. Because it feels like a man who has finally be able to feel safe enough to actually crack jokes and find his sense of humour again. His interactions with Isabela, Aveline, Varric, and yes even Hawke, are filled with him being sarcastic or witty or even silly. SILLY! He's SO silly!

Him talking about Varric's beard falling to his chest because "all dwarves have them", so where's his? him coyly asking if Aveline will change patrols around his house with a smug "Eventually" when she says she knows he was going to ask. Him saying to Anders "I will happily sow your mouth shut" when they talk about Qunari customs in a sarcastic tone (tho how sarcastic he's really being is a matter for debate) him hilariously entertaining "fisting" because Isabela realised he'd make a great pickpocket.

And of course..."Hawke stepped in the poopy" line. THIS MAN IS SILLY AS FUCK.

And that moment during one of your first talks with him. You pick the purple hawke option and he just...smiles. no dialogue, no brooding comment, the camera just... pans to him smiling so genuinely I wonder if he didn't fall in love a little then.

Because he can't HELP but enjoy Hawke's humour. He can't help but smile. Can't help the awkward laugh he let's out when you first flirt with him, which was such a sharp contrast from the "I hate you all, I was a slave" first impression we get. And he can't help but joke in return.

He MATCHES Purple Hawke. And it feels like a secret little side story of a man who's known nothing but running, killing, and survival being able to just...exist in safety long enough he rekindles a personality he's not been allowed to show in a long time. When was the last time he had a group of friends to joke around with? The last time he met someone he trusted enough to just...smile and laugh with? Invite them over for wine to tell stories and be...happy?

Cause that's what he wants in the end. To be happy. Just for a little while. And in Kirkwall he got that.

When you get more objective about the way nature is & away from weird anthropomorphic carnivore slander it is a little funny when the baby sea turtles hatch and every other animal in like a ten mile radius goes "oh fuck yum one million mini sliders"

[tlirsgender]

[ID: a screenshot of the original post's tags that read, "#real turtleheads know this is a play on sliders (turtle emoji) which are a type of terrestrial turtle. but it's also tiny hamburgers #which seems apt. #this has been another episode of Joke Explainer" /end ID]

Keeping these actually. Necessary footnote for this post

Watching a jaguar casually walk up to an adult sea turtle headed back to the water after laying her eggs and eat it like why am I in my sea turtle violence era and why are they like this. Adult sea turtles aren't especially easy to eat in the water they'll swim around with shark bites taken out of them like they're just chillin. And then on land they just kinda

Jaguar watching a sea turtle on the beach: oh fuck yum 100 pound slider

[tlirsgender]

Also today I learned that since the jaguar scares off other smaller predators it's actually good for the sea turtle population if there are jaguars there. Cause less babies get eaten by Everything Else. I'm gonna be honest I didn't even consider that a jaguar could be on the beach

12 years on and still the best articulation ever made of how one should respond to useless critiques

[superchat]

there was a great study a few years that went into the whole "ppl online are bigger jerks than irl cuz theres a virtual wall and no repercussions" and the researchers were expecting to see that be the case but it turns out that people who were really angry or argumentative online were also found to just be assholes in person and people who were pretty patient and nice online were found to be patient and nice in real person as well

and it just debunked that whole cynical idea that people will naturally be mean if theres no punishment for it

[superchat]

source another source

the researchers found that being online didnt make people more hostile, but that being online allowed already hostile people to dominate forum conversations, and the less aggressive people were much less likely to reply or engage, ending in just the aggressive people bickering at eachother
