idk i think you should make this character's heterosexuality relevant to the narrative. i mean why are they cis if it's not servicing the plot. you can't just throw story elements in for no reason if you're gonna make an able bodied character it should really serve a purpose. like why are they white are you just trying to fill a checklist? :/

Turdus aficionados of Costa Rica please know I love your national bird but this is objectively hilarious

Hello, so I'm originally from Costa Rica and there's actually a good reason why the Yigüirro was chosen over so many other more colorful birds. All those toucans, parrots, and the like are quite beautiful but your average Costa Rican person rarely gets to see them, because they mostly live out in the rain forests and other places far away from human settlements. But Yigüirros live in towns and cities, so most folks are much more likely to see and appreciate them on a regular basis. Yigüirros have a strong, beautiful song which heralds the start of the rainy season, so you always know when one is around during that time of year. This trait has caused the Yigüirro to appear in a lot of Costa Rican literature as well. I think the fact that they were chosen over visually prettier species speaks to how the government let Costa Ricans vote on the national bird, rather than just making a declaration. Truly a bird of the people!

Having said all that, it is undeniably hilarious that there is a genus of bird named "Turdus."

Jayce as a contestant on a baking competition and Viktor as one of the cameramen who's crush might be a little obvious cos there's so much footage of Jayce just...existing. Folks watching thank the cameraman for focusing so much on Jayce cos they too have a crush on this big handsome sweetheart who keeps gushing so much about his mother and her cooking with the brightest smile on his face. It's a little concerning how much zoomed in footage there is from bread week of him just kneading the dough. Viktor pretends to have shame but he really doesn't. He thought he'd be jealous of bread dough of all things but guess there's always more things to learn about yourself

[galeceon]

i hate when you tell somebody Everything will be ok and they have a bitchy nihilistic answer. oh my god okay you can go wallow in your misery for the rest of time if you'd prefer but some of us want to be happy

[galeceon]

and yeah maybe everything wont actually be ok but you have to be willing to pretend a little or else you're just going to sit there and be a pedantic pessimistic pile of sludge forever

[homunculus-argument]

I still really can't wrap my head around the concept that it'd be physically possible to sleep too much. Like??? your body won't let you do that???? Isn't there like a hard limit on that somewhere?? Like the way your hair won't grow beyond a certain limit just because you let it, there's a cut-off range where it's just Done Growing and falls off. There's no option of your hair becoming 4 km long rapunzel-ass rope just because you neglected to cut it.

No natural part of the human body regularly needs cutting and trimming, it gets worn down in natural use. Sure your nails would grow absurdly long if you never cut them if you never use your hands or feet for anything, but if you're out there doing hunter-gatherer shit 24/7 year round then as far as I've understood they get worn down to reasonable length from just natural use??

I thought that sleep is like piss? You can't just choose to piss more than you need to piss as a conscious choice and bad habit. Nobody's walking around looking like a human raisin like "oh yeah I'm getting mummified on my feet because I just fucking love pissing so much", you get dehydrated from not drinking enough, not from pissing too much.

I can't see how you could overdo something that your body can't store for later. Sure, you can fuck up your salt ratio or whatever if you drink too much water all at once, but if you have like 3 more cups of water per day than you need, your body just pisses them out?? Fat stores are a thing because your body likes saving up the energy because there's no knowing beforehand if it might need it for later. Water isn't stored like that and neither is sleep.

The most essential defining trait of the very nature of life is that it wants to continue to live. All things that feel good are rewarded due to some mechanism that rewards behaviour that secures survival often enough to be worth the gamble. I don't see what kind of function is there in wanting to sleep more than the body requires. Like what situation is there where it's beneficial to have a mechanic that goes "hey let's shut down for prolonged times for no benefit and damage the cells and the entire organism for literally no reason."

Like why do we even have that lever?

[goldenleopard34335]

Away from your point but drinking too much water puts strain on your kidneys. I hate it the human body is so stupid

[homunculus-argument]

It's not stupid, it's just designed in a "how do we design a system that can be operated in as many incorrect ways as possible without breakind down any more than it has to" sort of way.
