HORROR BOOKS STICKER SHEETS
(I did the designs and colour tests, but the amazing wonderful beautiful and talented @luposlipaphobya coloured them! I'll be selling them at YCon 2025, and on the shop later this year if any are left)
Fun facts with Wishbone
he is extremely large and blocking an intersection which is probably concerning but it's ok because it's his 30th anniversary this year and he should be the center of attention
my ducks? in a row. the elephant? addressed. my goose? cooked. my eggs? in several baskets. the bigger fish? fried.
Your monkeys ?
those aren’t mine.
writing isn’t hard it’s just emotionally devastating and time-consuming and requires full body possession by an idea
you say 'full body possession by an idea' like it's a bad thing

I bet her duel deck is fucking insane.
Finally got a Switch 2 and the new Hyrule Warriors. I'm trying to take my time with it, but dang I forgot just how much I love the gameplay loop. I'm 8 hours in and only just unlocked Raphica.
I have so many thoughts and feelings about the story so far. We all know Nintendo plays fast and loose with fine details, and they wanted players to jump into Tears of the Kingdom without feeling obliged to play Breath of the Wild (god forbid), but just once I wish they'd do some proper continuity, because BoTW/HW:AoC/TotK/HW:AoI is perfect for it.
Like, Zelda is all "LiGhT??" in the beginning, and I'm basically screaming for her to remember that she has Goddess powers, which is normally portrayed through golDEN LIGHT???? The biggest tension between her and her father was the fact she couldn't unlock her Goddess powers--this is a basic BotW/TotK Zelda fact! No HW: Age of Calamity needed! So why is she playing dumb?! Thankfully, we got a little nod to her struggles and her mother... but hello???? The biggest character growth is just thrown out for "Huh? Light? I have power?"
I get the Ganondorf stuff. Like Sonia said, the future should remain unknown. Fair. But Zelda still acts as if she never met the guy. Um, did she forget she spent 100 years in holy containment fighting off Calamity Ganon???? She had six months after Ganondorf came to the castle. Surely she watched him, maybe swayed some of Hyrule's knights to keep a closer watch on him and increase their guard around Raura and Sonia, or even intercept Ganondorf's messages. She's a royal in her own time! She knows all about political spying! She could've taken precautions. There was plenty she could do behind the scenes without telling Rauru or Sonia about the future.
I guess my biggest complaint about Age of Imprisonment is how quickly Zelda forgets her Goddess roots. She's at the birth of her kingdom. Where's her curiosity for sacred texts? Why doesn't she pray at the springs or ask if they're even holy sites yet? Surely Sonia, a Hylian priestess according to TotK's stone tablets, would have something to say. Zelda didn't exactly exhaust all of her options trying to get home.
Just saw someone say they wrote their thesis on fairy tale retellings and that Wicked (the book) is the only feminist fairy tale retelling that does it right. And when I challenged them on that and said it was sort of insane to say that a male author is the only one to ever get feminism right in a genre basically spearheaded by Angela Carter (and Tanith Lee, Caitlin R. Kiernan, Holly Black etc etc) they then admitted they had not read Angela Carter.
Tumblr is a website.
okay i was going to keep this in the tags but to say any text is the ONLY piece that does something well is such a weird take to me. like by all means, argue what you want, use textual evidence to say (for example) here is how wicked by gregory macguire is feminist. im not familiar enough with the text to argue either way. but to claim it is THE ONLY text to do something well and not have read other texts,,,, like those texts would then need to be part of your argument.
uhhhh yeah i hate this
HOW DO YOU DO A (I'm assuming literature/English-focused) THESIS ON FEMINIST FAIRY TALE RETELLINGS AND NOT INCLUDE ANGELA CARTER???? How did their professor/editor greenlight that paper?! By not including one of the foremost scholars of feminist fairy tale retellings, that student/author has proven they have zero credibility to write on that subject!
But also lol that Maguire is the "only one" to get it right. Maguire did a lot of things in Wicked, and sure there are some feminist themes, but that's a huge opening for critics to attack and I hope the professor/editor pointed that out.

context explaining why the announcer is screaming, this is supposed to take a high level competitive agility dog 40 seconds
This video makes me cry every time it’s on my dash and I can’t even iterate why.
Like the dog doesn’t even know it’s a competition and she’s made history. She(?) just is happy and knows she made her owner happy too.

Following you has really changed my perception on what is normal sex ed to know because i just went on twt(mistake) and was struck by "[cis bc terf] lesbians have inherently safe sex and telling them to use protection is forcing hetero shit on them" girl the stds
sorry hang on they're saying it's heteronormative to. have protected sex ?????
everybody knows that regardless of your genitals you can get STIs in your mouth and throat right. please tell me you all know that.
You Can Get A Gonorrhea Infection In Your Throat
gay guy i knew also thought you didnt need protection for oral. got mad at me when i explained.
I'm not even a little sorry but if you're not using protection youre fucking nasty. And definitely have something. Get tested.
okay so what we're not going to do is stigmatize people who may not even be informed about safer sex practices. shame is not and has never been an effective way of encouraging positive behavior changes. people who have sexually transmitted infections are not nasty, they're people in need of medical care.
