If I had a nickel for each ad that asserted to me “you’re not an x, you’re a man” (despite youtube knowing for a fact I am… not a man) Imd have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

Unfortunately my story makes more sense now. This is nominally good. I no longer rely on quite as cosmic a coincidence, I’ve closed a “why did the Devil not escape hell” plothole, and the story is beginning to coalesce around a central hazard, which gives me a whole book to explain the various worldbuilding elements around it bc it is pretty complicated.
However, Elise no longer backwards long jumps out of hell. Which is a tragedy.
I do not like and will not support new Harry Potter content but if I see anyone badmouthing those children it’s block on sight. The extent to which you can meaningfully fault a child actor for the franchise in which they were cast is zilch. Adult actors, we can hold to a higher standard but these children deserve no hate.
There is air, under my shoulder blade. I can feel it and it hurts. How do I get it out.
Instead of “Ladies and Gentlemen” I say “Guys Gays Ghouls Gilgamesh”. The four genders. (However, only one person *really is* Gilgamesh; that’s why it’s singular. However many people identify as Gilgamesh, all but one if them are wrong)
Which one are you
I’m a Guy
I’m a Gay
I’m a Ghoul
I’m 100% sure the one Gilgamesh is me
Pros of going to sleep: I will stop being sleepy, it will be easier to wake in the morning, I will feel better in general kinda, will get a better grasp on anything I try to do or integrate (learn/read/listen to) in the morning
Cons: it feels like the thing I’m supposed to do and I don’t wanna commit to being good cause that’s hard
Youtube is serving me ads exclusively in French now. Idk why, my viewing and search habits haven’t changed. But it is very interesting to see the varying levels of effort companies put into their dubs.
AU where the Grinch hears the Whos singing “so long as we have hands to clasp” and decides he will spend the rest of the year getting really good at amputation instead of learning anything.
