you ever get assigned something as a project in school and for the rest of your life you have a strange attachment to the subject. in like seventh grade i had an assignment to make a poster about the elemental propoerties of osmium and to this day everytime someone mentions it im like 'YEAAAAAAH OSMIUM MENTIONED!!!!!!!!'

I love scam calls that are easily verifiably false. “Your mortgage is about to default.” Cool 👍 I don’t have one of those

I am actually so serious I think it really messes with a childs creativity and joy to tell them to never make a mary sue OC. Like that unbridaled form of joy where you make a self insert OC who super cool and everyone loves them and they have every superpower in the world SHOULD be something a kid makes, it nourishes their ability to create things for fun and not be stifled by "oh but what if my character is too overpowered and cringey...". whatever

[novas-grimoire]

You know what?

I'm gonna add to this.

It stifles adult's creativity too.

Don't put restrictions on people's creativity.

That Mary-Sue OC you made as a child? That's a template for a well rounded character. Develop that shit. Flesh them out. Make them even better. Figure out what superpowers they really need and what ones are just extra. Let the character grow with you.

But you won't have that template to work off of if you were told not to make it.

Also, let people have power fantasies. Let that bullied isolated kid have an OC who's super powerful and surrounded by friends.

Let people tell stories, for fuck's sake.

We need to have places like bars where instead of only 18+ year olds allowed in it’s ONLY people who had fucked up childhoods so we can joke about it without running into a surprise normal who gets all sad and weird

[teaboot]

One time in college I was joking around with a classmate and she told me “I’m gonna beat you with a stick” and I was like “Dad? 🥺” and she got all shocked and shit. Like no you don’t understand, that was hilarious. I was hilarious

Felt like pouring a fine aged brandy down a toilet tbh

"empowering women by sending katy perry to space for 2 minutes" shut the fuck up. samantha cristoforetti was the first female commander of the international space station and she became an astronaut because of star trek. and there is a real chance she is a kirk/spock shipper

when you go to bed significantly earlier than usual, a little menu should pop up asking if you want Wake Up Early or More Sleep. and then you should get what you requested. that's my human body UI improvement for the day.

i had a dream about a meme that said “your third eye is open but your chakras ain’t ready for these titties 👅” and a completely incomprehensible picture

what does that mean

[beeapocalypse]

That’s just a picture of tiddies if you all your chakras were open you’d be able to see it

In another life I’m sitting in a town square rambling about nonsense no one cares about but me while being listened to by a small but loyal group of followers who will, from then on, be known as the disappointments of their generationally wealthy families because they spend their time listening to my useless Ted talks instead of spending their lives doing things “worthwhile” like continuing the family business they hate or something

I’ve been thinking a lot about the idea that a lot of iconophiles were female because icons could be worshipped in the domestic sphere which was much more accessible than actual places of worship. I couldn’t tell you why I’ve been thinking about it, I just have
