Stuff Happens

Sometime I obsess and sometimes I'm distressed. Welcome and enjoy your stay.

I started using Head and Shoulders ten years ago for itchy scalp and dandruff, and then for ten years I have not had itchy scalp and dandruff, so I thought "why do I still buy shampoo to combat itchy scalp and dandruff when I do not have itchy scalp and dandruff," so I stopped buying the shampoo for itchy scalp and dandruff and can you guess I have now? Can you predict what currently afflicts me? It's alright if you can't because apparently I fuckin couldn't either

Cutting something out of your life because you think you don't need it any more only to realize that it was in fact working as intended and preventing a problem that will return should you stop doing this is a good experiment to run periodically with something small like dandruff shampoo, lest you start to think it would be a good idea to do this with like let's say public health and the social safety net and vaccines

I had a liver transplant when I was 14 and like six months later I was chatting with my surgeon and he said “there’s gonna come a time, probably when you’re a teenager, where you’re gonna think, ‘I feel great, why am I still taking all this medication? I haven’t needed it in years.’ and you’re gonna want to stop taking all this medication. Guess what’s gonna happen then? You’re gonna go into rejection and your liver is gonna start failing, and you’re gonna be dying again, and we’re gonna have to find you another liver. So don’t do that.” And I said “why the fuck would anyone do that?” and he said “people are stupid.”

every once in a while when I get annoyed by a pharmacy or don’t wanna get out of bed to do my drugs I think “ugh, this is dumb, why do I do this?” and that conversation slams into me like a truck and I remember that I am, in fact, stupid

A lot of adulthood is shouting “AUGH MY LAUNDRY” hours after you put it in the washer/dryer and running to go fetch it

oh don’t mind me i’m just thinking about Percy’s gun in acid, being held back by his friends beneath the castle he grew up in, Vax fist-bumping Scanlan who’s hiding on Grog’s shoulders, everyone rejoicing as they see this newfound evil deity release their friend

vs Fjord’s sword in lava, bleeding from what he’s done, standing alone in the darkness in a mountain far, far from home, having to go wake someone up to tell them that he’s finally let go of this evil deity who has been hanging over the entire group for months

I wanted to draw a comic of this scene but my monkey brain told me to just full on animate it instead

I’m just thinking about other avatars who interacted with/heard about Jon in S2 learning about the things he’s done in S4 like

Imagine their last impression of Jon was hearing about him from Jude Perry and then they start hearing things like

“Jonathan Sims rescued someone from the Buried”

“Jonathan Sims destroyed a creation of the Dark by Seeing it. And lived.”

“Jonathan Sims forced a statement out of Peter Lukas and then killed him. In the Lonely. And then walked right out of it again.”

and they’re just sitting there picturing S2 Jon and going “I’m sorry wHAT-”

The Magnus Archives is like the polar opposite of the shows and stories that are meant to be lighthearted but if you do any amount of thinking about the implications of their worldbuilding it quickly becomes utterly horrifying. 

A physical manifestation of fear let a guy live for like a solid week because he thought that hiding under a blanket would protect him and the fear entity decided to respect that as long as he was sufficiently worried about the situation. A group of things pretending to be human are forced to take an anatomy course, presumably because they were doing such a bad job at it.

i know everyone likes making fun of percy but honestly he’s such a young adult mood. Homeboy runs from the destruction of his home and lapses into a godawful depression. sure. I mean, that’s pretty valid, right? then he straight-up “doesn’t remember” the next bunch of years and when he wakes up he’s on a boat and his hair is white. weird, but I guess what else are you gonna do? THEN while still on a random boat he has a passing dream about a demon or whatever and he more-or-less reasonably thinks “well, it’s just a dream.” except for some reason he has some blueprints in his head? so he follows them. why the fuck not, right? we’ve all had great ideas while unconscious. And so he builds the first gun in fantasy land without even knowing what a gun is and runs off to get revenge or whatever and is subsequently instantly caught and tortured but WAIT it’s okay because the wall just blew up and in comes a beautiful half-elf lady who takes one look at him and is like “well alright let’s get you out” and honestly who would say no to that?

and by that point, two years later when smoke just straight-up starts pouring out of his body it’s really not surprising that he’s just like yep. yep, sure. that’s fine.
