One way to get tasks done in the day is to make yourself a Chekhov's List. Put all of the things you have to do on a list, and now that they've been revealed they'll need to be completed by the afternoon (third act) and when you've completed something you can Chekov that task from the list

I don't know who needed to hear this today but this is your reminder that Polonius 👏 From 👏 Hamlet 👏 Is 👏 Not 👏 An 👏 Idiot. Is he a genius? No. Does he think he's way smarter than he actually is? Yes. Does he love to run on at the mouth? Yes. But if you actually listen to what he's saying, listen to his speech to Laertes, especially, especially listen to his speech to Reynaldo, he's dumb like the fox. He's getting older now, but I think he was very good at gathering information for most of his life. And his actions reflect this. His telling Ophelia to dump Hamlet... It's patriarchy, obviously, and he's coming at it from a place of selfishness, his reputation, but the observation itself never seemed ridiculous to me. Like if I were Ophelia's friend I would also be telling her "you know he can't marry you right? You know he's gonna have to marry a princess? You know if he gets you pregnant you're totally fucking screwed right? Are you being careful? Do you promise you're being careful?" He's also... on Hamlet's trail you know? "Though this be madness; there's method in it." I think it's a better story if Polonius isn't a bumbling idiot but instead is a competent but aging advisor. It adds a layer of threat to story if Hamlet isn't running laps around a total idiot, but deftly staying ahead of a smart man who is sniffing him out.

Bear religion probably fucking rocks. You're a fucking bear, you're the deadliest thing on earth, once a year an endless supply of salmon just flings itself up the river to gorge on and then you nap for 3 months.

The most delicious food in the world is protected by tiny demons who can defend it from everyone except you. Your natural armor is thick enough that you can just eat the damn hive while they buzz around you. God's chosen animals right there

Regular bears tell stories of angel bears sent by the Bear God, pure white and twice as strong as any normal bear could be, who rule the summit of the Earth and kill all who stand in their path.

And they are right, those bears exist and totally do that. Humans just have fake angels as a cope.

love the idea of bears being the chosen species actually. having a near death experience and glimpsing heaven and realising it's just full of bears, no humans at all, humans not ensouled actually, humans an accidental byproduct of God's plan for bears
