being a MCYT fan in August 2026 is one amazing announcement after another... bro I'm so excited

love that the entirety of Pantheon SMP is a bunch of weirdos who don't realize that they're all completely strange

one of my favorite this american life segments of late is about the people who played orchestra pit for phantom of the opera on broadway and how, like, a sizeable majority of them had literally been playing the show since it opened in 1988 (on broadway. I know it opened in 86 on the west end, you random pedants, but I am specifically talking about broadway musicians) because their contracts stipulated that they'd have jobs throughout the show's entire run... but nobody anticipated that phantom would become the longest-running broadway show of all time.

and none of these people wanted to walk away from a guaranteed job, so very few of them ever quit. they just kept doing the same show eight nights a week... for twenty or thirty years... and by the time it finally closed last year most of these musicians (who had been working together for DECADES) hated each other and really really fucking loathed phantom. I can't stop thinking about it. it's indescribably hellish to imagine but also the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life.

can you imagine.

[ID: excerpt from an article reading: One of my favorite stories, which should drive anyone who has every played in a band crazy-- there’s this bassoon player who has sat next to the same clarinet player since 1988. She’s convinced he plays half a note4 flat on every note he’s every played. He denies this. /]

I remember listening to this episode! It was fun. Highly recommend especially if you're a band/orchestra nerd!

To add onto our earlier “self diagnosis is valid” rant…

I also want to remind everyone that self diagnosis is valid because Black people will get “diagnosed” with “Oppositional Defiant Disorder” at the drop of a hat, but especially if they’re autistic. Autistic. Fucking autistic. I have a friend who is literally the sweetest man in existence. Family man, absolute nerd who works in IT, obsessed with cartoons and will cry over a dog. Very clearly on the spectrum (we say that as someone on the spectrum). Did he get diagnosed with autism? Nope. Oppositional Defiant Disorder. I want you to look up the “symptoms” of that disorder and look me in my eyes and tell me that’s not racism.

Self diagnosis is fucking valid because our health care system is fucking broken, beyond the cost and shitty insurance. Do not hitch your entire existence in mental health to this kind of a system, because it will betray you at some point. I’m not saying don’t get help. But just remember to be so careful bowing to our fascist mental health overlords.

Rooney, out.

it's march 5th, which is dissociative identity awareness day!! i seldom talk about being plural on here, but i am, and i've had this comic idea for quite a while now... i have P-DID, which is a label under the OSDD umbrella that not many people know about! i think these little infographics can be helpful to anyone who might be questioning or newly-realizing/diagnosed as plural, i know talking to other systems was one of the things that helped me out the most when i was learning all this stuff about myself. hopefully it might help you, too- or maybe you'll just get to learn something new!

the colors here are from this flag, just with a few adjustments to make it work better for something like a comic. i'll also link my sources under the cut, for anyone interested in reading more!

reblogs are appreciated!

SOURCES: https://pluralpedia.org/w/Partial_Dissociative_Identity_Disorder https://www.isst-d.org/publications-resources/public-resources-home/fact-sheet-iv-what-are-the-dissociative-disorders/ https://icd.who.int/browse/2025-01/mms/en#988400777 (as a note, i don't particularly like the language used in the ICD-11. i think presenting any form of dissociative disorder as inherently alarming and destructive, especially toward anyone other than the plural individual themself, is... questionable, at best. but it's the most official and academic source i can provide on the matter, so i figured i'd include it. i much prefer pluralpedia as a source for learning about these things- it's made by and for systems, and the language used is a lot more focused on the individual(s)!)

"Do you really have to make being plural your whole personality??"

I'm gonna hold your hand when I tell you this

Putting all the dancing vampires together in one place :3

[lyric-wing]

Genuinely what is up with people (both the fandom and the cast/their friends) referring to powcreations by saying "owen"??? Like Owen isn't the only owner of pow, if your going to say names say both of them??

"Haha owen got tired of the cast outsmartung the script so he made pantheon so they ahve to die"

Owen isn't the only one who made pantheon?? And iirc, apo was the one who came up with the concept and pitched it to owen??

Like wtf is happen why are we pretending like apo doesn't exist hello?

how many tons of cement would we need to fill in Silicon Valley, hypothetically speaking

[transhumanisticpanspermia]

enough that if you poured it all at once, the exothermic curing reaction would also succeed in melting it

[conceptblogfromaconcepthuman]

so we do it very slowly then

[transhumanisticpanspermia]

no, you misunderstand, that’s the point. if we pour it quickly, the core of the concrete mass will become molten, along with everything trapped within. we won’t just be burying silicon valley. we’ll be melting it. we will erase it from history, so no foolish future civilization will ever have to face the grim possibility of accidentally unearthing it.

tens of thousands of years from now, when the molten core of concrete, metal, glass, and horrible tech industry culture solidifies into an unrecognizable mass, we will be able to safely mine it to reclaim the metals, which will have conveniently sorted themselves by density.

Imagine if politicians actually cared about the health and well-being of the people, instead of feeding corporate greed.

All our lives would be better.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

[striving-artist]

The best piece of advice I ever got was not meant as advice, but as an edict. If I was going to threaten people as a joke, it had to be so far out of proportion with what happened that it would be obvious I was joking. This changed how I expressed frustration with others. It then changed how I expressed frustration with myself.

Not “I’m going to hit you” but “I am going to buy a tuna sub from the gas station and hide it under the seat of your car”

Not “I’m going to kill myself” but “I am going to walk into the desert and let the scarabs take me”

The other side then happened. When I mess something up, instead of saying it’s bad and perpetuating negative thoughts, swing hard the other way.

Not “this art is terrible” but “this shall be framed and mounted on the wall in my museum exhibition as testament to the suffering I had to overcome”

Have been doing this since high school. It was my drama teacher who asked me to please stop scaring the actors. The other half of the edict was that I had to say it in a polite tone, and end it with either please or thank you.

Life changing. 10/10 Mr Muëller. Highly reccomend.

Which means you saw this, could have told me, but instead, you chose this course. You chose violence. I'll be adding you to the list of traitors to be embroidered in the tapestry of my throne room.

I know people mean well when they try to argue against arophobes with the argument of "We don't feel romantic attraction, but aros can still love their friends and family!" Or argue that "Aces can still feel romantic love and want relationships!" as a response to acephobes.

But please don't. It's technically correct, but also a terrible response in that situation. Judging a person's worth by their capacity to love, in any type of way, is dehumanizing. Not everyone feels love, or even strong emotions in general, and it doesn't make them a bad person. Same as feeling love doesn't automatically make one a good person.

Tl,dr: We shouldn't try to prove our worth by arguing how "normal" or how similar to allos we are
