if you are going to do historical inaccuracy, then go big. Just take it to a whole ‘nother level.

I mean like Knight’s Tale “chanting Queen at the jousting tournament ‘foxy lady’” levels of anachronism. Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters with Hansel injecting himself with insulin and Gretel wielding a multiple-shot crossbow levels of anachronism. Go for Blazing Saddles, Blackadder, Jack of All Trades, Connecticut Yankee levels of anachronism

you either have to play by the rules or throw out the book.

Go full on Xena. All of history happened at the same time. Get your legs broken by Caesar and find out Lao Tzu didn’t write that book, his wife did, and she hitting on you…all 10 years before you go meet up with Helen at Troy. Fight with Beowulf and commission Sappho within a few months of each other. Abraham and Issac? Only like 2 years before Jesus. Invent CPR and the kite during the bronze age. Watch your gal pal teach Homer how to be a better bard. Have a fucking battle of the bands in Ancient Greece. TIME IS MEANINGLESS.

microdosing on catharsis by watching a fictional character or persona i relate to have an emotional breakdown until my chest starts to ache from the amount i've repressed

“Lol” hasn’t meant “laughing out loud” in like 15 years… it’s just a word now and more importantly it’s the perfect way to end a sentence lol

[throathole]

So true… I have never gained anything useful from tone indicators except for learning that some sentences suddenly end in a handjob

[lobotomyscars]

sorry can you repeat that. i was busy trying to make eye contact and act normal and didn't hear you

[tlirsgender]

Yknow I never finished reading the fowl twins & I really truly think it just wasn't hitting the same for me because they're too normal. Artemis Fowl was huge for the lonely 11 year old community & here come these two cunts with their reformed parents or whatever & it's lost the appeal completely. Artemis Fowl is for severely neglected preteens who feel like they were born wrong. If your y/a protag isn't fucked up what's the point

[tlirsgender]

[ID: a reply from @newgameplus that reads, "artemis still the most facinating guy in the senario too because if i took care of my mentally unstable mother for years from barely double digits while searching for my totally not dead dad and then they decided to become #normal engaged parents and have #normal well adjusted child geniuses to whom having present loving parents is a given while i was literally in another dimension fighting demons id become the joker. do-over kids when your first one is the reason any of you are alive and is standing right there. literally in front of his salad. rough." /end ID]

YEAH THAT. LIKE..... idk maybe it's because I'm Artemis but I'd kind of rather see a sequel series where he's like, present and having to reckon with whatever the fuck is going on here. Clenching his jaw trying not to relapse on being evil while his previously abusive/neglectful/absent/whatever parents act like nothing ever happened. Standing there repeating affirmations like "I am not going to kill my entire family and then myself"

[tlirsgender]

I can't even disagree that, iirc, "fucking off to live on the moon for a while and rarely contacting any of them" IS in character for Artemis. I just want to see my boy. I want to see the extremely deserved crashout preceding the decision to fuck off to live on the moon, expressing an emotion in front of his father for perhaps the first and last time in his life

ive always rly liked the idea of a member of a group of adventurers having what everyone assumes is very well trained hawk and then at the end of their journey its casually revealed that thats actually just his buddy whos a shapeshifter and just rly likes being a hawk

[munchy-k]

the guy also like thinks everyone knows bc he never tries to hide the fact that the hawk is a person but everyone assumes hes always just joking. like the others being like "damn its crazy how he knows exactly what you want him to do its like he knows english or something." and the guy is just like "well yeah thats his first language so ofc he's fluent??" and they all go "haha good one" and move on, leaving him confused

[munchy-k]

they just think hes a quirky guy that really loves his pet and says things like "the 9 of us" even tho there are clearly only 8 people! he just cares about the bird so much he counts it as a group member haha !

really good text from my sister in law

[pussyhoundspock]

joining the war on kids reading any book they want on the side of kids reading any book they want. simply you will be fine. it's even good to be confronted with things you don't understand and even find upsetting, uncomfortable and difficult. it's a surprise tool that will help you later.

literally ok so not a funny story but kind of funny? when I was nine I encountered rape in a book and I was like hey mom what’s this mean and she explained it and I was like oh. gross. and then like two weeks later a girl on the bus abruptly disclosed her csa and we were all like ????? what ???? but I was like wait hang on there’s a word for that ☝️🤓 and explained what it meant and that it was illegal and that you could talk to a teacher or my mom if it had happened to you and everyone was like ohhhhh I see I see and very somberly comforted the girl (she was safe she was removed from her home and living with my neighbor at the time so it wasn’t Urgent)

[zarohk]

And this is a perfect illustration of why it is important for kids to read or variety of things, and why abusers don’t want them to.

I'm so old i remember when people liked using Windows

[poupon]

That's because they stuck these bad boys to them

[zekedms]

Oh wow, that IS better.

[planefood]

I'd be down with more "modern witches" if they were less all about indigenous cultural appropriation and more about bubbling cauldrons and cackling into the night

"I want to reconnect with my precolonial european pagan roots" then stop selling dreamcatchers on etsy, you should be eating turnips and yodeling.

Have to keep reminding myself: "You need to put up with this shit because something you want is on the other side of it"

Also occasionally "you don't have to put up with this shit because nothing you want is on the other side of it"
