husband just reminded me of that time years ago when we were running a co-op farm in stardew valley

after we got married in-game it did the thing it does and asked us if we wanted to have a baby

we were like yeah sure why not, we're not having kids irl so may as well have a cute lil' virtual baby that costs us nothing and we can turn into a dove at any time

like the very next day we got that super rare 0.8% chance event that we had NO CLUE ABOUT where a freaking alien capsule drops on your farm in the middle of the night and the next day it's like shattered and whatever was inside is running loose

and we just froze and looked at each other like "??? is this our baby???" 😭😔

[genericpuff]

especially not one about me and my husband's stardew valley alien baby

cease this behavior at once

Historically, one of the most reliable sources of widespread banditry was rulers ramping up military recruitment for major wars, then cutting their soldiers loose afterwards without pay, leaving a bunch of heavily armed men with military experience floating around broke and homeless.

Knowing this, whenever someone jokingly refers to raccoons as "trash bandits", I get a vivid mental image of, like, a raccoon succession crisis leading to a raccoon civil war, the aftermath of which forced the former soldiers of the losing side (who are all raccoons) to take up the life of the raccoon outlaw.

Yay! Palamedes and Camilla are here. Palamedes is probably marveling at an ancient skittle and Cam is taking notes and just repeating "indubitably Warden."

Amazing that we call him the cookie clicker guy and not the "this website's hate mail game is insane" guy because one of those things had a much bigger impact on Tumblr culture than the other

#I think it's nice that the thing he'a known for is something he's put a lot of work into and was passionate about#as opposed to some funny posts he made in a few minutes#would you rather be known as large for your funny posts or your books if given the choice?

I'm already known for my funny posts and not my books. People express surprise that I'm a writer constantly.

The idea that adult men and women can't ever be friends without it having an ulterior motive is misogyny and you will never convince me otherwise. If you think a man having a female friend is inappropriate or that a woman having a male friend is inappropriate then you are a misogynist.

When I'm anxious and worried about something, I've started imagining Palamedes and Ianthe fighting in my head. Palamedes is the logical side and Ianthe the emotional. It's been really effective honestly except I have to live with the fact I'm Naberius Tern

Dying as a Skill Issue

I just made a post about Ianthe's "Dying is for suckers." quote and now I realized that "Dying as a skill issue/dying as failure" is actually an essential part of her character.

In the psychogram story The Unwanted Guest she talks about it even more. She presents several deaths of known characters to Palamedes and tells him why they have died in her opinion:

Ortus did not die because Crux was an asshole and killed him, but because he was too sad.

Abigail did not die because Cytherea murdered them, but because she brought her husband to Canaan House as her cav. (This point is especially random. As if Cytherea wouldn't have slaughtered Babs as well...)

(It's by the way interesting that she doesn't mention Jeannemary and Isaac here. Maybe even she knows that that would be hella tasteless. Ooorrrr she has a different reason.)

Dying is for suckers in her opinion and dead people died because of a lack of skill.

That even partly explains why she wants to become a Lyctor (and likely a God or even more than a God) so much: Dying would be a personal failure to her.

Actually, hang on. Dulcinea says she's "not allowed" to tell Palamedes what happened to her while crossing the River. Bitch, allowed by whom??

It's not God, or Alecto, so who is out there laying down these laws?
