Me neither. I only listen to podcasts, and the dark prophecies delivered to me by forgotten gods in the dead of night, and sometimes Oingo Boingo.

"Newt," you say, "You mean to tell me there's country-influenced-on-occasion-but-generally-too-genre-defying-to-really-classify folk pop music written by a mentally ill, disabled, queer woman that articulates trauma and the joy of recovery in sincere, brilliant, and sometimes silly ways?"

look i don't know how reliable a source of information this website is but the idea that you can easily get rid of vampires in your home just by telling them they're not welcome anymore is extremely funny to me

if a vampire came into my house and tried to drain my blood. well i would simply say no thank you.

unless the vampire is hot of course, in which case feel free to make yourself at home

Whoa, I didn’t realize that it was so deliberate, I honestly thought it was unconscious

Scary, scary.

Gonna add on to this: From the other side of the bar, I see this crap all the time. Seriously. I work at a high-density bar, and let me tell you, I have anywhere from 10-20 guys every night come up and tell me to, “serve her a stronger drink, I’m trying to get lucky tonight, know what I mean?” usually accompanied with a wink and a gesture at a girl who, in my experience, is going to go from mildly buzzed to definitively hammered if I keep serving her. Now, I like to think I’m a responsible bartender, so I usually tell guys like that to piss off, and, if I can, try to tell the girl’s more sober friends that they need to keep an eye on her. But everyone- just so you know, most of the time, when someone you don’t know is buying you a drink, they’re NOT doing it out of a sense of cordiality, they’re buying you a drink for the sole purpose of making you let your guard down. So:

Tips for getting drinks-

1. ALWAYS GO TO THE BAR TO GET YOUR OWN DRINK, DO NOT LET STRANGERS CARRY YOUR DRINKS. This is an opportune time for dropping something into your cocktail, and you’re none the wiser.

2.IF YOU ORDER SOMETHING NON-ALCOHOLIC, I promise you, the bartender doesn’t give two shits that you’re not drinking cocktails with your friends, and often, totally understands that you don’t want to let your guard down around strangers. Usually, you can just tell the bartender that you’d like something light, and that’s a big clue to us that you’re uncomfortable with whomever you’re standing next to. Again, we see this all the time.

3. If you’re in a position to where you feel uncomfortable not ordering alcohol:

Here’s a list of light liquors, and mixers that won’t get you drunk, and will still look like an actual cocktail:

X-rated + sprite = easy to drink, sweet, and 12% alcoholic content. Not strong at all, usually runs $6-$8, depending on your state.

Amaretto + sour= sweet, not strong, 26%.

Peach Schnapps+ ginger ale= tastes like mellow butterscotch, 24%.

Melon liquor (Midori, in most bars) + soda water = not overly sweet, 21%

Coffee liquor (Kahlua) +soda = not super sweet, 20%.

Hope this helps someone out!

Backing this up from years of bar tending.

i’m reading this book on bronze age clothing (highly recommend to any worldbuilders btw because clothing is so fundamental and yet takes so much work) and it pointed out something valid: colourful clothing and clothing as status is more of a Thing where animal fibers, such as wool or silk, are in use

and now i’m wondering about how that applies to tamriel. we know that the dunmer use silk , nords and bretons probably use wool, but what races used predominantly plant fibers? imperials, redguards, khajiit? what dyes were used? what do the altmer use to make clothing?

fantasy writers please think about your textiles ffs 

Avatar

redguards probably favor linen and silk, most likely imported since so much of hammerfell and yokuda is/was desert. 

i bet the khajiit are a MAJOR user and exporter of plant fibers in general, although i bet there’s plantations in morrowind, as well. 

if you consider only the cyrodiil we know from the games, it seems likely most of their textiles are imported, no doubt from elsweyr (cotton, linen, hemp, jute, etc), high rock (wool), and morrowind (silk). there’s sheep and flax, sure, but as far as i remember, there aren’t that many sheep and all/most of the flax is wild.

i bet the altmer wear mostly silk and other plant fibers, either homegrown or imported from the mainland. but i’m far from an expert on altmer, lol. maybe they use some special magical dawn textiles made from their ancestor’s tears.

bosmer use almost exclusively wool, leather, and silk. green pact and all.

i feel like traditionally, argonians don’t tend to wear much in the way of clothing, maybe just leather and scales and bones and stuff. it’s only from interaction/colonization from other cultures that they really started wearing stuff. almost all of it is imported, due to the agriculturally-unfriendly conditions in most of black marsh. i bet their clothes are generally a mix of dunmer, imperial, and traditional styles.

orcs are kind of like argonians. the major difference is the fact that orcs are spread across the continent, with a homeland that’s almost always in flux. orcs either 1) wear whatever the locals wear, 2) wear mostly leather and wool (stronghold orcs), or 3) wool and imported plant-based textiles (orsinium).

This was in my psychology book. I thought it might be useful to those who can’t think if gender-neutral terms.

Finally I see something going against the implied language that suggests the male gender is the default gender, illustrated by “man-made, mankind” etc,

ooooh I hope dis true
