oh no, no, nonononononono you don’t get to retcon the first series basically being an all white cast because now you’ve realized it’s Not A Great Look by blaming publishing standards and pretending that annabeth is presented as anything other than a blonde white girl in the text or any of the marketing material ever.

you wrote her as white! you wrote all the main characters as white and made it very clear when the secondary characters weren’t! it’s fine to admit you just had a blind spot and self-corrected with HoO and the other series!!! you don’t get to go back and retroactively collect diversity points by pretending annabeth is in any way presented as racially ambiguous in the text now that you’ve decided to make a tv show!!!! gaaaaaaaaahhhhhh

Youre supposed to interpret it as "skinny nonbinary ppl see themselves as the default state of being nonbinary and exclude fat nonbinary people constantly especially in discussions of presentation" hope that helps

Hey what the hell is homestuck. Please help

Someone asked me a few years ago, so I did my usual quick research to see what it was and make a joke. I couldn't quite figure it out at first, there were many plotlines and characters and concepts. I learned a bunch and found only more, and more. I tried reading the real thing but found it to be far too large to read in one lifetime, let alone for a factoid post. In the years since, I have learned more and more yet still know nothing. Knowing a finite portion of an infinite thing is like dividing by zero, it equals zero. I know much, but know nothing, for the amount of info required to explain Homestuck is just not possible. Even still people tell me, oh, that's a Homestuck meme but there is no rhyme nor reason as to what might be from Homestuck. No limit.

Homestuck is beyond my understanding. Maybe I'm too old. Maybe my mind just isn't solid enough to handle the weight of it. Also wtf is this thing???

Inej: Kaz, if you die, do you want to be buried or cremated? Like, if you were hit by a wagon today, what do I do?

Kaz: Go after the wagon driver and make him pay for what he did to me.

Kaz: Avenge me, Inej. Avenge me!

Inej: I found this company, and they bury you in a biodegradable sack. So when your body decomposes, it fertilizes the seeds of a fruit tree.

Inej: That's what I want. Because then you and all the people that love me can eat the fruit from my tree.

Kaz: That is fucking mental

Inej: Coming from the guy that wants me to ruin a wagon driver's life just 'cause he killed you swerving to avoid a child.

Kaz: I didn't know about the fucking child.

In the afterlife, people will be measured by how good or evil they are in their lifetime. You scored a perfect zero, without a single decimal points. According to the regulations, it’s illegal to send you to heaven or hell so nobody knows what to do now.

Before I… crack them open?

....before you put them in here:

the water cup even comes with a little needle at the bottom for hole-poking purposes, see:

sorry i meant boil not cook

WHAT IS THAT

It's an egg cooker!

It's like a toaster and an electric kettle had a baby and ...the baby boils eggs.

Even better news about German egg related gadgets… the Eierköpfer (it also has a super long German name), for when you need a guillotine to open your egg neatly

No offence to Germany but why are you guys so fucking insane

nothing to see here. Just normal feelings about egg.

Hehehe ihr habt Eier gesagt

"Why is your house the way it is?"

Landlords.

Landlords are why my house is the way it is.

The previous owner turned this house into a rental for 2-3 families at one point and did everything as cheaply and unsafely as possible for maximum capacity.

This house passed multiple inspections because they hid a multitude of plumbing, electrical and structural issues behind fake walls and a fresh sheen of landlord magnolia beige paint and shiny fixtures that looked fine (if a little dated) until you realized they were held up with the wrong type of screws, zero anchors, and gravity-defying hope.

Every time we take down a wall, we never know what we will find. Sometimes it's another wall with a sealed door that's been welded shut. Other times it is mold or asbestos that they sealed up.

But we always know it's going to be some landlord, cheap build, mind-bending fuckery.
