"-if I told you this was not the first time I've played D&D on curb next to a parking lot!

Long you have journeyed through the mythic realms, through forests deep, caverns old, to arrive at the Valley of the Sun! (people laugh) LOL, big LOL. |It is in the dead of night, dawn has not yet come, and from an ancient sarcophagus lines with runes, you see rising from the mist, the vampiric form of John Strahd! (people laugh) CEO of Ravenloft Studios. (people boo)

He arises, (gasps), and you see behind him the vast collected treasures, artifacts, and magical items, all taken from the fine hands of your fellow wizards, bards, artificers. A massive horn like that of an ancient dragon!

He stands, "Ahh, adventurers brave. Defeating you will be a cruel, but necessary evil!" (everyone boos)

Thinking about 13 Latvias again

I genuinely belive this is the funniest fucking thing we will ever get from reddit

I need you all to know that I think about 13 Latvias so much that now every time I meet someone from Latvia I have to resist the urge to ask "which one"

In the Latviaverse this is just a normal map

reblog to shlop your friends

There is,,, a lobster. On the way

There is a lobster somewhere in the facility but we don’t know where

This is not a joke btw I was supposed to receive and acclimate a lobster today but I waited around in the lobby for an hour before finding out that the Lobster Deliverer went around back and gave the lobster to the aquarist and he went out on a diving trip without telling anyone where he put the lobster. There is literally a lobster here somewhere and we can’t find it. Lobster location unknown.

Update he put it in one of the lobster traps tied to the pier. Which is fine, that’s where it was gonna go anyway until we set up its display, but I would’ve preferred to acclimate it before plopping it into the ocean. But the hooligan has been contained. There will be no surprise lobster attacks today.

Update 2 here is Thee Lobster

A third, and likely last, update:

When I went to feed our lovely one in a hundred million cotton candy lobster today, he was gone. And I don’t mean dead, I mean gone. Missing. The crate was empty.

So, it seems Thee Lobster (Neptune) (I named him) (he was my favorite lobster) has once again become a lobster on the loose, and likely vanished forever into the gulf of Maine. I wish you the best, good sir, and I am glad I got to care for you these last three months.

Weirdly Specific Things from Dreams

Okay, I was pondering this on the way home from work, so, which weirdly specific (or specifically weird) thing that tends to crop up my dreams have you also noticed in yours?

Buggy Butt! Art of my character Blossom. 🌸

bonus:

I’ve never seen this with the update and it makes it so much funnier

I think every piece of media should now only advertise by putting their biggest clown on the Tumblr dashboard

jumping past elon's guards into his limo with him and saying "they call me the tesla model 3 the way I explode without warning" before pulling on the cord coming out of my jacket

I love reading classics because they're either as good enough to warrant their reputations and I have an amazing time OR if I get bored I end up having the most incredible procrastinatory orgasms of my life

The dull parts of the Aeneid gave me some of the most spine-bending nuts I've ever experienced in my life. No amount of foreplay could possibly match the torture I put my holes through just because I don't want to fucking read another chapter of some book

We know you want to burn down capitalism.

But for today, just don’t answer your boss’s call off the clock.

We know you believe in ACAB and think they all should get the wall.

But for today, just don’t call 9-1-1 on the guy screaming outside of your apartment.

The memes are fun. The memes are aspirational and keep us reaching for the horizon.

But look down, too, at what actually is.

Endure pains now—suffer the inconveniences now—knowing that they likely involve unpleasantness.

The Revolution™ is fun to imagine and involves no pain. But the real world does involve pain, and it’s necessary to exercise the muscles needed for future work and opportunities.

What's more the small stuff can really matter in ways that have nothing to do with individual preparation. We're conditioned to either think we have no influence in our communities, or that the mundane work of caring for people immediately around you is useless in the grand scheme. Neither of those is true. Investing yourself in justice for people around you helps create a culture of mutual support that is *needed* for people to exercise political agency within systems designed to atomize and oppress.

Every mundane, unglamorous bit of work has an impact, even when it doesn't feel revolutionary, if it's able to alleviate the grinding suffering that gates so many people out of political agency. When the "small" inmediate problems of our lives are made less pressing, when our confidence is bolstered by the knowledge of support from people who are physically HERE and involved in our lives...that's when we start having more of the will and ability to do the kinds of work commonly considered revolutionary.

The idea of starting a tenant union or affiliative group can be daunting or impossible! You know what still has an impact? Getting to know one neighbor.

dnd jokes that will always be funny no matter what your dm tells you

feel free to add more

this anime’s refusal to engage with the technicalities of its own premise is SO inspiring. we don’t have time to focus on whatever plot hole physics we used to get here, we have an undead pop band to run
