If the ocean ever disappears DONT GO LOOKING FOR IT… go in the other direction

i know this sounds like a shitpost but isn’t this like, real advice regarding tsunamis

Yes this was about hurricane Irma it is not a shitpost

This is actually really good advice so let me elaborate a bit: if you notice the tide is retreating very quickly at a very odd time of day, get as far away from water and as high up as you can. I live along the ocean and a long time ago we had a small tsunami and a relative of mine tells me how her father saw the tides retreating so he just picked her up and just ran, which probably saved their lives.

So yeah DONT LOOK FOR THE MISSING OCEAN just run away

ocean not lost, ocean is actually winding up to kick you very hard in the nuts.

you wanna know what really gets me about Orym?

A lot of people have been talking about how hard Orym’s grief is hitting.  How Liam is coming from a place where he truly knows how it feels to lose a loved one and then, six years later, still miss them horribly (Orym, his husband, Liam, his mom).  And I think that’s absolutely beautiful, how Liam can tackle such a realistic situation in such a poignant way.  I want to see what he ends up doing with Orym.  I want to see how Orym’s story unfolds.

But you know what I haven’t seen much remarked upon?

Orym is queer.

It hasn’t fully been established what Orym’s true sexuality is, but the reality is that he, a man, married another man.  He is queer in every sense of the word.  And his sexuality is played 100% direct and serious.  Chetney didn’t laugh at the prospect of Orym marrying another dude.  None of the cast snickered or made fun of the fact that it is a gay pairing.  Hell, just a few episodes ago, the party was playing therapy for, you guessed it, another (ex)romantic pair of men.

The world of Exandria doesn’t have time for homophobia.  And the cast of Critical Role (hell, the company itself) does not tolerate it in the slightest.

And you know what that results in?  People watching get to see the story of a queer man go through grief and loss and sadness just like any heterosexual character would, in any other media.  Only this time, it’s queer.

And dear god is that not refreshing.  To see not only the remnants of a happy and thriving queer couple, but to see a layered, nuanced, and beautiful story of grief and longing unfold in a space where the queerness of it all is never questioned.  It is never made fun of, or scorned.  It is accepted.

I don’t know, something about the fact that “So I can remember my husband” is never met with any sort of prejudice or hatred, and is instead met with comfort and sympathy.  How Travis, a man who grew up in Texas, where homophobia is very very present, as Chetney says “Will must have been very happy”.

Just the idea of a story being told in media of a multi-faceted, layered, beautifully tragic story of someone losing their partner just so happens to be queer.

It makes me really emotional that a story like this exists.

Thanks, Liam.

He’d heard the stories.

Of course he had. Growing up in Zephrah, how could he not? Their leader was a legend, and every visit from her friends came with tales of battles with dragons and gods and undead. Orym’s youth had been filled with songs of the saviors of Tal’dorei from every tavern bard, with wide eyes around campfires as older kids whispered of corpses swaying from trees.

When he joined up with the guard of the Voice of the Tempest, the fuzzy folk tales of childhood sharpened with the realities of war.

The saviors of Tal’dorei were heroes, but they were people, too. Remarkable people, to be sure, but people all the same. People who’d fought for the ones they loved, who’d lost loved ones anyway to violence and fate. 

Keyleth was everything the Air Ashari boasted about their chief—powerful and wise and inspiring and true. She was also a woman whose eyes crinkled with compassion when she smiled. She tripped over her words when responding to praise. She knew the names of every soldier in her guard. She spent afternoons reading in the shade with her mother and father. She cracked jokes in council meetings that didn’t always land. She snuck crumbs to the ravens that seemed to always follow her around. 

As for the ghost stories—behind every ghost was a body, and behind every body was a life cut short.

Remember: if it goes HRUUGH! it is not your cow. It is a hippopotamus.

You’re a daycare worker, watching over toddlers, when the imminent end of the world is announced. It becomes increasingly clear none of the kids’ parents are going to show up as the end inches nearer.

[Audio starts]

“Mom has been texting me for the last twenty minutes. She wants me to come home. It’s a four hour drive, when the roads are clear, and from what I hear everybody is trying to get somewhere right now. There’s no telling if I’d even-”

“Everybody else has left. All the other kids were picked up, the other staff left. They gave me all the keys. I promised to stay and wait for as long as- well. Even if some of the parents show up, I guess some of them won’t, so I’m just waiting. Until.”

[Clears throat.]

“A couple of people came after everybody left. Peter, one of Aidan’s fathers, gave me three hundred dollars for staying. What am I going to do with money? It’s- anyway. I kind of get it. He wanted to give me something.”

[Audio ends]

[Audio starts]

“They’re all between 2 and 4.” Sniff. “They’re so little. Too little to really- maybe if they were older, I’d have to tell them something. But um. I’m just- trying to stay calm and keep them happy and occupied. I think that’s the best thing, right now.”

[Heaving breaths.]

“I normally use this recorder to help me remember stuff. It’s just, uh, habit to talk to it. I don’t know. They’re napping, right now. I’ve got the baby monitor, they know that if they talk into it, I’ll come, so-”

[Sobbing.]

[Audio ends]

[Audio starts]

“Mom keeps texting, so I blocked her. I sent her a text telling her goodbye, first, but. I do. But these kids need me.”

[Sniff.]

“I tried calling their parents again, but I can’t get anybody. It’s just busy signals. I called the firefighter station, 911. I can’t get through to anybody.”

[Shaky breath.]

“I went out into the yard. Um, I think they can play. It’s nice out, and you can’t really see it yet. Little bit of a glimmer, if they ask I’ll just tell them it’s a plane, but it’s nice out and we’ve got hours before-”

[Murmuring child’s voice, indistinguishable.]

[Audio ends]

Am no havin Children

A brilliant Scots poem by @enniesaurus on Twitter

[Video Description: A pale-skinned, red-haired woman speaks with a Scottish accent. She says: “Hi, this poem is called I’m no’ havein’ Children.

I’m no’ havin’ children, ‘am gonnae hae weans,

And ye can ask what a cry them, no ‘what are their names’

And they’ll be getting a piece, no a wee ‘packed lunch’

And they’ll be haein a scran, no ‘having a munch’

They’ll fanny aboot, they won’t waste time

When they write their wee poyums, I’ll make sure they rhyme.

I’m no ‘having children’, am gonna hae weans,

Who’ll be gowpin and bealin’ when they’ve goat aches and pains

And instead of ‘don’t worry’, a’ll say ‘dinnae fash’, 

Instead of ‘stand your ground’, ‘dinnae take any snash’

Ma weans will be crabbit, no ‘in a bad mood’

And they’ll greet, no ‘cry’ when their day isnae good.

I’m no ‘having children’, am gonna hae weans,

With a proud ancient language crammed in their wee brains

An whenever life tells them their English is bad

I’ll tell them the hassles that their mammy had

And a’ll say ma maw’s words till the day that am deid

‘Ye’ll be alright hen, ye’ve a guid Scots tongue in yer heid.

Thank you.”

She then turns off the camera. End Video Description.]

I started this piece before the war. I didn’t get to see the new episodes. And even if I could watch them, things that used to make me happy before it all make me cry now, and we’re not allowed to cry about frivolous things anymore here. We save our tears for bigger losses or for the time when we’ll be safe enough to not hold them back anymore. But despite everything, I wanted to finish this, because I want to hold on to who I was - a lover of imagination in all forms, a believer in kindness, a lover of beauty. Because if anything happens, these silly little pictures is what I want to put out into the world. And if for a second they bring you joy that’s worth it.
