unstoppable force (i want to see this tragic character survive and heal) vs immovable object (their death was the most thematic and narratively satisfying resolution possible for their character arc and anything less than death just feels cheap)
got called into the living room because "they're talking about something you'll like on tv" and it was a documentary about arsenic poisoning
feels worth mentioning that my response to this was to yell "POISONS??? :D :D :D" and sprint into the room like a dog that's just been told it's time for a walk
to the casual observer it may look like i'm trying to summon a demon but anyone who knows me will realize that i am simply calling my wife
The wife and the demon are the same person
The fact that these replies would mean wildly different thing had they been said on a different platform, such as Facebook, is absolutely hilarious
me before getting to the end of this post
Listen if the study of ancient humans doesn’t make you at least a little bit emotional idk what to say.
I started crying today at the museum because they had reconstructed the shoes of Otzi the iceman.
Either he or someone he knew who cared about him made these shoes out of grass and bear skin and twine and he was wearing them when he died over five thousand years ago.
And a Czech researcher and his students did reconstructions of these shoes and wore them to the same place where he died to test them out and they were like yep! These shoes are really cozy and comfy and didn’t give us blisters while hiking!
Is that not just the coolest shit ever????

the tags on this post are some of the funniest i’ve ever seen in my notifications but this one made me choke on my Mohammedan Gruel
GROUNDS FOR DIVORCE
[ID: A Tumblr tag that reads: "dont talk to me until ive had my mohammeden gruel".
A Tumblr comment from "writing5novelsatonce" that reads: "Please to read my offbeat 16th C Ottoman Empire rom com titled "Grounds for Divorce"". End ID]
EVERYBODY knows (or should) that you DO. NOT. STOP. in Vidor, Texas.
It’s best to just run out of gas elsewhere. Whatever you do, black folks, DO NOT STOP IN VIDOR, TEXAS.
There’s a good chance you’ll get lynched or just come up missing - and I’m not joking.
also do NOT stop in Harrison, Arkansas!!!! (relatively close to OK and MI) a nazi town with a BIG KKK organization.

In case you like not getting killed.
Some day I want to see a show that does the “no filler episodes” thing from the opposite direction. Just a whole season worth of low-stakes character pieces that seem to move the overall story absolutely nowhere, then episode 26 pulls all the triggers at once and this massive Rube Goldberg machine of a plot the show’s been quietly setting up in the background the whole time hits you like a truck.
Incredible one-liners as always
"I cant draw" then do it bad who gives a fuck.....
Partake in the joy of creation just for the fun of it. Just for a laff.
Me @everyone in the notes
Fun fact: if you do something badly enough, you start to get good at it. And if you're having fun the whole time, then you win in every possible way.
one thing about alcohol that a lot of people seem to believe is that is makes you more fun and easygoing and likeable. it actually does not make you more likeable inherently, what it does is suppress the anxiety and self consciousness that inhibits you normally because you don't have the cognitive power for it to be running at the same time as yaydrunk.exe
now I certainly know people who have a lot of fun while drunk and are a pleasure to be around and it shows a different side of their personality. however, i have also known and observed many people who say "I'm so much better drunk" who have imbibed and simply lost all awareness that their behavior is inappropriate, obnoxious, annoying, insulting, selfish, or even straight up frightening
and this also goes for weed. "I'm just more social stoned" people often do not understand that just because you feel better (because you are feeling less) does not mean you're acting better and you have taken a hammer to the your brain's ability to perceive social information
I know this is a nightmare post for people who use substances to socialize but idk I think it's something to know. And again there are people who it doesn't apply to! also it matters way less if everyone else you hang out with is also not sober. get some sober people in the mix and they will be seeing and observing you with their non addled minds. which is also a reason drinkers/stoners hate when you get sober and will try to get you inebriated with them again as fast as possible :)

Friendly reminder that asking your lycan partner to turn you is incredibly insensitive! Seriously can we retire this trope already? Not only is it just offensive, but no one would ever actually choose this life! Lycanthropy is a curse. Full stop.
🐾 superhowllock69 Follow
Ok user "moon-moon" as if that original meme wasn't created to mock pack nomenclature 🙄
Anyway I'm not gonna touch that internalized lycanphobia with a ten foot pole. Being turned by your partner is something that can be incredibly intimate as long as both parties are consenting and the one being turned is 100% sure they want it. Literally the only downside to transforming once a month is the pain, but midol works just fine. No one with these "lycanthropy bad" takes ever wants to discuss the legitimate positives that come with this "curse" lmao.
🐺 moon-moon4w00 Follow
I'm literally reclaiming moon moon but go off I guess. Anyways turning your partner is absolutely disgusting and morally reprehensible and anyone who does it should be muzzled permanently.
🌜 impawssible Follow
lmao my wife literally saved my life when she turned me but i guess she should be muzzled huh? we run through the woods hunting deer together and can each haul in groceries in one trip now, but nooo she's obviously a danger to society because she cares enough about me to help me when insurance wouldn't cover my medicine
also it was confirmed that the creator of that meme literally makes and sells silver bullets so if you still wanna use moon moon for yourself that certainly is a choice. source: (X)

I love that instead of naming the more common benefits of lycanthropy, you mentioned that you and your wife can carry all the groceries in one trip. I think that's definitely a positive that gets overlooked far too often and I commend you for speaking your truth, sir

wasn't OP the same guy who said fursuits were offensive to lycanthropes and doxxed a werewolf fursuiter?

They ARE offensive and harmful to this community and I'm tired of pretending they're not. They perpetuate harmful depictions of what a humanoid wolf is actually like.

when you're sick you're either a prince moder or a dog moder. prince moding is when you demand many little treats, drinks etc. i personally prefer to drag myself off to a secluded corner to either die or recover, aka dog moding
when taking care of a sick person youre either an attendant or a vet. You either bring you ailing ward all that they desire, constantly checking on them and gently encouraging them to eat, ect. OR you have to drag them out of bed while they complain and shove pills down their throat, much to their distress.
