This too shall pass but like holy fuck
Hi, this isn’t an ask I just wanna say how much I respect the creative decision to have Polly exit Basil's life after the incident: So many fanworks have her step up as Basil's mother figure but like, not only is it a bit of a tired trope at this point but she also doesn't have much personal motivation to hear him out or stay in his life after he turns violent, nor does she seem like she's particularly equipped to deal with that mess. Her leaving is profoundly tragic yet entirely mundane, which is one of the major appeals of OMORI in the first place.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH 🥺🥺🥺 It means a lot to me, since I was doubtful at first because of how popular the idea is.
No disrespect to creators that keep her, of course- everyone works hard on their art and it deserves to be appreciated.
She's a kind lady- she truly is. But when I read through her dialogue, there's a persistent theme she is just not trained to take care of suicidal teenagers. She cares for Basil, but doesn't know what his problems are, or how to help him.
I'm really protective over Basil and emotional over topics of suicide. I feel very strongly about the correct ways to help suicidal people and what would and wouldn't help.
The most helpful thing for suicidal people is good support systems and people around you that are capable of helping. He needs a real psychiatrist and people around him that can look out for his signs. People that know him well enough to tell when he's fake smiling.
And she's very open about not knowing how to help! She outright says, to two teenagers, "If anyone can help him, it's you!". She expresses feeling incompetent and unsure of what to do repeatedly.
If Polly's known him for 2 years and doesn't get it now, she won't later. And she's very open about this!
I think she was mostly hired to take care of the grandmother. She probably knows how to do CPR, change catheters, bath and change the elderly, but when Basil's parents when they hired her had no idea Basil had any issues, so they didn't hire a youth specialist.
Basically... I think if he's going to survive, he needs better, and it will definitely get addressed in my comic.
Hypothetically, but he hasn't yet! But in case it's helpful, since White Space is imaginary people can do stuff like send him food and blankets. And lots of little Basils.
No disrespect to those who decide to keep her from me either ofc! She's a character that is ripe with potential for fleshing out and a lot of cool fan works have done really great stuff with her, but for my taste I Iike my OMORI fanfics a bit more bitter than most folks make them.
Glad my feedback could brighten your day!
There are actual tears in my eyes rn can you believe people are this stupid and walk among us all the time
Standard sword and sorcery fantasy film periodically interrupted by cutaways to an in-universe historian from a notional period hundreds of years after the depicted events explaining the film's various historical inaccuracies. There's a recurring tangent about how the film's protagonist is a conflation of three different guys, all of them much weirder than the end product of that conflation.

oh my god i didnt know there was a sequel image

new seasons greasons lore dropped
hey, don’t cry. one half flour one half yogurt knead into dough and fry for easy flatbread and dip in balsamic vinegar, okay?
After three batches, my findings so far:
- I use full fat Greek yoghurt and self-rising flour
- Ratio by weight
- Add a pinch of salt
- Knead until no longer sticky, adding more flour if necessary
- Roll them with olive oil instead of flour and fry in an otherwise unoiled, preheated pan (medium heat) (trust in the lord; it will seem like it's going to stick to the pan at first but they'll unstick in about 15 seconds)
- Roll them thin but not too thin; mine take about 45 seconds on either side
- Serving with garlic butter is also a very good option
I’m gonna be eating these for a month
This actually works?? Two-ingredient bread??
I gotta try it.
That's...naan.
That's naan?
*runs to Google*
HOLY SHIT THAT IS NAAN! HOW DID I NOT KNOW NAAN WAS THAT EASY TO MAKE?
merry christmas, festive winter berry leafeons for you

“average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

holy shit OP is not only still active but is still making absolutely banger posts in this exact style 11 years later
A 2025 update
Every time I see a Season Greasons post, I can’t help but wonder how many people actually know that image is from Man After Man and is supposed to be future evolved humans killing each other for food
I’m sorry please elaborate what is Man After Man
And why are the evolved humans so hairy
Man After Man is a book by Dougal Dixon on the speculative evolution of man after climate change, genetic engineering, and environmental collapse leads to the engineering of new human species to fill those biological niches, which then goes completely wild when society totally collapses and evolution runs wild.
As for why they’re so hairy? To survive in the freezing tundra. Why are they in the tundra? No idea. New human subspecies are created seemingly just to exist. However, be glad that they are hairy cause it’s the non hairy ones that are really horrifying.
Like the aquatics…
Or the space avocados Vacuumorph who were engineered to build spaceships for the elite…
Or these fucked up horsed people…
I got this far down the rabbit hole. Might as well dive deeper.
Goddamnit. Why did I even mention those? I don't want to be known as the Man After Man tumblr 🤦
Well you know the guys from the meme?
Well over the course of Two million years, they eventually go from that to this...
Yep, the hunters have now become literal Parasites who feast off the blood and fat of the now massive and hairless tundra walker Hosts
But it doesn't end there. You remember how it was mention that there were spaceships being built? Well those humans eventually return to Earth after several million years. And do you want to guess what they do?
This...
They turn the Hosts into this, massive immobile mountains of flesh harvested for meat as quickly as it grows.
So yeah, that's what the Season Greasons meme is all conected to and I am angry that knowledge of this takes up actual space in my brain
This time of year, it’s important to remember the story behind a classic holiday image.
the christian veneration of the lamb has always been terrifying to me in ways i can’t explain
here’s this figure that is vulnerable and easily abused and what’s admirable about it is that it doesn’t fight back and it doesn’t try to defend itself and it’s suffering is noble because it just sits there and takes it. pain is beautiful when you surrender to pain, suffering is godly when you don’t question or try to protect yourself and survival is ugly… like it is just me or is anybody else’s fucking skin crawling rn!!
large accounts are literally reblogging self proclaimed pedophile rights advocates atp you can like. read and critically think. maybe this doesn't apply to you and you're fr talking about false accusations w your friends and if so i apologize. but you know its not always that at this moment and thats a general post. this atmosphere is not coming from people just making shit up. im a trans woman and have disassociated with like twenty five percent of the website over this. you can critically think. use it
hi it's me tumblr user anonymous, so in your post where you said people have been baselessly accusing your friend of wanting to blow up the moon, were you talking about a friend who has been baselessly accused of wanting to blow up the moon, or large accounts (!!) that currently exist that actively are promoting the demolition of the moon? I apologize if you really are talking about false accusations with your friends but you need to be aware that there really are people out there who want to blow up the moon and so as far as I know there really is evidence that your "friend" is a Bad Person.
Hey, casually speaking into the void here but a lot of ya'll are blatantly amd enthusiastically falling for and promoting the Nigerian Prince scam on the daily with these Gaza accounts. Obviously fuck Israel and their genocidal terror campaign but these accounts are pretty obviously not actually Palestinians and are just preying on your sympathies.
I mean people can complain about discord all they want and it's usually justified but discord at its worst is still better than skype at its best
Like with people reacting to the one old post abt why everyone should switch from skype to discord all "Look how bad it's gotten now" but it has still never been as bad as fucking skype that shit sucked
discord has become bloated with myriad annoying features. but it's still functional. you can use it to talk to people. and frankly that's more than could be said about skype
