DO THE ABSOLUTE MINIMUM AT WORK. MAKE ART THAT HURTS. ABANDON ALL GUILT AND SHAME. DONT LET THEM KILL YOUR SOUL. BECOME YOUR OWN PERSONAL GOD. GROW SPIKES. DONT LET THEM KILL YOUR SOUL

through pure random chance someone said "jerma rip your shirt open" and he said no i like this shirt. let me put one over it and rip that instead. and he gave the nation of mexico an eternal gift

literally so important to have friends where you can be like "can i be insane for a second" and then you get to be insane. and they still like you afterwards

everyone give thanks to the middle eastern and north african people of over ten thousand years ago for domesticating the african wildcat and providing the entire world with some of the best pets ever 🙏🙏🙏 it was probably the best idea any human has ever had.

you can honestly tell that this is the ancestor of all domestic cats. look at it. just a lil tabby cat. with long long legs.

[attempting to flirt] if i was stuck in a timeloop id desperately explain my situation to you every single reset

Ever since reading my first time loop-based book as a preteen, I’ve had a Secret Time Loop Code Word. It’s been the same word all these years. I’ve never written it down anywhere or told anyone what it is, just kept it tucked away in my brain. That way, if someone I know ever confided in me that they were stuck in a time loop, I would have a way to confirm it: I would tell them the time loop code word and instruct them to find and talk to me again on the next loop. Of course, if it’s a time loop, I wouldn’t remember telling them the code word. But they’d remember it. So if someone ever came to me and said “I’m stuck in a time loop, and the time loop code word is [X],” and it was indeed the word I’ve secretly held onto for most of my life, I would know that we had had this conversation in a previous loop and that they were telling the truth.

Will this ever be useful? Almost certainly not. But hey, there’s nothing wrong with having a completely absurd contingency plan. In case of time loops.

If you're on Windows 11 like I am for my "main" computer (in my case for school purposes and because I can't get Baldur's Gate 3 to play on Linux), then you might've seen this annoying piece of AI shit show up on your taskbar:

This is Windows Copilot, and it's fulled by the same shit ChatGPT is fuelled by. There is currently no way to uninstall it, but there is a way to deactivate it completely, which I've linked below. It's very easy, and it took me like, 2 minutes to do.

reblogging this so I can find it when my shitty new computer comes and I have to spend several hours attempting to deshittify it.

"bring back bullying" no <3 be nice <333

it doesn't! bullying people is wrong, full stop! if someone is doing something genuinely wrong u can confront them in ways that arent bullying, and if someone is being irritating but not actively harmful they don't fucking deserve to be bullied :)

good afternoon zeztz nation

there’s definitely a gulf between someone who knows how to play chess and someone who plays chess, but it’s nothing compared to scrabble

specifically, “uwu” is being added to the international english scrabble dictionary, which is apparently a big deal because uuw is a terrible tile combination otherwise

New pnf movie is coming tomorrow morning

Fantasy setting where there is an enforced upper limit on how much wealth and power someone can attain because if they get too much, a dragon will eat them and steal all their stuff.

Dragons like treasure hoards absolutely but they also looove to eat the rich. Trying to hide your wealth in various smaller deposits and behind false identities and the like doesn't work because it's magic, the magic still knows you have wealth/power, and the dragon smells it on you and decides you are tasty.

Being magical themselves, dragons don't actually need to eat. If nothing arouses their hunger they will just sleep for however long in their lairs, with their previously accumulated treasures all heaped up around them, maybe coming out once every few hundred years to breed or move house. Brave adventurers can try and steal treasures from sleeping dragons, but it's a risky move not because it's hard to steal from the sleeping dragon, but because if you succeed too well you will immediately start to smell tasty in their vicinity and they will wake up. How tasty you smell depends on how good of a thief you are, so it's a major catch, and there is a lot of speculation on what the max upper limit of wealth you can take from a dragon is before they'll wake up.

Rational approaches often don't work, however, because treasure that's been exposed to dragons for any significant length of time usually gets cursed. You might embark on the quest thinking you'll only take one or two golden goblets and be able to retire comfortably off of the resale, but then you get into the dragon's lair and your brain fries at the mountains of treasure and the next thing you know you're trying to escape with a trunk load of rubies and strings of pearls all wrapped around you and golden coin pouches weighing down your pack, and the dragon's eyes are opening, and, well. That's you done for.

Anyway, every now and again there's some aspiring emperor or proto fantasy capitalist who gets the idea of hiring dragon slayers to go kill all the sleeping dragons and rid the world of this menace, etc etc, but the only thing that wakes a dragon up faster than the smell of a tasty morsel is someone actually attacking them. So, it's never gone well.

Some things you can only ask your mentally ill friends about later in life.😅
