the nearest depiction of an animal or other sentient fantasy creature to you at this moment comes to life right where it is (i.e. cat photograph, shark plushie, dragon painting, etc)
assume it doesn’t know you (unless it’s actually a specific animal you’ve met) and that it’s normal for its species and would do whatever was natural for it. including being too giant for and destroying the room it’s in. as well as dying immediately if its environment can’t support its life
Some thoughts on Pokemon ZA so far:
- What does A rank actually mean? Because if Urbain explained it, I don't remember. Meanwhile all these low-level bosses are all "I'll outlaw everything but taxis" and "I'll artificially inflate the rating of this restaurant"
- I really ought to be able to ride on my scolipede. I don't care if it's slower and less maneuverable than walking, I want it as an option
- So that's what it feels like to get distracted by shopping and spend more money than you meant to
The song of the Mediterranean siren (L. agaea) rarely includes words in any human language. Instead, the melody and the siren's voice combine to work directly on the desire centers of the human brain. Unlike the closely-related common harpy (L. tigris), few Mediterranean sirens bother to learn or use any language but their own. In contrast, most species of Atlantic siren lack this power entirely, and frequently learn the languages used by sailors that pass through their ranges.
It is not clear why agaea wreck human ships. An estimated 20% of the population is never observed to do so, and does not appear to suffer physically or socially from their abstention. The few direct accounts from individual agaea seem to treat it as a commonplace activity that requires no explanation.
i was in a thrift shop the other day and they were playing the most unsettling variations of normal christmas music, culminating in this rendition of the 12 days of christmas except it was like 12 guys all singing over each other and going “no!” and interrupting the lyrics with random other phrases until they deadass just started singing 5 golden rings to toto’s africa. can anyone confirm that this is a real song and not that i stroked so hard i astral projected into a universe where everything is somehow worse than it is here
I remember listening to this in grade school. I am going to go get some Chinese food.
this is what my anxiety attacks sound like
Oh I needed this laugh this evening. Thank you so much.
In case anyone didn’t want to leave Tumblr and just hit “play”
Tumblr are you OK? It’s december and you’ve hardly even touched your “twelve days of Christmas by straight no chaser”
Recognizing that you're roughly 18, lemme just break a couple of things down.
- It's not murder unless there's intent. You're looking at vehicular manslaughter. Except not necessarily, because
- A lot of car crashes are non-fatal. Besides which,
- You're not gonna be charged, because you're in the passenger seat. At worst, you might be a mitigating factor in charges against your mom.
Hmm. I wonder if that's an issue of not having them, or of not indexing them properly.
According to the website, my local library has twelve InCryptid books. The last one is numbered 14, so I fought my way through the lack of sorting to determine that, if they're numbered correctly, the missing ones are 7 and 13. (I could look up the titles somewhere else to cross-check, but it doesn't matter that much to me.) I've just started the fifth one, so I've got some time, but I should start looking into what kind of further afield to go in order to keep reading.
One of the weirdest thing about growing up suicidal is that you assume you have no future, you don’t even try to envision it because you see no point. So eventually, you start assuming everyone else sees nothing in your future either. Recently, my friend and I were talking and she said something about how at her wedding I could wear a suit or a dress as long as it matched her bridesmaid’s dresses because the butler of honor has to make a good impression. This hit me so hard because I had never realized before how other people thought about me. She said it so casually like it wasn’t even a hard decision, just a given fact. She loves me so much she saw me at her wedding, standing with her on one of the most important days of her life. And you know what? There are so many people who think about you that way. If that isn’t proof that you should keep going I don’t know what is.
This is called a sense of foreshortened future and it is also very common in traumatized people, particularly in cases involving long-term abuse or the death of a loved one.
Shoutout to this post which gave me words for the unshakeable belief that I had for all of my teen years that I was going to die before I hit adulthood, and that it was probably going to be in a car accident.
I am now 30 and extremely happy to have been proven wrong, btw.
