Fun Fact
The “We are the 99%” Tumblr blog became the slogan for the Occupy Wall Street movement.

For NaNo this year, I needed something easy and something that I knew I’d be motivated to get through, so I’m just off-the-cuff throwing together a BOTW based AU about our DnD characters. It’s already one of the best things I’ve ever written. I’m making up non-trademarked world backstory, and just kind of going “fuck it, this is happening now”

I need an art blog.
But uh, here’s Griffin. My wood elf Druid that I’ve become incredibly fixated on. He’s the son of a duke (? or whatever their people’s equivalent is) who just dropped dead the same day Griffin was born. No one knows why, and his mother is so viscously tight-lipped about that day that Griffin has resigned himself to thinking they never will. A lot of people in their family’s court tried taking advantage of the fact that he seems to be looking for answers anywhere, and now he’s suffering the emotional after effects while still being no closer to figuring out his dad’s death than he was before.

You: seeing six crows is bad luck and an omen of death
Me, an intellectual: seeing six crows is great luck because you get to see six crows

Hi! I don't know if you're continuing your heathers story, but I just wanna say that that was the most entertaining and unique and vivid and wild fic I have ever read for any fandom. What a ride it has been to read it this week, truly! Whatever you decide, I hope you have an amazing day!! And week, and year, let's go for year!
God, thank you so much. You guys have been so sweet, and I definitely didn't expect to get the kind of reception I've gotten on this spurr of the moment AU. I dont know why I haven't updated it yet tbh. I know I said I had most of the next chapter mostly edited, and I do, but uhh I dont know lmao. I've never had a story get attention before, and I guess it made me kind of,,,, anxious??? Thats a terrible reason to leave people hanging, and I might come back to it, but I really cant promise anything. If nothing else, I'll post what I have of the next chapter, edited or not.

Also idk if y'all are dweebs about local legends and obscure historical facts and monuments and cool things in your city that are like…..unconventional I guess
But there’s this website called AtlasObscura.com where you can literally put in ur zip code or ur city or ur state and it’ll literally show you a map and list of a bunch big super cool interesting sometimes spooky things in ur area!!!
Like if you’re into crypts and catacombs and history and legends and unusual attractions….this is ur best bet
Especially if you’re visiting a city (like Boston cough) where you want to not solely do the popular overpriced and over packed typical tourist shit this summer!!!
