One more joke hate: You may claim to be a woman but biologically you are a featherless biped and thus a man.

Finally a good argument for why I'm actually a man

yesterday in economic botany we were learning about plant based oil compounds and stuff and my botany professor was talking about lynn seed oil, which in woodworking is rubbed on over furniture as a varnish. this oil has an exothermic chemical reaction with oxygen, meaning that the reaction creates heat. what often happens, apparently, is that woodworkers will finish rubbing on the oil with a rag and then will ball up the rag and throw it away, but because the reaction is taking place and the heat can’t escape (like it would on a piece of furniture where it can be cooled) it gets trapped in the rag, which gets hotter and hotter until it reaches the temperature where it bursts into flame. apparently many woodworking shops have been burned down by this. the proper way to dispose of rags with this oil is to hang them up on a clothesline, so again the reaction never gets enough heat to start a fire. im telling you this because im a writer and ive never heard of substance that will just…spontaneously combust conveniently like that so long as it’s in a confined space. my botany professor tried it in a trash can in his driveway and it did indeed burst into flame after 45 minutes, which is an exceptionally convenient time delay. im sorry im tying this so fast my laptop is on 2% battery and theres no outlet an

need a bi4bi t4t m/f pairing where the girl is a giant freak and not in the "cute manic pixie" way but in the "unethical experiments in my fucked up laboratory" way and the guy is a golden retriever who thinks he can fix her. and he brings her cute bento lunches and she's like "bradley shut up put on your fucking gloves and hold this possum down so i can graft these giant grasshopper legs to it"

Eight months later, with almost 100 hours of gameplay between three different Tavs, I finally figured out how to intentionally end concentration on a spell so that this doesn’t happen

I mean better late than never I guess

Hey squad can we please NOT run directly into Gale’s cloud of daggers the instant combat ends. Thank you. No— no, Shadowheart, that means you too. Especially you. You have 3hp left and you’re the only healer. Stop running into the— STOP running into the cloud of daggers. Girl you have the highest wisdom score in the party why don’t you know better.

I finally finished this first playthrough of BG3 after procrastinating on the final fight for months and starting two new runs in the meantime and oh my god I cried so much, so now finally here are my completed opinions of the Tadfools:

Lae’zel: my beautiful cranky puppy-eyed dragon riding badass, I’m so so so proud of her

Shadowheart: *incomprehensible sobbing* she has come so far and changed so beautifully and I still want to have girly bestie wine nights with her, but giggly and snuggling instead of being gossipy bitches now

Astarion: “people don’t care about murder as long as you murder the right people” so true my beloved scoundrel; his character arc is wonderful and I’m glad he’s grown as a person but tbh I’d have been sad if he wasn’t still a stabby little bitch at the end

Gale: being a little more humble looks good on him lol. He still reminds me of my fiancé. In keeping with that, my dear Tav has married him.

Wyll: still nothing but adoration for the world’s best warlock, SERIOUSLY PEOPLE WHY ARE YOU NOT ALL UNANIMOUSLY SWOONING AND WEEPING OVER THIS MAN

Halsin: please hug me it will fix me

Karlach: her story broke my heart and soul into a million pieces and and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a character who exemplifies almost-spiteful joy and optimism in the face of inescapable tragedy and doom the way she does. I want to hug her for a million years.

Jaheira: my beloved grumpy camp mom

Minsc: HIMBO WITH A HAMSTER HIMBO WITH A HAMSTER HIMBO WITH A HAMSTER

Minthara I am so sorry I accidentally killed you on this run because I didn’t know you were a possible companion (but on my second run I do have her in my party and am very fond of her so far)

Thank you, void. This concludes my official completed BG3 character opinions scream.

Welp I finally started playing BG3 and I need to scream into the void about it. So hi void, here’s my opinions about the characters I’ve met so far (about 10hrs in and almost level 5) in the order I met them:

Lae’zel: scary. Hot but scary. She and my Tav do NOT get along yet but that’s ok we’ll get there

Shadowheart: I want to be girly besties with her and get wine drunk and gossip about our other party members thanks

Astarion: love this bitchy vampire man, interested to see how a romance arc would go but mostly just want to be unhinged fuckbuddies tbh

Gale: yeah probably gonna romance him, this purple-wearing charismatic nerd reminds me of my irl partner it can’t be helped

Wyll: I adore him, I want to be his platonic husband, absolute sweetheart of a warlock bestie who I would fight god for

Halsin: please hug me it will fix me

Karlach: *incoherent sapphic panic*

Thank you void, this has been a fulfilling scream

I hate how Jinx’s eye colour includes ‘Violet’ which is Vi’s true name, one of the only times we hear Powder/ Jinx call Vi ‘Violet’ is after Vi punches her and she holds Powder’s face in her hand, this moment is one of Jinx’s most reoccurring memories.. 😭 I HATE how this her eye colour after the shimmer is Pink Violet, her shimmer injection which changes her eye colour symbolising her almost complete change into Jinx, the name coincidentally her sister calls her RIGHT BEFORE she says ‘Violet.. please..”

I despise how Vi’s eyes eye colour includes ‘Powder’ which, symbolises that Vi is so blinded by the love that she has for her younger sister that she cannot believe that she has changed (mainly because she blames herself for being the reason Powder changed into Jinx.)

hope you enjoyed this cutesy fact!! 😜😜

I'm as grateful for cellphones as the next person, but sometimes I think about how everyone having a phone on them at all times really did cause us to loose some things as a society. I mean - for example, kids these days will never experience their car breaking down and needing to find the nearest place with a phone they can use. They're never going to have the opportunity to tentatively approach a house only to discover that it's full of queer people having a party hosted by a transvestite to celebrate his creation of a sex homunculus, stay the night, and loose their virginity while unintentionally partaking in cannibalism. It's tragic, that kind of gay sexual awakening just doesn't happen these days because of cellphones.

Reminder that if Trump loses, he’s gone once and for all. He will have lost twice in a row. His initial win seemingly a fluke. He will be in his 80s next time he wants to campaign. Now two presidential rounds out. He is running on fumes atp. His sentencing is pretty soon. One last blow is really just what we need to banish him once and for all.

So many of the critters that take up residence in human homes are simply species that are cave-adapted. Spiders. Crickets. Millipedes. Isopods. Bats. Your house is a cave to them and they think you are also a cave-adapted organism.
