Skizz accidentally uploaded his Past Life episode 4 a day early and the juxtaposition of these comments made me laugh

we Need more characters in media who are disabled just because their body did that. having disabled characters at all is so rare and usually they were injured in some disaster and they Should still exist but like !! as someone who slowly became disabled for no apparent reason. i want character like me, too

I never saved anything for the swim back.

firm believe that not everything happens for a reason, sometimes things are just cruel. and they shouldn’t have happened and it’s not supposed to be a lesson because we never deserved such thing.

Disabled people with potentially hereditary conditions aren't being "irresponsible" and "immoral" if they want to have kids. To insist that a certain marginalized population inherently "shouldn't reproduce" regardless of individual circumstances is literally eugenics.

choosing to allocate spoons to hanging out and having a good time at the cost of perfectly completing all your work is not a failing it is in fact an act of survival. “too sick to work = too sick to play” is in fact ableist bullshit that you don’t have to buy into. and the fact that leisure time is treated like a privilege is a fucking travesty

you know what infuriates me the most about the way people talk about kris and toriel?

growing up as a depressed teenager when your parents love you is so unspeakably painful, because the moment you start to grow up and get better and have a chance to look back on the past with clearer eyes, you realize that for every attempt at connecting you shot down, every conversation you reluctantly got dragged into, every time they prodded at your loneliness and pushed you to make friends, for every way they tried to help that didn't work because you were too broken and ontologically bad and sick in the head for it to stick... your parents spent years of their life suffering alongside you, worrying themselves to rags, helplessly watching their kid suffer because they lacked the ability or the knowledge or the medicine to make it better. but because they didn't lack the will (because they're good parents and they love you) they just kept slamming themselves against the wall between you, hoping something, anything would one day reach. because they just want you to be okay.

if you see a child go hungry because their family struggles to put food on the table, if you see a mother at her child's sickbed holding their hand and wiping the sweat off their brow because she can't do anything else to take the pain away, you would never blame them for "failing to provide what their child needs". so how the fuck do you watch toriel run around hometown day after day, asking for information or anything that could make kris feel better because she's one of 2 people total who noticed something is wrong, when the reason they're hurting to begin with is that they're possessed by a god and probably doomed to die..... and feel anything other than pity. for both of them. how do you see them as anything other than victims of very tragic circumstances. why does this fandom always treat the phrase "toriel is a nuanced character" as synonymous with any of this being her fucking fault

PSA for Google Docs Users Migrating to Ellipsus

I figured out the simplest way to import a GoogleDocs document into Ellipsus that doesn't involve using a third party site or converter:

In your GoogleDoc: Click the File menu, then Download, and then choose the option for Markdown (.md).

---

It's that simple. Ellipsus has an option to import Markdown files, and it worked great. I started with this monster fic because it is the largest file I have. Ellipsus converted it fine, and I didn't even lose my formatting or headings. 😮‍💨

I'm gonna have to look into getting an external HD or a big flash drive, just to move everything to from the cloud storage at some point, as my Chromebook does not have the space for me to store everything on it (well over a decade of writing).

The kid will cherish this for their whole life. If they remember it.

the phrase “gooner behavior” needs to be obliterated from human speech. the fact that so many folks let anti-porn and anti-sex work dipshits get into their ears to the point that choosing simply to publicly exist in proximity of any expression of outward sexuality is treated as toxically immoral behavior is… frankly fucking sad. the people that want a chaste internet don’t have to socially police us anymore because they tricked you into doing it.
