Free protein lol

Inspired by 1) my childhood dog, who would immediately start chewing faster if anyone noticed him eating non edible things and 2) my brother, who ate a beetle that one time for no other reason than to prove he could.

We also had a moth infestation once when I was a kid, and every time I went to check if the cereal was covered in moths or not, that same brother would tease me to eat it anyways for the extra protein >:p

My childhood dog was a big ol’ Rottweiler! Lovely dog, so gentle even when my ten year old self was trying to pry paper towels out from between his teeth lol

How old even are you? Part 2/2

Part 1/2

Oh, poor Mikey. According to the good future comic, there isn’t even a reason for you to age like milk. I’m so sorry for your hair loss

I know there’s a lot of angst about the future timeline, but what if they’re all a little goofy silly about it lol

Also I bet that it’d be way funnier if Casey started getting really cryptic about the future. Like imagine how many pranks he could pull. Guy was taught by these ridiculous turtles who in turn were raised by Splinter, half of their lessons are just practical jokes and dares lol

"The shift from the Afro-Caribbean zombie to the U.S. zombie is clear: in Caribbean folklore, people are scared of becoming zombies, whereas in U.S. narratives people are scared of zombies. This shift is significant because it maps the movement from the zombie as victim (Caribbean) to the zombie as an aggressive and terrifying monster who consumes human flesh (U.S.). In Haitian folklore, for instance, zombies do not physically threaten people; rather, the threat comes from the voduon practice whereby the sorcerer (master) subjugates the individual by robbing the victim of free will, language and cognition. The zombie is enslaved."

there’s probably something to say about this

100% normal thoughts about this guy in particular

[joygression]

One of my favorite subtle cosmic horror elements of The Amazing World of Gumball is that secondary characters are terrified of being boring.  It sticks out, because it'd be more expected for kids to worry that they're "annoying" or "not cool"... boring is an odd choice of descriptor.

In The Storm, Carmen temporarily breaks up with Alan because she fears their "perfect" love is becoming boring.  In The Colossus, Hector is sent over the edge by Gumball telling him he's boring.  Clayton admits his reason for habitual lying is because he's a loser, and all of his true stories aren't interesting.   Tobias feels like he should be entitled to a sidekick and exciting adventures, because he's rich and colorful and he's earned them, and yet his life is mundane.

It's not like they know what happens to you if you're too boring

But maybe they've got a sense of it in the back of their heads.
