did you know that all pronouns or genders is an option? steal them all become everything whos gonna stop you?

CONCEPTUALIZATION- Hm... Hold on.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- No. No, no, no no no. We are not focusing on this any longer. This "gender" nonsense stops here!

VOLITION- It'll be good to have the thought cleared. It leaves room for another one to be made.

HALF-LIGHT- Shh! Don't even think about it!

COMPOSURE- It's hard not to, now that it's become a project. It's going on to be on our mind until it's come to its natural conclusion.

PAIN THRESHOLD- It could be good to know.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- Not you, too! What is this prissy shit?

HALF-LIGHT- STOP! NOW! SHE'S ALMOST-

LEOPARD-PRINT BODYSUIT- Privet.

HALF-LIGHT- Grrrrgh! Rrrr! Back off! I knew it, I knew this had to be your fault!

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- It's you! The fruit suit! This is all because he wore you!

LEOPARD-PRINT BODYSUIT- Me? I didn't do anything, you know. He's always been this kind of animal.

LOGIC- She's right. Harry's always had... off-color thoughts about who he was. The suit just awakened them again.

VOLITION- They're harder to supress while he's actively wearing it.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- I don't care what favors you do in making Harry's ass look shapely. Scram before you turn him into one of those cross-gender pansies!

HALF-LIGHT- Bark bark bark bark!

LEOPARD-PRINT BODYSUIT- I can come off. The feelings can't.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- I won't have you making him into a girly-boy.

REACTION SPEED- Why not? We like girls. Boys, too. Best of both worlds, you know.

CONCEPTUALIZATION- Yes... yes! There are options. Choices to be made. Things to put on and take off as easily as clothing. To be worn as accessories. Rules? Who is going to tell us to follow a rule?

LEOPARD-PRINT BODYSUIT- Now you're starting to get it. Doesn't it feel so freeing?

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- I'm not letting Harry turn into some kind of lady-dresser-

COMPOSURE- It won't be all lady, all the time. We still feel pretty masculine.

LOGIC- And, logically, if we can become more female, we can become more male too.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- ...More male? I thought we were already the most male.

LOGIC- Maybe we can become even male-er. Who's to say?

THOUGHT PROJECT COMPLETION IMMINENT GENDER? I HARDLY KNOW 'ER!

Who are you? Who are you? You are a clique of voices, a caucus, a camp. Unbound by space and time. All of them are different from each other, and you are different from everyone else. If they are them, then who are you?

The answer- who knows? Let's just cover every base and say yes. Who is going to stop you? You are the law. And you have other things to think about- like everyone else's gender identity. Quick. Let's go and ask Kim what's going on with him.

This is coming from the same people who want the government to force preteens to give birth.

It's also coming from the same people who judge people for being childfree.

they should invent a being in your twenties in which you do not feel your life is unsalvageable and ruined

[bedupolker]

Do u think the rat guy and mouse lady would try having their own kid? Or are the six she had is enough?

This doesnt answer your question but I think if they did want to try for another litter, going to the rodent OB-gyn would be an experience

[m3djed]

"he would not fucking say that" but you ever be looking at fanart and suddenly its "he would not fucking have abs"

[prolibytherium]

One of my all time biggest pet peeves with historical(ish) fantasy is when the writer constructs a religion with a clear bias that it's stupid and false and therefore only the Stupid People and/or commoners believe in it and all the smart/elite main characters are like, quasi-atheists or otherwise just routinely flout established religious conventions of orthodoxy and/or orthopraxy because they're Too Smart for it or etc.

It's usually an extension of assumptions that people in the past were just less intelligent than in the contemporary, just being like "I know that the sun is a star millions of miles away that the earth orbits, but this ancient religion describes it as a chariot flying through the sky" and not really bothering to learn the context and just (consciously or subconsciously) settling on 'that's a crazy thing to think and was probably believed in because they were Stupid'.

And that whole attitude pisses me off so much. People were as 'smart' 10,000 years ago as they are today. These beliefs aren't just desperate, random flailing to explain phenomena that could not directly be accounted for either, it's not like people just looked at the sun and went "Uhhh I don't know what the fuck that thing is, actually. I guess it might be a chariot or a boat or something?? Yeah let's go with that." and based entire religious practices on this. Every well-established belief system exists within broader contexts of cultural values/subjective perceptions of reality/knowledge systems/etc, and exist as part of a historical continuum of religious practices that came before. Even when not Materially Correct, they have context and internal logic, they're not always dead literal with zero levels of allegory, and they're never a result of stupidity.

Shhhh theyre thinking

The (unintentionally) funniest things in the very serious vampire novel Dracula by Bram Stoker, in my most humble personal opinion

Count Dracula, whose only topic of interest is his own glory as a warlord of times past, dressing up as a servant and cooking, setting the table and folding sheets among other housework to fool Jonathan, probably while muttering to himself 'it's okay Vlad you're still cool you're still cool' over and over again

Dracula throwing a fit at Lucy's window while in bat form like 'You shut out Dracula? You shut him out like the mosquito? Oh, vampirism for you! Vampirism for you for all eternity!'

Dracula, once again at a window while in bat form trying to listen to Van Helsing planning his demise, and being fucking shot at by Quincey Morris and having to flee like 'wait what the FUCK was that???'

On the topic of how trigger-happy Morris is; Van Helsing going on about all the traditional lore on how to figh vampires and Morris saying 'how about we just fucking shoot him' 'yes we'll take that into account too, extra credit'

'oh lmao it's that bitch Harker, can't believe he made it out of my cas- shit he's got a knife' *immediately jumps out the window and flees the country*

Mina, fully and acutely aware of evertything relating to Lucy's death, otherwise the most sensible character in the novel: Last night I dreamed about the creature from hell that lives literally next door and I woke up this morning feeling absolutely awful. I'm sure it's nothing worth mentioning tho

Dracula's demise being larlegy in part due to the fact that he spends most of his time dealing with English bureaucracy and leaving his mail lying around. like the lord of darkness himself sitting in an office to buy a ship ticket, being cryptic and edgy while the worker is just like 'yeah whatever here you go, next' is something that actually happens in the novel

Family portrait. Child is named Minx. Bonus:

Make a stupid uninvited personal comment to a stranger, and get an answer you didn't want to know.

[ask-the-furies]

what are you guys called? like, as a group? like how you can have a flock of birds or a school of fish. what's a group of skills called?

CONCEPTUALIZATION- We're all anthropomoprhpized aspects of thinking processes. Perhaps a "cluster", like a nerve cell cluster in the brain?

ENCYCLOPEDIA- That wouldn't be accurate. We aren't all representative of parts of the brain. Endurance is associated with the lower intestine. Pain Threshold correlates to all the nerve endings on the body...

DRAMA- How about a crew? Or a troupe?

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- We aren't a traveling circus, nancy.

CONCEPTUALIZATION- Ooh, maybe a colony. An independent micro-group.

AUTHORITY- What does that make Harry, then? Our territory?

SHIVERS- Our natural habitat.

LOGIC- Does the answer change depending on the skill family? I elect that intellect skills should be referred to as a "ponder". A ponder of intellect skills.

INLAND EMPIRE- A "sensation" of psyches? An impression?

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT- Physique skills should be a "flex". Or an ice hockey or volleyball team, because there are six of us.

REACTION SPEED- Can motorics be a "whoosh"? Or a "swish". Or a "whizz"!

COMPOSURE- I don't want to be part of a "whizz".

CONCEPTUALIZATION- I'm starting a new thought project on this one. We have to come up with the right name for a group of skills. Otherwise, how will people refer to us?

THOUGHT GAINED: FLOCKS, HERDS, AND SCHOOLS

You know that a group of mallards is called a sord. A group of hawks is called a cask. A group of ravens is called an unkindness. Those are just birds- what do you call a group of bodily and mental functions given personality? It has to be exquisite, perfectly capturing the ephemeral and unknown nature of these furies. Categorize and label what they are, together. That will bring you a step closer to understanding them.

Why do conservatives complain about the price of gas and groceries?

If you don't like the price of gas and groceries, just stop buying gas and groceries.

What's that? That's horrible advice?

Well, that's the exact advice you've been giving to other struggling people since the beginning of time. You've been nonchalantly defending the free market whenever it was harmful to others. You convinced yourself that those who are struggling deserve it until you became one. Then, you suddenly decided that it must be some deep state conspiracy instead of accepting that what's happening to you is exactly what you dismissed when it was happening to others.

ekko describing jinx from his timeline to powder as someone who's just different but whose ideas change the world. jayce saying to machine herald!viktor that his imperfections are a part of everything that made him so admirable. powder getting mesmerized when she sees different timeline!ekko before he leaves. jayce building his whole life around the idea he got from different timeline!viktor when he saved him. love does transcend reality after all

Empurata!Prowl tries to actually communicate for the first time

What if he wants to say something but he can’t. What if he has no voice to speak, no face to emote, no hands to write. What if every attempt to communicate a message is essentially a puzzle of wit and creativity and yet, the first thing he goes through all these troubles for. Is to say “I love you”?

Don’t ask me how did they get in this room. I have no idea. They escaped the battlefield somehow haha
