you know. thinking like about numbers now, after seeing a few posts about this. if you’re getting a lot of attention on your fics you will still be you, still going to work every day, still hanging out with the same people, still living the same life. and if you don’t get a lot of attention on your fics you will still be you, still going to work every day, still hanging out with the same people, still living the same life. so the only difference between getting a lot of attention and less attention is the answer to this question: Are you having fun writing?

talking entirely character wise. do you think today was a bit of a wake up call for bad. do you think he heard red screaming out of their minds begging for toxic gas and thought about how they’ve lost their minds just a little bit. do you think that when he was given an immediate no when he asked where the red egg was to help them defend he understood how deep of a rift he created. do you think as he sat there silent while the rest of red cheered at killing the egg statue, he wondered if he could have pushed them a little too far. do you think that maybe, just maybe, with the red sun beating down on him in that desert, the gas mask team cheering and dancing, he felt for a single moment the consequences of his actions? that maybe, if he hadn’t started out so hostile with extreme tactics, if he hadn’t been so bloodthirsty and ruthless, if he had had just a little bit of hesitation, that his own attempts at diplomacy would have gone over better? that the rest of the teams would have listened? that red would have trusted his judgement on the egg statues, or at the very least respected him enough to honor an agreement? do you think he realizes that burning his bridges may have fucked him over?

while aaravi remains firmly within "yeah miranda has a difficult personality and isn't very easy to get along with + has many rough edges which are slowly being worked on but still going to be an issue" after having been very much so within the camp that miranda is a Vexing Bitch upon first contact/getting to know her, she DOES go from "miranda is unpredictable and dangerous as a merfolk and large macropredator and her emotions are inscrutable and random" to "merfolk aren't very hard to understand or predict and it's very easy to stay on the safe side if you keep basic rules in mind and don't freak out the second something unexpected happens"

SUPREMELY frustrating that we found something actually really cool and intriguing and plot relevant in tonight's session but I'm still so constantly preoccupied with whether the DM is going to 100% kill us with sheer poor game design that I barely have enough brainspace left over to even enjoy it

today is a day to lay in the middle of the floor and use my phone to pretend there is nothing wrong or scary going on in my brain

the next month or so is gonna suck ass at work and by extension the rest of my life is going to be a little more stressful but there is such a light at the end of the tunnel so it is okay and I am going to survive

Tropical Royal Flycatcher - Onychorhynchus coronatus Both male and female birds possess a large and brightly colored fan that is generally red for males and yellow for females, although variation between individuals seems apparent. The impressive fan inspired their Latin species name, corona meaning "crown". Information is limited on whether their impressive display truly serves a dual purpose: both as a factor in sexual selection, as well as a startling warning to would-be predators. This paper examines a few hypotheses. In either case, there is no question that to see their brilliant coronet in all their vivid splendor is a rare treat, as they, like many Tyrannids, keep their crowns mostly hidden.

The Greens: Start a war because they can’t accept a woman on the throne and want to elevate themselves, constantly went after this woman’s reputation and did everything they could to make her life hell before usurping her, kill her young son while he’s on a peace mission, kill civilians to hide the king’s death. The Blacks: Respond to this. The fandom, somehow: Both sides are bad! No point arguing morality! They’re all war criminals!!!

Like. Crazy how in the US military service is the only way to guarantee you get healthcare or education or employment services or political consideration, which are things a lot of industrialized nations have for all their citizens. A real fucking shame that we made Starship Troopers in the 90s but after the Iraq War we make shit like Rebel Moon and turned Star Wars into Marvel and and Star Trek into James Bond. Fascism really won the propaganda war. People really believe Iraq was some desert backwater full of illiterate fanatics because they’re too stupid to know it was a thriving urban center for thousands of years until the United States violently deindustrialized it in the Gulf War.

had the mitch trade meltdown the day after our last game when everyone was being stupid and just yesterday realized its not gonna happen bc our generating is hugely dependent on mitch’s playmaking, not too mention hes our best defensive forward by a MILE and i doubt kyle or any real professional vaguely familiar with the leafs organization would take such a stupid gamble 😭 even considering it outside of purely hockey matters him not being in the locker room might actually affect the team (and austons contract which im not even saying in a shippy way 😭) in a way im sure the actual staff working there recognize… so dw too much about twitter GMs they do this every single year bc mitch doesnt look or act like the average hockey player and men are weird about it lmao sorry for the rambling i hope u have a good worry-free day 💗💗

OH YOU'RE A SWEETHEART... thank you for the reassurance.. i mostly haven't been worried so far...

... i know it all just gets swirled up on twitter and ppl waste their bored summers without hockey coming up with 498329423 trade proposals instead, but today the unhinged energy really was getting to me a bit. it's just the way so many ppl who seem so normal during the regular season suddenly are 100% on board with having him gone.. or even pushing for it when all the quotes from ppl in charge aka kyle are just like 'we'll consider anything' like. fair weather fan much?? jfc. it would be the most idiotic move to get rid of a franchise player like mitch... a play driver AND one of the biggest voices and sources of energy in the room... for the sake of... what... "changing the culture"?? the same culture that makes auston matthews want to be part of this team? i will admit, i love how even the haters are like 'gotta worry about matthews if they trade 16 tho :/'.. youre damn right you do lmfao. if either one of them gets traded or leaves.. i gotta think i'm gonna have to root for the franchises collapse... a cup drought double what it is now.

Sal??? well now i have a fourth letter to work with. thank you for the brain dump i'm going to be thinking about this all day, it will become distruptive in tonights d&d session.

actualy speaking of d&d do you think Salamander-Neo plays it?

a fourth letter for me & you AND extra brain worms to feast away at us how beautiful how beautiful 😇💛

and thats an epic question ive considered ever since i roped bryony into my main oc squad. she likes to host as DM for new players, and in this case i'd guess many of the gang are new players bc its not exactly smth theyd be drawn to on their own. its just a bonding activity fae pushes on them LOL. one of these days i'll actually do smth with that idea in more detail </3

natty does grate against other ppls rules generally but i do think they like rp, it just usually gets played out in their various attempts to make up online personas. so this would either be a one time thing they get sick of, or accidentally become a fixation. who knows i rly dont

also if u think emet is strictly a pillow princess i dont think u quite understand the character im sorry. especially after EVERYTHING? lolll

I got invited to a kind of get together / birthday party thing earlier this week which sounded fun, but also kind of really triggered my anxiety (I know why, but that doesn't make it less annoying), so I decided not to go and let the people who invited me know, and now I'm anxious about whether they think that was rude. I hate this brain.
