#I needed all the fogs

[transmurderbug]

Picrew!! 😁 Thank you for tagging me, Willow! 💙 @ian-galagher I made EVERYTHING red. Only because I couldn't pass on the dino sweater... Plus I needed ALL the frogs 🐸

I actually (usually... sometimes) look much kinder, but this version of me can't help but space out (probably thinking of all the frogs and the dino sweater) and I always look villainous and confused when I do that 😆 I also could barely choose between The Lorax and Back to the Future, but John Powell's music decided for me (I'm also listening to the HTTYD soundtrack right now, so it was like a sign) 🎵

Tagging some awesome people, to have a couple of my frogs (only temporarily...) 🐸🥰 @juliakayyy @energievie @thisdivorce @sam-loves-seb @starcrossedsoulmates84 @sweetperversiongirl @francesrose3 @creepkinginc

sun hasn’t even risen yet and I’m feeling so emotional about how Dan is living proof that growth takes time but is so worth it and sometimes you don’t work through the hard stuff until you’re well into adulthood bc just getting by took enough energy and you simply didnt have the tools yet and we now know that things got so dark for him and im sure the darkness will come again bc that’s how these things go but now he’s smiling with his crows feet and laugh lines and silly clothes bc now he can love his body enough to put it in silly outfits before going out into the world and he’s goofy and playful and in love and idk guys life can be so defeating and it sure was for him at times but here he is this gleaming imperfect beautiful example of work and growth and acceptance and self love

Sherbet knows she might run into pirates or sea monsters on her voyage, but what spooks her most is the ghost ship rumored to kidnap people. Although she’s relieved to hear that it only takes them for a special reason, she soon wakes up on the infamous vessel without any clue why! Despite her initial despair, however, Sherbet is delighted to find the grumpy but hot pirate, Granita, on board with her. On the other hand, Granita finds hell in the form of the bubbly little terror who can’t seem to keep her hands and innuendos to herself...

here’s an ongoing f/f webtoon that is. hysterical, unhinged, and dumb as hell (affectionate)

sherbet is a young aristocratic lady and huge lesbian on her unenthusiastic way to an arranged marriage, granita is a ruthless pirate captain, they’re stuck on a ghost ship together

the art is really good and the writing is SO funny. like, here’s something from chapter 3

and here’s a follow-up from chapter 4

anyway, it’s primarily comedic with some drama and pathos thrown in for spice, and the tonal shifts can be wild—There’s Definitely Something Deeper Going On and I love the looming threat of plot and sincerity. good for folks who want high energy comedy between two adult women who each think they’re in vastly different genres

(green // blue means two main options, red means i need to think about it more)

The main details I'm figuring out right now are

does Celebrimbor still die at Eregion - I don't think he's getting captured/tortured, but he could still die in the battle. On the other hand, he could probably survive by using Narya & Lomion using Nenya, but that would definitely have repercussions further down the line

how does Idril's deal work - I'm currently thinking of Idril exchanging the location of Gondolin for her family's guaranteed safety, because it seems in character for Reverse Idril? But on the other hand, even if I limit it to immediate family at the time of the oath (tuor, turgon, earendil) then idk where turgon dies? Maybe Maglor can kill him but that seems kind of random

where and how does Turgon die

how does Prince Elrond's character even work

how does Numenor still fall when factoring in Prince Elrond - I'm thinking that the morgoth death cult gained enough traction during the time sauron was there that even after Elrond kicks him out, the cult still sticks around and reemerges later? The Fall still happens, but they never go to attack valinor and there's a good deal more Faithful (maybe 40-60%?)

It’s disability pride month, and if you are disabled in the U.S. from Long Covid I want you to know that you’re not alone, and you’re valid in whatever you feel. Whether that’s sorrow at your new problems or rage at society for failing you, you are valid, and it is truly messed up that society is continuing to fail you.

For some reason, the dnd:hat movie has been living rent-free in my head for over a week. Xenk is just rattling around in there right now, having a long talk with Kira about morality, mortality, personal sacrifice, and being a child who saw the Beckoning Death unleashed on their home.

I feel like Xenk would have a lot to say that Kira needs to hear, and be a good listener for the things Kira needs to talk about that she can't tell her dad or Holga. He'd probably benefit from talking to her, too. Kira almost experienced the same tragedy he did when he was her age. It would be cathartic for him to help her through that, knowing he helped save her from ever experiencing what he went through

"Things in the Dark"

Ominous

indeed!

[byanyan]

okay. okay. it is done.

lmk if you see anything weird or think something should be written better!! also blanket content warning on the bio bc there's a lot of heavy fuckin stuff in there, though it is all marked (i think. hmu if i missed smth). same goes for the timeline but that's all written more matter-of-fact and less detailed so i just slapped a cw at the very top of the page

[cakemoney]

the way it happened is truly everyone's worst fear, and the episode puts a spotlight on what those fears are. k trying to fix something and fucking it up massively. when she airdrops all her stuff, it didn't feel like "k's still thinking about her network etc", it felt like defeat, giving up the work she was doing as itsy for someone else, cause she's lost all confidence in her ability to fix what she was trying to fix. sam tries to help with magic, and her wand doesn't work, and she's confronted with how helpless she is without it. she hosts a show with magic in the name but when she needs it, when she calls for it, it doesn't come, and without it all she is (all she fears that she is) is just being shiny on the outside with nothing on the inside. jammer having less than a minute to feel grief and fear before he just locks in on what he needs to do, where they need to go, because jammer feels responsible for everyone he cares about so he feels responsible for this, he can't face evan's shadow because he can't fail evan again because he's already failed to be there before. and then evan! having to be rescued, being inconvenient and throwing off their mission, and then coming back with no clothes, is the worst! he's so sad about how his presence is making his friends' lives worse because k and jammer can't even look at him, he tried to help sam in whatever way he can and it just upset her, and then he socially trapped sam into assuring him she cares about him. he has to ask a magic goat a question and he doesn't know how and even though the goat ends up giving him the theoretical right answer, now it's disappointed in him because he used a cop out! very bad no good day for evan. man.

Couldn't sleep last night because I was too horny, couldn't stop touching myself until I fell asleep with my hole stuffed and a vibrator against my clit😖

I just rewatched Dan and Phil playing incohearent and I don't think you guys understand how much I NEED Joker Out to play this game.

it would be fucking gold.

[chr0n1c-ag0ny]

I think Bram and Lovecraft should find a (probably haunted) ship that just drifts out in an anomalous and liminal, to put it frankly, odd, bit of sea, forever a drift, surrounded by nothing but fog, no wind, no rain, no waves, no storms, just quiet. I think they should hole up there and sleep for a couple hundred years. yeah. I think that would be nice.

Mood stabilizer has been going at full dose for awhile, so I took my stimulant today and I wanna CRY

[saintadeline]

Bloodborne is seriously the most beautiful game of all time i think about this every single time i replay it but genuinely. Just exploring yharnam and staring in awe at how gorgeous everything is, its never about graphics, bloodborne has a noticeable stylization i think in a way even stronger than other fromsoft games, and the use of lighting and color palettes is just so good it makes me want to Be there. The game is already so stunning as it is ingame but i think having access to the map viewer on my own to the side made me appreciate it even more i love seeing the way everything is constructed and put together with just the flat textures before applying any engines and even as flat surfaces you can just feel the cohesion in the backgrounds, even textureless stripped of everything that makes it "beautiful" it still feels so unique and already gets the vibe across and that explains how the game feels the way it does visually, which is something i think a lot of current gen "high fidelity" games struggle with. Hard to explain what I mean but I feel it. Also i love the slight like chromatic aberration effect bb has on the edges of the screen it adds such a nice touch to the atmosphere honestly. Sighs dreamily
