#SAY NO??????

i would just like to say my bg3 run has put my little hopeless tiefling bard through the wildest few days

first she got unexpectedly and intensely hit on by lae'zel despite seemingly pissing her off at every point by being too nice

while reeling from that, that night a hot lady appeared to her in her dreams and told her how special she was

after spending a day clearing out an evil swamp karlach comes over and in no uncertain terms makes it clear she also would like to get it on if not for The Fires

reeling from that she and the others kill a hag and gale decides it's a great time to come clean about his shall we say ill-fated romantic escapades and his little orb problem

trying to sleep on that issue, karlach brings up cooling off and a very tired ryse, inspired by how we used water barrels to fight the fire in the rest house, attempts to just throw a water barrel at her. ...and is just about strong enough to pick it up and still walk but her little scrawny lute-playing arms are too weak to throw it, so ends up shamefacedly putting it at her feet and shooting it with an arrow instead. it still sort of works and she manages a kiss. and karlach specifically is like btw if you also want to get it on with the hot alien lady i am fine with that, have fun.

sure enough, later that same night, lae'zel absolutely wrecks shop on her

and in the morning astarion goes full gay best friend and demands to know all about it

I find it so funny, in light of TikTok’s imminent American demise, that even now they aren’t considering moving to tumblr. The last two social media refugee crises (Twitter -> X and whatever happened with Reddit) prompted a wave of wide-eyed new baffled tumblr users to flood this app and yet last I heard all of the tiktokers are flooding en-masse a Chinese social media app. That is entirely in Mandarin. Instead of moving to tumblr.

I cannot believe there's absolutely no way to watch free shows and movies anymore, there are too many paid streaming platforms and pirating websites have viruses and ads preventing you from watching it uninterrupted((.)) click away because I’d rather follow the rules and purchase media moving forward because it is too inconvenient. Seriously, free and no ads or viruses with 1080p streaming is DEAD.

speculative fiction writers i am going to give you a really urgent piece of advice: don't say numbers. don't give your readers any numbers. how heavy is the sword? lots. how old is that city? plenty. how big is the fort? massive. how fast is the spaceship? not very, it's secondhand.

the minute you say a number your readers can check your math and you cannot do math better than your most autistic critic. i guarantee. don't let your readers do any math. when did something happen? awhile ago. how many bullets can that gun fire? trick question, it shoots lasers, and it shoots em HARD.

you are lying to people for fun. if you let them do math at you the lie collapses and it's no fun anymore.

if you're subscribed to Microsoft word, you probably received an email recently saying they're upping their prices. Like, a lot. ($9.99/month instead of $6.99)

guess what though? you can log into your account, click Cancel Subscription, and get the option to continue your subscription at the same price WITHOUT their bullshit AI.

That's right, the new, higher price is actually a different subscription that includes AI that everyone is being opted into by force! What a cool and fun product that clearly everyone wants.

you can also choose to buy Word 2024 without AI for a single lump sum that will be yours in perpetuity, with no updates, for one computer.

Check your subscription if you need Word for work! Don't get duped into paying for something you might not even want

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!
