I just love love love that there’s a guy wandering about Dungeon Meshi going, ‘but what are the socioeconomic and geopolitical consequences of this fantasy quest adventure, both while it’s ongoing and after its inevitable completion?! The skillset required to find and kill a Mad Mage is different than that required to responsibly, benevolently and effectively rule a kingdom. I personally must either find a good candidate, somehow make one, or, most likely, take on the whole Mageslayer/King role myself.” Except he doesn’t have the first skillset, and his whole party keeps dying while these highly competent chucklefucks wander past, kill and eat the monster, and save their bodies for the nth time. Kabru would demand to know if Aragorn is familiar with Gondorin tax law. His isekai energy is off the charts, because this is all exactly what I would do if dropped into a fantasy quest adventure, right down to repeatedly dying due to not actually being suited to the genre conventions.

After all the fascist and proto-fascist assaults on American democracy over the last few years, I feel obliged to remind y'all (especially the constant Debbie Downers who have been telling us This Doesn't Mean Anything and predicted Trump would get away with everything) that a jury of 12 ordinary citizens having the power to criminally convict a former (and aspiring future) head of state is still a fucking big deal.

I saw this on FB today and I wanna try and express something about it. Like, you know the curbcutter effect? Where when curbcuts are put in it benefits everyone (bicyclists, people with baby strollers etc) and not just disabled people?

There is also whatever the opposite of the curbcutter effect is. And this is that.

This isn't just anti-adhd/autism propaganda... this is anti-child propaganda.

Kids have developmentally appropriate ways that they need to move their bodies and express themselves and sitting perfectly still staring straight ahead is not natural or good for ANY CHILD.

Don't get me wrong, I was punished unduly as a kid for being neurodivergent (and other types of kid will ALSO be punished unduly for it... Black kids come to mind) and thus UNABLE to perform this -- but even the kids who ARE able to perform this type of behavior are not SERVED WELL by it. They don't benefit from it.

This is bad for everyone.

The idea that bc some kids may be capable of complying with unfair expectations, those expectations don't hurt them... is a dangerous idea. Compliance isn't thriving. Expectation of compliance isn't fair treatment.

idk who needs to hear this but

DO NOT KILL YOURSELF TO "HELP YOU SHIFT"

Late night doodle- Shadow insisted on helping Brenda make breakfast, but quickly realizes he’s not the best chef…

ok actually I am still thinking about chim as buck's best man at the buddie wedding. he obviously accepts bc it's what he DESERVES but he complains to maddie every single day about how annoying buck is and how he hates this wedding and hopes it goes terribly. meanwhile he is planning the perfect bachelor party & making sure that all of buck's insane demands are met. maddie's like "you could tell buck that it's too much like it's not too late to back out" and chim's like "no I'm going to be the best best man this town has ever seen"

THIS IS YOUR SIGN.

Stop procrastinating getting your dream life! Stop waiting for the "perfect moment" to decide on what you want. Stop putting off the decision for a "better day/time" when you know that the only time is now. Better yet, stop pretending that you don't know what you want. It might feel like you don't know, but that isn't the truth; deep down, you know what lights you up, what puts happy butterflies in your stomach, what makes you want to jump and dance and sing. And you can make those things a reality, right now, as soon as you decide. So do it. Go within and find the answer, right now. It's there. It might be underneath a pile of desires you don't actually want, or desires that you think you should have because someone told you that you should have them, but don't actually want. And yes, it might take a bit of digging, sorting, and holding-up-to-the-light to find the truth. But no amount of effort needed is any reason to continue putting off manifesting your dream life.

You don't have to be afraid. You don't have to feel guilty. You don't have to shame yourself for taking so long. All you need to do is go within and figure out what you want, now. You've been given a brilliant, beautiful gift by finding the law, and there is nothing to be afraid of. Go!

the Disney TVA gigaleak is insane

Amity was going to be an exchange student to the human realm? Sasha was going to have glowing green eyes? Sprig was going to be voiced by Thurop Van Orman? there was a Beverly Hills Chihuahua show??

Transcending platonic or romantic affection is the camaraderie of sneaking food during boring meetings or state dinners

Walking was important, Vimes had always said, and because Vimes said it Carrot believed it. Walking and talking. Walk far enough and talk to enough people and sooner or later you had an answer.
