#i just know it'd eat

[thisshitisridiculous]

let's fuck shit up and have buck get hurt but specifically because he pushes eddie out of the way

buck self-sacrificing connoisseur "i was just the guy standing there when it happened who couldn't do anything to protect him" gets to do something about it this time, gets to step in front of the line of fire or sees the path of a car to push eddie out of the way (foreshadowed by him pushing gerrard out of the way and denny saving mara) and finally actually give his life to save someone he loves, to save his family

eddie denying himself joy trying to find an adequate punishment for everything he's ever done only to finally let himself off the hook, finally allow himself to let go and find joy for himself only to then be faced with the ultimate punishment, losing his partner all over again, only this time it is his fault it's all his fault how could he think he could have this, how could he think he deserves something good, he has to save him, he has to he can't die he can't

Prompt 299

Hear me out- Ghosts have wings. They have wings, which are affected by their cores, and can make them disappear from sight if they want or need to. You got that? Good. 

Ecto-contaminated people? Don’t have wings. Liminals and Halfas, who have developed cores? Do have wings, and they can’t hide said wings, because unlike ghosts? Their bodies are physical living flesh. 

Now Gotham? Ecto-contaminated, there’s no doubt about it. The amount of portals that have been opened there and death pits and death cults… yeah it’d be surprising if it wasn’t. But again, no one really notices, because at most? Most just get a bit of eyeshine. 

The Bats however? Oh man are they freaking out when they wake up with aches in their back and feathers starting to poke through their skin. Curse? Nope! Welcome to Liminality, enjoy the second puberty of wings, emotion-sharing, fangs, claws, and whatever else you might develop- also enjoy the whole eating fear thing. (Wait, the what-)

Hey y'all! My brother is going to be briefly cat sitting for our mom soon, and I think it would be funny to hide dozens of tiny ducks/turtles/whatever around her house, but I have never lived with a cat and I am kinda concerned about the cat eating them wait to be clear, not real ducks or turtles, I mean like mini rubber duckie type things Anyway, do you have cat advice? Minimum size to prevent cat eating it, what material should they be made of, things like that? A place to buy them? edit: I hadn't been planning on normal size rubber ducks, I'd been planning on the super mini ones that are like half an inch to an inch long, but it sounds like there's a chance the cat could eat those? Like, not likely, but possible. If not rubber duckies, what other small thing could I hide around my mom's house for her to be finding for weeks to come? Plastic coins? Ball pit balls?

oh, i'm absolutely deleting this, but - and i'm saying this with a beet red face - i've made so many jokes about my voices being cute girls and shoujo characters that i've been wondering if anyone would be interested in like, a dating sim with them...? it'll probably be more story-focused than anything romantic but (gestures wildly)

For you. And Harding. And everyone we've lost.

rye 'I want varric back you son of a bitch' ingellvar showing up to the narrative stricken to the core with grief and digging two graves. one for the dread wolf. and another one also for the dread wolf because by the time rye is done with him that fucker is hopefully going to be in several pieces. lucanis hold my shovel for a moment would you I need to commit some acts of grim violence and deep poetic irony (*supportive lucanis voice as rook grabs the fake dagger* go get him rook I've got your shovel). solas I'm sorry I love you but if you were going to pull that shit you probably should have done it to someone a little less like, well. you

I think of so many stupid shenanigans between Wriothesley and his daughters in the Addison Lee verse. They tell Wriothesley crazy shit all the time, their daddy-daughter secrets, and it drives Neuvillette nuts that Wriothesley won't snitch.

Sigewinne, whispering into his ear: Today at school I punched a boy because he was being mean. I waited until it was recess, and made sure that no one was watching, and I punched him. Everyone knows he is a liar, so noooo one believed him when he cried about it. And Sigewinne is aaaalways a superstar so Mr Vautrin didn't suspect a thing !

Wriothesley, mildly concerned: Uh huh.

Sigewinne: Papa would say Sigewinne has to be nice to everyone, but, Sigewinne thinks bullies need to get punched sometimes, b'cos, b'cos otherwise, they think everyone is just gonna let them be mean

Wriothesley: Y'know what. That's fair

was watching springwatch last night and there was a rly cool thing about the capercaillies and trying to help them repopulate via providing carcasses for the pine martens (who were successfully reintroduced) so that they'll eat that and not the capercaillie eggs. and thats very very cool if itll work. also 3 birds 1 stone, because you can use the invasive deer for food, feed the pine martens, and protect capercaillie nests all in one

as fun as it is figuring out the different roles different species could fill in animalia society i forgot a very important role outside of society and that is The Horror. Absolute fucking menace. like yeah most everyone already hunt each other to survive, but these guys act on instinct and without mercy and cannot be reasoned with. they are quite literally animals, and EVERYONE runs from them no matter who you are

may i offer the kingsnake for such an entry!!!! they naturally feed on other snakes and are known to be super active and food driven so i could see their evolution opting for a less civilized route, taking on the body plan of their prey to hunt them more effectively

i'm super motivated to cook and bake again lately and that means making food people can eat. i don't have a ton of people in my house so i'm thinking about how cute it would be to put extras of things in boxes and set them on a table at the end of my driveway for people to take for free. seems like a win-win tbh

if losing weight was simple and obvious we wouldn't have to have teams of nutritionists meticulously crafting weight-loss programs based on taking advantage of extremely specific and obscure biological processes and that still have like a 95% failure rate

a lot of the talk about Bushnell is reminding me of my "the "mentally ill" have their right to violence revoked" thing again

like. When you're deemed mentally ill, suddenly you must stress how you are more likely to be a victim of violence than a perpetrator to be deemed as human. Because any violence you commit, as a crazy person, is bad. It cannot carry rationale, because you are crazy. If I, as an autistic person, hit someone who was hurting me and got in legal trouble, I can be referred to as just "crazy" instead of as a victim responding to an aggressor. It's an underdiscussed area of dehumanization.

And that's before we talk about intersectionality, and before we talk about how this factors into the idea of ODD, and the "violent" responses patients have to doctors (including those who simply aren't white, and those forced on meds that hurt them, and those resisting sexual assault, and-).

But this is not just interpersonally political, it is political at scale. Black men were targeted by schizophrenia diagnoses during the Civil Rights era (and this is also around when schizophrenia became a "scary" illness). The crazy cannot have valid political criticisms, as a movement (remember that being "crazy" is a vector of oppression abd marginalization) or as individuals in other movements.

Ive seen both the sentiment of "oh Aaron is gonna be slandered as crazy" and exactly what the sentiment warns of- "we can't valorize suicide from the mentally ill". And the first isn't wrong, because society at large does view the "crazy" as lacking political agency, but it's lacking.

Bushnell had been trying very hard to get out of his military contract without being imprisoned at best, while witnessing genocide and knowing he was complicit. He may not have had clinical depression normally, but that would inspire a mental rational response of situational depression (and yes, mental health issues can be a rational response to horrible circumstances). Further, I know of instances of self immolation that WERE done by people who did have long standing mental health issues and were done to protest the treatment they'd experienced that caused them and that resulted from their existence. Mental illness and divergence from the norm is more complicated than just "these people are incapable of rationality, they are incapable of political thought, and they are incapable of agency".

((I think I still have a few things in the queue left, but aside from that, I might take a small break for a few hours or the rest of the day. Idk. Maybe it's just me being hungry, or it's my abandonment insecurities spiking on here again. Idk

I'll try and force myself to eat something. Idk. Sorry for the negativity.))

Hey y’all! Does anyone else have issues with beetles flying into their hair? I have short hair, and went on a walk with four relatives who all have longer hair today. None of them had any beetles even attempt to fly into their hair. I had three beetles hit my head at high speed (for a beetle). The last beetle I brushed out of my hair with my hand and let it crawl on my hand so I could show my niece a cool beetle, and the darn thing bit me! It didn’t do any damage or even hurt very much but still! The audacity! lol Idk if it’s the hair length or the fact that my shampoo has lemon juice in it* but uh. I am very confused. These are like 1/2 to 3/4″ long beetles. I would like them to stop attempting to merge with my scalp.  *citrus is one of the few smells I can usually tolerate with my asthma and it smells nice
