Thing: *signs* "Ok, I'm going to ask a very serious question that will determine whether you like Enid or not"

Wednesday: *suscipious*

Thing: *signs* "If Enid were to go out with Ajax romantically, how would you feel?"

Wednesday: "That she is making a mistake"

Thing: *overly ecstatic*

Wednesday: "She could do so much better than him"

Thing: *signs* "Then who would be the right person suit for Enid"

Wednesday: "Someone who is able to protect her. Able to ensure she is safe. I believe Ajax is too afraid of his own shadow, let alone what lies outside of Nevermore's gates."

Thing: *signs* "Do you believe you are able to protect Enid?"

Wednesday: "Redundant question, but yes"

Thing: *signs* "So why don't you just admit that you like Enid then?"

Wednesday: "... because I wouldn't want to lose her like I did with my pet scorpion"

'Trapped in the end!' said Sam bitterly, his anger rising again above weariness and despair. 'Gnats in a net. May the curse of Faramir bite that Gollum and bite him quick!' 'That would not help us now,' said Frodo.

Sword in hand Sam went after him. For the moment he had forgotten everything else but the red fury in his brain and the desire to kill Gollum. But before he could overtake him, Gollum was gone. Then as the dark hole stood before him and the stench came out to meet him, like a clap of thunder the thought of Frodo and the monster smote upon Sam's mind.

Now he tried to find strength to tear himself away and go on a lonely journey – for vengeance. If once he could go, his anger would bear him down all the roads of the world, pursuing, until he had him at last: Gollum. Then Gollum would die in a corner. But that was not what he had set out to do. It would not be worth while to leave his master for that. It would not bring him back. Nothing would.

Sam and vengeance in today's entry

this is the information that we had about D dog. that's the info on her page (put through a translator, but its accurate) regarding how she is with other animals, and during the interview reactivity was only mentioned as a possibility not as a known fact about this dog. only dog? no problem. no cats? even less of a problem. potential for reactivity? sure. it can happen with any dog. known aggression towards other dogs? why the hell are you waiting for people to apply and go through a fucking interview before letting them know a week later that they're not fit for this dog and that that's the reason why. all that does is give people false hopes and upset that could be avoided by clear, direct, honest communication of a dog's issues/challenges. i heard about the specific language/way of wording things shelters and rescues use but i had hoped it wouldnt be a universal thing, at least not something i'd experience myself. turns out i was wrong!

maybe im being immature and unfair to these people, they probably dont all have the same amount of knowledge of the dogs and communicating all that inbetween volunteers/workers/and us can be difficult. but im angry and im allowed to express that ffs.

Knock on wood, but I think this has been one of the most peaceful and pleasant birthdays I've had

Too hot to go to the outlet mall like usual and I don't feel like going anywhere really so we're just chilling at home and I gotta be honest, it's pretty great

[memecatwings]

honestly the one piece worldbuilding lore is so so so fascinating but the problem is that you only ever get crumbs of it for 1070 episodes you get nothing but crumbs 1070 episodes in and there's still only like one slice of breads worth of crumbs forget the whole loaf this is maddening im opperating on theories and assumptions here im in platos cave looking at shadows you cant do this to meeeeeeeee

Willa really goes from

“Shame.” She watches them for a second, watches the realization wash over their face. Their muffled yell gets cut short when she smashes the butt of the gun against their temple, sending them to the ground. She knows she should have pulled the trigger—it was them or her after all—but she just… couldn’t do it. What did that make her? Weak? A traitor? What would she do when it was them or her?

to

The sound of gunshots, screams, and curses echo behind her and there’s a twinge in her stomach. Guilt. She pushes it down, down, way down, until it’s nothing but a passing flutter. She can't look back and she sure as hell can never get caught. Not again. Not even if it meant throwing someone else under the bus to save her own ass.

Goes from not even killing peggies to throwing civs under the bus in order to buy a few minutes of time to escape

Considering their IRL counterparts, we think there's a very good chance that since Heart was Rad God's previous host, while she got transmitted to Mad Rat via bits of her in the heart tissue. There's not a whole lot else going on in that operation besides the heart transplant, after all, and we doubt that the doctor had any extra contamination around to potentially transmit her. We know that she says she lives in rats, specifically, but there's One Specific Protozoan she's based off of, and cats are the definitive host o f Toxoplasmosis Gondii.

Given the givens, it's entirely possible she simply doesn't present the same symptoms cross-species, and a symbiotic host that offers more benefits to her just... won't experience the same trip, especially since trying to feed your cat host to a cat doesn't really offer any benefit to either of you. With Heart, he's probably either asymptomatic or just only experiencing symptoms that don't particularly affect his day-to-day life, possibly in a way where he wouldn't have even known he was playing host to a parasite if it wasn't for the situation with Mad Rat.

Would it be weird for him to be... aware of that, postgame? To know that he's carrying a parasite with the potential to majorly fuck up any rats that might contract it? Is there a proper way to react to the knowledge that you're carrying a hallucinogenic parasite in you that'll cause major issues for any rat you might infect? Would he even, like... figure out the whole "asymptomic/mostly asymptomic carrier" thing before later? These are the questions we really need to ask.

There's something called the SoCal Challenge, where you go to the beach in the morning, the mountains in the afternoon, and the desert at night. Totally doable apparently, and people make it a tradition to do it every year.

Huh, that sounds cool as hell!! the desert at night sounds really pretty, idk how bad the light pollution is out there but it sounds like somewhere you'd be able to see the milky way fr.

also a big fan of the beach at night, its otherworldly if it's dark enough and you're not from the coast. i went to the beach last summer and made a point of going to see the crabs come out at night and BOY HOWDY it was almost impossible to avoid stepping on them bc it was like. almost too dark to see our own feet and they really blend in with the sand. ANYWAYS the point is the beach is really something else at night.

S2E7... Was that a frown of recognition on Shadows face at Nine? 👀 Does he, maybe, see some of his old self in him?? 👀👀👀

[strayslost]

i've seen the theory that fyodor's essentially going to "possess" sigma so to speak in varying different places now and i am so scared. and kind of excited.

[youmakethelight]

OBSESSED with this scene between them. 🥺🫶

Also, she is Sooo beautiful.

And side noteee - ezekiel out here calling his full ex-wife and mother of his adopted child and woman who he "will never stop loving" his friend. Bc you don't have to be one or the other - someone tell the spinoff showrunner.

I have to admit, though. It feels special. After all we’ve been through, as close as I came. I got a fresh start. And it was important to me that my friend know just how much I appreciate her. It must feel really really good.

I spent quite literally one [1] hour with my father and now feel like absolute shit. Unironically how does he do this [i am impressed]
