I, of course, do not know the rule book by heart, and although I understand that 10 seconds stop and go penalty is required for not respecting a double yellow flag, I am not too sure the same penalty applies for a

Green-yellow-yellow-green-blue-green-red-rainbow-white-meatball-blue-purple-orange-pink-yellow-green flag

You know what I mean?

fav thing about that fight is that duck and yellow are very focused on each other during it (throwing blows, almost all ducks lines are just insulting him,ect)

red is just in the bg of that having a COMPLETELY different convo with. himself. its so fucking funnnyyy

So last night I dreamt that for some unknowable reason everything was the same except for my FFXIV free company was a FFT RP group. I apparently had permanent dibs on writing Delita because I was the self-proclaimed world's biggest Delita fan? Also I made a meme and everyone in my dream agreed that it was super funny so now it's everyone's problem.

On one hand: What the fuck, why am I dreaming of FF7/T crossover RP memes? Literally what? I don't even go here. On the other: Honestly, I was entirely correct, Agrias with a gun would probably be able to resolve most of the plot in about fifteen minutes.

(Unless she decided to do what she's been doing in my current and first FFT playthrough, which is 'go stand in the corner and do literally nothing as soon as a combat begins' and I have no idea why her AI is like this.)

that was the worst trial of my life nobody look at me i need to go cry to feel better

[gonfrees]

"egg prices rising gave a huge profit boost to corperations" "cans of vegetables all over $1" "cans of beans all over $1" "produce prices skyrocket" "corporations profits rising" "minimum wage stagnant" "rent increase" "tip your landlord" "gas increase in price causes record profits" I am about to commit a crime do fucking henious.

Ok but like actually the only people we see with copies of The Book That Kills People (to my knowledge) are literal psychopaths. They weren't corrupted they were already powder kegs waiting for a chance to blow. If Light Yagami didn't find the book, he would probably have become a serial killer anyway. If he lived in America, he'd definitely have shot up his school long before the events of the story.

Like, look me in the eye and tell me the moral of the story is "The Book corrupts people" and not "Light Yagami is what happens when an undiagnosed psychopath grows up in a loveless upper middle class household where the sole measure of his worth is academic performance." Things would have gone just as sideways if Light had found a copy of The Anarchist's Cookbook.

The book didn't corrupt him. He got Joker'd by post-WWII Japanese workaholism.

i think i could be trusted with The Book That Kills People from the classic manga series "No One Can Be Trusted With Power Of The Book That Kills People" imho

thinking about how my mom spent like 2 years getting downright vicious about the houseless folks who were camping in the woods past her house (to the point of getting a BB rifle that looked like a real fucking gun to threaten them with when they crossed in front of her house??) and justifying it with White Lady Fear a la "what if one of them does something to me! I am but a helpless white woman living all alone!!" and like...

y'all, she terrorized those people. every single time she saw someone outside, she was riling her dog up to bark, waving a gun in their faces (that for all intents & purposes they certainly thought was real), yelling at them, calling the cops (thank god the 2 rural-ass cops didn't actually give a shit), etc.

and she justified it with fears of womanly fragility & inability to defend herself, and I believe how afraid she was! she talked about fearing they would break into her house at night and sexually assault her, and I believe she was legitimately afraid of that. she's been victimized in many of the ways she was afraid of being victimized by them.

the thing is that it doesn't matter how real the fear is.

nothing ever happened, nobody ever tried to threaten her, nobody tried to break in, nobody even approached her. she initiated every single interaction. when she told them not to go through her yard, they did the best they could to respect that without giving up their camping spot; which was on someone else's property, who didn't mind them being there (not to mention one of them is actually indigenous to this specific land!)

she was a thousand times more threatening to those people than they ever were to her, but her fear of them was still real. and that's exactly what made her so dangerous.

I need cis women to internalize this ASAP. your fear is real, and it can and will hurt others. your fear is real, and it is harmful. your fear is real, and your hurt is not deserved, and you still need to grow & heal & prevent it from causing harm.

Most normal place I have seen a gun: Going deer hunting with a friend.

Least normal place I have seen a gun: Shout out (snide, somewhat derogatory) to the off duty government mystery agent patient who wore his concealed carry into the old cardiology clinic I worked at, so when I asked him to take his shirt off for the scan it was just. There.

Like. Google says it's legal based on state and private property laws as long as there's not any "no guns" signs but like. Sir what the fuck. I'm gonna be a foot away from this fucking thing for 45 whole minutes? I gotta be putting my hands all around where it's at? With my intrusive thoughts????

Clinic is closed now so I don't remember if we had the "NO WEAPONS" signs up, but we sure do have the "NO WEAPONS" signs up at the hospital right now!

purpose of this poll: basically im wondering if my gran having a pistol was a typical american experience

[silly-goobr]

Oh right, I need to post in order to be normal. Hmm…. Normal people things… Oh, I know! You guys like sports right? I like the sports! My favorite sport person is the one with the number on their uniform. A-am I doing this right?

[hakugreenfinch]

huh... the bucci gang never meets sorbet, gelato or melone

[rainbowgod666]

Yeah I heard about this in

Another post entirely

Because people think "born after 1991 = perfectly knows the ins and outs of every electronic system ever" we're slowly going Burning Of The Library Of Alexandria- like yeah I know how to switch from HDMI 1 to TV seamlessly and i CAN place the cables correctly but if you show me a computer that is SO FULL of malware it gained enough sentience to be the Ben 10 charachter of the same name AND tell me "i yearn for death" wtf do you expect me to do

The mechanicus do rituals to make their vehicles function but thats another universe entirely. Its not magic, KAREN. Its literally just math on ultra-hyperspace-mega-steroids AND a bunch of metals and plastics. Like come on
