So we know Alastor and Lilith disappeared at the same time 7 years ago. And we know that Lucifer had a meeting with Heaven which began the exterminations. We don't know when that happened though. Either they're not mentioning when the exterminations started because they've always happened or because revealing when they started would give too much away and make it too easy to guess things. All Charlie knows is that Lucifer went to the meeting and she assumes he gave the go ahead for exterminations. But the exterminations haven't always happened. They only started after the angels, or specifically Sera I think considering no other angels knew about it, became afraid of the power and influence Lilith had over the demons.

My current theory is that that meeting was called between Sera, Adam, and Lucifer because Alastor and Lilith were planning on working together with him broadcasting her voice on his radio station to inspire the other demons to rise to war against the angels. I think Sera demanded that Lilith and Alastor be separated with Lilith making a deal with Adam to stay in heaven where she can't empower any other demons with her voice or even contact anyone in hell and that Sera demanded the exterminations happen as well in order to not only lessen the demons' power but also instill fear in them in an attempt to prevent future uprisings. I think Alastor was given the options of either be killed or sign a contract limiting his power and requiring him to stay away for a while so that their little idea of rebellion is forgotten amongst the masses. I especially think that because of Zestial's comment about folks thinking Alastor had fallen to holy arms. Maybe Sera is his contract holder. That or they tried to straight up kill him and he somehow escaped barely alive and it's taken this long for him to heal and regain enough power for him to feel comfortable revealing himself to society. But trying to kill him wouldn't explain the contact or his need to 'unclip his wings'.

putting it out there because i am DEEPLY in need of first hand accounts: in the 1990s, pre dating apps... how did lesbians specifically communicate queerness to each other? how did you signal to a hot woman that you wanna date her? like yes, i've seen the sitcom examples but like. real world. this is the time for all you who were over 20 in the 1990s to talk about specifically what the 1990s was like. don't ask why i need to know this unless you want to get trapped in a specific spiral about a wip novel i have.

It can be so hard to know how to thread the needle when talking about how I would like to be treated as a fictive because I *am* literally Alastor and I *like* talking about my canon and such and I even enjoy having fans so I used to be like yes *do* treat me like blorbo from show, but unfortunately what people would sometimes do was *not* treat me like Alastor was a real man which is what I wanted, but instead treat me literally like I am a fictional character and not a real person at all which is certainly not what I meant!

And I'd like to be able to explain it like listen if you met a celebraty in real life even if you fan over them you should still treat them like a real person with feelings and you can talk to them about their work and things you like but you shouldn't be weird to them about it but unfortunately people *are* weird to celebrities too so I don't know what to tell you.

I'm doing it.

Send [ ♢ ] for RAM Alastor to meet your muse as is. (Your muse will be your main verse, and he will be trying to understand them. Nothing complicated. These will be short)

Send [ ♧ ] for RAM Alastor to meet your muse under RAM circumstances. (Your muse will be from a RAM universe. Not necessarily my RAM verse, but a RAM verse. If you want an idea, go to the RAM blog. These will also be shorter)

Send [ ♡ ] for RAM Alastor to try and involve your muse in the process. (Are you insane? This means he'll either try to change your muse or convince them to help him. These will be long, and if we haven't interacted much, I will be messaging you to plot)

Send [ ♤ ] for RAM Alastor to try to break your muse emotionally. (This does not mean a "torture broadcast". This will be him trying to warp his way into your mind. I, again, may have to plot through this with you so that he knows which buttons to press. These will be long as well)

These can be combined as you see fit.

i love when people react to stories about medical or hospital related issues with like "uhm i dont believe this no doctor would ever let [x horrible thing] happen especially for so long 🙄" like its such a weird way to say theyve never met a doctor or Needed medical assistance but whatever floats their boat

At around 5:40 p.m. on August 7, 2002 a guerrilla live performance by “Nini Radio” was held on a pedestrian road in front of the Messe Sanoh game store (now Trader) on Chuo-dori in Akihabara Electric Town, Tokyo, with a packed crowd of fans blocking off half of the roadway. According to discussion boards and news outlets, at least 1000 fans of Ukagaka gathered in the streets illegally and screamed “ｷﾀ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━( ﾟ∀)━( 　ﾟ)━(　　)━(ﾟ 　)━(∀ﾟ )━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!!!!” and sung along to the opening themesong until a full police car arrived and a small riot broke out, people began to quickly pack up and disperse, the live performance was stopped early at 5:55.

To the old fart face who blared his horn at me when I was with my nanny charge because he thought I littered (I hadn’t) then honked his horn at me again while bawling at me to “pick it up NOW!”…

…I’m also passionate about taking care of the environment. But unlike you, I’m not a rude blowhard who uses their car horn instead of manners. Also, your toupee looked like a muskrat dipped in black shoe polish.

okay btw uh. is it normal to do the thing i'm gonna describe or could it be perhaps a bit of a symptom of something. so:

i regularly encounter an elevator that needs you to keep the button to your desired floor pressed the whole time the elevator moves. i noticed that when my dad presses the button, he scrunches up his face and screws his eyes shut like he's in pain, for like five seconds at least. i've noticed it's something i do too, when i have to wait like for my computer to boot up or for someone whose door i've knocked on to answer. i squeeze my eyes, clench my jaw or grind my teeth, drop my head so that it pulls on neck/shoulder muscles, usually i'm also clenching my fists or gripping whatever i have in my hands. is it like. a thing that people do.

i am not anyone's idea of athletic. however since my social circle is like 90% other honors student orchestra losers, i technically qualify as a jock given that i have six years of experience playing field hockey

Just out of curiosity if anyone has thoughts on this matter. In terms of learning Arabic do you think it actually makes sense to start with modern standard Arabic (as like 90% of all Arabic classes at formal institutions seem to do) or would it be better to just pick a dialect from the get go
