Oh my god "canaries should stay above ground" was a literal warning wasn't it. Like Freddie picked out a statement for Sam that had the closest thing to an appropriate warning in it, not in a metaphorical sense (well maybe partially) but in a literal sense like "listen to me. Don't go in the basement. Do Not Go In The Fucking Basement." Unfortunately nobody could reasonably be expected to decipher that without our outside perspective. You tried, Freddie.

trying to explain to a friend whose never read dune that dune is a series where basically every unhinged thing people say about it is actually true, unlike other media, on account of the source material also being unhinged. in this case significantly more unhinged than we will ever see on the big screen because it would tear apart the fabric of modern puritan conservative society in the west

... this is specifically about the feyd rautha and paul atreides yaoi phenomenon. which i actually didn't even fully realize the implications of when i was reading but... man. it's true. they really were literally designed in a lab to fuck nasty. until jessica decided yaoi was more important than the bene gesserit freak program

anyway everyone should read frank herbert's 1965 cocaine eugenics freak show dune

Remember the Great Poptropica Hoax of December?

I remember how upset we all were :(

At least it wasn't real. But I still can't believe the troll pretended to be the official Poptropica creators on Discord for a full year. Why did they do that? What was their motivation? Did they have something against the Poptropica community, or the PHB (the ones who run the discord) specifically?

Strange.

I never know what to say when I tell someone my age and they say that I look younger like. I'm not gonna thank you that would be stupid

[macro-microcosm]

Yeah, that's about what I expected

guys I had this realization the other day that Redwall works really well for reading aloud, and kinda half-remembered something about the author reading to kids? So I looked it up to see if I had made a connection.

And it turns out, yes, actually, because he read aloud to kids at a school for the blind. But all the books they gave him to read were depressing. So he wrote Redwall, a story about heroism and courage and making it through struggles, and filled it with so many sensory, visual details so he could give them something better and I just-- that's so wholesome-- help

still ruminating over Lost In the Book With Spooky Skeletons Part 1, so here's a selection of some of my favorite little bits! (...some more loosely paraphrased than others) (I just feel like Idia has no room to criticize in general, okay)

anyway, I'm sure we're just going to have a fun time celebrating Halloween and nothing bad is going to happen whatsoever! :)
