We need a TD character who likes to copy the funny parts they've seen on the show. For example, they thought it was funny when Scary Girl rode the jackhammer like a maniac, so they decide to do it too just for fun.

When it comes to love as a spiritual manifestation, it is an experience of utter surrender to that which is greater than any concept of love can define.

i'm standing in front of you, galloper thompson as a character concept held underneath one arm, drenched in blood and fury in my gaze. SSO HQ is burning in the background. I disappear never to be seen again. Galloper thompson lives a long and happy life far away from the fuckfest that is star stable online with the rest of the community. the company never recovers. sso becomes abandonware.

The Immutable Goodness: A Philosophical Tribute to my Late Aunt Barbara
From what I've experienced, at the core most of us have a concept of what it means to be a good person that's remarkably consistent. It becomes apparent with certain types of people, like my aunt Barb. I don't believe anyone who ever met the woman believed she was anything other than a model human being--or the closest you could get to a purely good person.
And so there are traits in people like that which are so self-evident to our innate human condition that it cuts through all the excuses we make, all the justifications, all the rationalizing we do to give ourselves slack that directs us down rather than up, and which commands that we refuse "the game" of life--its persona that we've built--wherein we make of ourselves pieces and trot out our petty tactics and maneuvers against one another, pretending there's some kind of virtue in mastering the theater of it--of claiming our affectatious victories.
It seems to me that we know what is good, at least at some depth within us, but in the shallower fathoms we permit the waves to carry us away from it, and we rationalize that we cannot be blamed for how these waves move us; our nature, we argue with some desperation, excuses us.

The Ideal
i am old, and i am young at heart
i am bonded to a platonic life partner with whom i live. we have separate beds and separate rooms. she cooks and i clean and we have at least one (1) room that is a library and at least two (5) cats.
i am also bonded to one or two part-time romantic life partners. yes both part-time and life partners, because we are bonded for life but at regular at intervals not just all at once for an indeterminate time. with one of them i may or may not kiss/do sensual stuff and the other - if they are there - i would not. other than the occasional sleepover, i would not live with my romantic partner(s) - i would live with my platonic life partner.
instead of having or adopting children, i become an aged mentor queer and shelter and guide and love baby queers. i become the neighborhood queer grandpa, except because i am of the digital age the whole world is my neighborhood.
when i die, i am cremated, and i am given to the wind.

I made a comment on Reddit. Just going to post it here (it's my personal opinion and it's not one I'm too attached to. Don't judge me too much):
(Under a post about someone disliking Calvin and Hobbes) Peanuts is much better. I never enjoyed any other comic strips as much as I enjoyed Peanuts. Garfield, Calvin and Hobbes, they all pale in comparison to Charles Schulz's masterpiece. Schulz did what all these other people claimed they wanted to do, but he did it better. If you want to read anything, read Peanuts.
