what's your LEAST favourite herptile? the stupidest frog? the ugliest lizard? no, not either of those. so which one is it?
it's actually the very word 'herptile'. It's like saying 'birdosaurs'.
I'm guessing it stems from people wanting to expand 'herp' out into a longer word that is a noun for the animals we study as herpetologists or are interested in as 'herpers'. But that doesn't really exist. So we get this weird portmanteau of herp and reptile, apparently forgetting the amphibians. Reptibian or Amphibitiles would be better portmanteaus if we actually wanted a reasonable word representing both groups.

A small little poetic angst because why not? Protective_Boyfriend.exe=true/ . Keep her safe in the next upcoming episodes whenever we get them. Hopefully soon. (I hate being left on cliff hangers honestly. Lol.)
Let me know what you think!
I also have commissions open. Prices and rules are pinned at the top of my blog!

y'all stop saying fyodor has never looked so sincerely angry before. he has.
I know this because, and this is not an exaggeration, the vast majority of my manga revisits are to enjoy his expressions of anger, disdain, and malcontent. i shit you not, several of my bsd meta posts wholly unrelated to fyodor were written because I happened to notice something else while flipping through to imbibe fedya's hissy fits. I don't reread the manga when I do this, just those scenes, unless something else catches my attention.
anyway, stop disrespecting my beloved pastime.

Just got a rude reminder about how great it is to never have children/ be an only child.
There's too much drama involved with dying, apparently.
#when grandaddy died. everyone was arguing over this and that. speaking over his widow and trying to plan his funeral instead of her and his#two daughters. three people who truly knew and listened to him. My mom was almost forced out of the first row at the funeral service by her#step brothers. mom and I got cheated out of things that were bequethed to us. and there was a lot of fighting.#my brother died and his son wanted some ashes. Momma didn't know until it was too late bc my nephews mom and her family wanted to start shit#he was not allowed to come with us to the graveyard. they forced him to leave before he could speak for himself.#some old man just died and my mom's friend (who made herself the center of attention at my brother's funeral) just called bitching and#cussin about some body shooting a dog and starting all kinds of shit over dogs and land and all that jazz like#and watching Dallas... both J.R. Ewings are obsessed with money. land. succession. and inheritance. and they always start trouble over that#Miss Ellie's brother came around bc he was dying and wanted to spend his last days with his sister while Jock and Jr started shit about land#ownership. Garrison didn't want Sourhfork even though HE inherited the ranch like. bro#how am I the only normal person in this shitshow?? I have Bipolar AuDHD!?!?!?! I halluncinate! BRO!!#death#inheritance#succession#family drama#ugh#tbh#even if my brother was alive I feel like there would be less drama between him and I.#I think I'd just take what I wanted and leave the rest with him. Is that what Mama wants? Absolutely not...#but I don't care. We can't take anything with us when we go. It'll all end up in a dump. antique shop. or collector's house anyway#none of it matters#most people never leave a mark on the world and THAT'S OKAY! we don't have to be remarkable to have worth right now#everyone will die when it's time for them to... no need to kick up a fuss.#the land might end up ruined or sold to the government or developed into something amazing. so what?#you're dead! IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU WANT!! that's the beauty of it all!#the shortness. the finality of it all. Life's too short for bullshit. You gotta party like it's your last day. every day.#one of the most rebellious things we can do in the fave of facism is to live true and unbothered (i know it's difficult)#if They want to suffer. They can. Don't submit in advance! I believe in Hope. It's all we have#I'll get my top surgery in time. I'll make my transition! I'll pick a name!! I believe in a future where We can live happier!#because I love humanity! I love the Earth and everything she has to offer. The endless beauty of living in spite of it all

wanted to figure out all RB's scars collected throughout her time in Hisui and i accidentally ended up making a proper ref sheet for it oops. this is what she ends up with after a year+ of wandering the wilds and getting attacked by crazy megafauna, and it's not even including all the injuries that DIDN'T scar, like countless bites, scrapes, bruises, cuts, etc, or ones that leave no mark on the skin, like a badly rolled ankle, a broken collarbone, psychic whiplash from tanking too many confusion moves, soul deep nerve damage from Ghost-type overexposure, etc
a lot of these are covered in the outline of her story i've got plotted out, but i'm sure when i sit down to actually write it as prose there will be more that pop up

Literally kills me that Hoffman, Amanda and Lawrence straight up have the oldest/middle/youngest child dynamic.

look I don't know why people are being bizarrely defensive over preferring campaign 3 to past campaigns. and honestly I don't really care. but it is very funny. we're watching the "every past campaign has been building up to this, the villain was set up in C2, one of their greatest allies is a PC from C1, two characters were built explicitly as Campaign 1 callbacks" campaign. The heart wants what it wants but I can't really see anyone enjoying Campaign 3 let alone preferring it without at least having a great deal of respect for both past campaigns.
