#weird phrases

[peachesanmemes]

I love phrases like "don't forget to remember" and "for a good time have fun."

Like somehow, they genuinely remind you of a thing while also being completely obvious.

Anyway, if anyone has any more, please send them to me.

Trying to change my writting a little bit to solidfy using 'I love you, and' instead of 'I love you, but'.

I'm not 100% sure why the 'but'has always bothered me so much following that statement. Maybe the somewhat implied idea that the 'I love you'is conditional with that 'but'? I try not to use the line anymore, but it's super saturated and seems to be a default, even though I so heavily dislike how it feels.

Last night in my dream someone said "nothing breaks like an odd glass" and i thought it sounded very wise and Shakespearean, so i wrote it down when i woke up.

Now i think, the odd glasses actually survive way longer, so that was perhaps an ironic statement.

Thank you my subconsciousness, for this food for thought *sipps from an odd glass*

"Runway excursion" sounds like such a fun thing, like a little day trip to see the planes come in.

Apparently it's not fun at all.

happy disability pride month to anyone who has a disability from a condition that “usually isn’t a disability”. happy disability pride month to people with disabilities that aren’t often understood by able-bodied people. happy disability pride month to people who don’t have any official diagnosis yet. happy disability to people whose “labs look completely fine”. wishing you peace this july.

Choose your fighter

Ship names that are a phrase relating to the ship in some way (Ex. ShadowPeach, MatchaBlossom, Boyf Riends)

Ship names that are just the character's names mashed together (Ex. NaruSasu, KilluGon, ZhongChi)

Whatever the Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh fandom got going on (Ex. RivalShipping, KingCrabShipping, SpiritShipping)

"One trip to Greece." Vlad paced back and forth. "Just one, single trip, and now he's bloody missing!" Vlad stopped and threw his hands up in both exasperation and irritation.

Danny hummed, taking a bite from a cupcake (baked and provided by Vlad), chewing, then swallowing. "Honestly, I think you should calm down dude, just because he hasn't called you in what...?"

"5 days." Vlad answered quickly, going back to pacing back and forth.

"...Right. Five days." Danny shrugged. "I'm sure he's just, you know." Danny waved his hand in a vague gesture, of what? He wasn't exactly sure. "Enjoying his time so much that he forgot to call you?"

"Listen, Daniel. It's one thing if he doesn't call me, but it's an entirely different thing if the tracker isn't tracking."

Danny paused, slowly dragging his eyes up from his cupcake to stare down Vlad. "...You put a tracker on your mans?"

Vlad turned to Danny, eyebrow raised and arms crossed. "Of course I did, why wouldn't I?" Vlad wrinkled his nose. "Do shut your mouth, I don't need you to accidentally choke on a fly before you help me."

Danny closed his mouth, staying silent for a moment before shrugging and taking another bite of his treat. "And I would help you, why?"

"Would it not be heroic for you to help someone in need?"

"When the person in question is you? No, not really."

Vlad let out a heavy sigh, squeezing in between his eyes before swiftly turning around and walking towards his super computer. "Two baskets full of cupcakes."

Danny raised an eyebrow. "And?"

"The latest release of Doomed before anyone else."

Danny hummed, and Vlad sighed.

"...And for your two friends as well."

Danny smirked, scarfing the last bit of his cupcake and jumping off the table. "Deal." He over behind Vlad, leaning over his shoulder to look at the screen. "Sooo, where do I need to look?"

"Here." Vlad pointed to a specific location on the map helpfully provided by one of his many satellites. "The last placed recorded before the signal disappeared without warning."

Danny, glancing at Vlad. "You know that it could've just been broken, right?"

"Impossible, the materials it was made from wouldn't let it be destroyed so easily."

Danny shrugged. "Whatever you say I guess."

John Constantine, after months of being trapped in another dimension, finally managed to get back to his own.

Although now that he thought of it, he should've given that guy a heads up, or broke up with him before he left, but oh well. Give it a while and the guy will probably move on anyways.

Not like anything big would come out of this.

What a masterclass of D&D combat from the players and the DM.

Brennan did such a good job of making the combat engaging and dynamic. He juggled so many plates and kept his cards close to his chest regarding aspects no one was aware of until near the end.

The Bad Kids maximized their effectiveness and importantly, they stayed on top of their HP better than they ever have before.

Adaine did some really great spellcasting plus the exploding mephits. Her Bigby’s Hand (or whatever it’s called) dealt solid damage and using it as a bonus action after casting is great. Really helped whittle down the purple worm’s massive HP.

Gorgug took all the punishment from a CR 15 purple worm and beat it after already fighting other monsters. Zac was in crit city this episode and he needed to me to beat that fucker.

Fig got to smite and used Booming Blade and spirit guardians to fuck up enemies basically doubling (sometimes more) her damage output every round (Really effective against the swarms.) and she 1v1ed a Wyvern, which is only a CR 6 but she also had other monsters after her because was disguised as Gaven. Really the mix of hexblade, paladin and bard stuff she did was cool. (Bonus action heals were good.)

Fabian as sort of a floating fighter, getting into the mix and fighting monsters wherever needed was so helpful and his flourishes and using his spell slots for his magical sword were great. He didn’t necessarily get the biggest moments this fight but he was integral and they’d have sorely missed him because he killed a lot of creatures. Not to mention the Hangman’s breath and bite attacks.

Riz doing peak rogue shit with haste and coming in clutch sniping monsters. Saving Gavin’s life, being able to ready an action to shoot from hiding and just all the sneak attack goodness. Plus Murph was so good about the test parts. He and Riz both seem to really thrive in stressful situations.

And Kristen who took her role as the primary healer so seriously it kept everyone up and banished a monster for good. Ally has been far more diligent about using Kristen’s abilities this season and it’s been such a big help. Plus truesight wrecked Killerpally’s plot to fuck them.

And they did all of this while answering timed test questions. This is the best they’ve ever played from a technical standpoint. Bill Seacaster would be proud they took his afterschool lessons to heart.

While I absolutely adore Shadow speaking with 50/60s slang, I equally love the concept of him and Maria and maybe like the five other total children (high estimate) aboard the ARK coming up with their own slang and then Shadow just assuming that slang is universal once he gets to Earth. Catch him saying shit like "don't count the guinea pigs until the testing is over" and Sonic and co. look at him like "????? Shadow what the FUCK are you talking about ????"

[i-like-forcefem]

I’d love to forcefem someone using only loony-toons traps

Roll out of bed? Step on a button triggering a pulley that rips your pyjamas and underwear clean clean off

Stumble back from the shock? Trigger a slingshot that slaps you with a bra and a pair of panties that slip on due to the force (it’s a cartoon!)

Try to take them off? It snaps back so hard you eg pushed into your wall, triggering another button dropping a cute T-shirt perfectly over your head

Stumble around trying to see? Fall over a tripwire through a skirt that gets together around your waist as you slip through it

And then you find yourself in a fem get up scared to do anything, you sure won’t try to take it off anymore

So you’ll maybe open a cabinet to get your toothbrush? Cannon shoots you with a perfect face of make-up

But at least you could grab your (mysteriously) pink toothbrush now

You walk out of your room? Step inside high heels that clamp onto your feet and then stumble down the stairs falling into a kiddy-pool filled with Estrogen gell

Not to mention all the traps I can set at their workplace and on their way to work, all the traps I can make that you’d only ever trigger if you’re actively avoiding other traps…

And just how insane she’ll look to everyone else, of course the traps never activate when someone else could see it, so to everyone else she just looks like a crazy, but cutely dressed, girl

I might even make a trap attaching a fun little bomb to her, which will go off if she ever denies that she’s really a girl (and if the bomb ever happens to go off it will conveniently launch her inside a seat of the closest beauty salon, with her to confused by the blast to resist the full manicure we’ve order for her)

ik we always talk abt how ratio and aventurine are opposites when it comes to aeons (one wants to be seen and isn't, other is seen and hates it) but. it's also interesting to observe how they're opposites with people too. i think

ratio is a somewhat controversial public figure? but mostly well liked. he has some haters sure but his fans and appreciators are louder and more common. he grew up surrounded by people oohing and aahing over his achievements, always a part of a group

and yet. does he have any actual friends? 🤔 literally the only other playable character who has any voice lines about him atm is aventurine. it kinda seems like his only other friends are screwllum and maybe the trailblazer. the other geniuses don't pay much mind to him. iirc in that one keeping up with star rail video where he was announced to be free they mentioned barely knowing him. it's literally just screwllum

meanwhile, aventurine seems to be kind of hated. tbf, he IS a relatively high ranking member in the ipc so that's plenty reason for the average person to dislike him. not to mention his luck is bound to get anyone he's betting against to wish upon his death lol. and idk if that's how he is with just tb or if he's like that with everyone but he also doesn't seem to want to leave a good impression anyway. he grew up alone, quite literally had to kill all the other slaves in order to survive, and ofc, he is the last of his kind. always forced to be separated from others like him.

but. people in his life are generally okay with him. going by numbers, there are currently 7 characters who have voice lines about him. most of them are positive or at least show some form of care or familiarity. he has bonds whether he knows about them or not. people caring about him is why and how he got out of the nihility

and. this is one i'm p sure i have seen brought up before but i think it's important to mention. it doesn't seem like aventurine likes humanity as a whole that much (and can we really blame him for that after what he's been through 😭). but ratio loves humanity to the point of it being a defining characteristic of his, to the point of missing out on what was likely his dream before.

it's an interesting contrast. and it can even add a few layers to the bond between them, too. what it means for them to have it in the first place. how it affects each one of them, and the both of them together as a unit.

Thinking thinking about how each of the ASL brothers had such a simple thank you for the others that held so much weight

Luffy thanking Ace and Sabo for saving him from the blue jam pirates, never having doubts in them helping him regardless of how they treated him. Them not understanding why he didn't rat them out to save his own skin and Luffy simply stating that they're friends.

Ace thanking Luffy for loving him after getting in the middle of a fatal attack aimed at him. Finally getting to recognize the love that surrounded him after so long, something that Ace was never able to see up until he was on deaths door for the crime of being alive. Getting to tell the person he swore to live for thank you as his last words.

Sabo meeting his little brother for the first time in twelve years after getting ripped away from him. Luffy essentially breaking down for the first time in two years with someone he thought he lost and apologizing for not being able to save their older brother. Apologizing for being too weak to get him out of the cluster fuck that was Marineford and having him die right in front of him. Luffy bearing his regrets out just for Sabo to thank him for being alive. Like, yes, our brother is gone and that devastated us both. We might never fully heal from the loss but at least you made it out alive and thats all that matters. Telling him that loosing his two brothers without being able to do anything and ending up alone would be the end of the world for him. Thanking him for SURVIVING the hell he went through.

Gosh I'm unwell

know that it’s not the point of the movie but I really hope they establish ken is indeed barbie’s boyfriend. she doesn’t need to kiss him or hold his hand or say I love you but we need that true devoted obsessed boyfriend + badass girlfriend to be canon because you know Ryan Gosling’s Ken would let Margot Robbie’s Barbie commit war crimes in the name of being a supportive partner

The pimp relationship between David and Marko as described by Alex Winter is so interesting because it implies not only that they've fucked raw nasty but ALSO that David uses Marko to fullfil services- meaning that Marko is probably often used as a lure for the boy's 'prey'- MEANING that the little guy is out slutting it up in the streets for the equivalent of a good meal in this essay I will-
