Finished a Webtoon yesterday, and it was so good that I’m having book withdrawals. Genuinely, the entire day after I finished it I was practically shaking.
scott & joel
would be horrible (incredible)
pleas eplease please please please i need to see them self destruct
gem & jim(my)
sometimes when the others say one of their names i think they're saying the other and then i have to go back to recontextualise the entire conversation for myself
i just think theyre a sweet duo and would be cute soulmates
jimmy final two (real) (not fake)
skizz & lizz(ie)
i like when their names rhyme
though after that guess the build it's questionable whether skizz knows how to rhyme
before wild life i'd just say some of the silliest on the server maximising their joint silliness, but
lizzie wants him dead now. it would be such a shame if he was the one person she wasn't allowed to
impulse & etho
yeah how do you like that bdoubleo100
this time impulse wins i swear it'll for real be this time
grian & bigb
they'd both be sooooo happy
bigb would treat him right
#grumboOUT #scarianOUT #bigrianIN
tango & bdubs
toxic AF
they lowkey are even now after wild life but i dont think thatll stop them from divorcing on live tv
cleo & pearl
most terrifying duo for everyone but gem
they've resolved their past trauma and now they can live happily with pearl's DOTS (Dog Of The Series)
unless,
mumbo & scar
completing the buttercups soulmate circuit as is Right and Just
unstoppable force (mumbo "kills a lot but only when he can die even more" jumbo) vs immovable object (scar's persistent survivability when in grave danger)
ren & martyn
god. i mean. you know i had to do it to them
this time they can die in each others arms
holding each other until their bodies give out
whispering reassurances until they can't speak any longer
Reading fantasy again, I've started thinking about how odd it is how in books like that, the non-human races invariably scoff at human frailty and vulnerability, even those that they'll call friends. Like that's mean?? Why would you be a dick to your friend who you know is not capable of as much as you are, and it's not their fault they were born like that. That's mean.
Like consider the opposite: Characters of non-human races treating their human companions like frail little old dogs. Worrying about small wounds being fatal - humans die of small injuries all the time - or being surprised that humans can actually eat salt, even if they can't stomach other spicy rocks. Being amazed that a human friend they haven't seen in 10 years still looks so young, they've hardly aged at all! And when the human tries to explain that they weren't going to just unexpectedly shrivel into a raisin in 10 years, the longer-lifespan friend dismisses this like no, he's seen it happen, you don't see a human for 10 or 20 years and they've shriveled in a blink.
Elves arguing with each other like "you can't take her out there, she will die!" and when the human gets there to ask what they're talking about, they explain to her that the journey will take them through a passage where it's going to be sunny out there. Humans burn in the sun. And she will have to clarify that no, actually, she'll be fine. They fight her about it, until she manages to convince them that it's not like vampires - humans only burn a little bit in the sun, not all the way through. She'll be fine if she just wears a hat.
Meanwhile dwarves are reluctant to allow humans in their mines and cities, not just out of being secretive, but because they know that you cannot bring humans underground, they will go insane if they go too long without seeing the sun. Nobody is entirely sure how long that is, but the general consensus is three days. One time a human tries to explain their dwarf companion that this is not true, there are humans that endure much longer darkness than that. As a matter of fact, in the furthest habited corners of the lands of the Northmen, the winter sun barely rises at all. Humans can survive three weeks of darkness, and not just once, but every single year.
"Then how do they sane?" Asks the dwarf, and just as he does, the conversation gets interrupted by the northland human, who had been eavesdropping, and turns to look at them with an unnerving glint in her colourless grey eyes, grinning while saying
"That's the neat part, we don't."
“How could you?” “I can expla-“ “No, I don’t mean morally. Logistically how could you even pull something like this off?”

I want to play a game with you all.
You have to make a new word by changing only one letter of the last word.

let's recap what we've learned about the United States in the last few days.
things that are terrorism:
allegedly shooting a healthcare CEO whose company generated more pure profit (not revenue, profit) in a year than the GDP of 94 countries, exclusively by denying coverage to people who pay for it
a 42-year-old mother of 2 using the wrong combination of 7 words during a heated conversation with a call center employee at a health insurance company who was in the process of denying her health coverage.
things that are not terrorism:
mass shooting in a Black church to incite a race war
going to a BLM protest specifically to kill protestors
a neo-nazi running over a crowd of people, killing a woman
targeting and killing 23 latinos in an el paso, texas walmart
killing 12 people in a theatre, shooting 58 others, rigging your apartment with explosives
a QAnon groyper killing 7 and shooting ~50 at a 4th of July parade
killing 3 people and shooting several others at a Planned Parenthood in defense of the unborn
stalking someone relentlessly and then killing them and their child despite months of the victim making police reports
any one of the 1,200 murders committed by US police yearly, the vast majority being minorities
tightening your border while ~100 immigrants (including children) drown every year in the Rio Grande
United Healthcare killing an unnknowable number of elderly people by using faulty AI to deny medically necessary coverage
Aetna killing a woman by refusing to cover her cancer care
Blue Cross killing a 6-year-old by denying her appendicitis surgery
Cigna killing a 17-year-old child by denying her liver transplant
the pharmaceutical industry killing half a million people with opioids in the name of producing revenues in 2023 that rivaled the GDPs of countries like Spain, Mexico, and Australia.
the United States killing 45,000 people a year because they can't access health coverage
make sure you keep this guide handy the next time you find yourself interacting with your insurance company or any other millionaire, billionaire, or an individual who is part of a protected class such as a CEO or president of a corporation.
so sad no one did any lore with real life or really took it seriously and like, i get why, it was hilarious and goofy and ridiculous but also it's not like that ever stopped anyone on the other seasons. And like. The ending really is quite poetic
Like Scott is just standing there on like 1 heart, not eating, just waiting for Cleo to finish him bc as she says he'd never kill her, and Cleo is laughing and fumbling for their sword but truly they don't want to kill him either and then! Just like a zombie assisted Scott in his win and got the final kill on Ren, after the first season where Scott and Cleo really allied properly (so ZombieCleo helped Scott win from the grave), now a zombie sneaks up on Scott and kills him, getting Cleo their win finally like. I know it was only april's fools, and I know no one is as obsessed with Cleo and Scott's dynamic as I am but guys guys it's so poetic, it's so good, where are the dramatic animatics? Please!
A series of events:
1. I put in an Annual Leave request form almost 3 weeks ago and my boss has not approved it yet
2. I went into my office today and replaced every single writing utensil with crayons in preparation for April Fools Day on Monday
3. Whilst searching for pens to remove, I found my unsigned Annual Leave form in my boss’s drawer
4. I placed my unsigned Annual Leave form in a photo frame and put it on his desk
5. The frame I used was from a photo of his kids that I deemed less important than my Leave form
6. My boss sometimes goes into the office on Saturdays to work
7.
@tvvigjuice you mentioned wanting this list.
Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
I'm never leaving this website:
