Howdy :)

wait, you're gonna hunt me for sport? aw, damn, I'm not really into sports. can you hunt me for arts and crafts instead.

It's been said before, but I love how every Discworld character is a hero of their own story and a roadblock/antagonist/annoying twit in everyone elses. William de Worde is a great example (he's a bit soggy even in his own story but so are most Disc protags): he's fighting for truth and justice, dismantling evil political plots... and in the Moist and Vimes books he is the most annoying man alive. Vimes is a very strange man when you're not in his head. Granny Weatherwax can be inscrutable and overbearing when you're not in hers. Etc. Etc. Etc.

last week my doppelganger trapped me in the basement I keep it imprisoned in and took my place in my life. fortunately after the first day of this it came down and asked to have the basement back. Probably a good sign 👍

This morning I was looking at my wife with dreamy eyes and she was talking about something nerdy and cute and she saw me looking at her and stopped and reached down and pinched my cheek and said “now we’re crab married” and all day we’ve been pinching each other gently and saying “crab wife” and that’s what love is tbh

"why are so many leftists disabled" maybe it's because disabled people don't really care for the "kill all disabled people" parties but who can say

Do you have anything with that kind of texture that he can safely play with? This sounds like an understimulation issue.

Not guilty by reason of deficiency of other people’s stuff

Narratively speaking, ending this saga with the reveal that his name is Orange Sherbert was a masterstroke.

... how many hearts are in the vet office

Even an orange cat is right sometimes.

forget everything anyone has ever told you on the matter the truest marker of adulthood is starting to hear the siren call of high quality kitchenware

to be clear you SHOULD buy that cast iron pan and you SHOULD buy that knife set and you SHOULD buy that fancy rice cooker and you SHOULD buy that novelty mug. high quality kitchenware is always worth it you’re literally gonna be using that almost every day

Great advice

I've probably posted about this before but it still gets me that Ripley (my parrot) has a special nickname for my spouse, Tev. Like he knows and uses the names of everyone in his flock (me, Tev, Steve, and Cheese. also a couple of our friends and my mom's dog) but because Tev calls him "Ripley buddy," a couple years ago Ripley started calling him "Tev buddy" instead of just Tev. He doesn't call anybody else buddy. He knows that 'buddy' is a special suffix for him and Tev to use with each other's names because they love each other. Doesn't that just melt your fucking heart
