*looks at polyamorous triad* so which of you is the soldier and which is the poet and which is the king

STOP telling me when people are typing. it's bad enough i have to figure out how not to interrupt people in verbal conversations and now we're doing it in WRITING????

One interesting element of being a part of a conversation consisting of multiple ADHD people is the backtracking. At some point you realise you're all talking about granny oil wrestling or trying to remember what lobster blood is made of, and you all just go "wait, how the fuck did we get here?" and then you all start retracing your steps to figure out what you had been talking about before, and how it led to this one, until you get back to how you jumped from normal conversations to how one would logistically arrange an ostrich brothel.

We all have that one guy we hate doing night watch with on our ship

"I swear to god i just saw something" Ohhh my goddd

does anyone have the pokemon sun and moon(?) screenshot of dialogue options thats like 'i like something i can't mention!' 'i like bad things!'

characters whose sexuality is "i'm under way too much stress to figure that shit out rn"

character whose gender is "im probably nonbinary but im on a quest so idrc about that rn"

gotta Google something

ok yeah this is funny

Watching my 60 year old uptight southern white teacher brace herself to say it to a room full of ninth graders is one of those memories that remains crystal clear even years after the fact

It's nuts how common it is to not allow children to be angry, even (especially) in households where adults are angry all the time. As a child I knew my own anger was unacceptable--not just expressing it outwardly but feeling it at all. So now as an adult my immediate reaction to my own anger is often to feel guilt instead of like. Noticing when someone is being rude or unfair or my boundaries are being violated or whatever. fucked up.

love when the mutual takes the mutual bait. yes that post was for you. yes it was about our lil guy. thanks for falling for it. I love you

I think people misunderstand "x fell first, y fell harder " trope because it's not about like the one who fell harder loves the other person harder. It's just that the one who fell first falls in a graceful way, one step at the time, maybe gradually over a span of time. The one who fell harder smashes trough the air, there's blood everywhere, everything is fine-

I feel like starfish are one of those animals that are treated as very “normal” by people but absolutely shouldn’t be. Like they’re a wheel of repeating heads connected by a central stomach. They walk around using thousands of tiny sticky hydraulically powered tentacles. They have an eye on the end of each arm. Instead of having a mouth they just have an opening where their entire stomach can be pushed out to engulf prey. And they’re just allowed to exist like this. It’s not illegal or anything.

can i kick the hornet’s nest. i could not give less of a shit if someone headcanons, or writes fic about, or draws fanart of, etc. a trans character as trans in a different way than they canonically are. in the same way thay i could not give less of a shit if someone writes a queer character as queer in a different way than in canon. for one, genderbending is a staple of fanfic already, it’d be weird to exclude trans characters from that, even if benevolently meant. and for two, literally nothing any fanwork can do can change the source material. they will still be trans in canon in that particular way. so who cares. go hogwild.

remember how utterly inescapable how i met your mother used to be with the memes and references and barney and bro code and wait for it... and then the finale was so hated it vanished overnight

The finale so successfully erased the show from public consciousness, that when people tried to come up with a name for the "extremely popular show with finale so bad that people just immediately stop talking about it" phenomenon, people called it... the Game of Thrones Effect. HIMYM got memoryholed so hard that people forgot it even existed

in my little pony universe youd go to a job interview and theyd be like so how does your cutiemark reflect your dedication to this position. And every time youd have to spew some bullshit about how your cutiemark of two tennis rackets actually means youre a team player and good at multitasking and view the market like a playing field. or whatever. and you wouldnt even get the job

Thanks to Equestria v Sugar Sprinkle, cutie mark interview questions are considered hiring discrimination, so if anypony asks you any cutiemark related questions or even alludes to any questions about your cutiemark such as "In your own words, describe your life purpose" you can and should refuse to answer. Know your rights, ponies.
