An unstoppable spiral of vaguely connected hyperfixations

"there is no way you're not using chatgpt for at least a few things here and there no matter your stance on it" what the FUCK are you talking about

This isn't even a joke it's just what we do

@macavitykitsune IS THIS THE WAY YOU LIVE?!

EXTREMELY BOLD OF YOU TO ASSUME I AM SURVIVING THIS BUT YES. YES IT FUCKING IS

Tbh it never registered as odd at all until I tried telling an American friend that something was X hours away

On a personal level, the pool temperature thing is the most baffling apparent-consensus measurement thing. (Cooking instructions these days increasingly come with both Celsius and Fahrenheit, so that's gotten less bizarre at least.)

The pool thing is throwing me for a loop. Are you saying you use different systems to talk about the air outside the pool and the water inside? Surely the point of a knowing a pool’s temperature is to directly compare it to the temperature of the air around it

You would THINK, but apparently liquid temperatures and air temperatures have to be formally segregated. Or something!

@valoniel look!!

@tippedoverteapot for your current mood tag!

I'm a pacifist like institutionally but I'm absolutely certain that violence solves at least some problems on a much smaller level. I don't believe in wars or nuclear weapons or military campaigns I do believe in the power of that guy who punched the nazi in the face so hard his entire media presence immediately crumbled to dust

Every time an author reassures readers that the smut is skippable I sigh a disappointed sigh. This is not a reassurance. Why would anybody who likes smut want to read smut that was only included as an afterthought and has no impact on the narrative? Insulting. Just don't write it at all if you're not going to make it matter.

still thinking about wolf 21

There’s a longer excerpt here, which is quite a read. Long live Wolf 21, a legend among wolves.
