I nearly forgot this year, but all of you happening froods who reblogged last year’s post didn’t, so here we are.

Reblog every time you see this post

I love how tumblr culture has shifted from people yelling angrily about out-of-season posts to everyone just going “yeah sure it’s Halloween”.

They say that sudden, intense cravings for very specific foods are usually a sign of a vitamin deficiency. If so, that I'm presently making myself french toast, scrambled eggs, and a bacon and cheese sandwich at 11:45 PM must mean the vitamin I'm missing is grease.

I cross-posted this to Bluesky and got followed by a bunch of folks with blog headers clarifying which exact flavour of Christianity they adhere to because they thought I was making a hashtag-relatable post about cheating on your diet. Now we get find out how many of them are also comfortable with posts about werewolf cock.

I'm thinking of Symphony of the Sixth Blast Furnace by Evgeny Sedukhin again...

Hey, remember me? We spawned into beginner village together! You reclassed to Archmage? That’s awesome, don’t you have to get to like, level 60 for that? …Huh? Oh, haha, well, no not really, you know how it is with us village kids. Dropped out of the main questline like, way back. I just sort of play to fish, I’m not very good at combat. I’m doing okay for myself though, I caught a Sea Bass the other day that sold for 10g! Oh, um, sorry, didn’t mean to— no, it’s okay, i get it, daily dungeons are like, super important. It was really nice to see you again

Heyyyy, it's me again! Oh, the dungeon? Yeah, no, it was fine. Pretty standard, and my friends are pretty good at them so it didn't take too long. Sorry for just running off like that, it's just the paladin becomes kinda preachy when we're late for things... Hey, I, Uh... Wanted to ask you a favour if you don't mind? I have been woefully neglecting my fishing skill tree. Like I'm SO bad at it. And there's this thing happening, and I need a special fish for it, and I was hoping... No, no, I don't need you to *do* anything I was just hoping for some pointers? 'Cause it's pretty far away and all... Oh, you do like travel? Just not having to fight? Oh. That's... Oh. Okay. Um... Did you want to... Go to the festival? With me?

I think that if you had enough daughters AND played your cards right you could spring Mambo Number Five out at the EXACT right gathering and shatter your entire family's trust forever

The secret is to name them out of order with the lyrics so by the time anyone catches on it's too late

For me personally the ideal gathering would be my funeral

hello Aesop; how's the underworld been?

Every day I wake up and Hades kicks me in the nuts.

this is my favorite comic ever i never don’t want to see it on my dash

It's fine to disagree with the IAU about the definition of "planet"; however, if your definition includes Pluto but not Ceres, Orcus, Haumea, Quaoar, Makemake, Gonggong, Eris or Sedna, you don't actually care what a planet is – you just want the exact list of nine planets you learned in primary school back. Your cute little Pluto-including orbital distance mnemonic ought to be at least seventeen words long, and good fucking luck with the Q!

My Very Exciting Magic Carpet Just Sailed Under Nine Orphic Palaces, Slandering Hungry Quaker Matrons Going Erotically Southward.

I appreciate that you included Salacia but not Charon – really threading the needle pedantry-wise there.

iy think any planetary-mass object should be called a planet. the moon is a planet. so are the galilean moons. ganymede is bigger than mercury, so whiy not? just because it happens to orbit another planet too? a star can orbit another star, so whiy can't a planet orbit another planet?

Sometimes when I'm feeling especially contrary I'll advocate for a definition of "planet" which includes the inner planets, the trans-Neptunians, and all planetary-mass moons, but specifically excludes Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

My contrary definition of a "planet" is any object that has orbital epicycles visible with the naked eye from the Earth's surface. This limits us to 5 planets and explicitly excludes the Earth.

i have a suggestion
