Trace amounts of Monica in my life

A statistically insignificant level of Monica in my life

My life manufactured in a facility that also processes Monica

I Defeated the Demon Lord but it Turns Out the Demon Army was Largely Unaffected and I Fell Victim to a Flawed Belief in Great Man Theory

I like to think this is the story of him breaking out of prison and then going on an extended spree of mischief

Ahh, it’s back

i have disproportionately strong feelings about this.

okay. okay here's my thing about "tell me the name of god you fungal piece of shit." I like the post, the text has a compelling pace, it got over eight hundred thousand notes for a reason. it's from 2018, and the eco / folk / eldritch horror tumblr genre definitely did already exist then, but it was newer so the post felt more novel at the time. I say variations on the "you cannot kill me in a way that matters" line constantly, I like it, I really do. that isn't how fungus and decay works irl, but I understand the idea being conveyed and can appreciate the emotional effect it elicits, which is really all I'm looking for when it comes to horror media, including social media based horror microfiction. I find the way some people talk about the post nowadays as though it personally Ruined all creative writing circulated on this site Forever and like it is somehow solely responsible for artistic displays of hegemonic christianity to be, like, silly. that is obviously not the case, it's a very "great man" way of analyzing social media trends. this is one person's short horror-comedy prose poetry text post about bursting into tears while trying and failing to shoot a mushroom with a gun. okay. but now, Here. here is My Thing. that is not what "extant" means. like at all. and, again, I understand what it's trying to convey in the context of a punchy one-liner, I don't begrudge the post's author using a word incorrectly, but I think they probably meant auxiliary, external, exiled, or extrinsic. "extant" means "something that exists," what the line actually says is "decay exists as an existing form of life," and if you want to reference it elsewhere then you really neeeeeed to change up the vocab or else you're going to end up saying a line that makes no sense. okay that is all.

the fact that pro-monarchy arguments have degenerated, over the past few centuries, from “the king rules by divine right and is accountable to nobody but god”, to “uhm the royals generate a lot of income from tourism” will never stop being extremely funny to me

the monarchs… bad. but the castles? oh, the castles are positively lush with rats… 👅
