There's a Straw in my Ponytail

-Replacing his vitimens with poision

- getting her brother to invite him out onto his boat and then killing him and dumping him in the ocean and saying he got drunk and fell off.

- get tboned with him in the passenger seat and then once he was in the hospital theres all kinds of easy ways to kill him like not washing my hands after a poop and then touching his wound casually.

-replacing his drink of choice with moonshine!?

- take him on a hike thats locally notorious for a rapid otter attacking hikers and once he had rabies I could just kill him any ol way and say self defense.

Ah, I read an article just the other day about how Hollywood was going to learn the wrong lesson from the Backrooms and Obsession, and it turns out that they've have jumped to the conclusion that the winning formula is getting someone from Youtube rather than... y'know, original content?

Like folk who are on Youtube who have broken out into other forms of media (Red from Overly Sarcastic Productions with her comic Aurora, for example) were working on said other projects for literal years learning the skills and such before getting picked up, just assuming that Youtube popularity (especially considering how the algorithm can be gamed) can translate over without the talent to back it up can lead to potential disaster.

Granted there are some folk who I'd like to see break out into wider, mainstream success (the folk at Team Four Star for example, with their having broken out into live-action sketch comedy and short films) but for every Aurora or Backrooms you run the risk of it being purely just for the fans... and that sometimes doesn't translate well? See the Roosterteeth movie Lazer Team for one example.

PROPAGANDA:

[Yue Qingyuan]

"The Sect Leader should get pregnant because the Sect Leader should be the picture of fertility and virility both, boost the usage of male child-bearing pills, and because the whole Sect would go crazy trying to find out who's the baby daddy. I think Yue Qingyuan could benefit from having to raise a child of his own instead of managing disciples, because Yue Qingyuan no longer has a family of his own and deserves one, and this way, perhaps he'd be forced to care about another person again. His strong and qi-rich body would also have an easy pregnancy and have a strong and happy child."

"The ultimate family man, the #1 wifeguy, wouldn't it be a joy for him to take some of the burden off his wife when the time comes to grow his family? (And shhh, everything is fine! Canon won't happen if we close our eyes and write fix-it fic instead)."

I went to but my 6€ ticket to go inside and read all their informational material and admire their scale model and the guy in the ticket book was like “you know it’s just this one room, right?”

eyes hit serious diminishing returns wrt resource costs vs vision quality as they get bigger, so the question became: what the FUCK do giant (and colossal) squid need to see so badly that they couldn't see with swordfish-sized eyes that's justifying that massive energy cost? that nothing else in the deep ocean needs to see so fucking badly??

turns out the one strength eyes that big really have over much smaller eyes is: seeing large glowing objects in water deeper than 500 meters from an appreciable distance.

sperm whales are the primary predator of giant squid. sperm whales don't glow. BUT! water that deep is full of bioluminescent creatures-- these creatures light up when bumped into. something a sperm whale's size is continuously bumping into those critters, it's just surrounded by a glowing field all the time when it's swimming at those depths, visible from a distance-- if you have the right eyes-- as a massive glowing shape. so basically the only reason to have eyes the size of soccer balls is if you live in the deep ocean and your life depends on having a heads up when a hungry sperm whale lurking around
