build greatness and die ordinary

I love it when a classicist has clearly gotten so lost in the BCE sauce that their perception of time has become deeply warped. Case in point: the article I’m currently reading just described the Byzantine era as “a period relatively modern.”

In hindsight, it was my fault for assuming that my recollection of bad* [tumblr]* posts was in any way typical.

and then you get to the hospital and the doctors try to kill you

God forbid women do anything

Reading about an arsenic murder case in which probably a daughter killed her mom with poisoned clam chowder but she was acquitted because the defense were like “can you prove that ANYONE wouldn’t die after eating takeout clam chowder delivered by children in August? In 1896?” and the jury were like no yeah fair point I too have had clam chowder stomach

masturbation is evil not for any puritan anti-fun reason but because it has permanently claimed so many verbs

nobody can crank anything anymore. and god forbid you jerk

turning off rbs at 75k btw so get your last reblogs in now

A problem with a lot of folks' speculation about how Deltarune is going to end is that they're treating all meta brainfuck indie games as basically interchangeable and anticipating some sort of Void Stranger level ass-pull even though literally nothing about the game's narrative structure to date points in that direction.

Like, I'm not saying there's not gonna be a swerve, but there are levels of fuckery. "Rudy is the Roaring Knight" okay, sure, let's go with that. "Town is a simulation running on a computer in Undertale!Alphys' basement" you have played too much Animal Well.
