i'm going on an adventure

the setting is also a character. many do not know this but its true. it has a history and a future and often an arc of its own, and the other characters all have personal relationships with it

sometimes it gets anthropomorphized into a character or a divine figure or symbolized by something more tangible like a river or a car or a boat but it is a character in its own right and you should think of it this way

Tokyo Godfathers....

TSA should be required to give a free first-class flight voucher to every single person they flag with their fucked-up bigoted system, and I'm not even close to fucking kidding. I don't care if the individual actually has a bomb on them; they still deserve recompense

This is why I love the “Covid is faked” conspiracies. Like really?? You think the WHOLE WORLD is working together THAT EFFICIENTLY?? Even the countries that hate each other? Wow cheers for the optimism

Look up the manhattan project you dipshits

We’re talking about the Manhattan project that Kodak had clearance to know about (and even got advanced warnings about tests) because they figured it out when radioactive fallout from the tests contaminated their x-ray film? That one?

And that was still just one government using the fullest extent of their power to try and keep just one secret in a time before cellular phone cameras or the internet. Imagine thinking multiple, rival governments agreed to fake a virus to fool just some of their citizens into staying home from work, while also agreeing to pay billions of dollars to compensate them for it.

#the idea that thousands of servicemen wouldn't tell their girlfriends or a random lady at the bar trying to get her into bed about aliens#is the strongest proof we have that the government doesn't have aliens (tags via @rainbowrites)

the weird schrödinger's emotion that is "that character death was narratively satisfying and emotionally impactful and ultimately the best way to handle their character arc" simultaneously with "noooo but I wanted them to live :( :( :("

They could never make me hate you, complex female character whose reaction to trauma was not pretty and digestible like how people think it should be.

As someone who is studying to become a librarian and loves a bunch of punk music, the public library is not punk rock. Punks may use and enjoy one, but be serious. "No, they're totally punk because they're leftist and help the community-" you're in 'charlie brown had hoes' territory.

Libraries are, however, swing revival.

hard cider was invented when someone decided to make beer that tastes good instead of bad
