this entire time i've been imagining undyne and asgore in the shelter are being kept in like green bubbly tanks and i just now realized i have literally no reason to believe that
like i see art of asgore and undyne in the shelter and i'm like "haha that's cute even if it's not accurate because they should be in green bubbly tanks" but this idea is literally based on nothing it just formed in my brain somehow and i never thought twice about it
well it's only natural

Mentors in Deltarune are either a dead old man or an anime twink trying to fuck your dad
Alternatively:
I have a new standard for the level of haterdom to aspire to, and it's Reddit User KismaiAesthetics, who hates doing laundry so much that he got really good at it, so that he can (I quote) do it right the first time, every time, and get back to watching cat videos on the Internet.
and by "really good at it," I mean that he does a bunch of reading on the chemistry of laundry, subscribes to academic journals about laundry, and buys a bunch of different laundry products (including from outside the US) to scrutinize their ingredients and test them for himself. he writes a bunch of incredibly detailed longposts about his findings on /r/laundry and his website, which is also about laundry. he even got interviewed about his laundryposts, in which he revealed he's writing a book about laundry. this man is like ahab and the white whale, if ahab had a reddit account and moby dick was a pile of clothes with cheeseburger stains on them
anyway the reason I encountered this guy was because recently, the household washer has been leaving these gross little oily brown flakes on anything washed in it. this is kind of a big problem for me, given that I not only have (literal, diagnosed, medicated) OCD which includes a contagion phobia, I also sew a bunch of stuff with the intent of gifting or selling it, and sometimes that involves prewashing fabric. only, you know, washing is supposed to make things cleaner, not dirtier.
and my research brought me to (gross photos warning!) Kismai's post on the very topic. apparently this stuff is called "scrud," and it's basically a residue that forms over time inside the nooks and crannies of a washing machine - leftover detergent reacting with mineral traces in tapwater to form a buildup that also traps dyes, grease, and other dirt, which bacteria then feeds on, because it wasn't already gross enough. it forms faster if you have hard water, use too much detergent (which most people do), use fabric softener, wash only on cold and the list goes on and on - point is, scrud is the reason that you have to actually clean your washing machine, or be super fastidious about how you do laundry.
(I'll take "things I wish school/my parents actually taught me" for 800)
so now I am engaged in a lengthy battle against scrud, armed with a tub of oxiclean and a sack of citric acid crystals. (we're renters, so disassembling the machine is out of the question.) pour in a scoop of oxiclean, run a machine clean cycle, pour in a scoop of citric acid, run another machine clean cycle, all while wiping piles and piles of scrud out of the drum at the end of each cycle. I'm on the eighth cycle now. there's still so much scrud. the reddit record for "how many cleaning cycles were needed to get a machine entirely free of scrud" is 22 cycles. help
hey so like
it turns out that laundry sucks significantly less when your clothes and sheets and etc actually come out of the machine looking, feeling, and smelling clean, rather than looking, feeling, and smelling like despair dipped in slime

funniest part of undertale/deltarune being inspired by earthbound/mother 3 is that at the end of mother 3 all the characters turn to you, the player, and say thank you for playing our game! thank you for helping us! thank you for talking to us! we love you! please take care of yourself! please take a rest! please love yourself! and in deltarune chapter 4 kris beats you with a hockey stick
i like how with the naming convention established by the other flowers, it would make WAY more sense for "Flowery" to be called "Gold", but nope, Toby Fox went with "Flowery" for the specific purpose is dealing 4d8 psychic damage to every single deltarune fan
Hi I’m back here after Toby confirmed this was literally his EXACT thought process
seeing people be surprised by Toby's latest bluesky post (where he shows that he wrote ralsei and flowery's dynamic 10 years ago) is shocking to me, because i thought it was common knowledge that toby basically finished all of deltarune's story in 2016 and refined it mid-2020
(this is from his twitlonger 2018)
and then 2020 newsletter
this is 100% a story that's already finished, he just needs the game itself made and he's been waiting years to see his dream come to life, like no wonder he keeps talking about how he feels like he's been chained to a chair at the bottom of yokohama bay all the time fjdkdnksks. he's been possessed by this demon for so long and is finally able to get it out to people!!!
chapter 5 being something he thought about for 10 years and finally managed to manifest is so inspirational too. the whole 'thank you for watching my dream' sequence is the culmination of that and man 🥲🥲🥲🥲
I love chapter 5 so much and I honestly think it has so much heart and soul poured into it for this very reason. it really was someone's dream come true
this also means he planned krusie's destruction 10 years ago, this devious dog
The rest of the thread is here.
tl;dr: Don’t monetize AO3, kids. You won’t like what happens next.
read this thread. this is by far the most concise explanation of a lot of different issues that i’ve seen in fandom spaces in a while. cosigning both the linked thread and the thread about aus/uk/can law that’s linked in-thread.
AHDHXHEBSG TWITTER WRITERS DID WHAT NOW???? AND PEOPLE PAID THEM????
If someone has never taken a class that includes copyright law, they may not know this stuff, so I don’t necessarily blame random people for not knowing what copyright is, but like… maybe just maybe it’s something that should be taught????
Just another reminder, because this always drives me crazy, but even if monetizing your fic was 100% unambiguously legal and protected, AO3 would still not let you do it because AO3 was founded and is supported by people like me who want a fandom community that is completely divested from making money off of fic.
Yes, this. Lots of fanworks on AO3 are unambiguously legal. Fics based on Shakespeare plays and fairy tales and Greek mythology and The Great Gatsby and your original character from your D&D game are not violations of copyright, because no copyright applies to those things.
AO3 still doesn’t let you monetize those things on the site, because we don’t want the site to be commercial! Because that’s not what it’s for!
It’s not there for you (generic you) to make money off the efforts of the people who build and maintain the site for free! We aren’t getting paid for the work we do to give you a nice site to use, just like you aren’t getting paid for the work you do to create whatever art you share there. Because fandom is supposed to be a community where we share with each other, and therefore we all benefit.
The deal is, we give you a free, stable, safe platform to host your works. In exchange, you get a site that isn’t covered in ads and tip jars and links to gofundme and “read the next chapter at my patreon”. You get one goddamn place on the internet that isn’t trying to make money off you. And we will defend that space and keep it non-commercial.
If you want to make money off your fics, you can instead post them somewhere like royal Road. “Oh, but Royal Road’s culture is so much more negative and stressful and lacks the supportive norms of AO3!” Yeah, because people are trying to make money there. Half the userbase is treating it as a storefront and hustling is the natural social consequence of that. AO3’s culture can only exist because it’s not commercial.

Why “High Functioning” Is Being Retired
Autism Feed
yeah, I was diagnosed with high-functioning autism (technically Asperger's Syndrome cuz I'm old) as a kid and all that meant to the people who were supposed to be my support network seems to have been "needs absolutely no support" :/
I can really relate @xxxadgothur
I was fortunately able to get my diagnosis back when I was 12. I was diagnosed with the same thing. Never really got any support though. Guess they thought I didn’t need it. Idk.
It's really fucked up looking back at my childhood and early adulthood and recognizing just how little support I got from my parents. Like sometimes I had therapy and meds but they put zero effort into learning about autism and just spouted off shit about how I have a super power and how I should just be able to force myself to hyperfixate on a subject and get through 4 years of college in 2 years. And if I was struggling and having panic attacks triggered by school, then I should just "try harder."
Anyway, sorry for venting/trauma dumping on your post, I guess I just have to get it out in some way. Love your blog and thank you for spreading info and awareness about autism and ADHD 🫶
The AuDHD struggle is very real 😭
The struggle is very real. Take care. ❤️
wasnt the high functioning low functioning system also apart of a nazi who did eugenics and shit's way to sort autistic people and kill the low functioning autists or am i mistaken
genuine question
…yep. That basically sums it up @lakelight-lily
For anyone curious I found a site explaining everything.
Asperger syndrome is no longer used as a diagnostic term. Historically, it was used to describe some autistic people who did not have a lear
okay but aging is literally a privilege. notice that
i trust you two more than anything
What if it's not a Bakeneko and instead FRIEND is more based on a Cat-Sith? Also shapeshifters. The thing about Cat-Siths is that they only have one fur pattern. The ritual to appease them specifically mentions milk saucers, and they show up during the wake after someone dies, hi Rudy.
I was looking for cat myths related to witches, if only because Wiccabell and Organikk are so Dess & Kris coded to me, with Organikk saying these witches were locked away for being too fun- err, evil. And if Noelle is the owner of the pack of cats Pink mentions, I can see her taking a witch role too. Final Fantasy 7's very own Cait-Sith also comes to mind, because this is the fur pattern.
