He would not be allowed to wear the costume, not because MPs are cheerless killjoys, but because he would be in violation of an ancient law stating no MP is allowed to wear a suit of armor in parliament.

Ao3 version that lets you open the 'director's cut' where I, the author, explain every detail in excruciating detail to you and what it is in reference to.

#it’s called sending me an ask and I tell you way more info than you actually wanted @newbromantics

I need to admit something to the US Tumblrinas. Philadelphia isn't a place to me. It's a cream cheese. You say "philadelphia" or "philly" and I immediately, and exclusively, think of the cream cheese. "Twelve people die in Philadelphia disaster" wow that must've been a Molasses Flood style event

You ever meet someone from London, Ontario, and they'll all intone the same verse: "Second best London in the world"

Secret third Halifax: Halifax, North Carolina

Didn't one of those explode?

they should have named the "friday the 13th" sequels "friday the 14th", "friday the 15th", "friday the 16th", etc. so eventually everyone would be scared Every Day

As long as it's on a Friday.

common advice for social anxiety is to tell yourself "people aren't going to think less of you just because you said something a bit daft" but the thing is. sometimes they will. and you just have to learn to be cool with that and to treat it as a dnd random encounter rather than letting it ruin your whole day

And remember that even if they do they'll probably forget it within a day or two because they have other things to do.

Well, the birthstone is peridot and I think yellow-green is pretty good.

I mean, in some very interesting Technically Correct ways, they didn't actually die? Now, they're very much no longer alive. But the forces involved are such that they didn't get any of the usual cellular processes of death, they simply went from biology to physics in less time than it takes a signal to travel down your optic nerve.

if you go from biology to physics without dying first you don’t go to heaven the uber driver went over this

This suggests the Uber driver was supposed to be the one to drive them there.

and another thing: no child should ever be made fun of for things they love especially by their parents

I had a students who was looking at her tablet before class, and I noticed the screen was COVERED in icons of ao3. I asked her what the fics were- I think it was a manga or anime. She was stunned I recognised them.

This feels wild because yes- have you ever read other hard sci-fi? The point is exploring concepts and ideas, with the characters being mobile cameras for the reader to see through. Asimov never wrote any characters who were not robots, even when the story had no robots in them. I was actually stunned when I read The Lost World and found an early speculative fiction story with great characters and an actual sense of humor. Jules Verne was incapable of writing any characters you didn't want to punch in the face.

Character has 6+ PhDs: they invented an entirely new field of science and decided to take all the honourary degrees that were offered.

dino saurs were not scary monsters they were mamas with eggs and when they drank water they were like fuckk yessss waterrrr
