In love with everything I see

I’m still obsessed with the acceleration scene in gate of the feral gods and with the plot thread of the AI’s ongoing sexual harassment of Carl in general. Like, it’s so good in the way that it’s played half as a joke but also really not actually a joke. Sexual harassment as fridge horror. Gate of the feral gods is the first time Carl just straight up refuses to play into the AI’s fetishes, because it makes him uncomfortable and he doesn’t want to—and the AI immediately gets violent with him when he refuses (throws hoards of deadly monsters at him). The AI’s given Carl a lot of perks and a lot of help because of its crush on him, but he’s just not allowed to say no to it. And I think it was very deliberate that this scene was directly preceded by a discussion of Bea’s controlling behavior, and how she abused Carl. God this scene hits so good

UNRESTRAINED SUMMER FUN

I WAS BORN YESTERDAY. I JUST BLEW IN FROM STUPID TOWN. THIS IS MY FIRST RODEO. PLEASE BE PATIENT WITH ME.

*forgets that you kissed my forehead*

ive invented (note: dubious claim) something i call the bear diet which is mostly fruits and vegetables with fish as the main protein source and something like once a month you eat a few hyperprocessed foods of your liking because that is when you, the bear, raid a dumpster in the suburbs

we all need to take better care of our selfs or we might Pass away

The two southern expressions "come Hell or high water" and "God willing and the creek don't rise" describe the exact same event. The only difference is one of them demonstrates a positive, can-do attitude, while the other shows a cringing servility to both floods and divine wrath
