Die Fast And Suffer

i have been informed by literally every french speaker on earth that “une pipe” is slang for blowjob

tomorrow i have to give my daughter’s pikachu plushie gender-affirming surgery

I'm just saying, if you're going to worldbuild magic being a "raw, primal force, akin to and interweaving with nature itself" you gotta explain to me why animals don't use it

I know the normal answer is "they just aren't smart enough for it" but idk I've seen enough media where a character uses a spell in a moment of brain-off panic ilI feel like animals could probably stumble into a spell or two like, accidentally

Also how funny would it be to see a completely normal regular bear cast magic missile outta nowhere

Dogs can also cast Magic Missile but every time they do the projectile is shaped like a bone or a stick and they chase after it

group of wizards who ask this in-universe, and after extensive study learn to their surprise that animals are casting spells all the time, just that their magic is so fundamental as to be unrecognizable to humans. turns out the only reason acorns grow on trees is because squirrels keep wishing for them.

When a species becomes extinct humans have to figure out what kind of magic they were doing to keep the ecosystem from becoming out of balance

Today is the anniversary of the death of Jonathan Joss (King of the Hill, Parks and Rec). Jonathan Joss was an Indigenous, gay man who died protecting his transgender husband, on the first day of Pride month. Today we remember him and how he protected his family.

i think rocky and grace should gleefully lie to each other. they're just making shit up all of the time. rocky has no idea which earth traditions are real and which are elaborate jokes for grace's personal amusement. grace is never sure if rocky is teaching him actual eridian gestures or random movements to make him seem insane. do eridians actually have 5 hearts. do humans actually see scary television shows in their sleep. there is NO trust in this relationship. they are fucking with each other constantly

#phm#project hail mary#ryland grace#rocky phm#rocky the eridian#i just keep seeing takes like “rocky can tell when grace is lying” No he can't . he can't . he has no clue . and vice versa#grace [stressed]: hey adrian do eridians all migrate to space for 7 days each year#adrian: stop listening to him. stop. stop it

This is an awesome use of what is probably a master's degree if not a doctorate and I am 100% thrilled that she shared it even though it was embarrassing and she squeaked.

Thank you, adorable scientist, for making people's lives better.

As an Australian, THIS WOMAN IS A FUCKING GODSEND.
