A quote from 'The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida' by Shehan Karunatilaka, printed in black ink on on a white sheet of paper: "You were never claustrophobic despite all that time spent in bunkers and narrow beds and lifelong closets. But, like any reasonable person, you'd like the option of running away, especially when there is plenty to run from."
BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.
Duffer Brothers confirm that Eddie came back as vampire, made out with Steve sloppy style, attended Dustin’s graduation and killed Principal Higgins later that day. It all happened off screen of course, as most things did in season 5 🙂↕️
Steddie was above destiel for number of omegaverse fics in 2025 and I think that’s kinda iconic
MALI oh look at that gorgeous coat. Such a sweetheart
I want to smush his little face, oh my goodness so grumpy indeed
Alien has a deliberate pace: there’s time to introduce the entire scifi world and explain how the crew travels long distances, it shows everyone’s respective job on the ship and how they go about work and interact, it has long leisurely shots, and then the Alien shit happens and it’s still two hours
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
I think it's a bad sign that every major news media outlet has spent days asking whether or not murder is bad and how much child porn is an okay amount
Discord wants to know how you feel about AI.

Oh my goodness the sweet little bean. Her eyes are so pretty! And in theme with her name! Princess Pickle!
there are many resistance actions that are worth going to jail over
posting on bluesky is not one of them!
Hello this is your lawyer speaking -- every day is Shut The Fuck Up Friday!

THE TOE BEANS AND STRETCHES the tiniest of babies omg
Gently requesting any and all pet and/or animal photos you're willing to share. Or whatever brings you the most comfort.
I got fired today and would really, really appreciate any comfort right now.
S5 #Steddie Right before the final battle they both reach a breaking point 💥
#st5 idk seeing Steve cry for the fist time did something to me I know he’s crying himself to sleep on the regular bc all his people moved away and he’s alone again because he needs to be there in case something else happens in Hawkins

How to use your imagination When your party stays at the Inn overnight, what do they eat? If you ever catch yourself wondering that, then you know you've formed an attachment to your characters. With Etrian Odyssey's characters, you only give them a name and a portrait, so no matter how you think of the character, it's technically just your imagination. But even in that case, without your imagination, the character is nothing. For example, a landsknecht who uses an axe might eat his meat with his bare hands and no utensils, but one who wields a sword might prefer a knife and fork at dinner. You might think differently, but... If you can imagine small details like that, you might find that you enjoy this kind of RPG even more. The essence is an RPG is using numbers to make calculated decisions, but if you invest those "numbers" with your own feelings, you can spice up the game a little. Think about this: In your party of five, three characters are dead. Two of them are alive, but they only have a couple of HP left, and no TP. They're certain to die in their next turn, giving you a game over. Number-wise, those characters are useless, but how do you imagine they feel about that? What kind of people are those 2 characters who are about to die? Try to imagine things like that in the brief time before your game ends. Are they a landsknecht and a ronin, who'll die facing the enemy and laughing? Is it a protector, ordering the weak medic to run with his last breath? The game over screen looks the same every time, but in your imagination, it could play out very differently. The game itself isn't that big of a thing; what you imagine for yourself is much more fun. We hope that the player uses this game as a tool, to create dramatic and fun situations in your own minds.
I think a lot about this bit by Kazuya Niinou about how an RPG can be one thing on your screen and another thing in your brain
I don't want gen AI in my software
I don't want gen AI in my phone
I don't want gen AI in my email
I don't want gen AI in my recipes
I don't want gen AI in my safety documentation
I don't want gen AI in my schools
I don't want gen AI in my healthcare
I don't want gen AI in my life
Here's my #SteddieWinterExchange for @undistractiblerave.bsky.social! Vampire Eddie is courting his soon-to-be fiancée, pulling all his romantic moves to woo him!! Steve, on the other hand, just need to discover he's not being hunted and actually SEE whatever's following him and bringing him gifts 😇
Me: I need to get shit together tonight so I can drive straight to mom's after work, but I also want to play BG3, and I also really should shower
Also me: but what if we stayed cozy under the covers all evening and took a cat nap instead
Me, at 10:30 pm, after said Devil's Nap: NOT HELPING
"And in Just seven days, I can make you a man."

I was thrilled to be a part of the #SteddieWinterExchange to make this for @itcanbepalped.bsky.social ! The Harringtons invited Steve’s dear friend Eddie over for the holidays and a little mistletoe went a long way to make Steve and Eddie finally brave enough to touch one another ♥️ #steddie
